Appendix: Configurable Settings

The following table is a complete list of the value types that Jamf Pro dynamically populates based on the JSON Schema manifest that is added to the Applications & Custom Settings payload:

Value Type

Description

Array

This value type is displayed in Jamf Pro as a list of text fields in which you can enter text for the possible values of the key. For example, if the application you are customizing requires you to define a list of networks as values for the Wi-Fi, you can enter the name of each network in your environment as a possible value for each field.

Boolean

This value type is displayed in Jamf Pro as a pop-up menu with the options of "true" or "false". For example, if you need to enable or disable a function or property of an application, you can choose "true" or "false" respectively.

Integer

This value type is displayed as a field in Jamf Pro in which you can enter an integer. For example, you could enter "8" in the text field if the key-value pair defines the days of an event.

Note: Floating point numbers are not accepted (e.g., 8.12.8).

Object

This value type is displayed in Jamf Pro as a list of additional key-value pairs in which you can define additional properties for an application. For example, if the application you are customizing contains complex functions, you can use the object format type to further customize this functionality.

Note: The additional key-value pairs must always be strings.

String

This value type is displayed as a text field in Jamf Pro in which you can enter text. For example, you could enter "Blue" in the text field if the key-value pair defines a color.
