No. You need to allow remote access on the database. It's a security feature of MySQL. This is what step 3 of the KB article is doing. The <hostname> part is the machine you want to allow <username> access from. Use * if you want that user to access the database from any host.
Also, why would you ever ever ever use root for remote access to anything? Make a read only account.
Good lord.

Are you aware that JAMF offers a JSS --> SCCM connector? Of course, this
wouldn't be a solution if you don't want to populate your SCCM with Mac
assets but since you already have that connection then this would be an
easy solution.

The jamf KB says to "sudo mysql", then it prompts me for an admin password for sudo. I'm assuming it's passing those creds for mysql and not asking for another password.
No, it's not. MySQL has its own user structure.
