Installing and Updating Apps

A few examples of how you can leverage the Patch CLT to perform installations or updates:

# Install the latest version of Dialpad
sudo patch install dialpad

# Install the latest version of Zoom and skip the version comparison
sudo patch install zoom-us --force

# Install two software titles that are dependent upon each other
sudo patch install cran-r r-studio

# Update Cyberduck to the latest version if installed AND out-of-date, then perform a
# Jamf Pro Inventory Update after successful installation
sudo patch install cyberduck --update-only --recon

# Update Slack to the latest catalog version that is 4.40 or lower
# (catalog versions above 4.40 are skipped — this cannot install an older version)
sudo patch install slack --update-only --max-update-version 4.40

tip

Run patch help install to see all the options for the install subcommand.
