Thanks @tlarkin
I couldn't get your script to work from the JSS, with "Microsoft Teams" as the $4 parameter, as a test if i run the script locally
(changing kill_list = "Microsoft Teams") it works, i think there's something going on with pulling that parameter when running the command as a user.
I've managed to get my script working by creating a separate script from within the main one, the script is created on the fly and then run as the user, this pulls the parameter from the JSS and quits the application successfully, on the JSS it needs to be set without quotes, i pinched the idea from @mm2270 here
thanks again for you help!
Here's my convoluted yet working script, checks if the application set in parameter $4 is open, notifies user and gives the option to quit the app then trigger the update policy or exit, if the app is closed it silently triggers the update.
#!/bin/bash
#check if app is open, notify and quit, use script parameter for application name
LoggedInUser=$( stat -f%Su /dev/console )
LoggedInUID=$(stat -f %u /dev/console)
if [[ $LoggedInUser = "root" ]]; then
echo "No user logged in - exiting script"
exit 0
fi
# check to see if a value was passed for $4, and if so, assign it
if [ "$4" != "" ]; then
application=$4
else
echo "No application parameter set on JSS, exiting script"
exit 1
fi
