I've done some searches on jamf Nation this morning and come up empty handed. Has anyone been able to add a custom path to inventory collection settings that will inventory items in all Users' Internet Plug-Ins folder?

I tried /Users/*/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ which didn't work, and I even tried /Users/%/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ thinking that maybe I needed the "%" as a SQL wildcard.

I would really like to do this without a custom Extension Attribute because It's much easier to report off of -- at least in my opinion.

Well, now I feel like a bit of an idiot... I didn't think it would be smart enough to interpret ~/ properly. Thanks @AVmcclint!

I wouldn't have thought so either because of how the jamf binary doesn't know how to interpret ~ in scripts, but ~/Applications is pre-populated in our JSS Inventory settings so I just roll with it.
