Hey Community, 

Has anybody put in place a script that is used in a policy so it can display computer info and this through Jam's self service?  

Any input is much appreciated! 

Thanks.

It uses Applescript, so doesn't rely on a 3rd party app being deployed. An oldie but a goodie.

I'm using Bill Smiths solution, with some modifications. Some stuff we didn't need, other stuff we wanted.  It works quite well, but for that far away point in where I have more cycles to waste on side projects I have it on my to do list to switch to Swift Dialogs so we can get a consistent user experience.
