Wanting to learn the JAMF API, where to start?

[Matt]

Hey everyone. I want to start using the JAMF API. What types of languages should I be looking at in order to utilize the API?

Not sure if this is the same content but I've referred to this page a few times: https://bryson3gps.wordpress.com/2014/03/30/the-jss-rest-api-for-everyone/

You can use Python or bash with it. I use bash, but only because of familiarity. I haven't found anything I couldn't do yet.

You can also take a look on GitHub for JSS API as you'll get loads of good examples like this one: https://github.com/igeekjsc/JSSAPIScripts/blob/master/jssMigrationUtility.bash
