Dedicated place to request additions to Shared Apps
It would be helpful to have a dedicated place to submit requests for new apps to be added the Shared Apps (for Munki). We can do it here of course, but seems like maybe it needs it's own section?
16 votesThis is now available. SimpleMDM has been added to PDQ's Package Request form: https://simplemdm.pdq.com/hc/en-us/p/packageRequest
Note: The form template currently covers all PDQ products so the language may be slightly different, but requests for SimpleMDM will go towards SimpleMDM's Shared Apps Catalog.

Allow upload and assignment of custom .mobileconfig files
As an advanced feature, allow admins to upload unsigned .mobileconfig profiles created in iPhone Configuration Utility to DeviceLink and subsequently assign them to multiple individual devices OR multiple groups.
This will allow new and customized mobile configurations to be used in DeviceLink should it not fully support a desired configuration.

Create restriction groups
Create different groups of restrictions and make it possible to apply these restrictions on serveral groups of devices.
This way you don't have to manually set the restrictions every time.

Include Custom Attributes in export
With custom attributes I now have a place for my asset tags and assigned to values, but these values are not exportable. Even the API makes it very hard to retrieve these fields.

API to retrieve custom attribute values for all devices
I have to periodically examine and update (where needed) a custom attribute for all the devices in our fleet. This currently requires one API request (with paging) to retrieve the list of devices, and then one request for each and every device to retrieve the custom attribute value. With 2500 devices this is already prohibitively slow.
An API call that returns the custom attribute values for all devices would solve this neatly and speed up the code thousandfold.
15 votesCustom attribute values are now included in the response from the Devices endpoint. Use the query param to include custom attributes that have been marked as secret: https://api.simplemdm.com/#list-all-6

IKEv2 VPN support
It doesn't look like IKEv2 connection type is supported in the UI. This would be useful with attribute support so that we can add accounts per device and have the username and password assigned in the profile.

SimpleMDM supports scenarios where more than one device object may exist for a given serial number. Additionally, device objects do not always have serial numbers attached to them. For instance, a new device record may be created before device enrollment occurs. Such being the case, a serial number cannot function as a unique ID.
Nonetheless, the Device – List All API endpoint has been expanded to support searching for devices based on serial number, UDID, phone number, and name. This allows for more efficient device ID lookups. More information is available here: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#list-all39

Would be great to have the possibility to apply a custom profile to a specific device without having to create a new group!

Add extra fields to the device list
The device list currently displays:
Device Name Initial Group Model Status Serial Number EnrollmentIt would be useful to be able to customize the fields being shown to include or exclude any of the fields available, including custom attribute fields.
15 votesCustom attributes and additional fields can now be displayed on the devices index page. Click the gear in the table to select more columns.
If there are additional specific attributes you would like, please create a new request.

Possibility to lock account name during enrollment
LockPrimaryAccountInfo and put use of the saml login name
from:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/accountconfigurationcommand/commandand if possible collect the users full name from the saml login.
15 votesLockPrimaryAccountInfo is now available as of macOS 10.15.4. Earlier versions of macOS have a bug that prevents this feature from functioning reliably.
SAML attributes can be saved to a device’s custom attributes. Under the “Authentication” tab in Enrollment details, SAML authentication types include an option to “Allow provider to set custom attributes”.

Add scheduling flexibility for iOS Auto Update Policy
As many businesses are limited to which day(s) of the week upgrades can be performed, adding more versatility to the scheduling would be very helpful.

Button to force/request device details
Add a button to request device details.
Example: When adding/removing an app to/from devices, it takes up to an hour for the portal to reflect the changes. It would be nice to push a request for the data, especially when we don't have the luxury of waiting an hour.15 votes -
Enrollement links - Security Issue
Current enrollment links are not secure, links are permanent and for unlimited use. If some will steel or simply he will trying random number from 000000000 to 999999999, he will sooner or later find link with valid invite.
This have multiple issues:
1) License price, if i will enroll 1000 devices to someones mdm he will pay 3000$ in best case scenario or also 30000$, of course SimpleMDM will refund this but it is lost on both sides and lost of trust2) if the person will enroll to group with some login/security details (wifi, vpn, mail, network shares etc)…

Support iOS 9's Per Device Licensing
In iOS 9, apps distributed through an MDM which supports it can now be associated directly with a device rather than an Apple ID.
This would significantly simply many large-scale deployments of purposed devices by removing the need for an admin to set up an Apple ID for each device.

add an "auto-join" feature to wifi profiles
I've noticed that configurator (and other MDMs) have an "auto-join" option that can be set when you create a wifi profile. I think this might help solve an issue we're having where we can't force devices onto a specific network. I'm hoping that judicious use of "auto-join" will allow us to select the correct network for a device via SimpleMDM

Allow bulk import of GUID and passwords for DEP-created accounts
Allow for the bulk import of information on DEP auto-created admin accounts. An API or UI that allows for the entry of serial number, GUID, and password for accounts created before the release of the Auto Admin feature. This would permit us to get rotation of the password without having to redeploy.
12 votesI'm marking this one as closed/completed because, since the initial release of this feature, we added the ability to reset admin passwords for an auto-admin account regardless of whether or not the password was already stored. I believe the current functionality achieves the original intent of this suggestion. If there is additional functionality you'd like to see added related to this, please submit a new suggestion.

Lookup exact model
Based on https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201300 you could show the exact model names.
This would be useful to see the age of our Macs and distinguish between 13 and 15 inch models.
Today this information is only available in the export.
