Using QuickAdd-based user-initiated enrollment on macOS High Sierra with Jamf Pro 10.3
Starting with Jamf Pro 10.3, user-initiated computer enrollment now has two modes:
- macOS High Sierra: Uses an MDM profile to enroll the Mac, with the Jamf Pro agent being installed once MDM enrollment is complete.
- macOS Sierra and earlier: Uses a QuickAdd installer package to enroll the Mac, with MDM enrollment and installation of the Jamf Pro agent being handled by the QuickAdd package.
However, it is still possible to get a QuickAdd installer package to enroll a Mac running macOS High Sierra. For more details, please see below the jump.
In order to obtain a QuickAdd package from user-initiated enrollment from a Mac running macOS High Sierra, you will need to enroll using the address shown below:
https://server.name.here:8443/enroll/?type=QuickAdd
Note: The Q and the A in QuickAdd are case-sensitive and must be capitalized.
To enroll with a Jamf Pro using a QuickAdd package on macOS High Sierra, please use the procedure shown below:
1. Go to https://server.name.here:8443/enroll/?type=QuickAdd
2. Enter your username and password, then click the Login button.
3. Click the Enroll button.
4. When prompted to download and install the package, click the Download button.
5. Verify that the QuickAdd downloads.
6. Run the QuickAdd installer.
Note: Enrolling with a Jamf Pro server using a QuickAdd package does not enable user-approved MDM. If this is necessary in your environment, I recommend using the MDM profile method to enroll the Mac in question.
Hi Rich, how does the new User Approved Enrollment affect your Caspercheck script/launch daemon process?
When I try to enroll a HS client with that url it never gives me an option to download. It does the MDM enrollment regardless of /enroll or /enroll/?type=QuickAdd . Any ideas?
Note: https://server.name.here:8443/enroll/?type=MDM will get you the MDM profile enrollment page.
Not impressed with JAMFs new MDM enrollment.
Seems like it is still in alpha/beta phase
Interesting that nothing on JAMF Nation discussed this. Had to reference a third party site
Unfortunately, this QuickAdd package can only be used with the machine you downloaded it on. Looks like you need to use Recon to make a QuickAdd package that you can use on all machines.
