Jamf Pro

Jamf Pro connects your managed Apple device (computer) inventory into Navigator.

Beta. This connector was built from Jamf Pro’s documentation and hasn’t been verified against a live account yet. It may return incomplete data or fail in ways we haven’t seen. If something looks wrong, contact [email protected].

What data this connector provides

  • Devices: managed computer inventory, including hostname, serial number, model, operating system name and version, MAC address (including a secondary network interface, where present), disk encryption (FileVault) status, RAM, and storage capacity.
  • The email address of the user assigned to each device, where Jamf Pro has that association, so it can be cross-referenced against your other identity sources.

Known limitations

  • This connector only covers computer inventory. Jamf Pro’s own directory of end users is a separate, older part of its API whose data hasn’t been confirmed to represent real end users rather than internal admin accounts, so it isn’t imported as a standalone Users list. The device-to-user email association above is still available.
  • Windows feature-update-level detail (for organizations managing Windows machines through Jamf Pro) isn’t broken out beyond the reported OS version string.
  • This connector was built from Jamf’s published API reference rather than tested against a live instance. If you notice a field that looks wrong or missing, let us know so it can be corrected against real data.
