jamfplatform-go-sdk

Go client library for the Jamf Platform API.

All types, methods, and unit tests are generated from OpenAPI spec files. Published API specs are available in the api/ directory.

Installation

go get github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk

Usage

package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"os"

	"github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk/jamfplatform"
	"github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk/jamfplatform/devices"
)

func main() {
	client := jamfplatform.NewClient(
		"https://your-tenant.apigw.jamf.com",
		os.Getenv("JAMFPLATFORM_CLIENT_ID"),
		os.Getenv("JAMFPLATFORM_CLIENT_SECRET"),
		jamfplatform.WithTenantID(os.Getenv("JAMFPLATFORM_TENANT_ID")),
	)

	ctx := context.Background()

	// List all devices
	ds, err := devices.New(client).ListDevices(ctx, nil, "")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	for _, d := range ds {
		fmt.Printf("%s  %s  %s\n", d.ID, d.Name, d.SerialNumber)
	}
}

Authentication

The client uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials. Create API credentials in your Jamf Platform tenant and provide the client ID and secret.

Token refresh is handled automatically.

Client options

client := jamfplatform.NewClient(baseURL, clientID, clientSecret,
	jamfplatform.WithTenantID(tenantID),
	jamfplatform.WithUserAgent("my-app/1.0"),
	jamfplatform.WithHTTPClient(customHTTPClient),
	jamfplatform.WithLogger(myLogger),
	jamfplatform.WithFileTokenCache("/tmp/tokens"),
)

Error handling

Any non-success HTTP response surfaces as *jamfplatform.APIResponseError. Inspect it via the accessor methods; for non-HTTP errors (denylist refusal, context cancellation, IO failures) err.Error() carries a formatted message.

import (
	"github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk/jamfplatform"
	"github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk/jamfplatform/devices"
)

device, err := devices.New(client).GetDevice(ctx, id)
if apiErr := jamfplatform.AsAPIError(err); apiErr != nil {
	switch {
	case apiErr.HasStatus(404):
		// handle not found
	case apiErr.StatusCode >= 400 && apiErr.StatusCode < 500:
		// surface field-level validation errors
		for field, msgs := range apiErr.FieldErrors() {
			for _, msg := range msgs {
				fmt.Printf("  %s: %s\n", field, msg)
			}
		}
	default:
		fmt.Println(apiErr.Summary())
	}
}

Accessors on *APIResponseError:

  • HasStatus(code) — check for a specific HTTP status.
  • Details() — raw []ErrorDetail parsed from the response body.
  • FieldErrors() — details bucketed by field name for attribute-level diagnostics.
  • Summary() — single-line human-readable summary for logs or CLI output.
  • AsAPIError(err) — top-level unwrap, returns *APIResponseError or nil.

Pro JSON endpoints populate Details/FieldErrors with server-returned validation info. Classic XML and other non-JSON error bodies may leave those empty; Summary() always formats cleanly regardless.

RSQL filters

Build filters for list endpoints:

filter := jamfplatform.BuildRSQLExpression([]jamfplatform.RSQLClause{
	{Selector: "name", Operator: "==", Argument: "MacBook*"},
	{Selector: "operatingSystemVersion", Operator: "=gt=", Argument: "15.0"},
})
ds, err := devices.New(client).ListDevices(ctx, nil, filter)

Async polling

For async operations (e.g. benchmark sync), use the PollUntil helper:

ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(ctx, 2*time.Minute)
defer cancel()

cb := compliancebenchmarks.New(client)
err := jamfplatform.PollUntil(ctx, 5*time.Second, func(ctx context.Context) (bool, error) {
	bm, err := cb.GetBenchmark(ctx, id)
	if err != nil {
		return false, err
	}
	return bm.SyncState == "SYNCED", nil
})

API coverage

Each API family lives in its own sub-package under jamfplatform/. Construct a service client with <pkg>.New(rootClient).

Sub-package API
jamfplatform/devices Platform device inventory
jamfplatform/devicegroups Platform device groups
jamfplatform/deviceactions Platform MDM commands (erase, restart, shutdown, unmanage, check-in)
jamfplatform/blueprints Platform blueprints + components
jamfplatform/ddmreport Platform declaration reporting
jamfplatform/compliancebenchmarks Platform compliance benchmarks
jamfplatform/pro Jamf Pro JSON API (buildings, packages, policies, MDM, enrollment, settings, PKI, App Installers, etc.)
jamfplatform/proclassic Jamf Classic XML API (computers, mobile devices, groups, profiles, policies, etc.)

All list methods handle pagination automatically. Pro's versioned endpoints emit version-suffixed Go methods (ListBuildingsV1, GetCheckInSettingsV3) so consumers pin to a specific API version. Exact method lists are generated from the OpenAPI specs under testing/ — see the published specs in api/ for the current surface.

Classic (XML) example

import "github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk/jamfplatform/proclassic"

classic := proclassic.New(client)
computer, err := classic.GetComputerByID(ctx, "42")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println(computer.General.Name, computer.Hardware.ModelIdentifier)

Classic is fully typed — the generator hoists nested XML sections (general, hardware, purchasing, etc.) into named structs and emits every field as a pointer so three-state null/value semantics round-trip cleanly (required for the upcoming Terraform provider).

Pro example

import "github.com/Jamf-Concepts/jamfplatform-go-sdk/jamfplatform/pro"

p := pro.New(client)
pkgs, err := p.ListPackagesV1(ctx, nil, "")
if err != nil {
    log.Fatal(err)
}
for _, pkg := range pkgs {
    fmt.Println(pkg.ID, pkg.PackageName, pkg.FileName)
}

// Multipart .pkg upload
f, _ := os.Open("my-app.pkg")
defer f.Close()
created, _ := p.CreatePackageV1(ctx, &pro.Package{
    PackageName: "my-app",
    FileName:    "my-app.pkg",
    CategoryID:  "-1",
})
_, err = p.UploadPackageV1(ctx, created.ID, "my-app.pkg", f)

Code generation

All SDK types, methods, and unit tests are generated from OpenAPI spec files using a custom generator built on kin-openapi. The generator also publishes filtered API specs to api/ containing only the public SDK surface.

make generate    # regenerate Go code, tests, and published API specs
make test        # run unit tests
make testacc     # run acceptance tests (requires API credentials)
make lint        # run golangci-lint

The only handwritten source file is jamfplatform/client.go. Everything else is generated from the specs in testing/ via the config in tools/generate/config.json.

To add a new API endpoint:

  1. Ensure the endpoint is defined in the OpenAPI spec file under testing/
  2. Add an operation entry to tools/generate/config.json
  3. Run make generate

CI enforces that generated output is current on every pull request.
