Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) via swiftDialog

Update: 11-Jun-2024

Setup Your Mac (1.15.0) with SYM-Helper (1.2.0) via swiftDialog (2.5.0)


Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) introduces “live” Jamf Pro policy validation to answer the question:

“I can see it’s installed … is it running?

Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) screencast (01:48; no audio; edited for time)

Introduction

Apple’s Automated Device Enrollment helps to streamline Mobile Device Management (MDM) enrollment and device Supervision during activation, enabling IT to manage enterprise devices with “zero touch.”

Setup Your Mac aims to simplify initial device configuration by leveraging swiftDialog and Jamf Pro Policy Custom Events to allow end-users to self-complete Mac setup post-enrollment.

Implementation

While Setup Your Mac was originally designed to be executed via a Jamf Pro Self Service policy, version 1.5.1 introduced additional checks to better execute with the Jamf Pro “Enrollment Complete” policy trigger.

Prior to using Setup Your Mac, we were using Jamf Pro policies triggered by enrollmentComplete (i.e., “Enrollment Complete Immediately after a computer completes the enrollment process”), but the successful execution of these policies was too unreliable for our needs.

Policies with an Enrollment Complete trigger do not run upon completion of enrollment under certain circumstances.

Jamf Pro Known Issues PI100009 - PI-004775

Currently — as can be observed in the first several seconds of the Setup Your Mac screencast — a device is initially considered as “non-compliant” and is only offered two policies:

  1. Setup Your Mac
  2. Update Computer Inventory

The successful execution of Setup Your Mac results in a compliant Mac.

Additionally, we require login to Self Service — including Multi-Factor Authentication — for every other policy; enabling Setup Your Mac at Enrollment Complete would bypass the required user login on the very first policy the user experiences. (See also: Setup Your Mac, please.)

PreStage Enrollments

Thanks to Robert Schroeder for the excellent write-up on using Setup Your Mac with Jamf Pro PreStage Enrollments.

Prerequisites

If the core functionality of Setup Your Mac meets your needs, writing code should not be required.

However, you must be comfortable modifying scripts before implementing this approach in production (i.e., customizing existing settings for your use-case, reading and editing JSON, etc.).

The Jamf Training Catalog, which is free to all Jamf customers, is a great place to start learning the basics.

Configuration

Complete the following steps to provide your users a seamless post-enrollment experience when setting up their new Macs.

A. Conduct a dry-run of the Setup Your Mac script

Complete the following steps on a virtual machine or non-production physical Mac.

  1. Open the macOS Terminal.
  2. Download the latest production version of Setup Your Mac using the following command. (The script will be saved to your Downloads folder as Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-reference.bash):
curl -o ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-reference.bash https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dan-snelson/dialog-scripts/main/Setup%20Your%20Mac/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog.bash
  1. Execute the Setup Your Mac script using the following command:
bash ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-reference.bash
  1. Observe the output (i.e., This script must be run as root; exiting.)
This script must be run as root; exiting.
  1. Execute the Setup Your Mac script with elevated privileges via sudo !!:
sudo !!
  1. Wait while the latest production version of swiftDialog is automatically installed and the personalized “Welcome” dialog is displayed:
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) "Welcome" dialog
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) “Welcome” dialog
  1. After reviewing and interacting with the input fields, click Quit.
  2. Observe the output in Terminal (i.e., WELCOME DIALOG: dan clicked Quit at Welcome dialog):
sudo bash ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-reference.bash

  1. Re-execute the Setup Your Mac script with elevated privileges by pressing the Up Arrow once and then pressing Return.
  2. Populate the input fields and click Continue:
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) "Welcome" dialog with input fields populated
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) “Welcome” dialog with input fields populated
  1. Wait while Setup Your Mac runs in Debug Mode (displayed in the bottom, left-hand corner) and observe the expected failures (since Custom Triggers for the Jamf Pro policies have not yet been configured):
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) “Debug Mode” expected failures
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) “Failure” dialog with user instructions
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) "Debug Mode" completionActionOption
Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) “Debug Mode” completionActionOption
  1. Review the client-side Setup Your Mac log file via Console:
open /var/tmp/org.churchofjesuschrist.log 

Note: When Debug Mode is set to true, Jamf Pro policies do not execute (which is why the validation checks fail); review the client-side log for the following:

SETUP YOUR MAC DIALOG: Confirm Policy Execution: DEBUG MODE: Skipping 'run_jamf_trigger
B. Testing Tips

Simulating Failures

When testing Setup Your Mac on an enrolled Mac, you may not observe any failures, even though that’s what you want.

Temporarily replacing some (or all) instances of Info.plist with Info.plist.failed can easily simulate failures.

