    I believe all of these options have been added since the time of this post so I will close this for now. But if there is anything we have missed, please do not hesitate to submit a new suggestion. Thanks!

  2. Allow greater configuration of Web Content Filters (FilterBrowsers)

    The Web Content Filter profile creator does not support all the features offered by Apple (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/webcontentfilter). In particular, configuring Crowdstrike Falcon requires setting a FilterDataProviderBundleIdentifier and associated permissions that are not configurable in SimpleMDM. This necessitates using a custom profile right now.

    This is now supported in the native Web Content Filter profile in SimpleMDM.

  3. Support custom attributes in scripts

    Now that scripting is here, it would be great to be able to tap into the custom attributes from within a script.

  5. Add "id" Field to "Export Devices" csv file

    The "Export Devices" button that exports the list of devices to a CSV file is fairly robust and provides a lot of good information. However, obtaining the id for any given device has proven to be excruciating. The ONLY way to get a device ID is to the devices API call. Since pagination is limited to 100 pages and the only way to get to more pages is to have the last id number of the last call to fill in the "starting_after" field, Power Query is not feasible since it will throw errors if a query is dependent on…

    Devices IDs are included in the "ID" field in the Devices Export (first column).

  6. Maximum macOS version scope value on custom config profiles + provided profiles

    The new Minimum macOS version scope is very helpful.
    Can you please implement a Maximum macOS version scope to limit profiles (such as the KEXT whitelist profile) to stop profiles being deployed to macOS versions.

  7. Add a base Hashicorp Vagrant "Shared App" to the list

    Since quite a few people use Hashicorp Vagrant, and Docker is trying to make money again.
    Adding a basic install of Vagrant to the list of Shared Apps would probably benefit quite a few people.

    Stretch goal: Letting folks submit munki recipes to be approved and shared, since most of us just use AutoPKG with the simplemdm plugin.

  9. API to retrieve custom attribute values for all devices

    I have to periodically examine and update (where needed) a custom attribute for all the devices in our fleet. This currently requires one API request (with paging) to retrieve the list of devices, and then one request for each and every device to retrieve the custom attribute value. With 2500 devices this is already prohibitively slow.

    An API call that returns the custom attribute values for all devices would solve this neatly and speed up the code thousandfold.

  12. Customized Managed Software Centre

    It would be great to have a way to customize the Munki Managed Software Centre now that Munki integration is part of the beta. If there was a way to apply something like Munki Theme Creator files (https://grovetech.co/blog/munki-theme-creator-for-munki/) This would be amazing.

    SimpleMDM's Munki integration now supports the ability to set a custom banner image for the Managed Software Center. Here is a link to the KB documentation: https://docs.simplemdm.com/article/144-munki-settings


    I will mark this suggestion as completed for now so that users will get their votes back, but if there are additional changes / MSC customization options that you would like to see implemented, please do not hesitate to submit a new suggestion.

  13. Make available the list of user accounts that exist on MacOS systems.

    Apple's MDM protocol allows the list of users to be queried from managed systems:

    https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/list_the_user_accounts?changes=latest_minor&language=objc

    It would be very helpful for us if this information could be displayed in the SimpleMDM Web UI. Thank you!

  15. Google Chrome version for both M1 and Intel.

    The Google Chrome version supplied in Munki it's pointing to the Intel version of the app which doesn't work well for M1 laptops, where the M1 version of the app is hybrid and work properly in both Intel and M1 chips. Would it be possible for you to change the source so it deploys the hybrid app and not the Intel one?

    Google Chrome in the Shared App Catalog has been upgraded to the universal binary version. Additionally, the application now allows the end user to enable auto updates if they so desire.

  16. Allow scoping of profiles via Device OS type (eg. Macs / iOS / iPadOS)

    Its often the case where iOS devices and macOS devices have differing passcode policies (user experience of a entering complex passwords on touchscreen keyboard).

    Currently it's not possible to scope one passcode profile to different OS types. Same goes for custom profiles.. if you are using them, often profiles that don't apply to an iOS device end up being deployed unnecessarily (and hopefully ignored).

    Extending the scope for OS types would be very useful.

  17. Add new RingCentral app to shared apps.

    RingCentral is moving to their all in one RingCentral app (aka Glip) for both desktop and iPhone. It would be nice to see this added to the Shared Apps for deployment.

    https://www.glip.com/downloads

    RC Phone and RC Meetings will be deprecated soon.
