  1. Add an ability to deliver any type of file to the device

    I have been writing scripts that export files (company logos, custom apps without signatures, etc) from base64 encoded strings and while it works it is tedious to do.

    It would be nice to have a form on the admin portal where we can upload a file or set of files (of any type) and specify the file path where we would like those files to be deployed on the managed device.

    The Add Media function already has pdf and epub covered here, but this would dramatically expand the delivery capabilities of the MDM.

  2. Support architecture specific assignments for custom applications.

    It would be nice if I could specify that a custom app should only be installed on arm or intel machines.

  3. Specify package install order on joining an app assignment group

    I can see that this request has been marked completed:

    https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/44830375-specify-package-install-order-during-prestage

    and I've tested the package order stuff in our environment - and it works really well... but ONLY for pre-stage setups. And they don't always work.

    So - if an end user needs to manually enrol a device either via an enrolment link or a sudo profiles -N command to re-trigger an automated enrolment then all that awesome install logic disappears, and the packages get installed in what seems to be a random order. As Eric says in that feature request:

    "Some vendors supply their products as multiple packages…

  4. Collect RAM inventory data

    Hello,

    We would like to see the amount of RAM a computer has from within SMDM, within each device inventory and on the Device tab as an extra column.

    Our team is looking to refresh hardware, and RAM is the main criteria, but we are unable to gather this data, and everymac.com information is not accurate.

    Note that this feature request is separate from the "report on mac model, installed ram and cpu type," because we are not looking to access the data via API.

  6. Control Webhook data

    Webhooks are very limited in what they provide without triggering another API call to pull in more information. The ability to control the payload within the webhook endpoint creation screen would be a huge help in interfacing with other programs. The ability to add static data to the payload (like we can already do to the header) or be able to add dynamic data through attribute support.

  7. 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.

  8. Include a 'Devices' (or 'Assigned Devices') tab on a device group page

    When inspecting a device group, it would be very helpful and handy to have a tab to inspect/manage the devices associated with that group.
    Currently you have to go back to the Groups page, find the desired group, and then click on the number in the Assigned Devices column to look at the devices in that group and perform any management activities on them.

  9. add the ability to deploy individual files/folders to macOS

    I would like the ability to deploy individual files or folders to our Mac devices.

    Sometimes an app has an additional config file that needs deployed to make it work. We also use PDQ Connect in our environment, and that allows for us to can create packages that contain .msi, .exe, or PowerShell or CMD scripts, then also have the option to attach additional files to use in the package (see screenshot).

    Also, there are times where we may just need to send a file/folder to all devices. Something else besides an app, profile, or script. A simple option to…

  10. Route SSO-only users to their account-specific SSO

    When our SSO-only users go to a SimpleMDM bookmark in their browser, they get routed to the email/password login page. Since SSO login (via SAML) requires an organization-specific sign-in page, they don't know where to go to sign in.

    A suggestion that I hope would help here would be to route a user whose account is SSO-only to their organization's SAML login page so that they can complete their sign-in flow. This could either be letting them enter their email on the existing login page or having a button on the page for "Log in via SSO" so they could…

  13. Make the IMAP Path Prefix option available

    When creating accounts on devices for IMAP Mail servers, we need to set the IMAP Path Prefix so the folders behave properly.

    With SimpleMDM we currently can't set that, but we can with .mobileconfig Plist files.

  17. report on mac model, installed ram and cpu type

    The plan is, we'll be populating an asset management system with our MDM data... and the team setting it up would like this data tracked too

    Not sure if the MDM API allows for gathering this information - but it does - this would be really helpful for us.

    Thanks

  18. Add column for updates on Devices screen

    It would be good to see if a device has an update from the Devices Screen, rather than just when you go in to the device settings. This would be useful for non-DEP devices that are unable to have the auto update function enabled due to them not being enrolled in DEP.

    Would be goot to be able to push the update from that screen also.
