VPP-enabled apps are deployed slightly differently to everything else in our Jamf Pro integration workflow.
#Cannot connect to jamf pro server install
The Distribution Method is set to Install Automatically/Prompt Users to Install There are VPP licenses available (i.e on the VPP tab, the value for Total Content is greater than that for In Use) Ideally, there will be no other Limitations or Exclusions applied to the Scope (though it doesn't matter if there are) You have set the Scope such that it will be available to the Specific Computers and All Users (this will then be managed by AppsAnywhere)

If the Mac App Store App does have associated VPP licenses: The Distribution Method is set to Make Available in Self Service You have set the Scope such that it will be available to the devices you want to deploy it to through AppsAnywhere (see note on scope in the 'How It Works' section) If the Mac App Store App has no associated VPP licenses: You have setup the Mac App Store App and it can be found in Jamf Pro under Computers > Computer Management > Mac App Store Apps In summary, you must ensure that your Jamf Pro Mac App Store App meets the following requirements to import it into AppsAnywhere It will need to be set up to be available through the Self Service app before it can be delivered through AppsAnywhere and we strongly recommend that you test the deployment of the Mac App Store App through Self Service before bringing it into AppsAnywhere to help rule out any problems with Jamf Pro itself before adding the additional deployment workflows that AppsAnywhere adds to the process, which can make it more difficult to resolve any issues that may exist. The remainder of this article assumes that you have an Mac App Store App deployment already configured in your Jamf Pro environment.
Whether you are wanting to push out VPP licensed apps or just direct user to the right place in the Mac App Store to get the app they need, you can do this using the Jamf Pro: Mac App Store App delivery method. Non-VPP licensed apps: Have no licensing information and therefore require the user to install the app themselves from the mac app store

VPP licensed apps: Come with an assigned license from Apple's Volume Purchase Program and can be installed automatically for the user There are two types of Mac App Store apps that can be managed through Jamf Pro: It seems completely in the realm of possibility to make this reconnection happen in the background, or at least when the app comes back into focus.Jamf Pro offers a great way to deploy Mac App Store Apps to a user's device. In what possible use case would I NOT want Self Service to reconnect to my Jamf server? I get that Jamf sometimes like to give the control to the user or to IT, but this is one of those cases where I think literally no-one would mind if it did this automagically. I wish Jamf would just change it so it would auto reconnect.
If it has all that information, why not just auto refresh the connection without user intervention? Why involve the end user at all, who likely does not have any idea how things work under the hood? Why show that message, which appears as if something is broken? It seems completely unnecessary to me.
#Cannot connect to jamf pro server how to
I say unnecessary because here’s the thing - whatever function underlies the reconnect button clearly knows how to “reconnect” to the Jamf server, and Self Service clearly knows that the connection to the server needs to be “reconnected”. When this happens the app displays that rather silly and, IMO, unnecessary banner. Think of it like a Kerberos ticket that expires after a period of inactivity. It has to do with the fact that Self Service uses a type of temporary tokenized connection to the Jamf Pro server. There is no way to make that message go away sadly, other than the obvious way of clicking that button.
