Description
If the AutoAuthenticate key is not configured or set to false, a keychain item for Jamf Connect menu bar is not automatically created during Jamf Connect login user creation and the end user will have to re-enter their credentials in Jamf Connect menu bar.
Note - In this article, Jamf Connect menu bar refers to settings configured with the com.jamf.connect preference domain. It applies to Jamf Connect menu bar versions 2.x, but may also be relevant if using Self Service+ menu bar and/or Self Service+ Account management dashboard.
Setting AutoAuthenticate to True
Set the AutoAuthenticate key to true in the Jamf Connect Menu Bar (com.jamf.connect) configuration profile.

SignIndictionary.<key>AutoAuthenticate</key>
<true/>
If you are using the Application & Custom Settings > Jamf Applications payload, switch the Auto Authenticate field to true.
