Hi Enric,

A tricky request, but not impossible.

There arn't any scripts that enable you to for example write the path to a file and then retrieve it using custom data.

Your best bet is to use REST API's.

If you are running a MobiControl version that supports signal policies and webhooks (2024+ i believe) you could use this to trigger a webhook to an endpoint that in turn retrieves the path of the device (using the deviceID passed in via the webhook) and writes the path into a custom attribute at a device level. The trigger would be the device moving from one group to another.

Kind regards,

Robert

Dear Enric,

Thank you for posting on SOTI Pulse.

Many thanks Robert for your valuable inputs.

For more granular, dynamic control over file paths or specific actions, you can use the " if " command within a SOTI MobiControl script.

This method relies on checking environment variables that identify the current user. SOTI MobiControl supports using environment variables in scripts, such as %ENROLLEDUSER% or other custom data variables, to check the current user's identity. A script implementing the logic might look like this (syntax may vary slightly by OS platform):

if %ENROLLEDUSER% == "user a" // Commands for "path a" (e.g., copy files to a specific directory, run a specific command) md "1:\PersistentStorage\PathA" copy "1:\source\file_a.txt" "1:\PersistentStorage\PathA" endif

if %ENROLLEDUSER% == "user b" // Commands for "path b" md "1:\PersistentStorage\PathB" copy "1:\source\file_b.txt" "1:\PersistentStorage\PathB" endif

This script can be pushed to the device via an "Advanced Configuration" or as part of a package installation, allowing it to execute the relevant commands based on the logged-in user.
