# Workstatus App Installation via MDM Using Ansible

# Workstatus App Installation via MDM Using Ansible
### 1. Overview
This document provides a common procedure for installing the **Workstatus App remotely through MDM using Ansible**.
Using this document, administrators can deploy the Workstatus App to supported operating systems without performing the installation manually on each user system.
### Supported Operating Systems
The following operating systems are currently supported for Workstatus MDM/Ansible deployment:
| **Operating System** | **Visible App** | **Silent App** |
| ---- |
| **macOS 14+** | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/workstatus-visible-app-installation-on-mac-using-mdm-with-ansible-uyhxd7/) | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/workstatus-silent-app-installation-on-mac-using-mdm-with-ansible-yz5nj0/) |
| **Windows 10+** | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/mdm-windows-workstatus-visible-app-installation-guide-1fm7duc/) | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/workstatus-windows-silent-app-installation-via-mdm-using-ansible-13vqneg/) |
| **Ubuntu 22.04 LTS** | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/linux-ubuntu-2204-visible-app-installation-via-ansible-ju2mk4/) | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/workstatus-linux-silent-app-installation-via-mdm-using-ansible-1u044t8/?bust=1788267956361) |
| **Ubuntu 24.04 LTS** | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/linux-ubuntu-2404-visible-app-installation-via-ansible-1yat5lx/) | [Download Link](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/workstatus-linux-silent-app-installation-via-mdm-using-ansible-1u044t8/?bust=1788267956361) |
### 2. Deployment Architecture
The Workstatus App is deployed remotely from a **Linux-based Ansible server** to the user's system.
**Deployment Flow:**
**Ansible Server → MDM/Ansible → User System → Workstatus App**
The Ansible server manages the deployment and executes the required installation process on the target user system.
### 3. Prerequisites
###### 3.1 Server System Requirements
* The server system must be a **Linux-based system**.
* **Ansible** must be installed on the server.
* **SSH/network** connectivity must be available where required.
* The server must be able to communicate with the target user systems.
* Required firewall/network ports must be accessible.
* The administrator must have the required credentials/permissions to install the application.
###### 3.2 Target User System Requirements
Before starting the deployment, ensure that:
* The target system is supported by Workstatus.
* The system is connected to the network.
* Required administrator permissions are available.
* The target system can communicate with the Ansible server.
* The required MDM/Ansible configuration is available.
### 4. Install and Configure Ansible Server
Ansible must be installed and configured on the Linux server before starting deployment.
For Ansible installation and server configuration, refer to:
[Ansible Server Installation & Configuration – Support Document](https://support.workstatus.io/en/article/ansible-server-installation-configuration-support-document-1p86k9d/?bust=1786533782464)
### 
### 5. Configure Target Systems
Before deployment, add the target user systems to the appropriate inventory/configuration file.
The inventory/configuration should contain the information required to connect to the target system, such as:
* Target system IP address or hostname
* Username
* Authentication details
* Operating system
* Workstatus user email
* Required deployment parameters
###### **Example**
* IP Address / Hostname
* Username
* Authentication
* Operating System
* Workstatus Email
**Security Note:** Do not store passwords in plain text where possible. Use SSH keys, Ansible Vault, or another approved credential-management method.
