Hi Dojo,

Does anyone know if it's possible to fetch the MAC Address, from the PC which is connecting to Cube, inside of an automation script?

We would like to be able to showcase specific information depending on the PC which is used to trigger an Automation Script. To show devices close to them.

Kind regards,

Hi Stacey,

As far as I know, it’s not possible to get the client’s MAC address in an automation script (unless it’s triggered from a visual overview).

However, you can extract the client hostname. Would that help for what you try to achieve?

Hi Ive,

Many thanks for your comment. I can rework my design to get it triggered from a Visual, and then use the [fistMAC] or [thisMAC] placehoder.

Hi Stacey,

As Laurens mentioned, I do not believe it is possible to do it directly from within the script but if the script is launched from a Visio, I think it should be possible to use the [firstmac] option.

This value would then be passed into the script via an input parameter.
