Setting Recurring Check-In for Computers in Jamf Pro

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Description

The recurring check-in frequency is the interval at which computers check in with Jamf Pro for available policies. The default setting is 'every 15 minutes.'

Changing Your Recurring Check-In Settings

Here are the steps to change the check-in frequency:

  1. In Jamf Pro, click Settings.

  2. In the Computer management section, click Check-in.

  3. Click Edit.

  4. Configure the recurring check-in frequency using the pop-up menu on the pane.

  5. Click Save.

Note: Each computer checks in at the specified interval, starting at the time the setting is applied to the computer. There is also a randomizing factor, so a computer might be prompted to check in 5 minutes before or after the frequency set to vary checkin in times across computers reducing server strain.
