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
}
]
}1 voteSince 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.

Add column sorting to apps
When looking at all devices with an installed app, it would be nice to be able to sort by the columns instead of only sorting by device name. This would let me sort to see what devices have old versions of an app installed instead of having to copy and paste into an excel file.

The ability to set "Auto Lock to Never"
We really need to set Auto Lock to Never as part of the "Restrictions" profile, is this possible?
1 voteThe 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”.

API endpoint to show if macOS device has user channel enrolled
It would be helpful for us to have an API endpoint that can tell our integrations whether or not the user channel has been enrolled for a macOS device. This could be as simple as a true/false; bonus points if we can somehow get the user name (not sure if MDM spec permits this).

increase app upload size
Currently unable to upload software installers over 2000MB. With the addition of Munki and further MacOS integration, it would be helpful to increase upload size. This is especially true on packages like Adobe CC. I am sure there are other examples out there.
1 voteUpload size limit has been increased to 4 GB. If additional capacity is needed, please open a new feature request with information on the particular package you are wishing to upload, including its size.

Apply specific profiles to device in admin console
Now that the API allows us to apply profiles to a specific device, having this functionality extended to the admin console would be quite useful.
There are definitely scenarios where I want to have the non Mac admin members of my team simply be able to log in and add/remove profiles to specific devices.Follow up suggetion relating to https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404/suggestions/31773355
1 voteThe ability to assign profiles directly to devices via the admin UI was added a few years back. Looks like we missed updating this post.

Device Last Seen Date
Previously, when I would inspect our catalog and view the installed applications, the "Device Last Seen" column would display the date of when the device was last seen online.
Now it displays text like "About 1 month ago".This makes it difficult for us to use the data in reports since "3 Days Ago" will change every day but the report that I run today will still show "3 Days Ago" even if I look at it next week.
Would it be possible to go back to the old way of displaying the Last Seen information (date format)?Thank you.

Don't deploy macOS Software Update profile to Big Sur
SimpelMDM shouldn't deploy macOS Software Update profiles to Big Sur. Big Sur has a bug that reads the com.apple.SoftwareUpdate CatalogURL preference when running software updates and causes an NSURL error.
If you're still deploying a software update server for older versions of macOS Big Sur won't be able to receive updates unless you move those Macs to another group without the profile (doesn't scale well) or SimpleMDM implements a fix that doesn't install the profile on Big Sur and removes the profile if it's already installed.
The ideal solution would be https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/40838419-allow-profile-installation-dependent-on-macos-vers but unless it's going to be implemented very…
1 voteThe CatalogURL key is no longer supported in macOS 11+. As a result, this key will no longer be specified in profiles that are delivered to macOS 11+ devices. The key will also automatically be removed on devices that are upgraded.

Add Individual Office365 Packages to Shared Munki Catalog
A couple months ago the Microsoft Office 365 package was added to Shared Apps in Munki. I have been testing it and find that the large package takes a long time to install and if individual packages have been installed previously, it wants to overwrite those with another full install. It also requires all Office apps to be closed for the install - and since the full package takes longer it's more downtime to users than if individual packages were being updated. I'd like to request that the standalone installers (including OneDrive) are considered for the shared app catalog as…

For our accounting I need the VAT-Amount/Percentage on the invoice.
Also in case it is 0%.
