    macOS

    DMG, PKG, or APP (zipped)

    If the DMG file contains an APP file, Workspace ONE UEM moves the APP file to the /Applications folder. If the DMG contains a PKG or MPKG file, extract the file from the DMG and push the PKG or MPKG directly.

    Workspace ONE UEM supports installing and managing .app files as internal applications which provide additional control for removing apps upon unenrollment.

    RunUse the manifest to run an application. This is accomplished using command lines.

    The Run command must use the syntax of "\[full file path]". For example, \program files\program.exe.

    You must select the context of the command. Select whether the command runs at the system level, the user level, or the admin account level.

    Note: With macOS devices, you can run any root command that you normally use within Terminal. The Omnissa Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub automatically appends sudo before running any command.
    UninstallUninstall a program or application on the device. You must enter the application name.

    Note: The Uninstall Manifest is for deleting files when a product is removed. If you remove a product from a device, any files installed remain on the device until uninstalled using an Uninstall Manifest.
  2. When finished adding actions to the Manifest, select Save.
