How To Push a folder to sync into Onedrive via Jamf policy / no touch

I'm trying to find a way , policy/config profile/etc , to set up a sync with Onedrive on our devices. We've given up basically on having Onedrive auto-logged-in but once they do log in we want specific folders to backup automatically to Onedrive. I'm having a hard time figuring this one out. We can do this on our current PC's via a group policy in Intune but I can't find the equivalent in Jamf.

Use this setting to redirect and move your users' Documents and/or Desktop folders to OneDrive without any user interaction.

You can move both folders at once or select which folder you want to move. After a folder is moved, this setting won't affect that folder again.

If you're asking to have folders outside the OneDrive folder itself other than Desktop or Documents sync into OneDrive that isn't directly supported on macOS.

In theory you could create a script that would move the folder(s) you want to sync into the OneDrive folder and create a symlink (a true symlink, not an alias) in the original location so the filesystem would re-direct accessing the symlink to the relocated folder.
