Support for Apple's MDM Beta Management - Enrolling devices into betas during ADE
Apple introduced a new API endpoint in their MDM Beta Management feature update in April 2024; this allows organisations to auto enrol devices into beta programs as part of ADE deployments.
It would be very useful if this feature could be added to SimpleMDM as it would allow organisations to specify a beta OS version that a device should have installed as the minimum version when proceeding through Setup Assistant, avoiding the need to manually sign into iCloud on a device in order to get beta seed options in the Software Update systems setting pane.
6 votesThe option to enroll and force a device to update to a beta OS version during ADE has been added under the Minimum OS Version Requirement section on the Automated Enrollment/DEP Settings page.

Extend the assignment group API to support the new profile assignment feature.
The new ability to assign profiles via assignment groups (with varying priority levels) is huge, and is going to make a big difference in our environment...
...but, there's not currently scope to
a) assign profiles to assignment groups via the API
and
b) you can't set (or update) the profile priority in an assignment group via the API
Please can we have this added to the API too?
3 votesThis has just been added. Updating assignment group priority level via API coming soon.

Add device EID from DeviceInformationResponse.QueryResponses.ServiceSubscriptionProperty command
Hello,
as part of eSIM distribution it will be very nice to have EID of the devices accessible via API in device details (adding EID to portal will be also nice).
Can you please add EID to each device from MDM command (this command is already in use by SimpleMDM for other data) https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/deviceinformationresponse/queryresponses/servicesubscriptionproperty
Thank you David.

Support account-driven user enrollment
Initially announced at WWDC21 [1], macOS, iOS, and iPadOS devices starting with iOS15 and macOS Monterey support a workflow called account-driven user enrollment [2]. This workflow differs from the existing user enrollment methodology in that it uses a slightly different protocol and requires the implementation of a session token on the MDM provider side.
We are interested in the account-driven workflow because it removes the need to distribute enrollment profiles or have users visit an enrollment URL and download / install the profile. The improved UX, when combined with this year's promised release of federated authentication to more providers in…

Respect local time zone of iOS devices when applying a software update window
Currently, the software update window is a singular entity, which means some units in Europe would be updating in the middle of the day for units in the USA. Implementing a method to either auto-detect local time of the units or specify a time zone in the profile would help solve this.

API support for enabling/disabling Bluetooth of an iOS device
I have an automated process to configure enrolled devices using SimpleMDM API, and recently there is a need to enable/disable Bluetooth depending on the device groups, which is currently not available for the API.
I understand that I can use the restrictions profile to prevent supervised devices from changing Bluetooth settings, and I can enable/disable BT from the Devices page, but it would be great if SimpleMDM can add this ability to the API, so I can integrate it into my automated process.3 votesThis is now supported: https://api.simplemdm.com/#enable-bluetooth

Report on Rapid Security Response versions
Apple is adding a new update type to macOS called Rapid Security Responses. These updates change the build version, but not the OS version reported. Instead, the new ProductVersionExtra (
sw_vers
) and SupplementalOSVersionExtra (MDM query) keys are returned to denote a specific supplemental version only when a RSR is installed. If no RSR is installed the key is not present. Similarly, when using MDM query (simulated with /usr/libexec/mdmclient QueryDeviceInformation) BuildVersion is unchanged, but SupplementalBuildVersion has the correct RSR build.$ sw_vers ProductName: macOS ProductVersion: 13.3 ProductVersionExtra: (a) BuildVersion: 22E7752300f
…$ /usr/libexec/mdmclient QueryDeviceInformation { BuildVersion = 22E5230e; OSVersion = "13.3";

Add "Run Script" option to Actions menu
A “Run Script” option in the Actions menu on both individual devices and any selected devices from a listing would be very helpful. Ideally, clicking it would pop you into the create job UI and pre-populate the “Run on” field with either that one device or any selected devices. This would speed up creating script jobs especially for multiple machines.
