Many large companies restrict their users’ installation privileges to avoid inadvertent security breaches, meaning that employees aren’t able to install software on their own computers. For this reason, LastPass admins can download the automated silent installer for macOS and deploy the DMG file (using their desired installation method) across their organization.
Before you begin: Please open the Terminal app on your Mac before proceeding.
- Log in with your email address and master password to access the new Admin Console at https://admin.lastpass.com.
- If prompted, complete steps for multifactor authentication (if it is enabled for your account).
- Go to .
- Select macOS from the drop-down menu.
- Select Automated silent install.
- In the Terminal window, run the following commands for your desired installers:
Browser |
Command |
Safari |
curl -s "https://download.cloud.lastpass.com/mac/installer/safari.sh" | bash |
Google Chrome |
curl -s "https://download.cloud.lastpass.com/mac/installer/chrome.sh" | bash
Note: The LastPass extension for Chrome installer requires administrator account privileges on macOS to access Chrome's install directory.
|
Firefox |
curl -s "https://download.cloud.lastpass.com/mac/installer/firefox.sh" | bash
Note: The LastPass extension for Firefox installer needs Python version 2.7 or later.
|
Note: Some web browser windows may open and provide additional instructions to complete the installation process.
Result: You have installed LastPass using the automated silent installer(s) for macOS.
