Edit scripts

Edit scripts

You can edit the three types of scripts: offline KScripts, online KScripts, and online Shell Scripts. You can also edit offline KScripts and online KScripts with the XML editor.

Scoped users can view the details of all scripts, but they can save changes only to those to scripts that affect the devices or labels that are associated with their scope. For more information about scoped users, see Add or edit User Roles.

1.
Go to the Script Detail page:
a.
Log in to the appliance Administrator Console, https://appliance_hostname/admin. Or, if the Show organization menu in admin header option is enabled in the appliance General Settings, select an organization in the drop-down list in the top-right corner of the page next to the login information.
b.
On the left navigation bar, click Scripting, then click Scripts.
c.
Display the Script Detail page by doing one of the following:
▪

Structure of importable scripts

Structure of importable scripts

You can create a script in an external XML editor and import it to the appliance.

Imported scripts must conform to the following structure:

•
The root element <kbots></kbots> includes the URL of the KACE DTD "kbots xmlns="http://kace.com/Kbots.xsd">...<kbots>
•
One or more <kbot> elements.
•
Exactly one <config> element within each <kbot> element.
•
Exactly one <execute> element within each <config> element.
•
One or more <compliance> elements within each <kbot> element.

The following is an example of the XML structure for an appliance script:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<kbots xmlns="http://kace.com/Kbots.xsd">
<kbot>
<config name="name="" type="policy" id="0" version="version="" description=
"description="">

<execute disconnected="false" logged_off="false">
</execute>

</config>
<compliance>
</compliance>
</kbot>
</kbots>

In the preceding example, the </config> element corresponds to the Configuration section on the Script Detail page. This element is where you specify the name of the policy or job (optional), and the script type (policy or job). Within this element you can also indicate whether the script can run when the target device is disconnected or logged off from the appliance.

You can specify whether the script is enabled and describe the specific tasks the script is to perform within the <compliance> element.

Tip:
 
TIP: To create a script that performs some of the same tasks as an existing script, duplicate the existing script, and open it in an XML editor. The script’s <compliance> element gives you an idea of how the script works, and how you can change it. See Duplicate scripts.