Simulate failures by replacing Info.plist with Info.plist.failed

Completion Actions

While Debug Mode can prove helpful during initial testing, eventually you’ll want to test-drive real-world scenarios (and, as you can imagine, testing forced-restarts includes some inherent inconvenience).

A trick I stumbled on is to first launch Terminal and elevate to root prior to testing.

With an elevated Terminal, you’ll first be prompted for confirmation to forcibly quit Terminal, which you can cancel and continue testing.

Unexpected Computer Inventory Delay

While testing via Terminal, you may observe the Computer Inventory step taking longer than expected. Type Command k to quit the active dialog and you may find Terminal is requesting access to any number of user-specific items. After responding to each access request, proceed with your testing.

C. Review the default Welcome dialog

The input fields in the “Welcome” dialog are controlled by a single welcomeJSON variable (thanks to Bart Reardon) and you can add, modify or remove fields as required.

Note: With the exception of Asset Tag, the included input fields are examples only and should be thoroughly tested before being deployed in production.

Setup Your Mac (1.6.0) main dialog

The list of Jamf Pro policies to be executed is controlled by policy_array (thanks to Obi-James Smith).

First, configure the setupYourMacPolicyArrayIconPrefixUrl to the fully qualified domain name of the server which hosts your icons, including any required sub-directories. (See Jamf’s Cloud Services Connection: Icon Service.)

Next, for each configuration step, specify:

  • listitem: The text to be displayed in the list
  • icon: The hash of the icon to be displayed
  • progresstext: The text to be displayed below the progress bar
  • trigger: The Jamf Pro Policy Custom Event Name
  • validation:
    • {absolute path} (simulates pre-1.6.0 behavior, for example:
      "/Applications/Microsoft Teams.app/Contents/Info.plist")
    • Local (for validation within the Setup Your Mac script, for example: "filevault")
    • Remote (for validation validation via a single-script Jamf Pro policy, for example: "symvGlobalProtect")
    • None (for triggers which don’t require validation, for example: recon; always evaluates as successful)

H. Troubleshooting
1. Welcome dialog doesn’t display

If in your Jamf Pro policy you’ve set Welcome dialog (i.e., Parameter 6) to true, but it doesn’t display as expected, the issue is most often invalid JSON. Please double-check the following:

  1. Confirm the Welcome dialog displays when the script is executed via Terminal using a freshly downloaded, timestamped copy of Setup Your Mac
    • Enter your password when prompted
    • Click Quit
timestamp=$( date '+%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S' ) ; curl -o ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-$timestamp.bash https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dan-snelson/dialog-scripts/main/Setup%20Your%20Mac/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog.bash ; sudo bash ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-$timestamp.bash
  1. Re-run your customized version of Setup Your Mac and review the client-side logs for entries which contain: WELCOME DIALOG
2022-12-26 07:03:38 - WELCOME DIALOG: dan entered information and clicked Continue
execution error: Error: SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unexpected identifier "JSON" (-2700)
  1. If you observe JSON Parse error in the logs, copy your entire welcomeJSON variable and paste into a new, blank document, then make the following modifications:
    • Delete welcomeJSON=' (being careful to retain the opening curly brace {)
    • Find "'" and replace with " (so the welcome-related variables will pass validation)
    • Delete the trailing single quote '
    • Validate the JSON by copying everything between the beginning and ending curly braces { … } and pasting at jsonlint.com
    • Review the displayed results and remediate as necessary until you observe Valid JSON
2. Setup Your Mac policy list doesn’t display

If the Setup Your Mac dialog displays — but its policy list does not — the issue is most often invalid JSON.

Invalid JSON preventing policy list from displaying
Invalid JSON preventing policy list from displaying

Please double-check the following:

  1. Confirm the Setup Your Mac policy list (i.e., policy_array) displays when the script is executed via Terminal using a freshly downloaded, timestamped copy of Setup Your Mac:
    • Enter your password when prompted
    • Specify an Asset Tag
    • Click Continue
timestamp=$( date '+%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S' ) ; curl -o ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-$timestamp.bash https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dan-snelson/dialog-scripts/main/Setup%20Your%20Mac/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog.bash ; sudo bash ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-$timestamp.bash
  1. Re-run your customized version of Setup Your Mac and review the client-side logs for entries which contain: JSON Parse error (Note: If progress_total does not end in an integer, there is almost certainly invalid JSON in policy_array.)
execution error: Error: SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Expected ']' (-2700)
2022-12-26 08:09:10 - SETUP YOUR MAC DIALOG: progress_total=
  1. If you observe JSON Parse error in the logs:
    • Copy the policy_array variable between the beginning and ending curly braces { … }
    • Paste at jsonlint.com
    • Review the displayed results and remediate as necessary until you observe Valid JSON
3. Setup Your Mac dialog displays briefly, then “disappears”

If the Setup Your Mac dialog displays briefly, “disappears,” and the Jamf Pro policies continue to execute, the issue is most often invalid icons. (See swiftDialog Issue No. 208.)

