  1. Search option in DEP Info of Automated Enrollment group for device list

    Can we get a search field like we have in the Devices list but in the Devices > Enrollments > [enrollment name] > DEP Info > DEP Devices? Right now it is a static list and can only show 20, 50, 1000, or all devices. With over 2000 devices in the list it would be handy to be able to search by Serial Number to determine if the machine is in the list or not. Selecting the “all” option takes a fair amount of time to list all the devices when all I want to know is if the machine…

    This was added a while back but looks like we forgot to mark it complete. Device search is now possible on DEP Info page.

  3. API add ability to push updated app to all installs

    The API currently allows for updating an existing binary: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#update-2 But this does NOT push out the update to all installs like it gives you the option of doing on the Web UI.

    Please add a boolean flag (maybe "push"?) or something similar to the the app update endpoint so that I can update the app binary and push it out all in one command.

    We are currently working to automate our app deployment process with a CI solution and not being able to push the app forces us to open SimpleMDM on the web and push out the update…

    The MDM feature you are referring to is already available under the “Passcode Policy” payload. The key, specifically, is “Maximum auto-lock time” and the value you’re interested in is “Infinite”.

    Worth noting is that Apple MDM does not actually let you specify the auto-lock time on a device. Rather, it lets you specify a maximum value only, then permitting the user to specify their own value that meets your requirements. If Apple expands these capabilities in the future, we will be happy to implement them.

    Finally, there is one way to disable auto lock and that is in conjunction with single app lock. If you are planning on restricting the user to just one app, you can use a “Single App Lock” profile, select the app, and check the box next to “Disable auto lock”.

  5. Make Automated Enrollment information available via the SimpleMDM API

    Ideally we could access the following via the API...

    Interactive:

    • Trigger a Sync with DEP

    Basic Info:

    • Server Name
    • Organization Name
    • Token Expiry
    • Last Sync

    DEP Device Info
    - Serial Number
    - Model
    - Last DEP Check-In
    - Linked Device

  8. ability to see per-device logs via the API

    Right now you can query the logs via the API. Which is great! :) BUT - you have to pull ALL log events and then parse through them.

    I'd love the ability to pull the logs for a specific device via the API - which is clearly something you can do in the WebUI via filters and voodoo.

    My end goal is being able to query if a lock.enabled command is in the logs, so I can confirm a device has received a remote lock command.

    But I'm sure being able to query individual device logs for other entries would…

  9. Show app version on app assignment page

    We sometimes upload different versions of the same app for assignment to different devices. On the app assignment page, it is difficult to see what version I'm assigning without actually clicking on the app link and seeing the version on the app page.

    Please show the app's version directly on the assignment page.

    Location coordinates are available by hovering over the markers in the Location section on the Device Details page. I will close this request for now, but if there additions that you would like to see, please do not hesitate to reach out to us or submit a new suggestion.

    LockPrimaryAccountInfo is now available as of macOS 10.15.4. Earlier versions of macOS have a bug that prevents this feature from functioning reliably.

    SAML attributes can be saved to a device’s custom attributes. Under the “Authentication” tab in Enrollment details, SAML authentication types include an option to “Allow provider to set custom attributes”.

  12. API: Retrieve one Custom Attribute

    Can we get API to retrieve one Custom Attribute?

    Call can be like "set value" just with get:

    HTTP Request

    GET https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/devices/{DEVICE_ID}/custom_attribute_values/{CUSTOM_ATTRIBUTE_ID}

    Response: as it is when retrieving all:

    {
    data: [
    {
    type: customattributevalue,
    id: nameofattribute,
    attributes: {
    value: valueofattribute
    }
    ]
    }

    Since this request was submitted, we did add this API: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#get-values-for-device


    This will return all custom attributes for a device (so you would just need to parse the response to get the specific attribute you are looking for).


    I believe this should allow you to accomplish your goals so I will close this request, but if it does not, please do not hesitate to reach out to us and/or submit another suggestion.

  13. Pull (available) MAC Addresses from supervised devices to improve device onboarding

    Currently, SimpleMDM by default pulls the WiFi MAC address for all supervised devices, but does not pull ethernet MAC address.

    During our device onboarding process, some of our Apple devices do not configure themselves over Wifi, and hence it is more valuable for us to pull the eth card MAC address instead (which now has to be manually copied by hand/scanned from device packaging/pulled from Network settings in MacOS).

    We would like the option for SimpleMDM to retrieve both the WiFi and ethernet MAC Address (if available) for all supervised devices.

    iOS 13+ and macOS 10.15+ will provide MAC addresses for additional devices beyond just the wireless network interface.

  14. Make "Consumed Licenses" available via API

    Make the consumed device licenses in SimpleMDM available via the API, in a new call or perhaps available via the account payload.

    This could be extended to plan details. The argument could be made that this count could be inferred from number of active devices... I don't see why this couldn't be its own API endpoint, returning an example such as:

  16. Add notification payload support for macOS

    10.15 Beta 6 adds ability to parse notification payload (from iOS) on macOS. This is useful for whitelisting management apps that we always want to be able to show notifications to users.
