Jamf App Catalog Integration

[gonzague]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Not really a "problem" but it would be great to be able to monitor the ongoing installation of apps from the Jamf App Catalog on devices and maybe (until a timeout) not quit the app until they're installed

Describe the solution you'd like
Have a trigger or detection linked to Jamf App Catalog

Describe alternatives you've considered
No idea yet

This may be fairly difficult to implement. Jamf App Catalog installers use MDM commands that can arrive on the machine in any order at any time (due to the use of APNS) and use the MDM Install Application method to install.

Please upvote this Jamf Feature Request: https://ideas.jamf.com/ideas/JN-I-27306
The binary needs to be updated so that SYM can call upon the commands to install App Installers.

Thanks, @gonzague.

As we're hosted on-prem, the Jamf App Catalog isn't an option for us, which makes coding a Feature Request we won't / can't use in production rather challenging.

(I'll leave this open for the community members who are coding-inclined.)

I would also like a way to simply execute a Mac App from Jamf catalog. This would provide a scriptless, non-3rd party solution to deploy the newest PROD release.

I was thinking in my head maybe SYM-HELPER catching not just available policies to execute but Mac-Apps to call out and then it imports to the Setup-Your-Mac script.
