Activation profiles are used to enroll devices with the Jamf Security Cloud.

Activation profiles are distributed alongside the Jamf Trust app and define which security capabilities and settings are enabled on devices.

Best Practice:

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 Jamf Security Cloud.

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