Hi all,
I am trying to write a bash script for logging out of adobe creative cloud desktop app.
I could not find anything solid on google or any other websites.
So any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.

Running

osascript -e 'tell application "Adobe Desktop Service" to quit'

..as either the logged in user, sudo -u that user, or from root returns:

44:48: execution error: Adobe Desktop Service got an error: User canceled. (-128)

..but does close the Adobe Creative Cloud utility regardless of whether it was still attached to the menu bar or opened as a separate window.

Has anyone figured this out for CC2019 using Shared Device Licensing? Over 75% of our iMacs are classroom computers where students log in with AD accounts.

I am also looking for a solution to log out of creative cloud on log off. I found this: https://www.jamf.com/jamf-nation/discussions/32615/adobe-cc-shared-lab-log-out-issues

The login looks to be stored as a Secure Note inside the Keychain. I cannot seem to find a way to delete Secure Notes from Terminal without deleting the whole login keychain.
