Requirements

An identity provider must be integrated with your Jamf Security Cloud portal. For more information, Identity Provider Integrations in the Jamf Security Cloud Setup Guide.

  1. In Jamf Security Cloud, navigate to Devices > Activation profiles.
  2. Click Create profile.
  3. On the Capabilities and routing page, select the Network access service capability and then click Next.
  4. On the User identification page, confirm which IdP connection to use for the activation profile and then click Next.
  5. On the Advanced settings page, specify additional settings for the profile, such as the profile's expiration date.

    Available settings depend on which service capabilities you selected for the activation profile.

  6. On the Naming and grouping page, enter general information about the profile:
    1. Enter a descriptive name for the activation profile.
      Best Practice:

      Use descriptive names and a consistent naming convention for all activation profiles in your environment.

    2. Choose a device group to associate with the profile.
      Devices that use the activation profile to enroll are automatically added to this group in the Jamf Security Cloud portal.
      Note: If UEM Connect is configured, this group is overwritten during the next UEM Connect sync.
  7. On the Review page, confirm the details of the activation profile and then click Save and create.

The activation profile is available in the Jamf Security Cloud portal.

You can now configure or review your access policy for devices and prepare for distributing the activation profile and Jamf Trust app.
