How do you create a payload-free package in JAMF?

The process of creating a payload-free package in JAMF entails creating a package that consists solely of a pre-install or post-install script. This is because such a package does not contain any application or file payload but specifically focuses on executing the provided script during installation. This type of package can be useful for performing specific configurations or actions without deploying any additional software or files.

Using only a script allows administrators to implement custom setup routines, configurations, or automation tasks without needing to bundle in other components. It signifies a targeted use of scripts to apply certain actions during the installation phase, which aligns perfectly with the concept of a payload-free package.

In contrast, the other choices do not properly represent how to create a payload-free package. Simply creating a package without any scripts does not fulfill the requirements, as it still lacks the essential scripting capability for installation tasks. Utilizing an existing payload package will not yield the desired outcome since it inherently comes with an included payload. Disabling all package payload options does not create a valid package; instead, it would lead to an incomplete or unusable package format. Therefore, the emphasis on using only a pre or post-install script is what correctly establishes the creation of a payload-free package in JAMF.
