I am trying to figure out how to deploy a script to our users that deregisters the O365 suite. On the Microsoft site I have found the following Terminal command:
This works like a charm when I run it locally, but when I try to run it through Jamf (selfService) it gives no result. I think this might be because the script through Jamf does not run as the logged in user.
This is what I have sofar:
#!/bin/bash #Remove all Microsoft users defaults write com.microsoft.Word ResetOneAuthCreds -bool YES
hoping there is someone that can point me in the right direction here.

Managed to solve it myself with the help of ChatGPT. Did not know about the $USER possibility of sudo.
To send the defaults write command through Jamf to run as the local user, you can create a Jamf policy with a script payload that utilizes the sudo command to execute the command as the current user. Here's how you can achieve this:
#!/bin/bash #Remove all Microsoft users sudo -u $USER defaults write com.microsoft.Word ResetOneAuthCreds -bool YES
When the policy is executed on the devices, the script payload will run the specified defaults write command using sudo -u $USER, which runs the command as the current user.
@TheHoff If you're looking to remove the Office license(s) from a Mac you can use the License Reset Package from https://office-reset.com/macadmins/ (that site and the removal tool were created by @pbowden from Microsoft)
