I haven’t seen any worklets like that created already. Looks like Sophos does have some instructions for bulk installs via script, so the code from here might be something you can run through a worklet:


https://support.sophos.com/support/s/article/KB-000035049?language=en_US

We have a split shop (Lenovo’s and macs) with Sophos that we’ve pushed to Catalina devices using Automox worklets with the scripts that Sophos provides when you log into Sophos central you should be able to find them in the protect devices > installation options area.

Keep in mind Sophos on Catalina causes pop-ups “full disk access required” so you’ll want to move some of the Sophos packages into the full disk if you’re deploying to Catalina.

Here’s the Sophos KB: Here’s a kb for that: https://support.sophos.com/support/s/article/KB-000039014?language=en_US

These are what needs to be moved, I think that KB got altered but this is what’s working for us to prevent the popup:

1. Sophos Endpoint UIServer



2. SophosAgent



3. SophosAntiVirus



4. SophosAutoUpdate



5. SophosCleanD



6. SophosScanAgent



7. SophosServiceManager



8. Sophos Diagnostic Utility

Hi @cfrieberg,

Thank you for the worklets. We are also in hybrid network (Dell & Mac) and we are serverless company. All cloud services. Let me try this worklets and i will give feedback if works.

Hi @cfrieberg,

The Key that i need to insert to the URL is the API generated in Sophos API Token Management in Sophos Central, is this correct? Please advise.

Thanks!

I’m looking into this - might need a day or two, I’ll reply back once I have the answer.

I misspoke on here @uapilado - That is the token for your central subestate that is not the api key.


I would reach out to your sophos rep to get that.

@uapilado - Go to Account Details in the upper right hand corner. Go to the Sophos Support section and you’ll see the unique ID

The unique ID for this Sophos Central account is:

Thank you Chief @cfrieberg… I found the sophos unique key. Let me try this worklets.

If that doesn’t work, you can get it in the browser dev tools… hover over that zip file and you’ll see it

Right click, copy url
