  2. Report on profile status - pending, installed, failed

    SimpleMDM currently only surfaces profile assignment in the main profiles UI. To see the status of a specific profile on a device an admin must navigate to a device record. What information isn't readily available is the status of a profile. Even if it's assigned to 100 devices, there's no way to tell how many of those devices the profile successfully installed.

    Specifically asking...
    - Add three columns to the view at /profiles in the UI - installed, pending, failed.
    - In the profiles and custom profiles API endpoints include data about these status as well.

    The major driver behind…

  3. Store more information for deleted devices

    Deleted devices have very little paper trail to them shown in the web console. If we have the ability to store the custom attributes, notes and who deleted the device with the deleted devices, that would be a huge help in understanding why a specific machine was deleted without searching through other sources.

  4. Schedule a Script Job using API

    Currently, there does not appear to be a way to schedule the execution of a script job with API.

    I need this to continue implementing a Terraform provider dedicated to SimpleMDM.

    It would be nice if that was added during the creation of a Script Job in the API. The goal would be to have the three prossibilites offers by the UI like :
    - Run ASAP
    - Run later
    - Run reccuringly

    The API documentation mentions that a job can be canceled. However, since scheduling a job is not currently supported, this functionality seems limited.

  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. Add option to flag device as stolen - alternate default group and email alerted when a specific SN enrolls

    In a scenario when a device is stolen we can flag it as stolen in the SimpleMDM interface and have email alerts be sent to the SimpleMDM Admin's when that SN registers with the service. Additionally, it would be handy to have a separate default group for devices flagged as stolen so if the OS is reinstalled and the device re-enrolls it doesn't end up in the company's default group.

  9. allow user roles who (only) see their own device

    The idea here is to make our employees trust in the MDM solution. I'd like to give them read-only-access to SimpleMDM to see
    1) what is configured
    2) what I can see about their device
    3) what is NOT possible (I frequently get the question "can you read my e-mail now?")

    Currently, the lowest level of access still allows to see ALL settings, accounts and apps installed on ANY device.

    Being able to restrict the app-listing (similar to the settings in "Allow secret information visibility") would be a helpful feature.

    Even better would be linking the SAML-identity from the Enrollment…

  11. Add new Microsoft Teams to Shared Catalog

    Microsoft is rolling out an updated Teams experience or Mac, with a new binary that can be installed alongside the Classic teams experience. Please add the standalone installer to the shared catalog alongside the existing Teams (and possibly rename teams to Classic, like MS does?) https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2249065

  12. Review your web portal to make it mobile responsive

    It would be great to make your web site responsive when it is displayed on a mobile device.

    I daily use my iPhone with Safari to remotely restart some iPads that are lock in security stands. The web admin portal is not responsive, so I have to scroll the web site to view all info and sometimes the text is overlaying.

  13. Require latest minor version during enrollment

    Ideally there should be a "latest minor version" option with the same logic as the Software Update profile when you enforce a minimum OS version during enrollment.

    And a separately configured minimum major version would complement it nicely.

  14. Admin Console Banner

    Allow customization of the banner at the top of the admin pane after login. Currently you have a banner that states:

    "You are currently viewing the new Ul for the Devices page. If you would like to temporarily switch back to the old view, click here."

    We have a specific requirement to add a banner to any system with user-added content about what type of data is allowed to be uploaded. It would be awesome to be able to customize the banner to add a message to users of the system.

  16. Make the `app_usage_data` portion of Munki optional

    Having just confirmed with Eric and others in the Slack channel that SimpleMDM's Munki instance doesn't make use of the app_usage_data feature in Munki - would it be possible to create a toggle to turn it off?

    Additionally there are some global regions where tracking this kind of stuff falls foul of local privacy laws...

    ...and it's upset my privacy focused end users.

    Thanks in advance

  18. Schedule Regular Application Updates

    Similar to scheduled iOS update policy, we would love to see clients check in for applications in our catalog and perform regular scheduled non-business hours updates. This would be for all Apps (VPP and Enterprise).

    When updating enterprise app binaries, users sometimes reject the "Smart Update" if they feel it interrupts their workday, so a regular daily or weekly check in to our catalog by the devices to find the most recent app version available would keep all devices current across both VPP and enterprise apps.

  19. Add Support for Munki Conditionals to SimpleMDM's Munki Implementation

    Munki includes the ability to set "conditionals" for items in specific manifests to provide granular controls over the installation or appearance of items.

    For example, if I have a multi-site organization, I can set a conditional on a NOPKG item that installs a printer so that the printer install NOPKG only shows up if the device user is connecting to Munki from a specific subnet. This allows me to refine the view of available self-service printers so that, for example, the printers available at Site A only show up if the user's local IP address matches the subnet at Site…

  20. Include "less than macOS version" and "greater than macOS version" for profile scoping

    It would be very helpful to be able to define "less than" and "greater than" macOS version when scoping profiles. For example, I would prefer to specify "less than macOS 12" for a profile to apply to all versions of macOS 11. As it is, I have to update the maximum OS version every time a new dot release comes out.
