Deploying AutoCAD for Mac with license

[Anonymous]

Hi all,
I'm new in this forum and I need your aid for deploy AutoCad on some Macs. We use Jamf to deploy all Macs and we can manage Office and Adobe software and licensing. Can someone suggest me the right way to deploy AutoCad an his license an a large fleet of Macs?

Hey dude. Autodesk don't support it. However saying that, there are ways to get it deployed, if you're using network licensing. I'd recommend that you hit up the Macadmins Slack instance, and join the #autodesk channel: https://macadmins.herokuapp.com. You can find me there as "wegotoeleven".

I know this post is a year old and you probably don't need this anymore but you can create a dmg installer in Composer by capturing the install and then add the package and a script to register the license to a policy in Jamf.  Check the FUT and FEU options for the dmg and set the script priority to "After".  Use the script to run the AdskLicensingInstHelper file to set the license server or serial number information.  Here's what I put in my script for my standalone license deployment (obviously change the product key, version, and serial number to whatever yours is).

/Library/Application\ Support/Autodesk/AdskLicensing/Current/helper/AdskLicensingInstHelper register --prod_key 777M1 --prod_ver 2021.0.0.F --config_file /Library/Application\ Support/Autodesk/Adlm/.config/ProductInformation.pit --eula_locale "US" --lic_method STANDALONE --serial_number xxx-xxxxxxxx
