API call to unenroll a device without deleting it
Hi. I would like to be able to unenroll a device which MDM profile is locked without removing it completely in SimpleMDM. The deletion eventually fills the need but in the action, we can loose important informations from the device custom attributes.

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

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

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.17 votes -
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.

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.
15 votesCustom attribute values are now included in the response from the Devices endpoint. Use the query param to include custom attributes that have been marked as secret: https://api.simplemdm.com/#list-all-6

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.
41 votesSimpleMDM'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.

WWDC21 - Add support for real-time ASM/ABM assignment notifications
From What's new in WWDC 2021:
MDM vendors can subscribe to real-time notifications for state changes to assignments, assets, and registered users, so they don’t need to continually request the latest state. The notifications are opt-in, and vendors will receive notifications for just the types they subscribe to in client configuration. Features include:
• Assignment notifications: Notify in real-time exactly what assignments have successfully been performed and to which devices.3 votesThis was added years back but we missed updating this post until now.

Dedicated place to request additions to Shared Apps
It would be helpful to have a dedicated place to submit requests for new apps to be added the Shared Apps (for Munki). We can do it here of course, but seems like maybe it needs it's own section?
16 votesThis is now available. SimpleMDM has been added to PDQ's Package Request form: https://simplemdm.pdq.com/hc/en-us/p/packageRequest
Note: The form template currently covers all PDQ products so the language may be slightly different, but requests for SimpleMDM will go towards SimpleMDM's Shared Apps Catalog.
