Before you start

To stream Jamf Pro data into Oomnitza, you must have the following:

Jamf credentials

For details on how to Add your Jamf credentials to Oomnitza, refer to Adding Jamf credentials.

Read-only privileges 

The Jamf Enrollment Asset Load uses the Device Enrollment Devices API which retrieves a list of devices assigned to a specific Enrollment ID. To use the asset load, you need at least read-only access to Device Enrollment Program instances. Refer to Jamf Developer Documentation: Privileges and Deprecations.

Jamf domain

To save you time when creating multiple integrations and workflows, you can follow these steps to add the Jamf domain as a global variable in Oomnitza:

1. Follow the steps in Adding global settings.
2. In the Key field, input Jamf.Domain
3. In the Value field, enter the full URL of your Jamf Pro instance, such as https://<instance_name>.jamfcloud.com

Alternatively, you can manually enter the full URL of your Jamf Pro instance when creating the integration.

Jamf Enrollment ID

Your Jamf Enrollment ID. An Enrollment ID is an identifier assigned to groups of enrolled devices in Jamf. The first group of enrolled devices has an Enrollment ID of 1, with the ID increasing by 1 for every new group added. For testing purposes, it is recommended that you use an Enrollment ID of 1. You can obtain your correct Jamf Enrollment ID using the Jamf Read all sorted and paged Device Enrollment instances API.
