Fails to find classic-advanced-computer-searches with '+' in the name

You should be encoding the '+' as '%2B'

Thanks for the report. There are actually two separate issues, and your example triggers both because you're connecting through the Jamf Platform Gateway (/api/proclassic/tenant/...).

1. jamf-cli encoding (fixed). The CLI was sending the + literally in the path (…/name/Aged%205+%20Years). The classic API form-decodes + to a space, so it was actually searching for Aged 5 Years → 404. We now percent-encode it as %2B (and checked that this isn't impacting other special chars). Verified against a direct instance connection:

GET /JSSResource/advancedcomputersearches/name/Aged%205%2B%20Years  -> 200

The fix will be in the next release and resolves the problem for direct (oauth2 / token) pro connection profiles.

2. Platform Gateway (server-side, escalated). Your request routes through the gateway, and the gateway's proclassic proxy is not handling the +. I've fed this back internally to our Platform API public beta channel. + seems to be the only character impacted, tested with all others fine.

Workaround until the gateway fix ships (gateway connections only): look it up by id, which the gateway proxies correctly. You can grab the id from list:

jamf-cli pro classic-advanced-computer-searches list -o json | grep -B1 'Aged 5+ Years'
jamf-cli pro classic-advanced-computer-searches get <id>

Note that apply and delete by --name already work through the gateway even with a +, because they resolve the name via list internally rather than the /name/ path — it's specifically get --name / update --name that depend on the affected endpoint.

I'll leave this issue open to track the gateway-side fix.
