We had helpers set up new Macbooks this Summer and many of them forgot to create the local admin account and inadvertently made the local student account an administrator rather than standard user. Is there a way to push a local admin account to all devices via Meraki without having to touch each one? Is there a way to demote current local admin accounts to standard users? ie, a script that looks if a local account exists but does not match "admin" it gets set to standard? Thank you
@kaiser_sosea : Do it with API calls

He means on the macbook not the Meraki dashboard.
@PhilipDAth : oh yes, my mistake !
@kaiser_sosea While you can push and admin account via Meraki (you have to script it) you cannot demote an exisiting account.
I would suggest using something like Jumpcloud as it allows you to do exactly what you are wanting and you could deploy their agent using systems manager.
Do you have an example of the appropriate script and where in Meraki you assign it to push to the MacBooks?
