Hello, Im using this script to get the serial number of my machine.
Output: Hardware Overview:
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac9,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.26 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: IM91.008D.B08
SMC Version (system): 1.44f0
Serial Number (system): H0021W0953333
\" | grep \"Serial\""
end tell
Result:
" Serial Number (system): H0021W0953333"
What would i need to add in to just retrieve "H0021W0953333 as my output, instead of " Serial Number (system): H0021W0953333"
Thanks
Resolved: Thank you chown33, this worked for me.
Code:
set sys to do shell script "/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType " without altering line endings
set StringVariable1 to "Serial"
set Serial_Number to (do shell script "echo \"" & sys & "\" | grep \"" & StringVariable1 & "\"") as text

Replace your multiline AppleScript code with this one line:
Code:set Serial_Number to do shell script "/usr/sbin/system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial/ { print $NF }' "
