Push scripts and or terminal commands to macOS clients
I need to be able to push scripts and terminal commands to my macOS clients from my MDM solution.
If this was in place, it would open up a lot of possibilities for tighter integration with a package distribution system like Munki.
See the new “Scripts” feature on the side navigation menu.

Sounds great! I can't find any documentation though

+1 RE the tighter integration on the munki side. It's a bit unfortunate that if you do have autopkg for bringing in all your software into SimpleMDM that automatically deploying software to endpoints is limited by whether or not the software comes in the form of a signed PKG. Being able to leverage managedsoftwareupdate commands along with the LocalOnlyManifest (https://github.com/munki/munki/wiki/Preferences) would allow us to push individual and groups of apps - regardless of packaging format -, and remove the current reliance on users manually triggering these installs & updates from Managed Software Center.
