Setup Manager v1.1beta

[scriptingosx]

New Features

• new action waitForUserEntry which allows for two-phase installation workflows in Jamf Pro. When Setup Manager reaches this action it will wait for the user entry to save the data entry, then it will run a recon/Update Inventory. Policy actions that follow this, can then be scoped to data from the user entry. (Feature Request: wait on user to enter in building / department information #11)
• Setup Manager can now run over Login Window, instead of immediately after installation. This also allows Setup Manager to work with AutoAdvance. Use the new runAt key in the profile to determine when Setup Manager runs (Feature Request: Any chance this could be configured to run over the login window? #18)
• data from user entry, is now written to a file when Setup Manager submits data. See details in User Entry (Feature request: Store finish timestamp of successful completion of JSM #9)
• use token substitution in the title, message, and action label values (as well as computerNameTemplate)
• token substitution can extract center characters with :=n
• localization in the configuration profile has been simplified. The previous method still works, but is considered deprecated. Details

Fixes and improvements

• icons using symbol: that end in .app now work properly
• Elapsed time is shown in "About this Mac…" Start time is shown with option key
• svg and pdf images used for icons should now work
• general fixes in user entry setup
• improved rendering in Help View (Help window rendering issues #12)
• fixes to json schema
• improved and updated documentation
• included Installomator script updated to v10.6
• added Setup Manager version and macOS version and build to tracking ping
• fixed UI glitch in macOS Sequoia

Does running at the login window work with Jamf Connect? I've added the runAt key and set it to loginwindow but it won't launch.

[TechTrekkie]

OK so that seemed to work, however, when Setup Manager gets to the step to install Jamf Connect, it kills setup manager, the screen goes back for about 20 seconds and then the Jamf Connect login screen appears.

actually scratch that.... setup manager isnt launching at the login window right after setup assistant, but if I reboot then it will launch when it gets back to the login screen.

experiencing the same issue as the comment above, setup manager when set to runAt loginwindow does not start unless the machine is rebooted after setup assistant. No jamf connect being installed, just a local admin account via the prestage.

What does /Library/Logs/Setup Manager.log say?

[sbickfo2]

Here is what the logs say when enrollment finishes and I just log into the machine, I can also get the setup manager logs after rebooting when setup manager actually starts if that would help

Hello,
I don't understand why the pngs are not read.
I put them in the configuration profile. They are well loaded with a pkg.
