# Mac Desktop Installation

###### last updated on: Apr 2, 2024

These are installation instructions for [[:mac]].

The software can be installed and configured by each user through the installer. Alternatively organizations can install and configure the software using commercial provisioning software like JAMF

## Installation by User

To install the cloud drive each user needs:

 * **Installer** - The Nasuni Access Anywhere for Mac Installer can be downloaded from your Nasuni account at  [[https://account.nasuni.com]].
 * **Endpoint** - The endpoint for your Nasuni Access Anywhere installation is the same FQDN you use for the Cloud File Manager.
 * **Account credentials** - Typically your corporate username and password.

##### Step 1 - Install Software

Run the installation package to install the software.

The installer may be run as the regular non-admin user.

##### Step 2 - Change Endpoint

Launch the "Nasuni Access Anywhere" application from the Mac Launchpad. Select the button to change the endpoint.

##### Step 5 - Open Cloud Drive 

Open Mac Finder and navigate under "Locations" to "Nasuni Access Anywhere".

Accept any subsequent permission prompts.


## Enterprise Deployments

Version 2.1 and greater enables IT Administrators to configure the Mac Drive via commercial provisioning software, like JAMF. The available configuration options are:

| Key | Value(s) | Purpose |
| endpoint | https://naa.example.com | API Endpoint for NAA installation |
| restrictEndpoint | true or false | Defines if users can override the default endpoint value. Default false |
| AllowSelfUpgrade | true or false | Defines if automatic upgrade is allowed by the user. Default true |

Customers wishing to deploy these, should deploy these as a Plist-based configuration profile to the end-user devices. 

```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
	<dict>
		<key>endpoint</key>
		<string>https://naa.example.com</string>
		<key>restrictEndpoint</key>
		<false/>
		<key>AllowSelfUpgrade</key>
		<true/>
	</dict>
</plist>
```

This configuration should be pushed to the following Preference Domain:
```
com.vehera.storagemadeeasy.enterprisefilefabric
```

Instructions for installing the above Plist file onto end-user devices will vary by the software you are using. An example of configuration with JAMF can be found here:
