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:

  • Due to limitations in the API implementation of policies, as well as the complexity of policy objects, only these attributes can be set and updated via the Policy class:

    • name

    • frequency

    • target_drive

    • offline

    • enabled

    • category

    • triggers

    • client maintenance tasks

    • files and processes

    • reboot options

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

Policies may be deleted via this class

#client_side_limitationsHash (readonly)

The client-side limitations of this policy.

The keys are:

#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”

Class Method Details

.flush_logs(policy, older_than: 0, period: :days, api: nil, cnx: Jamf.cnx) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Flush logs for a given policy older than a given time period. This flushes the logs of the given policy for all computers.

IMPORTANT: from the Jamf Developer Site:

The ability to flush logs is currently only supported for flushing all logs
for a given policy or all logs for a given computer. There is no support for
flushing logs for a given policy and computer combination.

(See .flush_logs_for_computers to to flush all logs for given computers)

With no parameters, flushes all logs for the policy.

Without older_than: and period:, will flush all logs for the policy

NOTE: Currently the API doesn’t have a way to flush only failed policies.

WARNING: Log flushing can take a long time, and the API call doesnt return until its finished. The connection timeout will be temporarily raised to 30 minutes, unless it’s already higher.

Parameters:

  • policy (Integer, String)

    The id or name of the policy to flush

  • older_than (Integer) (defaults to: 0)

    0, 1, 2, 3, or 6, defaults to 0

  • period (Symbol) (defaults to: :days)

    :days, :weeks, :months, or :years, defaults to :days

  • cnx (Jamf::Connection) (defaults to: Jamf.cnx)

    the API connection to use.

Deprecated.

The API no longer sends SHA256 hashed password data, and instead only has a string of asterisks, meaning we can no longer use it to validate passwords before attempting to use them. Instead, the processes that use the password will fail on their own if the pw is not valid.

This method remains defined for backward-compatibility with any existing code that calls it. but it will always return true. Itwill be removed in a future version

Returns Allow the process calling this to continue.

Parameters:

  • password (String)
