Tines Stories

Best practices

These are best practices to be followed by Fleeties when creating and sharing Stories.

• Include a note with what credentials/resources need to be set before running.
• Remove your email from the monitoring section.
• If actions are device-specific, prefix the Story with the platform. Examples:
  • windows-story.json
  • mac-update.json
  • apple-device-location.json — If the command applies to more than just Macs, use apple as the prefix.
• After exporting, open the .json file and:
  • Double-check to make sure your Fleet email (or any other confidential information) isn't in the contents.
  • Add an empty newline at the bottom of the file.

Apple device location

A custom MDM command sent through Fleet to get a device's location. It pauses for 30 seconds after sending the command, so that the device can report back its location before Fleet attempts to retrieve it.

A device needs to be locked (known as "Lost Mode" in the Apple world) before the location can be requested.

Apple's documentation for this command can be found at Device Location.
