  • One or more teacher users with login credentials assigned to the teacher user group

Jamf School Student is now set to guest mode. This allows guest access to the library for users to download apps, books, and documents.

  • Jamf School Student installed automatically on student devices that you want to install the profile on. For more information, see Jamf School Student Integration with Jamf School.
