  1. The helmut.cloud Agent
  2. Install the helmut.cloud Agent software

MacOS

  • Download the most recent .pkg installer

  • As long as the installer is unsigned, open it with a right-click and choose "Open" from context-menu

  • MacOS will warn you that the installer cannot be verified - choose okay, as we have not signed the installer yet

  • Follow along the installation routine and finish installation

The HCloud.app will be installed into the Applications folder on your Mac.

Set privileges for HCloud.app in System Preferences

To allow HCloud.app access to folders inside your users home like Desktop, Downloads or Documents, you will need to set privileges.

Open System Preferences via the Apple icon in the upper left corner of your Mac. Navigate to "Privacy and Security". Here, you can set granular privileges in Files and Folders or add HCloud.app to Full Disc Access, if your workflow demands it. If you are running HCloud.app unattended, consider to set full disc access to avoid requests blocking your executions.

You should always consider the apps and the OS users privileges in your environment and set them according to your workflows needs and to internal security guidelines.
