Data Processing
Jamf Pro Data Processing
Zluri fetches valuable data related to user information, computer usage, user groups, and activity details from JAMF Pro to provide insights into the Apple devices used within the organization for effective management and optimization. This article explains how you can validate the Jamf Data in Zluri.
User Data Processing
If an email address is present in the raw data, Zluri processes the following information:
- Name
- Status
- User photo name
- User creation time
- User Metadata
If there is no email for a user, Zluri processes the following information:
- ID
- Name
- User photo URL
- Status
- User creation time
- User Metadata
Activities Data Processing
If a user is present in both the previous and current sync, indicating activity on consecutive days, the user is identified as active. If a user was listed in the previous sync but is absent in the subsequent sync, signifying no recent activity, the user is identified as inactive.
- Activity type: 'signin'
- Processing the 'date' field to extract the activity timestamp
How Zluri Fetches the JAMF Pro Data
Zluri retrieves the list of users and computer application usage from JAMF Pro by calling the following APIs:
- https://developer.jamf.com/jamf-pro/reference/findusersbyid/
- https://developer.jamf.com/jamf-pro/reference/findcomputerapplicationusagebyid/
Status Mapping Logic
Zluri does not get the explicit user application status of the users from JAMF Pro APIs.
-
All the users who come from the first API data sync and during the consecutive syncs users are present in both the previous and current sync, indicating activity on consecutive days are marked with User Application Status = ‘Active’.
-
Users listed in the previous sync but absent in the subsequent sync are marked with User Application Status = ‘Inactive’.

- Match the data from the report with the ‘Users’ data received from the API.
Validating the Applications Usage Data
