Deploy Cloudflare WARP with FileWave (macOS, iOS, Windows, and Android)

What this recipe deploys

FileWave can deploy Cloudflare WARP applications and their vendor-supplied managed configuration across macOS, Windows, iOS, and Android.

Third-party software
Cloudflare WARP is not a FileWave product. Use the current Cloudflare managed-deployment documentation as the authority for installers, configuration keys, and supported values.

Requirements

• Cloudflare PKG and/or MSI installer for managed computers
• Apple Apps and Books (VPP) access for iOS
• Managed Google Play access for Android EMM
• Configuration values for your Cloudflare Zero Trust organization

Download current desktop installers from the Cloudflare WARP download page. The examples below show how those vendor artifacts map into FileWave.

Platform workflows

Pilot each platform separately because its installer, managed-configuration format, and app-store path differ.
