JumpCloud’s PKG hosting feature only accepts a signed .pkg that contains an .app bundle. The Proximos Settings PKG and the Launch Agent PKGs do not meet this requirement — they install a plist, not an application — and will fail JumpCloud’s validation if uploaded as software packages. For this reason, Proximos deployment in JumpCloud is handled entirely through Device Management → Commands for the application, settings, and launch agents, with the PPPC profile deployed separately as a Custom Configuration Profile.

​
Deploying the Proximos Application

  1. In JumpCloud, go to Device Management → Commands → + Command After Agent Install.
  2. Set the Command Type to Mac, and set Run As to root.
  3. Paste the contents of Install or Update Proximos.sh into the command body.
  4. Associate the command with your target Mac Device Group(s).
  5. Click the Save button.

​
Deploying Proximos Settings

  1. In JumpCloud, go to Device Management → Commands → + New Command.
  2. Set the Command Type to Mac.
  3. Paste the contents of Deploy Proximos Settings.sh (with your settings values pre-filled) into the command body.
  4. Set Run As to root.
  5. Set Event to Run as Repeating, set Command Repeats By to Week, and select your desired day(s).
  6. Associate the command with your target Mac Device Group(s).
  7. Click the Save button.
Note: A settings file deployed this way lands in /Library/Preferences/ and can be deleted by a local administrator. We recommend scheduling this command to run on every check-in to ensure the file is always present.

​
Deploying the Proximos PPPC Profile

  1. In Proximos, go to Settings → Extras → Export Full Profile and save Proximos PPPC Profile.mobileconfig.
  2. In JumpCloud, go to Device Management → Policy Management → + New Policy.
  3. Select Mac as the platform, then search for and select MDM Custom Configuration Profile.
  4. Upload the Proximos PPPC Profile.mobileconfig file.
  5. Assign the policy to your target Mac Device Group(s) and activate it.

​
Deploying the System Launch Agent

Because the Standard and Headless Launch Agent PKGs do not contain an .app bundle, they will fail JumpCloud’s PKG validation and cannot be deployed through Software Management. Deploy the corresponding script instead — Deploy Proximos System Launch Agent.sh or Deploy Proximos System Headless Launch Agent.sh — as a Command, following the same steps as above with Run As: root. See About the System Launch Agent for guidance on choosing between them.
