Another Noob API Question - Functionality of Classic API VS JAMF PRO API

Hi again,

Does the JAMF PRO API support all the same functions/endpoints as the Classic API?

If they support different endpoints, is there a document showing the differences?.

Also, it seems JAMF PRO API is in Beta, is that true? How reliable is it?

Thanks

Steven

Not everything in the Classic API is implemented in the Jamf Pro API yet which is why there's the beta tag on it. You can absolutely use the Jamf Pro API now. As far as the differences between the two, you can just compare the two doc urls (as referenced in your previous thread) and see what endpoints are available. Note, the Jamf Pro API retooled plenty of those endpoints so the names and content returned might not match up 100%, but it's a good place to start looking for differences.

Also if you're on the MacAdmins Slack, there's a #jss-api channel you might be interested in!

Not sure this will help you since you've had a lot of questions about the Jamf Pro API. This is all about the Classic API. To be honest, the Jamf Pro API isn't much use at the moment due to the limited features it offers. So become familiar with using the Classic API. Become an expert on that....then dive into the Jamf Pro API. But if you're interested in what's different

Thanks for sharing and the link to Ninja, boberito,

Will look into it. I'll probably learn a lot from it.
