1. More granularity on the SimpleMDM menu bar icon...

   So, we've just rolled out Nudge and have used the SimpleMDM agent to do so. And now I'm being grumbled at about the Managed Software Centre Icon taking up valuable menu bar space...

   I appreciate I can kill it via the UI - but it's a bit all or nothing, and when we start adding apps to self-service, the menu bar app seems as good a place as any to direct our end users.

   So - can we set icon visibility per assignment group?

   I think what I'm basically saying is if all apps are managed, and there's no self-service then hiding the menu bar icon totally makes sense, but allowing it to appear when you DO have self-service items makes sense (to me)

2. Regex Rules for Custom Attribute Validation

   Description: It would be highly beneficial to have the ability to use regular expressions (regex) to validate user-defined custom attributes in SimpleMDM. This feature would allow administrators to set specific rules and patterns that user inputs must adhere to, ensuring data accuracy and consistency.

   Use Case: For example, suppose an organization has a custom attribute for employee IDs. By implementing regex rules, the administrator can define that the employee ID must follow a specific format, such as a combination of letters and numbers. Any user input that does not match the defined regex pattern would be flagged as invalid, preventing incorrect or inconsistent data from being entered.

   Benefits:
   1. Data Accuracy: Regex rules will help enforce consistent data entry by ensuring that user inputs meet the specified patterns or formats.
   2. Prevent Errors: By validating user inputs against regex rules, potential errors or typos can be caught and corrected before they cause issues downstream.
   3. Customization: Administrators can tailor regex rules to match their organization's specific requirements, enabling greater flexibility and control over data validation.

   Implementation: The addition of a regex rule field within the custom attribute settings would allow administrators to define the pattern that user inputs must match. SimpleMDM could then validate the input against the regex rule and provide immediate feedback if the input is invalid.

   Overall, the inclusion of regex rules for custom attribute validation would enhance the data integrity and usability of SimpleMDM, providing administrators with greater control over user or admin inputs.

3. Nested Custom Attributes

   Description: It would be extremely useful to have the ability to nest custom attributes in SimpleMDM. This feature would allow administrators to create custom attributes that reference or depend on other custom attributes, enabling dynamic and interconnected data management.

   Use Case: For instance, suppose an organization has a custom attribute called "munkimanifestdepartement" that is a dropdown value in the DEP (Device Enrollment Program) welcome screen. The organization also wants to create another custom attribute called "munkimanifest" that includes the department value selected in "munkimanifestdepartement" along with additional static text. By nesting the custom attribute "munkimanifestdepartement" within the "munkimanifest" attribute, the organization can automatically generate the munki manifest value based on the selected department.

   Benefits:
   1. Automation: Nesting custom attributes would automate the process of generating complex values by dynamically incorporating data from other attributes.
   2. Data Consistency: By linking attributes together, administrators can ensure that related data remains consistent and up to date.
   3. Simplified Management: Instead of manually updating multiple attributes, nested custom attributes would allow for easier management and maintenance of interconnected data.

   Implementation: The addition of a feature to nest custom attributes in SimpleMDM could be achieved by introducing a syntax or placeholder system that references other custom attributes within the attribute value. Administrators could use placeholders or variables to dynamically include the value of other attributes when defining the value of a custom attribute.

   Overall, the ability to nest custom attributes in SimpleMDM would enhance data management capabilities by enabling automation, ensuring data consistency, and simplifying attribute management.

4. New notification options

   I'd love for a lot more notification options. Given SimpleMDM's position on the device already, it hopefully shouldn't be too heavy of a lift.

   • New User added
   • User priv changes
   • OS update skipped
   • Device visible (after being offline)

   This is off the top of my head, but I'm sure I could come up with quite a few more given some time.

5. Add support for ZIP and XIP as well as DMG

   A fair number of apps are distributed as ZIPs (and one prominent app uses XIPs) instead of DMGs. It would be convenient to be able to upload these as is, instead of having to locally convert them to DMGs first $(unzip App.zip && hdiutil create -format ULMO -o App.dmg -srcfolder App.app)

6. Allow SimpleMDM to release devices in ABM/ASM

   Allow SimpleMDM to release devices without having to sign in to Apple Business Manager. This feature is enabled by default when you add an MDM server in ABM/ASM. You can remove this feature by deselecting the option for any new or existing MDM servers you created.

   But SimpleMDM has not implemented this feature yet. Would be nice to automate the decommissioning process of the devices.

9. Custom Configuration Profiles API - Download the profile as a JSON object, not a text object

   Currently it looks like the download method for the custom configuration profiles API returns the profile being downloaded as a text object not a JSON object.

   The preferred (at least for me) response object that should be returned is a JSON object in keeping with all other responses.

10. Option to auto renew ACME Certificates - DDM and Profiles - Managed Device Attestation

    We would like an option to have ACME certificates auto renew. This is a feature currently available for SCEP issued certificates.

    Our use case is using managed device attestation and the new ACME payloads to create certificates that can be used for 802.1x, but we need them to auto renew before they expire (for internal reasons the validity period is 91 days).

    It would also be helpful to provide tokenised values for the CN.

13. An option to automatically whitelist any apps assigned to a device group.

    By default, we restrict what apps can be installed on iOS devices. Right now, if I want to deploy a VPP app to an iOS device, I have to add it to the device assignment AND remember to go to my restrictions profile and whitelist it.

    I suggest that all assigned apps be automatically whitelisted, or at least have a setting that can turn on this automatic whitelisting if the SimpleMDM admin selects it.

    Thanks!

15. Add option to delete after wipe

    (Or a similar control to ensure devices are never unenrolled before the wipe command is received.)

    If you send a wipe command to a device that is currently offline, and then remove that device from SimpleMDM before it comes back online, the device will only be unenrolled from SimpleMDM and not wiped.

16. Support large API uploads

    SimpleMDM support responded to me raising reliability issues with large API uploads with:

    The file upload limit using the API is 5GB (10GB using the GUI). Because of how uploads are processed via the API vs. when using the GUI, there are more points of failure that could potentially interfere with the upload process completing successfully, especially for larger files that take longer to upload.

    Because of this, it is recommended to upload larger files using the GUI. Larger uploads may not always fail when uploading using the API, so you're not hurting anything by continuing to try but, if larger uploads continue to fail, using the GUI should be successful.

    In my experience the API cannot reliably handle uploads larger than 1GB.

    Please make the API reliable for any size upload up to the GUI limit of 10GB.

18. Better Profile Management

    When creating new profiles, it would be awesome if it showed settings that only applied to the device type(s) you have selected.

    For instance i have some profiles that are for IOS only, some are Mac OS Only, and some apply to both.

    It would be awesome for profiles that are IOS or MacOS, ETC Only to show settings that can be configured for those OS's only just to cut down on clutter and confusion.

    Most of the options are already tagged IOS/MacOS and then the option to apply to profile to device types is already there so it would really just be some improving upon information thats already available.
