![]() ![]() In this window select Link and paste the in the URL to your web server hosting this file, select save and continue on the previous window Within the sub window select App Application In your AirWatch console select Apps & Books from the left and then Native. I would suggest protecting this still by HTTPS if you can and ensure you have this URL for the next step. Now due to the size limitation of 200mb at the time of writing this you need to upload the DMG that is within the same folder to a web server you clients can see. At this stage, you could rename the DMG file and plist to something nicer reflecting this in here but it’s always best to test this as is first plist file you need to open this up in an editor and change the unattended_install value to true, I am using Xcode that allows me to select yes. You should now see a folder with your application name, go into this and it usually has the please edit me at the end ![]() Once it completes it should ask you to reveal this in finder The application will sit there for a little while whilst it process the PKG file depending on its size as you may want to push the whole suite. Open this and then drag you Adobe Cloud Install PKG file that is in the build folder of your download from Adobe You will now need the VMware AirWatch Admin Assistant which you can get here. Once the package has built, download this if it doesn’t start automatically. It appears that you cannot change this in the main console which would be a nice feature to see in the future. Use a name that will be displayed on AirWatch, for example, I used Adobe Cloud to make it obvious to my users. In this next screen it will confirm the application selected. I did try Adobe Reader but again for some reason the install would fail Select all the options you need within here such as localeįrom here select Photoshop, I know this one works and to be fair most people using the cloud apps will need this. Once in here select create a package and select Managed package. ![]() You can do this by logging into and selecting Packages at the top. One of the first steps to do is generate the installer for Creative Cloud. TLDR2:- I want to keep working on this and see if I can just get the Creative Cloud App so it reduces the install size This then also caused the install to fail in a managed package but you also need to make this a managed install for it to work. TLDR:- Basically you need to create a managed package as the self-service isn’t signed and Apple Gatekeeper blocks this (a few hours wasted here). Want to ghands-on on, head over here to the HOL.If you want to learn more about AirWatch I am going to be doing a series of posts to complment this one or head over here for more information The first point I need to make is I am offering this advice assuming you are correctly licensed for Creative Cloud and you take the relevant steps to ensure it only goes to the intended users despite them needing a registered email to activate the software. I did try and see if this would work with AirWatch natively and well it doesn’t but thankfully digging into some of their code it appears at the time of writing this they are using a Munki backend of which I am quite familiar with. One main application I have always had issues with is Adobe and getting this to package nicely has always been a pain down for various reasons. I have been slowly working on fully automated MacOS build and I came across a bit of a snag with deploying some of the application or rather to my surprise, AirWatch could do apps that are not in the App Store. So this week I have been playing with AirWatch (AKA WorkSpace One) and the latest version.
