Understand Command Results

JumpCloud's Commands resource lets you run commands using PowerShell, Bash, and Shell across any number of devices (Windows, Mac or Linux) or Device Groups.  Every command returns an result code, also sometimes referred to as a result status, exit status, or exit code. Result codes can be useful in diagnosing issues with Commands.

Considerations:

• Command results are not specific to JumpCloud and will vary depending on which OS / terminal the commands are executed on.
• JumpCloud commands are executed on Windows as the NT\Authority user (unlike sudo for Linux/Mac); to function properly, command scripts will need to be written as user-agnostic.
• Any change made via a command script will have to be applied to all users.
• Command results and custom command scripts are outside the the scope of JumpCloud support.

Prerequisites: 

• You need a managed device running on a supported OS to create a command.
• You need to create device groups before you create a command. See Create a Device Group.
