Location Address or Coordinates on Device Details Page
It would be great to have the location address or coordinates available to see on the device details page for easy access. As of now, it's only available via API.
6 votesLocation coordinates are available by hovering over the markers in the Location section on the Device Details page. I will close this request for now, but if there additions that you would like to see, please do not hesitate to reach out to us or submit a new suggestion.

Possibility to lock account name during enrollment
LockPrimaryAccountInfo and put use of the saml login name
from:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/accountconfigurationcommand/commandand if possible collect the users full name from the saml login.
15 votesLockPrimaryAccountInfo is now available as of macOS 10.15.4. Earlier versions of macOS have a bug that prevents this feature from functioning reliably.
SAML attributes can be saved to a device’s custom attributes. Under the “Authentication” tab in Enrollment details, SAML authentication types include an option to “Allow provider to set custom attributes”.

API: Retrieve one Custom Attribute
Can we get API to retrieve one Custom Attribute?
Call can be like "set value" just with get:
HTTP Request
GET https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/devices/{DEVICE_ID}/custom_attribute_values/{CUSTOM_ATTRIBUTE_ID}
Response: as it is when retrieving all:
{
data: [
{
type: customattributevalue,
id: nameofattribute,
attributes: {
value: valueofattribute
}
]
}1 voteSince this request was submitted, we did add this API: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#get-values-for-device
This will return all custom attributes for a device (so you would just need to parse the response to get the specific attribute you are looking for).
I believe this should allow you to accomplish your goals so I will close this request, but if it does not, please do not hesitate to reach out to us and/or submit another suggestion.

Pull (available) MAC Addresses from supervised devices to improve device onboarding
Currently, SimpleMDM by default pulls the WiFi MAC address for all supervised devices, but does not pull ethernet MAC address.
During our device onboarding process, some of our Apple devices do not configure themselves over Wifi, and hence it is more valuable for us to pull the eth card MAC address instead (which now has to be manually copied by hand/scanned from device packaging/pulled from Network settings in MacOS).
We would like the option for SimpleMDM to retrieve both the WiFi and ethernet MAC Address (if available) for all supervised devices.
21 votesiOS 13+ and macOS 10.15+ will provide MAC addresses for additional devices beyond just the wireless network interface.

Make "Consumed Licenses" available via API
Make the consumed device licenses in SimpleMDM available via the API, in a new call or perhaps available via the account payload.
This could be extended to plan details. The argument could be made that this count could be inferred from number of active devices... I don't see why this couldn't be its own API endpoint, returning an example such as:

Change the way to edit table contents
Change all tables to the type of device table. This would be nice if you want to change or delete content. Example: In the profile table I am always afraid to delete a wrong line.

IKEv2 VPN support
It doesn't look like IKEv2 connection type is supported in the UI. This would be useful with attribute support so that we can add accounts per device and have the username and password assigned in the profile.

Store the remote lock/wipe PIN in the SimpleMDM webUI somewhere
At the moment, when you send a remote lock/wipe command - you're required to set a PIN. But that PIN isn't retained by SimpleMDM... which means you're trusting ME to do it... ;)
But more seriously - it would great for that PIN to be viewable in SimpleMDM. My use case? Service desk admin sends a remote lock for a stolen device, finishes their shift, goes home.
Laptop is found, someone else on helpdesk can pick up the ticket, retrieve the PIN, and send it on to the end user.
20 votesLock/Wipe PINs are now saved by SimpleMDM. They can be retrieved from the device details screen and the deleted device details screen.

Clarify interactions between "Delay OS update availability" and "OS Auto Update Policy"
We had iOS devices updated unexpectedly to iOS 13, even though we had "Delay OS update availability" to 90 days.
Thanks to a deep investigation by Eric, we realized that the "Delay OS update availability" option applies only to the user updates. And that setting gets ignored when an "OS Auto Update Policy" is set.
To prevent others from making the same mistake we made, I suggest you change the label description of "Delay OS update availability" on the device restriction profile, to make it explicit that this will only apply to user updates. How about something like "Delay OS…
1 voteThanks for your feedback. A note has been added in the Restrictions profile that will appear shortly.

Prestage Enrollment with DEP
Please add the ability to set custom attributes for DEP Devices which have not yet enrolled with SimpleMDM.
This would enable us to set some user attributes (email addresses, user names etc.) before handing the device to the user. Right now we are not able to preset a Google account profile for a user for a full zero touch deployment.
