Code 42 supplies a script that pulls the email address from the Users section of Jamf Pro. For one of our MSP clients this doesn't work since they don't use AD or LDAP nor the Users component of Jamf Pro.
I re-wrote the script that Code 42 had provided so it gets the computer serial number, then gets the computer's JSS ID, then pulls an email address that is manually entered in the User and Location record of the computer's inventory. This is an email address that we manually enter. If the email address is blank in the inventory, then it will display a prompt for the user to enter their work email address, which is then passed on with the script. You of course have to add your correct API user credentials and the JSS URL to the script, which is then used in the Deployment Policy in Code 42.

#this will get me just the serial number
