Basic Authentication authentication now disabled for the Jamf Pro Classic API as of Jamf Pro 11.5.0

As a follow-up to my earlier post on Basic Authentication being deprecated for the Jamf Pro Classic API (first announced as part of the release of Jamf Pro 10.35.0), Jamf has disabled Basic Authentication support for the Jamf Pro Classic API as Jamf Pro 11.5.0.

One thing to note is that this change does not impact Cisco ISE integration, which also uses Basic Authentication.

For those looking now to transition away from Basic Authentication for connecting to the Jamf Pro Classic API, I’ve written a couple of shell script functions to assist with getting the bearer tokens now used for API authentication for the following categories:

• Jamf Pro API clients
• Jamf Pro user accounts
