# macOS 15 Sequoia system extensions configuration file

This flow details how to deploy the Cortex XDR agent on macOS 15 Sequoia endpoints using the Palo Alto Networks system extensions configuration file.

When applying the configuration profile on older OS versions, and then upgrading to macOS 15 Sequoia, some fields may not be propagated properly due to known macOS issue. We recommend creating a smart/dynamic group of machines running macOS 15 Sequoia, and applying this profile only to this group.

1. If this has not been done previously, follow the instructions for installing the unified configuration profile to your MDM tool. [Install with a unified configuration profile for MDMs](/cortex-xdr-agent/8.5-eol/cortex-xdr-agent-for-macos/install-the-cortex-xdr-agent-for-mac/install-with-a-unified-configuration-profile-for-mdms.md)
2. Download the signed or unsigned system extensions configuration profile.
   * [Download the signed configuration profile](https://docs-cortex.paloaltonetworks.com/v/u/CortexXDR_SystemExtensionsSequoia_V1_SignedPANW.mobileconfig) (CortexXDR\_SystemExtensionsSequoia\_V1\_SignedPANW\.mobileconfig)

3. Create a smart/dynamic group of machines running macOS 15 Sequoia in your organization.
4. Upload/install the profile, and add this smart group to the profile’s targets.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xdr-agent/8.5-eol/cortex-xdr-agent-for-macos/install-the-cortex-xdr-agent-for-mac/macos-15-sequoia-system-extensions-configuration-file.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