Invalid icons cause Setup Your Mac dialog to briefly display

Please double-check the following:

  1. Confirm the Setup Your Mac dialog and icons display as expected when the script is executed via Terminal using a freshly downloaded, timestamped copy of Setup Your Mac:
    • Enter your password when prompted
    • Specify an Asset Tag
    • Click Continue
timestamp=$( date '+%Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S' ) ; curl -o ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-$timestamp.bash https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dan-snelson/dialog-scripts/main/Setup%20Your%20Mac/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog.bash ; sudo bash ~/Downloads/Setup-Your-Mac-via-Dialog-$timestamp.bash
  1. Re-run your customized version of Setup Your Mac via Terminal, watching for the brief appearance of the Setup Your Mac dialog, then search the Terminal output for the following error:
/usr/local/bin/dialog: line 2: 10577 Trace/BPT trap: 5 /Library/Application\ Support/Dialog/Dialog.app/Contents/MacOS/Dialog "$@"
  1. Review the Terminal output for the icon URLs and validate they each work as expected in your default browser:

  1. Consider enabling your Jamf Pro instance’s Cloud Services Connection for the available Icon Service.
4. Unexpected Jamf Pro Policy Execution

If your Jamf Pro policies aren’t executing as expected, complete the following steps to enable verbose policy execution:

  1. Ensure debug mode is set to false (since policies do not actually execute when debug mode is set to true)
  2. Search for and comment-out the following (shown as Line 807 below):
    eval "${jamfBinary} policy -trigger ${trigger}"
  3. Uncomment the following (shown as Line 808 below):
    eval "${jamfBinary} policy -trigger ${trigger} -verbose | tee -a ${scriptLog}"
  4. Re-run your customized Setup Your Mac script
  5. Review the client-side logs for the problematic policies

5. Jamf Pro Remote Policy Validation Failures

When troubleshooting remote Jamf Pro Policy Validation failures, ensure the keyword Running is returned by your validation script / policy.

# Validation via a Jamf Pro policy which has a single-script payload, for example: "symvGlobalProtect"
# See: https://vimeo.com/782561166

6. Various “Restart” Completion Actions not Restarting as Expected

Background

Some Mac Admins using an Enrollment Complete trigger for Setup Your Mac have reported that the various “restart” Completion Actions fail to actually restart the computer, after an otherwise successful execution.

Each Completion Action includes alternative code options which should result in the desired behavior.

Restart

The Restart Completion Action includes three options to restart the computer, show below as lines:

  • 1178
  • 1179 (default)
  • 1180
"Restart" )
    updateScriptLog "Restart sans user interaction"
    killProcess "Self Service"
    # runAsUser osascript -e 'tell app "System Events" to restart'
    sleep 5 && runAsUser osascript -e 'tell app "System Events" to restart' &
    # shutdown -r +1 &
    ;;

If the default code option of Line 1179 does not work as expected, comment it out, then uncomment either Line 1178 or Line 1180 and re-test.

Restart Attended

The Restart Attended Completion Action also includes three options to restart the computer, show below as lines:

  • 1187
  • 1188 (default)
  • 1189
"Restart Attended" )
    updateScriptLog "Restart, requiring user-interaction"
    killProcess "Self Service"
    wait
    # runAsUser osascript -e 'tell app "System Events" to restart'
    sleep 5 && runAsUser osascript -e 'tell app "System Events" to restart' &
    # shutdown -r +1 &
    ;;

If the default code option of Line 1188 does not work as expected, comment it out, then uncomment either Line 1187 or Line 1189 and re-test.

Support, Feature Requests & Bug Reports

Support

The #setup-your-mac Channel on the Mac Admins Slack and is a great resource when implementing Setup Your Mac in your environment.

“YOYO” Code

To the best of my recollection, Setup Your Mac (1.5.0) was the first time I’d publicly posted code which I considered to be knowingly incomplete and not fully untested (for the simple reason that we don’t use the additional input fields introduced in version 1.5.0 in our environment).

When you observe code blocks which include the following comment, please be aware that “you’re on your own.”

# UNTESTED, UNSUPPORTED "YOYO" EXAMPLE

Feature Requests

Please submit feature requests on GitHub and note that while all requests are welcome, finding available cycles to custom-code a feature we won’t use in our production environment is always challenging.

Bug Reports

Before submitting a Setup Your Mac bug report on GitHub, please review the open swiftDialog issues to help determine the source of the issue.
