How ro run a raw command using runscript in BatchAdminCommand?

[budachst]

I want to run a dscl on macOS to change some user's password. I successfully did that using a single id as a target using a service class. I am trying to get that working using an uber class approach, but the command alsways gets rejected with this error

40006, 'message': 'Command is not valid'. I am constructing my BODY payload like this:

{
  "base_command": "runscript",
  "command_string": "-Raw=```dscl . -passwd /Users/someuser %s```" % (newPW),
  "batch_id": "BATCHID",
  "optional_hosts": [
    "HOST1",
    "HOST2"
  ],
  "persist_all": true
}

If I leave the -Raw= and the backticks out, the command gets executed and the result returned, but I need the -Raw option, since I want to run an OS specific command.

Does using a command_string set to

"command_string": "runscript -Raw=```dscl . -passwd /Users/someuser %s```" % (newPW)

work?

Oh wow… that was counter-intuitive, but that did the trick! Thank you!
