Is Jamf capable of reporting what monitors and external devices are connected to Macs? If not, is there a 3rd party app that is capable of this?



Thanks!

@Sims_ There's no functionality built in to Jamf Pro to report that info, but you could write an Extension Attribute to use the system_profiler tool to gather data on what's connected.


@sdagley Thanks for the suggestion.



system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType


This was just what I needed^^


Thanks, I am also facing the same issue. Thanks for this thread. Monitors and other things that are connected to mac is now visible. Thanks.


AM i missing something, i have the extension attributes but seems not to be working
How should the workflow look like?


Sorry for the ignorance but can someone detail the script to enter into an Extension Attribute so it will pull the info? Entering the above into Terminal on a machine works but I need to put that in an Extension Attribute so it will populate into the computer inventory.
