If its the one I'm thinking about, its not in the Discussions, its under the Feature Request section. See if this was it:

https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/featureRequest.html?id=751

Use the Terminal to run:

/Library/Application Support/JAMF/bin/jamfHelper.app/Contents/MacOS/jamfHelper -help

Buttons can return all sorts of nifty things.

This one? https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/featureRequest.html?id=751

Thanks everyone!

Really clunking heads on the way to that answer, weren't we?

lol, yeah, I think that was record. 3 posts to the answer within a 1 minute window.

Hi Everyone,

I wrote this as proof of concept for a few people in the past of a way of end user interaction. It is bash script that calls Applescript to display a yes or no GUI box and then does something based on what the user clicks on. Obviously, everything here is a place holder. You could change it up to run custom trigger policies, or call the JAMF binary to display messages. Tons of different application here.

code example:

#!/bin/bash



# proof of concept AppleScript interaction to end user in bash



theAnswer=$(/usr/bin/osascript <<AppleScript

tell application "Finder"

 activate

 display dialog "Do you want to know the meaning of the universe?" buttons {"No","Yes"} default button 2

  if the button returned of the result is "No" then

   set theAnswer to No

  end if

end tell

AppleScript)



/bin/echo "${theAnswer}"



if [[ ${theAnswer} == "no" ]]



  then /bin/echo "They obviously have read the Hitcherhiker's Guide and know it is 42"

  else /bin/echo "The Answer is 42"

fi



exit 0

If you run this, it will echo out a response in terminal, just as a proof of concept of it running a command under the hood.

Please use at your own risk and make sure you test this a ton before putting it into production.

Thanks,
Tom

The only issue with that method is that Applescript will time out after 2 minutes. You can put a "giving up after 60" then put the pop-up window in a loop until it gets a response, but if the user walks away from the machine and the screensaver is enabled, then applescript will pause and eventually time out after 2 minutes even if you specify a longer time-out period.
