rootDesktop Alerts Alerting Mechanism

Download Desktop Notifications Client App (MacOS)

You can configure the installer using the options on this page. Changing the options will apply the selected configuration.

User Settings Profile (Optional)

Choose a User Settings Profile (more information on setting these up at User Setting Profiles) that will be applied to the installer. You should only select a User Settings Profile when you want users to be able to manage groups themselves.

Auto Launch Option

Decide whether the app should launch for all users of the computer, or just the user who installed the application.

Groups (Optional)

Select the groups that the devices should be subscribed to the first time the device registers. Note that the “all” or “desktop” group is hardcoded, and all devices will always register for that group. It is not included in this list.

The groups are written to the PLIST file that’s included when you download the installer.
