Provisioning Profiles for In-House Apps
Provisioning profiles (.mobileprovision) authorize the use of in-house apps. For an in-house app to work, the provisioning profile that authorizes it must be installed on mobile devices.
If the provisioning profile that authorizes an in-house app is not bundled in the app archive (.ipa) file, you must upload the profile to Jamf Pro before distributing the app.
If a provisioning profile expires, you can edit the provisioning profile record in Jamf Pro and replace the existing profile with the new version to allow continued use of the app.
Deleting a provisioning profile from Jamf Pro removes it from mobile devices that have it installed.
