  2. Add a column for notes/location on the Devices screen

    On the main Devices screen, add a column for a notes field to detail location (probably a separate one from what's in the Device details/Settings tab so that can be used for more detailed info), so I could add info like "2nd floor", "Pam's office", etc and have it sortable & searchable

  3. Add Last Reboot detail to Devices

    I'd like to be able to see when a device was last rebooted. If not in a column on the main Devices page, at least in the info tab of Device Details.

  5. Profiles API - add/set attributes for OS type, min and max OS version, and Mac architecture

    The current profiles API method to list all profiles doesn't return the scope data that is configured in the management console, and there are no means to set these attributes via API methods (per https://api.simplemdm.com/#profiles as at 2022-09-26).

    Please update the list all and retrieve one methods to return this scope data.

    Please also add a method to update existing profiles with values for this scope data.

    The scope attributes specifically are:
    - setting the OS type
    - setting the minimum macOS version the profile can be installed on
    - setting the maximum macOS version the profile can be installed…

  6. Run scripts based off certain parameters.

    Ex: If certain apps aren’t downloaded when the Mac is scanned every hour it runs the specified script or scripts.

    Basically add If statements to install apps and run scripts.

  8. pause kiosk mode

    Pause Kiosk mode when needed for quick fixes then "resume kiosk mode" option to turn back on once problem solved that required Kiosk mode to be disabled. Timed resumption if no inputs made would be great, Example from ManageEngine MDM attached, very useful.

  9. Display the Raw Payload Key when hovering over Human Readable descriptions

    Apple's documentation for payload keys (e.g. Restrictions - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/restrictions) and the translated human readable description in the SimpleMDM Profile creation UI can cause confusion because what is described may not be obvious what key is actually being set.

    I suggest when hovering over the Simple UI description in the SimpleMDM portal the actual, raw payload Key be displayed so there is no confusion as to what preference that is setting.

    For instance, if I hover over "Allow restricting USB connections if locked" in the Restrictions Profile, it should show "allowUSBRestrictedMode".

  10. allow download of native SimpleMDM Profiles

    Custom Configuration profiles are able to be downloaded from the portal but not profiles that were created in the SimpleMDM portal UI.

    As an admin it would be great to be able to download the raw profile from the server for a number of reasons:
    1) Documentation
    2) Version control
    3) Sanity of knowing what is being delivered to systems
    4) Save time to not have to find a machine with the profile scoped and parse the output of profiles, which isn't the raw profile in it's full either.

    Thanks,
    Eric

  11. Communicate New Shared App Versions to Administrators

    I would like to be able to have one or more SimpleMDM administrators in a SimpleMDM tenant be notified via email, Slack integration, or other methodologies when SimpleMDM's team adds a new version of a Shared Munki application to the Catalog.

    This would facilitate clearer communication of the existence of new app versions in a scenario where we are not simply choosing to install the latest version of everything from the Shared app catalog.

  12. Custom Attribute value override listing

    Custom attributes can be set at the default, group, or device level.
    It would be really handy to have a way to see which group/device has a value that overrides the default value.

    I'd like to see a link style like Profiles to identify groups and devices that have custom value set for a specific attribute. The subsequent linked view would have each device and its value for that attribute.

  13. Display/Add "Script description" while selecting a script to execute "New Job"

    Here are my feature request as detailed in my screenshot below

    When you have many scripts the name of the script is not enough to describe the script. The best would be to add a description in addition to the script name

  15. 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…

  16. 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

  19. Add Sublime Text 4 to shared apps

    Version 3 is currently in there, but EOL, so I think adding v4 makes sense.

  20. Add Sublime Merge to shared apps

    There is precedent for this, as an old Intel-only version of SourceTree is in the shared app library.
