Display Current Network SSID on Lockdown screen

Solved

Hello, I know next to nothing about HTML scripting.  I was able to add the device name to the lockdown using the following that I stole from another forum question (its not the whole code, but hopefully enough to give you an idea):

<div id="Footer">
    <div class="FooterContainer">
        <div id="id">ID: %devicename%</div> 
 
I wanted to do the same to display the network name so an end user can tell me what device and what network they are on in case we need to troubleshoot.  Is the SSID available for this purpose, and, if so, how can I go about adding it to my lock down. 
 
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Hi Devin 

Replace %devicename" with %SSID%

Other macros that you may find useful

%IP%

%MAC%

One point on MAC (at least for the cases I have tested), this is the device MAC address. And so, if the device is using MAC randomisation (rather than device MAC) when connecting to SSID - Mobicontrol does not retrieve the randomised MAC address. (I have a support ticket for this currently)

Haha!  Sorta obvious in hindsight.  Thanks a lot for the information!
