Is there a way to remove multiple computers at once from Jamf Protect?

I cannot find a way to delete multiple at once and it seems pretty unreasonable to delete hundreds of old computers 1 by 1...

Create smart group for the devices you want to delete.

click on group to see list

click on action

select delete computers

 


Hey! @JKingsnorth 

The answer provided by @jamf-42 is related to Jamf Pro and will not remove devices from Jamf Protect.
Jamf Protect does not provide a method yet to batch delete computers at once, however you can use the GraphQL API to remove multiple devices at once.

One method is using a script from our Open Source repository which you can find here.
https://github.com/jamf/jamfprotect/blob/main/jamf_protect_api/scripts/python/interactively_list_and_delete_computers_by_last_checkin.py

But even better is making use of the following SwiftUI application that also interacts with the Jamf Protect GraphQP API.

This utility allows you to delete multiple computers in a single click or even from a specific date.

Hopefully this helps!
