I'm wondering if there is a way to bring up a GUI (jamfhelper, cocoadialog, etc) to give a device an already created EA. As mentioned, the EA is created, I just need a way for a technician who is setting up the computer to assign it to the right EA so that it drops into scope for some policies to run based on the EA. The EA I created has the following characteristics: Data Type: String, Input Type: Pop-Up Menu . I then have a few items in the dropdown to choose. I'm hoping to be able to assign one of those dropdown items directly from the computer.

I'm not actually having a problem with something but I was playing around with being able to find a substring from the output of a variable. I can't get this to give me the expected result. #!/bin/zsh proc=$(system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | grep "Chip:" | /usr/bin/awk '{print $2,$3,$4}') echo $proc if [ "$proc" = *"M2"* ]; then echo "M2 processor installed" else echo "unknown" fi The correct result should be "M2 processor installed". I get "unknown".  I looked up how to do this and found this site: https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-check-if-string-contains-substring-in-bash/ After reading that site I changed my conditional statement to match the syntax in the article. #!/bin/zsh proc=$(system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | grep "Chip:" | /usr/bin/awk '{print $2,$3,$4}') echo "$proc" if [[ "$proc" = *"M2"* ]]; then echo "M2 Processor installed" else echo "unknown" fi This works. The only change I made was to use "[[ ]]" instead of "[ ]". I have written a lot of conditi

Hi!Our middle schoolers are 1 to 1 w/ iPads and are able to add apps from Self Service and delete apps not needed. This helps them to self-manage free space on their devicesIs there a way using an app configuration to prevent deletion of one specific app?we already have this box UNCHECKED but it does not prevent the app from being deleted (🫤): “Allow users to remove app (iOS 14 or later) Allows the user to remove this app from a device. The app is not removed from the App Catalog in Jamf Pro.”Thanks!sandy 

I've read a previous post that stated to reset the PRAM/NVRAM, which did not work. Here's the error:Things we have tried.Reset NVRAM/PRAMUn-assigned from ABM then Re-assiged.

I need help with a script to change computer name. I am using the DEPNotify Starter 2.0.1 script. I am using the Popup 3 label for the list of University Campus, Popup 1 label for the building, and would like to use the last seven of the serial number. If Campus is New York, and the building is Central Hall and the serial number of machine is 1234567, I would like that translated to NYCH1234567 I am currently using the script as a policy in DEPNotify policy array with a custom trigger. I would like to make it that as the User/Tech selects their Campus and the Building the device is assigned to, that it will use that as part of the computer naming along with the 7 digits of the serial number. !/bin/shset serial variableserial=/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | /usr/bin/awk '/Serial Number (system)/ {print $NF}'appendserial=echo "${serial:5}"fordhamname=APPLE${appendserial}/usr/sbin/scutil --set ComputerName "${apple}"/usr/sbin/scutil --set Loc

When did the Jamf ID password policy change?I could not log in to my jamf account today.It looks like the password needs to be changed to at least 15 characters and include upper and lower case letters and numbers. Thanks.

We have had a cloud instance for a while now, and we've only been managing machines in our region, we're taking over the management for another region soon, and would like to use Sites to manage those. Having created a new site, one for ourselves and one for the other region, I see that all existing config, devices, policies and settings fall under the Full Jamf Pro default site. We haven't yet added any settings for the new region or any machines, so right now I'd just like to move all existing data into the site created for our region. Does anyone have a checklist of all the things that need to be attributed to a site? Or any other clever ways of doing this?   

Hi,We are having a weird issue in our environment. Few users are not able to complete Intune registration. While triggering Intune registration from self service app, Company portal is prompting for authentication in a loop. After 3 times, it would eventually fail.troubleshooting tried so far:-Deleted device from AAD-Deleted device from Intune-Removed company portal cache and also re-installed company portal app-Deleted the device from JAMF, removed MDM profile and re-enrolled the devicePer sign-in logs in AAD, there is a success for company portal sign-in. Just wondering if you have experience similar issue ? Any troubleshooting would be helpful. Thanks! 

How does one go about calling data from the JSS for use in BASH scripts? For example, I have the following code: /System/Library/CoreServices/ManagedClient.app/Contents/Resources/createmobileaccount -n $username -h /Users/$username -S -v For $username I would it to equal "Username" from a targeted computer within JSS> ComputerName> User and Location> Username. My use case would be for users of Casper Remote who were to migrate Network managed users to Local managed users. They would select the target machine within Casper Remote and a script that basically performs the above. They don't really need to lookup who the user is because JSS knows what user this computer belongs to. So for them, this process is very easy because I am leveraging JSS's database.

In the computer lab where I work, we use a generic student user account for all students on our Mac computers, and for privacy reasons, all web browsers are set to run in private "incognito" mode. Recently, with the introduction of the new Microsoft Teams (Work or School) app, I observed a couple of issues related to user logins. First, users could automatically be logged in by simply clicking their names on the splash screen when Teams loaded. Second, sometimes a Teams user would remain logged in even when the macOS user had logged out. To address these issues, I conducted some research and found that Microsoft's recommended solution is to delete Teams login information from the keychain. However, they do not specify which keychain entries need to be removed. After spending some time investigating, I identified the keychain entries related to Teams. It's worth noting that some of these entries are stored in the "Login" keychain, while others are stored in the "Local Items" k

