Implement FileVault recovery key rotation in UI
It would be convenient to be able to rotate FileVault recovery keys from within the SimpleMDM UI as documented here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/rotate_the_filevault_key rather than running the
fdesetup
Terminal command via script or using the API to accomplish this.1 voteHi Eddie,
Thanks for the post. This option is already supported in SimpleMDM. It is available when the existing recovery key is stored in MDM.

list which groups are assigned a profile in the Profiles UI
In the Profile UI I can see how many groups are assigned the profile, but I can't see which groups those are.
This request is to add some sort of UI to display which group names (and maybe a direct link to said group) are assigned the profile. It would make troubleshooting the discovery of which group is missing the profile easier, etc.
20 votesA list of groups with a specific profile assigned can now be viewed in the admin interface. To view the groups with a profile assigned, go to the Profiles page, look under the "Groups Assigned" column next to the profile name. If the profile is assigned to any groups, you can click the number to view those groups.

Enable Remote Management
Apple docs suggest there is an Enable Remote Management MDM command available, I can also see Remote Desktop Enabled as a field in the device Security section- would be useful to have a per device / per group option to enable this for the MDM-generated admin account. Handy for those of us still using ARD, and easier than signing up for a developer account building a signed package just to run a shell script.
5 votesPlease find a new “Enable Remote Desktop” action on the device details screen.
