Control Webhook data
Webhooks are very limited in what they provide without triggering another API call to pull in more information. The ability to control the payload within the webhook endpoint creation screen would be a huge help in interfacing with other programs. The ability to add static data to the payload (like we can already do to the header) or be able to add dynamic data through attribute support.

Expand Webhook triggers
If we had the ability to choose which webhook events to subscribe per endpoint (https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/46289557-support-choosing-which-webhook-events-to-subscribe), the addition of more triggers would be valuable in automating and validating workflows.
Here are some of the possible triggers:
abm.device.removed
profile.added
profile.updated
profile.removed
application.added
application.updated
application.removed
script.added
script.updated
script.removed

Expand '\n' as carriage return in script output
When running scripts via the SimpleMDM web interface, the log/history of a script run shows as a single line.
It would be convenient to be able to see multi-line output within the web interface (instead of having to copy and paste the log output into a text document and then doing a find & replace of '\n' characters in order to be able to read it).

Support macOS 14 Software Update Enforcement
macOS 14 adds some sort of software update enforcement capability. While the UI is unknown the MDM parts have been outlined here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/softwareupdateenforcementspecific?changes=latest_minor&language=objc
Please support this ASAP so we can test the UI and functionality.

Electronic invoicing (PDF file)
Hi,
for accounting, companies need invoices in PDF format to process them in programs like Datev, SAP etc. Currently, the only way to get the PDF invoice is to download it manually from the simple MDM website. It should be possible that these PDF invoices are automatically sent to the companies by mail.

Support custom MDM commands
I'd like to see SimpleMDM support sending custom MDM commands with arbitrary payloads. Advantages being...
- Customers don't have to wait for SimpleMDM to implement new commands to start testing. With WWDC coming up this is especially pressing because new commands and/or keys need to be tested quickly during the summer beta cycle for any chance at improvement.
- Possible to test beta/RSR updates by passing in the product key to a software update command.
- WS1 has this feature and please don't make me say anything nice about WS1.
As an example, here's how WS1 implements it with the author using EnableRemoteDesktop. …

ability to allow admin to decide if end user can or cannot control their date and time zone settings
For some users, we want to allow them to control time zone while for others we want to lock it down. It'd be nice to have the option.

Disable big popup window from Managed Software Centre
Hi!
We use SimpleMDM on our rental/production macs, not as office computers. And I have gotten feedback that sometimes the "Managed Software Centre" pop up on the middle of the screen, when an update has been waiting for a few days.We want a way to turn this off, since we dont want a suddenly popup on the screen in middle of an event/production/show. And sometimes we have an event for a week or so, and dont want to update a program during that week. Would be nice if it was possible to turn of the popup either on each…

Manage Munki pkginfo settings via API
Add API Endpoints to enable management of the pkginfo settings for an app via the API. This would allow us to manage keys as part of our automation process

Allow the removal of generated local-admin passwords
When a device has been factory reset, its auto-generated local admin password gets a second, third etc entry depending on how many times it has been wiped.
Once confirming the older local admin passwords are no longer necessary, we should be allowed to remove them to avoid confusion

Checking the "Select All" checkbox should apply to ALL enrolled devices (not just the first 100)
Meaning if I want to push an Apple VPP update to all enrolled devices, clicking the "Select All" checkbox only applies to the first 100 (as the ceiling).
We currently only have 105x macOS devices enrolled, but are in the process of bringing over 850x others from VMWare Workspace ONE in a way that's "zero touch" for the user.
You can imagine us having to click the "Select All" checkbox on each 9x pages containing 100x devices/each would be inefficient.Screenshot is from my work Gmail and is just an example of what I would see implemented.

Ability to sort Apple VPP app by the version installed on device
So I'm not clicking the Select All checkbox --> clicking Actions - Install Update for users who are already on the latest version (example in screenshot being v2.0.25 as the latest for that app)

Ability to rollout Profiles and Pkgs to shards of devices
The basic idea would be to give each device a shard automatically (but allow it to be overridden) and then be able to set a release schedule for profiles and applications.
For example, on the assign page for a profile, you could select "Shard this assignment" and then be able to select 7 days and have the profile released to (total devices / 7) on each day. Would also need the ability to stop the rollout.
We currently do this in our internal munki with an installable_condition.4 votes -
Combine assignments into groups for easy viewing
Allow the ability to create a group/folder in the App Assignments menu to allow the grouping of assignments. We will have a lot of iPads that require individual apps. This will make it quite cumbersome to parse through.
If we could group the assignments into a folder and title it based on department, viewing the assignments would be a lot easier.

Support API key expiration
API keys currently never expire. A key can be regenerated to effectively expire it, but there's no way to do so by time. I'm specifically asking...
- Add support for API keys to expire after 30, 60, 90 days, by timestamp, or never.
- Optional. Let the API regenerate or expire keys. Ends up being a one key rules them all situation. Up to debate whether this is a secure approach.

Implement more granular API permissions
In https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/32990482-scope-api-key API permissions were split up to correspond with API endpoints. While a welcome change, it doesn't go far enough in providing granular access to sensitive MDM actions. Since the the /devices endpoint contains so much (device update, info, restart, shut down, lock, erase, etc.) it is a prime target were an API key to be compromised.
I am asking for API permissions to be split up to be even more granular by MDM command. An API key which only needs to enable/disable remote desktop should not also be able to lock or wipe the device. While I don't…

Allow Configurable Log Retention
I would like to be able to customize the log retention filter and length. Not all device logs are needed for longer than 30 days, however important access logs and commands such as locking devices should be able to be kept for much longer.
Alternatively or in addition, having a built in log pipeline to a SIEM would be great. Pulling logs out of the API is a bit of a hassle.1 vote