First Post!Started a new MacBook Pro from Prestage Enrollment yesterday morning, looked great at first. I pulled up the Applications folder and sorted by Date Modified (newest) so I could keep an eye on the Apps as they popped up. Just Protect popped up. The rest never did. Checked the progress in JamfPro (Cloud) and all the apps are in Pending status. Looked again this morning, still pending, Checked all the scopes and looks fine. Just for giggles I put together a .pkg, wrote a policy to push it out to that laptop and two others that had used same pre-stage successfully. Those two grabbed the .pkg almost immediately, the other didn't. Those two were scoped identically to the third that failed.yes - The computer is checked in the pre-stage enrollment in Jamf.no - it did not inventory much at all except the basics, did not pull in the user info, current apps list, etc, that you would expect to see when a Mac does that first inventory upon enrollment. A little bird to

Hello, I've been using Jamf Connect for a while to sync users account, but since (I believe) the upgrade to Ventura, the login screen for Jamf Connect is always skipped on reboot.We are using Filevault, so usually I would simply run the command bellow to set the Jamf Connect login screen back in. This worked for every MacOS upgrades since Mojave./usr/local/bin/authchanger -reset -jamfconnect But since Ventura, the Jamf Connect login screen won't show up after a reboot. Even if I use the authchanger reset command. I just updated Jamf Connect to 2.24 unfortunately resulting to the same problem.Did this happen to anyone else ? Were you able to fix it ?

I am attempting to get policy statuses for computers from the API. I found a few older posts (from around 2015) saying it wasn't possible, but I also found this post (https://community.jamf.com/t5/jamf-pro/extract-a-jamf-policy-status/m-p/252920) that gave me some hope. I connected with PowerShell and was trying this:$url = "https://domain.jamfcloud.com/JSSResource/policies/id/318" Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method Get -Headers @{"Authorization" = "Bearer $token"}I get a response, but without any information:xml policy --- ------ version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" policyAny ideas on returning policy statuses with the Jamf Pro API? 

I know this has been asked previously but want to know if there is any work being done to fix it apart from working directly on the affected Macs?The school has Jamf Connect synced with Google. If a student forgets their password it gets reset at Google but then they cannot log onto a Mac that they'd previously worked on as the old password is needed. Only fix is to login as a local admin on that mac and either reset the password or delete that user. This seems to be a known issue. Is there any work being done that can somehow sync passwords when the students are not logged in so we don't have to go around manually fixing it all the time?ThanksAndrew

Hello,I am attempting to create a custom Jamf Connect Menu Bar using the second example from Jamf's documentation (https://learn.jamf.com/bundle/jamf-connect-documentation-current/page/Custom_Menu_Bar_Action_Items.html). While on a brief call with Jamf about work arounds for the 802.1X PI, I was told to use the command of "open url" to the self service policy. I am referencing the install item URL template (https://learn.jamf.com/bundle/jamf-pro-documentation-current/page/Jamf_Self_Service_for_macOS_URL_Schemes.html), but I am struggling with the XML in the PLIST and it keeps telling me my formating is wrong because I don't know which commands to use exactly; if I'm even going about this correctly. Does anyone have any examples of a PLIST running a policy from Self Service from their Menu Bar?Thank you

we need to remove VPN Icon from menu barany idea how to achieve this via configuration profile? 

Hey guys, I noticed that wiping our Macs reverts them to Ventura from Sonoma and was wondering if this is expected behavior. If it is, does anyone have recommendations for how we can get them updated as soon as they've restarted? If this is not expected behavior, does anyone know of a proper fix?

I have been stuck on this for the longest time. I am unable to do an iPhone to iPhone migration. The new device is enrolled in DEP/ABM and my current phone is not. The setup assistant shows up, I take my old phone and scan the blue globe. At this point I only get the option to do iCloud backup/restore to the new device. I no longer get an option to go device to device. Has anyone else experienced this issue before? Apple support is stating that it could be an issue with DEP/Jamf not allowing the Device to Device option. If I remove the device from Jamf/DEP, that would essentially throw away the reason to even have these devices in jamf or pre-stage.   As the screenshot shows, I am not blocking any of the Setup Assistant steps or auto advancing.   What I did is I went into Apple Business manager and removed the new phone from hitting any MDM server. I wiped the device and attempted the Setup Assistant with my old iPhone next to it and that gi

I am getting an issue on Mac mini (Late 2014) after upgrading it from 10.14.6 to macOS Monterey 12.7.3 through downloading installer from App Store. It says it cannot open a perl script. I've given the full disk access to terminal, sshd-keygen-wrapper. I am still getting the same issue. I am able to run the script directly from my ssh terminal but when automation tool (through ssh) tries to run the script the error is getting. /NFSmountDir is actually /System/Volumes/Data/NFSmountDir

We have some tools in Self Service only available to Jamf admins. Like a Microsoft uninstaller. I remote into user's computers and try to log in to Self Service to get to my admin tools but whenever I click on the log in button, it is already trying to log in with the local user credentials and I can enter my admin credentials. Is there a way to prevent that from happening? 

Hello,  we currently distribute ipads to users and then walk them through entering Vantagepoint server info and registration. We also do the same for apple id registration. I was wondering if it is possible to automate this info using Jamf? Like for example, once a user is assigned to an ipad in Jamf, is there a way for Jamf auto sign into their icloud account?For Vantagepoint, would their be a way to prepopulate server info? Thank you!

Hey everyone ...trying to install a package to all my fleet, it got installed successfully on all of them except 1 Mac !!"Installation failed. The installer reported: installer: Package name is XYZinstaller: Installing at base path / installer: The install failed. (The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. An error occurred while running scripts from the package “zyx.pkg”.)What does that mean? why only that endpoint!?

Greetings all,Is the Jamf One app for iOS obsolete?  I hadn't used it in quite a while, and when I tried today it gives a network connection error.  In investigating, I don't see it on the App Store anymore either...

Hi there, Does anyone know of an app (preferably tied to Jamf) that is capable of hardware diagnostics? i.e temp, storage limits and general performance related variables.
