Deploying Web Clips to Shared iPad in Jamf School

Updated over a month ago

Description

Web clip distribution for shared iPads is different than distribution for 1-1 devices in Jamf School. For shared iPads, web clips/layouts have to be done on a per-class basis. If a user is assigned to multiple classes, they will need to select the class they want when signing in and that layout (with web clips) will apply to the device.

Creating a Web Clip Profile for Shared iPads

  1. In Jamf School, go to Classes and select (or create) a class. There must be at least one student and one teacher user assigned to the class.

  2. Click Apps.

  3. Click Layout and configure as desired, including any web clips.

    • To add a web clip click the Web Clips tab and click Add new Web Clip.

    • Fill out the label, URL and the web clip settings and click either Add and New if you are configuring multiple web clips or Add and Close for one.

  4. Drag the web clip over to the desired location on the layout.

  5. Click Save.

  6. When the user signs into the Shared iPad and selects the class, the layout and web clip(s) will apply.

Note- If web clip is still not appearing, confirm there is not a Blocklist profile installed on the device that is block listing web clips.
