Hello Mattia,

Thank you for posting on SOTI Central!

The available custom attribute data types are: Boolean, Numeric, Text, Date and Enumerator.

Please take a look at the following article for more information on Custom Attributes:

Manage Custom Attributes (soti.net)

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi,

I have a numeric type custom attribute.

So how do I get the value with Java Script?

Thanks,

Hello Mattia,

Thank you for your reply.

Custom Attributes are a Server side value. For a device to update a Custom Attribute it would need to send a command to the Management Service via Restful API call. This is currently not possible in JavaScript engine. Please feel free to create a case with our support to file a feature request for your use case.

​The JavaScript Engine is capable of editing Custom Data. Depending on the use case in your case, you might want to investigate if it is better for you to just work with Custom Data instead of Custom Attributes.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Despite my previous communications and feature-requests to different parties within Soti more than a year ago, there still seems to be no support for direct manipulation of custom attribbutes in the latest MobiControl javascript implementation, according to the latest online documentation from Soti.
