Automatically Upload Activation Profiles to Jamf Pro

If you use UEM Connect to integrate Jamf Pro and Safe Internet, you can configure UEM Connect to automatically send the activation profiles to Jamf Pro. This eliminates the need to manually download and upload them between the portals. To configure this feature in the Safe Internet portal, go to Integrations > UEM Connect > UEM server configuration: Configuration profile deployment and enter your Jamf Pro API username and password. Once configured, you can deploy the activation profile from Devices > Activation profiles. For more information, see Configuring UEM Connect for Jamf Pro.

Download the configuration profile in Safe Internet for macOS devices and upload it into Jamf Pro to enable and enforce the settings required for Safe Internet to operate.

  1. In Safe Internet, go to Devices > Activation Profiles.
  2. Select an activation profile.
    Note:

    Jamf provides a pre-configured Activation Profile to use for Safe Internet deployment.

    The default, base web protection policy, which is applied with this pre-configured Activation Profile, blocks the most harmful content and is in line with the minimum, recommended blocked categories for many countries.

  3. In the Managed Deployment area, select Jamf Pro.
  4. Under UEM Configuration Profiles, download the required configuration file for macOS devices.
  5. In Jamf Pro, click Computers in the sidebar.
  6. Click Configuration profiles in the sidebar.
  7. Click Upload .
  8. Choose the configuration profile downloaded previously, and then click Upload.
  9. (Optional) Add a Name, Description or Category, if desired.
  10. Ensure the Distribution Method is set to "Install Automatically".
  11. Click Scope and select the device group to which you want to deploy the profile.
  12. Click Save .
  13. (Optional) If you have a mixed fleet of supervised and unsupervised devices, repeat this process for the other supervision status.

The profile is distributed to the deployment targets in the scope the next time the device checks in with Jamf Pro.

Safe Internet is now applied to target devices which includes the content filtering and network protections configured in the profile.
