  2. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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?

  7. 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!

  9. 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.

  10. Enable deploying apps via the "Managed Update" Munki manifest functionality

    I want to be able to update apps on machines enrolled in SimpleMDM without installing those apps, through the SimpleMDM Munki Integration, so that I can patch vulnerabilities on certain machines, but without targeting those machines directly.

    This reduces the amount of work I need to do, and if in the future, an employee installs an older, vulnerable version SimpleMDM will update that app, without me installing it on everyone.

  11. 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.

  12. 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.

  14. lock message for Macs

    The Apple MDM framework has allowed a message to be sent with a lock command since macOS 10.14.

    Please add a way to send a message to Macs with the lock command in the SimpleMDM interface.

    You may find that selecting the “Hide Device-Assigned Profiles” option from the dropdown menu above the profiles listing achieves the view you are looking for.

  17. Shared Apps addition

    Hey!
    Would it be possible to add FortiClient (https://www.fortinet.com/support/product-downloads#vpn7) and Omnidisksweeper (https://www.omnigroup.com/more) to the library of Shared Apps?

    Thanks!

    OmniDiskSweeper has been added to the catalog. Unfortunately, FortiClient is now distributed as a web-based installation package and therefore cannot be installed via SimpleMDM nor Munki.

  18. Rotate Firmware Password option

    We would like to use unique firmware password with the option to rotate the password, in case we have to share the password with the user at some point. Currently that would only possible with moving the device to a group without a firmware password, clear the firmware password and assign the device back to the original group.

    Maybe there is a possibility like building a mechanism that sends out multiple commands (one to clear the password and one to set it again), which would effectively "rotate" the firmware password.

    This is now available. Verified firmware passwords can be rotated by clicking the "rotate" icon next to the firmware password field on the Device Details page.

  20. Allow Profile installation dependent on macOS Versions

    Allow certain profiles to only be deployed to certain versions of macOS.
    I would like to be able to deploy certain profiles ONLY if the current macOS version is 10.16 or above. The MDM spec reports the OS version so using this as criteria for profile deployment would be a big enhancement going forward.

    OS version scoping is now available for System Extensions, Kernel Extensions, and Custom Configuration Profiles. Scoping functionality will continue to be added to other profiles in the near future.
