Updated formating and issue with detection of smart group on 07/01/2016

DISCLAIMER

I am not providing any kind of warranty. This has been thoroughly tested in my environments but I cannot guarantee that this script is not without bugs. Thank you

TODOS

• Add more logging (Actual logging instead of print)
• Add gui? Prompt for values and file location
• Once bug in the API for large advanced searches is fixes, switch to advanced searches from smart groups.

HOW TO USE

For more detailed instructions, check out the [Quickstart] (https://github.com/bradschm/jss-assettag-importer/wiki/Quickstart)

1. Make an JSS User Account and give it these API rights:

• Create/Read Computer Smart Groups
• Create/Read Mobile Device Smart Groups
• Update Computer records
• Update Mobile Device records
• Update User records

2. Save a csv file of your serial numbers and asset tags. Format is assettag,serialnumber. In other words, the first column is the asset tag and the second is the serialnumber.
3. Run the jss-importer.py script - be patient, this could take a while. Creating the groups can take a long time in large environments. Touching each record isn't blazing fast either but I did put in a progress counter ;)

Example command to execute: Open Terminal and run: python path/to/jss-assettag-importer.py
