Note
Rosetta 2 is required to run x64 (Intel) version of apps on Apple Silicon Macs. To install Rosetta 2 on Apple Silicon Macs automatically, you can deploy a shell script in Endpoint Manager. To view a sample script, see Rosetta 2 Installation Script. Prerequisites
Ensure that the following prerequisites are met when composing shell scripts and assigning them to macOS devices.
Devices are running macOS 10.13 or later.
Devices are managed by Intune.
Shell scripts begin with ! and must be in a valid location such as !/bin/sh or !/usr/bin/env zsh .
Command-line interpreters for the applicable shells are installed. Important considerations before using shell scripts
Shell scripts require that the Microsoft Intune management agent is successfully installed on the macOS device. For more information, see Microsoft Intune management agent for macOS.
Shell scripts run in parallel on devices as separate processes.
Shell scripts that are run as the signed-in user will run for all currently signed-in user accounts on the device at the time of the run.
An end user is required to sign in to the device to execute scripts running as a signed-in user.
Root user privileges are required if the script requires making changes that a standard user account cannot.
Shell scripts will attempt to run more frequently than the chosen script frequency for certain conditions, such as if the disk is full, if the storage location is tampered with, if the local cache is deleted, or if the Mac device restarts. Create and assign a shell script policy
Sign in to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager Admin Center.
Select Devices macOS Scripts Add .
In Basics , enter the following properties, and select Next :
Name : Enter a name for the shell script.
Description : Enter a description for the shell script. This setting is optional, but recommended.

Run script as signed-in user : Select Yes to run the script with the user's credentials on the device. Choose No (default) to run the script as the root user.
Hide script notifications on devices: By default, script notifications are shown for each script that is run. End users see a IT is configuring your computer notification from Intune on macOS devices.
Script frequency: Select how often the script is to be run. Choose Not configured (default) to run a script only once.
Max number of times to retry if script fails: Select how many times the script should be run if it returns a non-zero exit code (zero meaning success). Choose Not configured (default) to not retry when a script fails.
In Scope tags , optionally add scope tags for the script, and select Next . You can use scope tags to determine who can see scripts in Intune. For full details about scope tags, see Use role-based access control and scope tags for distributed IT.
Select Assignments Select groups to include . An existing list of Azure AD groups is shown. Select one or more user or device groups that are to receive the script. Choose Select . The groups you choose are shown in the list, and will receive your script policy.
Note
Shell scripts assigned to user groups applies to any user logging in to the Mac.
Updating assignments for shell scripts also updates assignments for Microsoft Intune MDM Agent for macOS.
In Review + add , a summary is shown of the settings you configured. Select Add to save the script. When you select Add , the script policy is deployed to the groups you chose.
The script you created now appears in the list of scripts. Monitor a shell script policy
You can monitor the run status of all assigned scripts for users and devices by choosing one of the following reports:
Scripts select the script to monitor Device status
Scripts select the script to monitor User status
Important
Irrespective of the selected Script frequency , the script run status is reported only the first time a script is run. Script run status is not updated on subsequent runs. However, updated scripts are treated as new scripts and will report the run status again.
Once a script runs, it returns one of the following statuses:
A script run status of Failed indicates that the script returned a non-zero exit code or the script is malformed.
A script run status of Success indicated that the script returned zero as the exit code. Troubleshoot macOS shell script policies using log collection
You can collect device logs to help troubleshoot script issues on macOS devices. Requirements for log collection
The following items are required to collect logs on a macOS device:
You must specify the full absolute log file path.
File paths must be separated using only a semicolon (;).
The maximum log collection size to upload is 60 MB (compressed) or 25 files, whichever occurs first.
File types that are allowed for log collection include the following extensions: .log, .zip, .gz, .tar, .txt, .xml, .crash, .rtf Collect device logs
Sign in to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center.
In Device status or User status report, select a device.
Select Collect logs , provide folder paths of log files separated only by a semicolon (;) without spaces or newlines in between paths.
For example, multiple paths should be written as /Path/to/logfile1.zip;/Path/to/logfile2.log .
Important
Multiple log file paths separated using comma, period, newline or quotation marks with or without spaces will result in log collection error. Spaces are also not allowed as separators between paths.
Select OK . Logs are collected the next time the Intune management agent on the device checks in with Intune. This check-in usually occurs every 8 hours.
Note
Collected logs are encrypted on the device, transmitted and stored in Microsoft Azure storage for 30 days. Stored logs are decrypted on demand and downloaded using Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center.
In addition to the admin-specified logs, the Intune management agent logs are also collected from these folders: /Library/Logs/Microsoft/Intune and /Library/Logs/Microsoft/Intune . The agent log file-names are IntuneMDMDaemon date--time.log and IntuneMDMAgent date--time.log .
