ClearPass Jamf Extension v5 and attributes?

  • 1.  ClearPass Jamf Extension v5 and attributes?

    Posted 13 days ago

    I have been parsing through Jamf extension v.5.0 release notes (the v5 extension application itself links to only the v4.2 documentation). As I am reading through the v5 release notes, there are additional links as to the disparage between Jamf Classic API and Jamf Pro API field names. 

     Deprecation of Classic API Computer Inventory Endpoints

    An I have a handle on that I think. My question is, since from another inquiry of using extensions or using a Endpoint Context Server, the recommendation was 'extensions are the way to go moving forward', do additional attributes I define in the extension config automatically get created or do I have to create them myself?
    I see a bunch of JAMF Dictionary Attributes created (assuming default from extension), but the new ones I added, are not. I am new to ClearPass and not sure how these map to each other...(i.e... just because I add username to my additional attribute in the extension, I don't know if me just creating a Dictionary Attribute called "JAMF Username" referencing the Endpoint repository is enough). It's like I am missing some crucial middle step or two that seems to elude me. I feel like the extension should have created the attributes like it did the default others, but again, it did not.
