Create a Device Level Windows Self Service App Catalog Policy

Use the Windows Self Service App Catalog policy to control which devices can access the Self Service App Catalog from the JumpCloud Windows Tray App. By default, the catalog is visible to all users. Apply this policy to hide the catalog on specific devices or device groups.

Prerequisites:

• Windows devices running Windows 10, 11 or later.
• Supported editions: Pro, Enterprise, Education.
• The JumpCloud agent v2.153.5 must be installed and running on Windows devices. See Install the Windows Agent and JumpCloud Agent Compatibility, System Requirements, and Impacts.

Considerations:

• If this policy is not applied, the catalog is shown by default.
• Hiding the entire JumpCloud Windows Tray App with the JumpCloud App Controls policy also prevents users from opening the Self Service App Catalog. See Hide Windows Tray App Using a Policy.
• To apply a policy to a device, the device must be running on a supported OS. Before you assign a policy, follow the instructions in Get Started: Devices.
• To apply a policy to a group of devices, you must define device groups. Before you assign a policy, follow the instructions in Get Started: Groups.