If any admin-specified file is missing or has the wrong file-extension, you will find these file-names listed in LogCollectionInfo.txt . Log collection errors

In Review + add , a summary is shown of the settings you configured. Select Add to save the script. When you select Add , the script policy is deployed to the groups you chose.
The script you created now appears in the list of custom attributes. Monitor a custom attribute policy
You can monitor the run status of all assigned custom attribute profiles for users and devices by choosing one of the following reports:
Custom attributes select the custom attribute profile to monitor Device status
Custom attributes select the custom attribute profile to monitor User status
Important
Shell scripts provided in custom attribute profiles are run every 8 hours on managed Macs and reported.
Once a custom attribute profile runs, it returns one of the following statuses:
A status of Failed indicates that the script returned a non-zero exit code or the script is malformed. The error is reported in the Result column.
As status of Success indicates that the script returned zero as the exit code. The output echoed by the script is reported in the Result column. Frequently asked questions Why are assigned shell scripts not running on the device?
There could be several reasons:
The agent might need to check-in to receive new or updated scripts. This check-in process occurs every 8 hours and is different from the MDM check-in. Make sure that the device is awake and connected to a network for a successful agent check-in and wait for the agent to check-in. You can also request the end-user to open Company Portal on the Mac, select the device and click Check settings .
The agent may not be installed. Check that the agent is installed at /Library/Intune/Microsoft Intune Agent.app on the macOS device.
The agent may not be in a healthy state. The agent will attempt to recover for 24 hours, remove itself and reinstall if shell scripts are still assigned. How frequently is script run status reported?
Script run status is reported to Microsoft Endpoint Manager Admin Console as soon as script run is complete. If a script is scheduled to run periodically at a set frequency, it only reports status the first time it runs. When are shell scripts run again?
A script is run again only when the Max number of times to retry if script fails setting is configured and the script fails on run. If the Max number of times to retry if script fails is not configured and a script fails on run, it will not be run again and run status will be reported as failed . What Intune role permissions are required for shell scripts?
Your assigned-intune role requires Device configurations permissions to delete, assign, create, update, or read shell scripts. Microsoft Intune management agent for macOS Why is the agent required?
The Microsoft Intune management agent is necessary to be installed on managed macOS devices in order to enable advanced device management capabilities that are not supported by the native macOS operating system. How is the agent installed?
The agent is automatically and silently installed on Intune-managed macOS devices that you assign at least one shell script to in Microsoft Endpoint Manager Admin Center. The agent is installed at /Library/Intune/Microsoft Intune Agent.app when applicable and doesn't appear in Finder Applications on macOS devices. The agent appears as IntuneMdmAgent in Activity Monitor when running on macOS devices. What does the agent do?
The agent silently authenticates with Intune services before checking in to receive assigned shell scripts for the macOS device.
The agent receives assigned shell scripts and runs the scripts based on the configured schedule, retry attempts, notification settings, and other settings set by the admin.
The agent checks for new or updated scripts with Intune services usually every 8 hours. This check-in process is independent of the MDM check-in. How can I manually initiate an agent check-in from a Mac?
On a managed Mac that has the agent installed, open Company Portal , select the local device, click on Check settings . This initiates an MDM check-in as well as an agent check-in.
Alternatively, open Terminal , run the sudo killall IntuneMdmAgent command to terminate the IntuneMdmAgent process. The IntuneMdmAgent process will restart immediately, which will initiate a check-in with Intune.
Note
The Sync action for devices in Microsoft Endpoint Manager Admin Console initiates an MDM check-in and does not force an agent check-in. When is the agent removed?
There are several conditions that can cause the agent to be removed from the device such as:
Shell scripts are no longer assigned to the device.
The macOS device is no longer managed.
The agent is in an irrecoverable state for more than 24 hours (device-awake time). Why are scripts running even though the Mac is no longer managed?
When a Mac with assigned scripts is no longer managed, the agent is not removed immediately. The agent detects that the Mac is not managed at the next agent check-in (usually every 8 hours) and cancels scheduled script-runs. So, any locally stored scripts scheduled to run more frequently than the next scheduled agent check-in will run. When the agent is unable to check-in, it retries checking in for up to 24 hours (device-awake time) and then removes itself from the Mac. How to turn off usage data sent to Microsoft for shell scripts?
To turn off usage data sent to Microsoft from the Intune management agent, open Company Portal and select Menu Preferences uncheck 'allow Microsoft to collect usage data' . This will turn off usage data sent for both the agent and Company Portal. Known issues
No script run status: In the unlikely event that a script is received on the device and the device goes offline before the run status is reported, the device will not report run status for the script in the admin console. Additional information Cached
