I think that an ios app catalog/in-house app store would be a great feature.

From What's new in WWDC 2021:

MDM vendors can subscribe to real-time notifications for state changes to assignments, assets, and registered users, so they don’t need to continually request the latest state. The notifications are opt-in, and vendors will receive notifications for just the types they subscribe to in client configuration. Features include:
• Assignment notifications: Notify in real-time exactly what assignments have successfully been performed and to which devices.

It would be nice to be able to Apply a Single Profile to a Large Number of groups all at once since currently it can only be done on a one-by-one basis.

The Apple MDM Spec includes huge amounts of dock configuration options for MacOS, but I can only use those with custom configuration profiles at the moment. I would love to be able to choose what items are in the docks for specific profiles, maybe even a UI that would allow us to add Shared and VPP apps to the dock.

I deploy User Enrolment and Automated Enrolment devices using the VPP apps function.

Currently I need the "Install macOS VPP apps using this MDM channel" to be device level install for Automated Enrolment devices.

However this breaks the User Enrolment devices to deploy VPP apps.

Can you add an option to allow VPP app deployment by deployment type (i.e. User for User Enrolment, Device for Automated Enrolment)?

Thanks, James

Please integrate Munkireport, Sal, or some type of reporting and smart group criteria functionality. It would be lovely to have hosted reporting built into SimpleMDM. Munkireport is the most obvious choice due to the sheer amount of great modules available. Thank you!

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?

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.

We would like to use unique firmware password with the option to rotate the password, in case we have to share the password with the user at some point. Currently that would only possible with moving the device to a group without a firmware password, clear the firmware password and assign the device back to the original group.

Maybe there is a possibility like building a mechanism that sends out multiple commands (one to clear the password and one to set it again), which would effectively "rotate" the firmware password.

The ability to send scheduled messages, for example everyday at 6am remind our employees to clock in.

Add ability to use the SimpleMDM API to create new assignment groups using Munki. This is currently not possible and add new assignment groups are standard types.

Being able to login with Google Workspace, O365, Okta, etc.. credentials would be a great feature

Currently the only profiles that can be managed via the API are custom configuration profiles.

Please extend management of the profiles to include all the profiles that can be created within the SimpleMDM web console so that these profiles can also be managed with the API.

Given there is no ability to assign devices to multiple device groups, using the API to ensure all device groups get the profiles required is the only means of ensuring consistent application of profiles to device groups.

Ability to parse by device type when performing batch jobs via Devices endpoint.

device_family [string]
The device's Apple product family: iPad, iPhone, iPod, Mac, or AppleTV. This key is valid in X-Server-Protocol-Version 2 and later.

Users:
GET https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/users
- return all users and role relationship
PATCH https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/users/{USER_ID}/{ROLE_ID}
- update user to specific role

Roles
GET https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/roles
- return all roles and user relationship
POST https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/roles
- create a new role
PATCH https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/roles/{ROLE_ID}
- update existing role
DELETE https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/roles/{ROLE_ID}

Extend logs to include what has actually changed when a "device.edited" event occurs.

For example I can select a number of machines that need the admins attention or the team and put a red colour filter on them. Also sort or filter a list via its label/Colour/Flag what ever.

Off the back of that I can tag any of the admins on a specific device and it can notify them of that specific device.

Having GlobalProtect as a VPN option would be a great addition.

Please support the normal managed_installs order, e.g. alphabetical order so that one can specify the order that munki managed installs get installed in by naming packages alphabetically.
