  1. allow download of native SimpleMDM Profiles

    Custom Configuration profiles are able to be downloaded from the portal but not profiles that were created in the SimpleMDM portal UI.

    As an admin it would be great to be able to download the raw profile from the server for a number of reasons:
    1) Documentation
    2) Version control
    3) Sanity of knowing what is being delivered to systems
    4) Save time to not have to find a machine with the profile scoped and parse the output of profiles, which isn't the raw profile in it's full either.

    Thanks,
    Eric

  2. Display the Raw Payload Key when hovering over Human Readable descriptions

    Apple's documentation for payload keys (e.g. Restrictions - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/restrictions) and the translated human readable description in the SimpleMDM Profile creation UI can cause confusion because what is described may not be obvious what key is actually being set.

    I suggest when hovering over the Simple UI description in the SimpleMDM portal the actual, raw payload Key be displayed so there is no confusion as to what preference that is setting.

    For instance, if I hover over "Allow restricting USB connections if locked" in the Restrictions Profile, it should show "allowUSBRestrictedMode".

  4. Run scripts based off certain parameters.

    Ex: If certain apps aren’t downloaded when the Mac is scanned every hour it runs the specified script or scripts.

    Basically add If statements to install apps and run scripts.

  5. Allow Log Filter to Include API

    Currently when filtering the Logs, you can filter by the user making the change, but you cannot filter by API key. I would like the ability to quickly see the recent logs that the API has made.
    This may be classified as a bug, but was asked to submit here anyway.

  7. Managed Application Installation Status

    There should be some way in the console (and API) to see the installation status of apps deployed through SimpleMDM, using statuses like "Installed", "Pending", "Error", etc.

    Currently, you can see which apps are installed on a device, but there's no way to identify applications that should or will be installed, whether we're waiting for the device to come online, or if there's been an error in the installation process.

    In a standalone Munki environment I would could use Sal/MunkiReport as requested in https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/40754131-integrate-munkireport-or-sal

    Alternately, I can also forward the Munki logs in /Library/Managed Installs/Logs to a SEIM like Splunk…

  8. Move Rosetta 2 install from global enrollments to per enrollment groups

    Some of our enrollments need Rosetta 2, while others we do not want them. We have to resort to adding a package to the groups that need them. It would be nice to have this option.

  9. Expose Custom App "Pre-stage priority" in API

    The Custom App Screen (https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/apps/{APP_ID}) allows for a configurable "Pre-stage priority" for Device-level App Installation during DEP enrollment. This value has a pre-set range of 0-10 (inclusive) available in the UI.

    Please update the Application API (https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/apps/) to:

    1. Expose the "Pre-stage Priority" value on all List/Retrieve responses for /api/v1/apps/
    2. Allow for setting the "Pre-stage Priority" during App Creation and App Update

    Background:

    My organization is installing multiple Installer Packages during initial DEP enrollment, where some packages must be installed before others. We're currently managing this via manual uploads in the web console after our CI/CD process.…

  12. Add "1 day" to the dropdown for "When a device hasn't been seen" notification

    In your notifications section of the portal, I can select a minimum of 3
    days for the event lag:

    When a device hasn't been seen for
    3 days

    Please add an option for 1 day. Some of us need this for compliance with our security certs and auditors. Note that if someone sets this to 1 day and it's too "noisy" because people turn off their laptops on weekends or their device runs out of power during a
    holiday, then they could always switch it back to 3 days.

  15. Remote Desktop Enable API - Return HTTP 20x instead of HTTP 400 if already enabled on client

    The Remote Desktop Enable API - https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#enable-remote-desktop - currently returns an HTTP 400 response if the device the API is called against already has this enabled. The Disable API returns an HTTP 202 error regardless of whether the feature has not been disabled or has been disabled.

    I'm not entirely sure I see the value in the Enable API returning an HTTP 400 response when a device already has it enabled. A response that returns a relevant HTTP 20x value makes more sense in this instance because the setting has already been enabled. An HTTP 400 response only makes sense…

  16. Devices API and Webhook should include Managed Apple ID

    When using User Enrollment, the managed apple id is shown in the dashboard ui. However, this info is not included in device api or webhook request data.

    Please add this information into both device api and webhook, it will be super helpful to identify device to user.

    Thank you.
