Jamf Self Service for macOS URL Schemes
URL schemes provide a way to directly reference resources within Jamf Self Service for macOS. You can configure URL schemes to do the following actions in Self Service:
-
Install an item made available in Self Service
-
Direct users to the description of an item made available in Self Service
-
Direct users to specific Self Service categories
-
Direct users to the History or Notifications tabs
-
Direct users to the Compliance Remediation page
Once configured, you can provide the URL schemes to your users (e.g., via email or a webpage). Clicking the URL scheme on a computer prompts Self Service to open.
You can create as many URL schemes as needed using the templates in the table below:
