Deploying Jamf Connect via Automated Device Enrollment allows users to log in with Jamf Connect immediately after setting up their device. To deploy Jamf Connect during Automated Device Enrollment, you must add the Jamf Connect profiles and packages to an Automated Device Enrollment profile.

  1. In Jamf School, navigate to Profiles > Automated Device Enrollment Profiles in the sidebar.
  2. Click the macOS profile you want to use to deploy the Jamf Connect profiles and packages.
  3. Click the General tab.
  4. Next to Await final configuration, select the Wait for the configuration to be applied before continuing the Setup Assistant checkbox.
  5. Click the macOS Settings tab.
  6. Next to Setup Assistant, deselect the Prompt user to create an account of type: checkbox.

    By deselecting this checkbox, the user will not create the local user account because Jamf Connect is configured to create primary user local accounts during Automated Device Enrollment.

  7. Next to Administrator, select the Create a managed macOS Administrator account checkbox and do the following:
    1. In the Full Name field, enter the full name of the administrator.
    2. In the Account Name field, enter a name for the administrator account, such as AdministratorName admin account.
    3. In the Password field, enter a password for the administrator account.
    4. Ensure the Show Managed Administrator account in Users and Make the local administrator account MDM-enabled checkboxes are both deselected.
  8. Click the Profiles and packages tab.
  9. Next to Profiles, click +Add and use the pop-up menu to choose each Jamf Connect profile.
  10. Next to In-house macOS packages, click +Add and choose the packages that you want to add from the pop-up menu. The packages you choose depend on the Jamf Connect version you are deploying:

    • If you are deploying Jamf Connect 2.45.1 or earlier, choose JamfConnectLaunchAgent.pkg and JamfConnect.pkg.

    • If you are deploying Jamf Connect 3.0.0 or later, choose SelfService+.pkg and JamfConnectLogin.pkg.

  11. Click Save.
  12. Navigate to Devices > Automated Device Enrollment in the sidebar.
  13. Select the checkbox next to the devices you want to assign the profile to and click Assign profile in the upper right.
  14. In the pop-up dialog, choose the Automated Device Enrollment profile from the Automated Device Enrollment profile pop-up menu and click Assign.

The Automated Device Enrollment profile is deployed to the devices you selected.
