Jamf School with SSO facilitates seamless learning.

Seamless access to Jamf School with Jamf Account SSO integration

At Jamf, we’re committed to making your experience smooth and efficient. That’s why we’re excited to share an update on Single Sign-On (SSO) integration for Jamf School.

Introducing Jamf Account SSO integration

We know some users have encountered additional login steps recently, and we appreciate the feedback. The good news? Jamf School now fully supports Identity Provider (IdP) integration via Jamf Account, creating a more seamless SSO experience across all Jamf products.

What is Jamf Account and how does it relate to authentication?

Jamf Account is a central hub at account.jamf.com where you manage your organization's settings and user information. While you can log in to Jamf Account, it’s not an authentication method itself. Think of it as a management console rather than a login credential—users don’t have “a Jamf Account.” Instead, they log in with Jamf ID or through an identity provider connected via Jamf Account.

Jamf Account also provides access to Jamf Nation for community support, Jamf Training to develop skills and earn certifications and new services such as Blueprints. SSO support is part of our future rollout to enhance your experience.

What does this mean for you?

  • New customers: If you're setting up SSO for the first time, you can now configure your IdP directly through Jamf Account.

For detailed guidance, check out this support page.

What to expect with the new login experience

Jamf School login will now require:

  1. Enter your email address on the new login page (your browser may save this, depending on your settings).

  2. Confirm your email address and enter your password on the next page. This workflow ensures proper integration with your chosen IdP.

Note: This feature has been rolling out since March 2025. All users now have access to configure Single Sign-On.

Best practices for logging into Jamf School

To ensure the best experience, access Jamf School through your school or partner instance URL (e.g., nameofinstance.jamfcloud.com).

⚠️ Using login.jamfschool.com may require entering your password twice.

We appreciate your patience and are confident that this integration will improve security and usability. If you have questions or need assistance, reach out to our support team.

Happy managing with Jamf School!
