Hi
Using JumpCloud i am trying to automate the Netbird app on MacOS
this seems to work just fine except the install of the package.
it seems that the default parameter is "upgrade" and only then "install"
meaning when i first deploy it on a MAC a pop up appears to select the application to upgrade (with "where is NetBird?" displayed)
once i close this window, the install proceed and finished just fine.

  1. first i download the package to the /tmp/netbird.pkg file
# Fetch the URL of the latest package file 
pkg_url=$(curl -sIL -o /dev/null -w '%{url_effective}' https://pkgs.netbird.io/macos/arm64) 

# Download the package file 
curl --silent -o /tmp/netbird.pkg "$pkg_url" 

# Get the currently logged-in user #
logged_in_user=$(stat -f "%Su" /dev/console)

using @lixmal suggestion i added these lines

cat << EOF > /tmp/choice.xml
<?xml
 version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<installer-gui-script minSpecVersion="1">
    <pkg-ref id="io.netbird.client_arm64"/>
    <choices-outline>
        <line choice="default">
            <line choice="upgrade">
                <pkg-ref id="io.netbird.client_arm64"/>
            </line>
            <line choice="install">
                <pkg-ref id="io.netbird.client_arm64"/>
            </line>
        </line>
    </choices-outline>
    <choice id="default" title="Install"/>
    <choice id="upgrade" title="Upgrade"/>
    <choice id="install" title="Install"/>
</installer-gui-script>
EOF
  1. install the package on the client
#curl -fsSL https://pkgs.netbird.io/install.sh | sh  # this installs the "NetBird ui" app which doesnt work good.
#installer -pkg "/tmp/netbird.pkg" -target /  ## this pop up the window
installer -pkg "/tmp/netbird.pkg" -target / -applyChoiceChangesXML /tmp/choice.xml

the -applyuChoiceChangesXML parameter seems to be the correct way but i get that the file is malformed.

the creation of the /etc/netbird/config.json file
and

cat << EOF > /etc/netbird/config.json

Run a command as the logged-in user


sudo -u "$logged_in_user" open -g "/Applications/Netbird UI.app"

the config.json and opening the app works just fine.
the only issue is the popup window

@ez1976 is this still an issue for you in recent NetBird versions?
