Jamf Title Editor - Update any software using Jamf Pro patch management
Jamf has released the “Title Editor” with one of the latest versions of Jamf Pro. This service, hosted by Jamf, allows patch management in Jamf Pro to be extended to include custom software titles that are not currently available through patch management. This is particularly useful for self-developed applications, as it allows the automatic installation of available updates. It also allows users to quickly determine which version of the software is installed most frequently. Furthermore, this entry can be used in patch management as a target for executing other dependent policies.
Own web interface
The Title Editor can be accessed and maintained via a separate URL. In addition, it offers a clear user interface in which you can find your way around quickly.
Separate user management
The Title Editor has its own user management, which makes it possible to maintain your own software titles even without access to the Jamf Pro GUI. So far it is not possible to connect to an LDAP - since probably only a few people need access to the Title Editor this is negligible.
Updating your own software via Jamf Patch Management
It is possible to create your own software titles manually and to define patch versions. In addition, any existing patch definitions in JSON format can be easily imported and adapted as required.
One title editor for all instances
Once a Title Editor is set up, it can be embedded in any Jamf instance with configured Cloud Connection Services.
Why do I recommend Jamf Title Editor?
With this new service, it is possible to perform all software updates via patch management without having to create separate policies in Jamf. This gives you a better overview of all updates and also allows you to create reports on installed versions in Jamf Pro with one click.
