Consideration of Patch Management EAs

aduffner commented 3 years ago

First of all, great tool you have created here! 💯

May Extension attributes created automatically by patch management appear here incorrectly: mac_extension_attributes_not_linked

But I think this is a limitation of Jamf Pro, as I haven't found a way to retrieve this info via Classic API or the newer Universal API.

Having a poke around with a Classic and Universal APIs, I also cannot seem to find a clever way to detect if an Extension Attribute is being used by Patch Management Software Title.

The closest thing I can think of is the default Extension Attribute description that gets generated, however that can be changed very easily and would cause inaccuracies.

🤔

not ideal, but could just do a report indicating that it's probably a jamf patch ea based on jamf naming conventions, which are:

'jamf-patch-' (new mondada version)</li> <li>'patch-EA-<title>' (old legacy version)</li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="comment"> <div class="user"> <a rel="noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://github.com/aduffner"><img src="https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/47379999?v=4" />aduffner</a> commented <strong> 3 years ago</strong> </div> <div class="markdown-body"> <p>As @ninxsoft created <a href="https://github.com/ninxsoft/Kmart/issues/3">https://github.com/ninxsoft/Kmart/issues/3</a> i will close my issue now.</p> </div> </div> <div class="page-bar-simple"> </div> <div class="footer"> <ul class="body"> <li>© <script> document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) </script> Githubissues.</li> <li>Githubissues is a development platform for aggregating issues.</li> </ul> </div> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/jquery@3.5.1/dist/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="/githubissues/assets/js.js"></script> <script src="/githubissues/assets/markdown.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/cdn-release@11.4.0/build/highlight.min.js"></script> <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highlightjs/cdn-release@11.4.0/build/languages/go.min.js"></script> <script> hljs.highlightAll(); </script> </body> </html>
