Import configuration for Jamf Importer

1-Build Objects/Attributes

Once you completed Source and Destination configurations, now it is time to create Object Types and their relations according to the Jamf Pro data model.

You may also choose to enable or disable Object Schema sharing.

Pro Tip: Commonly, our customers create references from other Object Schemas and are in need of accessing the Jamf data. We recommend enabling the Object Schema sharing.

Click the Build Data Model button.

This needs to be done only one time. When this build is completed successfully you don't need to do it again. You will get a message if you already completed this step.

You may check your new Object Schema now and make sure the Object Types and Attributes are successfully created.

The Object Schema Graph will be as follows:

2- Test Run

You can test the configuration by clicking the Test Run button. This will import the first 100 Computers to your Object Schema. After the test run wait for a few minutes for the process to finish and check your Object Schema.

You may click the Check Test Import Status button to check the import execution status.

3- Import Run / Schedule

If you are happy with the results of the test run, please choose an option for a final run from below. The maximum number of records you can import is 1000 by default. You can update this value from the Admin tab.

You have 3 options.

Option 1: Import Run

Use this option to execute a full Jamf import manually.

Pro Tip: Please note that if you have a large number of records, this import will take time. We suggest testing it outside of the busy hours when JSM is not used heavily.

Option 2: Enable Daily Import Scheduling

When enabled, the import will run once a day.

Option 3: Enable Hourly Import Scheduling

When enabled, the import will run once an hour.
