This Python script performs a search on a JSS using the '/match' API endpoint for Computers or Mobile Devices and creates a Static Group of the results.
The script takes arguments and contains built-in help text.
A single phrase can be passed as the search criteria or a list provided in CSV format. Any searchable criteria for an inventory record can be used along with wild card values (*).
CSV lists can contain a mix of values such as usernames, email addresses, serial numbers, MAC addresses, etc. Your CSV file should be formatted as a single column without a header:
| value1 |
|---|
| value2 |
| value3 |
Passing an asterisk (*) as the criteria will return all device records.
