Overview

A class implementing a JSS Policy.

Like many API objects, the data comes from the API in sections, and the items in the :general section are mapped to direct attributes of this Class.

Policy instances are partially read-only:

All other values and sections must be edited via the Web App.

Policies may be deleted via this class

This attribute is just for convience and consistency, and just refers to the data in their API locations

#override_default_settingsHash (readonly)

Overrides for various defaults

NOTE: There’s an API bug in both XML and JSON with the

:distribution_point and :target_drive values.
First off, it's not clear what the :target_drive value here
is overriding, since there's a :target_drive value in the
main General hash.
Second off - when you set a non-default dist.point in the
packages section of the UI, that value shows up in both
this :target_drive and the general one, but the :distribution_point
value here stays empty.

The hash looks like: :distribution_point => “”, :force_afp_smb => false, :netboot_server => “current”, :target_drive => “default”, :sus => “default”
