Recovery Lock Enablement in macOS Using the Jamf Pro API

You can access the management ID of target computers only in the Jamf Pro API by executing a command in Terminal similar to the following:

curl --location --request GET 'https://YOUR_JAMF_PRO_URL/api/preview/computers' --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN'

The default response contains information for 100 computers. If you have more than 100 computers in your environment, you can add the following to the endpoint URL to expand the response:

?page=#	Retrieves a specified page in the response
?page-size=###	Increases the number of computers contained in each page of the response. The maximum number is 2000.

To expand the response, execute a command in Terminal similar to the following example:

curl --location --request GET 'https://YOUR_JAMF_PRO_URL/api/preview/computers?page=2&page-size=2000' --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN'

The following code sample demonstrates how to set Recovery Lock with a password:

curl --location --request POST 'https://JAMF_PRO_URL/api/preview/mdm/commands' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer JAMF_PRO_AUTH_TOKEN' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
