Considerations for Activation Profile Management

  • Use descriptive names and a consistent naming convention for all activation profiles in your environment.

  • Most activation profile settings cannot be edited after creation. To update security capabilities and settings on devices, unenroll devices by uninstalling the Jamf Trust app and deleting the device record from Safe Internet.

  • Security capabilities available during activation profile creation depend on whether your organization subscribes to Jamf Protect, Jamf Connect, or both.

  1. In Safe Internet, navigate to Devices > Activation profiles.
  2. Click Create profile.
  3. Enter a activation profile Name and choose a Device Group.
    To create a new group, enter a new group name rather than choosing an existing group.
    Note:

    Groups can be used to create different policies for different users.

    If your UEM integration is already configured, any Device Group that you select from the drop-down list will be rewritten during a UEM sync, according to the Group Mapping policy defined.

  4. (Optional) If you use other tools in your DNS environment, you can select Enable network compatibility mode to create an activation profile with no DNS filtering. Note that DNS-based threat prevention features (e.g., enforcement for Google Safe Search and YouTube Restricted Mode) will be disabled when using this option, so make sure your existing DNS security solutions provide adequate threat protection before proceeding.
  5. On the Review page, confirm the details of the activation profile and then click Save and create.
You can now deploy the activation profile to devices, which enables Jamf Safe Internet.
