Add Slack universal installer to Shared Apps
I found that Slack has a universal installer available on their website, but only the Intel version is in the Shared Apps library. It would be nice to be able to push the universal version from Shared Apps instead/in addition.
(link here, under the "Distribute Slack" section: https://slack.com/help/articles/360035635174-Deploy-Slack-for-macOS)
Thank you!

Support a device's local time for Software Update Policy for iOS profiles
Currently the start hour and end hour for the profile is based on the account's time zone in the settings. Since we operate devices around the globe, we'd like to easily set one time frame for all devices across our sites. E.g. 7pm to 7am and a checkbox enabled for "Use device's local time".
4 votesThis option is now supported within the Software Update Policy for iOS profile.

Add Scripts and Script Jobs to API
Feature Request: Add Scripts and Script Jobs to API
Currently the "Scripts" and "Script Jobs" functionality is only supported when using the SimpleMDM web console via a browser.
- Scripts: https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/scripts
- Script Jobs: https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/script_jobs
With the goal to support custom advanced automation for our machine provisioning processes and integration with other configuration management systems, we need the ability to:
Requirements:
- Create/Update (Upload) and Delete Scripts
- Support multipart/form-data by default (similar to other SimpleMDM APIs)
- List and Get Scripts, including:
- Script ID
- Script name
- Full script contents
- Created/Updated timestamps
- Create Script Jobs
- List Script Jobs
- Get Job Status
- Get Job Log /…

Log entries for when the Bootstrap Token is escrowed or rotated would be helpful for debugging, compliance, and device health.

Specify package install order during prestage
The prestage_installer pkg that gets used when more than one pkg is assigned to a device group doesn't currently have a method to specify installation.
Some vendors supply their products as multiple packages and some have dependencies of one being installed before another (see: jamf Connect trying to run the installed app if it doesn't detect a LaunchAgent on disk that is installed by another .pkg). For reasons like this, being able to guarantee the order of pkg installation is key.
This request is to implement a way to specify the order of installation from the portal that is used…

Implement "SetAutoAdminPassword" to allow DEP created admin account password rotation
SetAutoAdminPassword allows changing the password of a local admin account that was created by Setup
Assistant during DEP enrollment via the AccountConfiguration command. It is available in macOS v10.11 and
later. This would be useful to allow admin password rotation. Ideally this would also available via the API.11 votesThis is now supported (with some limitations). Documentation is available here: https://help.pdq.com/hc/en-us/articles/5626064805659-macOS-Account-Setup-and-Admin-Passwords

Devices API should indicate if phone is in lost mode
The following API
GET https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/devices
Lists detailed information about the device status underattributes
.We would like to see an additional attribute for when the device was placed in lost mode and if the device is currently in lost mode.
For example:
{
"is_in_lost_mode": true,
"lost_mode_active_at": "2021-07-13T16:00:54.000-07:00",
}
Since we have a large fleet of devices, we periodically place some of that fleet into lost mode if they go missing, using your existing API.
We would like to build out reporting which would require having lost mode information available in the API.
4 votesThe "lost_mode_enabled" key has been added to the Devices API.
The Logs API can be used to get "lost_mode.enabled" logs to see when the device issued a response indicating that it received the "Enable Lost Mode" command successfully.

Allow admins to set 'Remote Desktop Enabled' for all devices
A freshly built macOS 12.1 machine can only have Remote Desktop / screen sharing enabled using MDM. Currently, this can only be done on a per machine basis using 'Enable Remote Desktop' option or API call. It would be great if we could: -
Set 'Remote Desktop Enabled' at a global level for all macOS devices that are in SimpleMDM.
Have the ability to set it on multiple machines at once by ticking the box next to the device and setting from the 'Actions' menu.
6 votesRemote Desktop can now be enabled/disabled on multiple devices at once via the main Devices page, as well as enabled automatically when a device enrolls. To enable this for enrollments, see the option under Enrollments > Settings.

Please add support for both M1 and Intel versions of Adobe CC installer in the shared catalog
