Log entries for when the Bootstrap Token is escrowed or rotated would be helpful for debugging, compliance, and device health.

Specify package install order during prestage
The prestage_installer pkg that gets used when more than one pkg is assigned to a device group doesn't currently have a method to specify installation.
Some vendors supply their products as multiple packages and some have dependencies of one being installed before another (see: jamf Connect trying to run the installed app if it doesn't detect a LaunchAgent on disk that is installed by another .pkg). For reasons like this, being able to guarantee the order of pkg installation is key.
This request is to implement a way to specify the order of installation from the portal that is used…

Add extra fields to the device list
The device list currently displays:
Device Name Initial Group Model Status Serial Number EnrollmentIt would be useful to be able to customize the fields being shown to include or exclude any of the fields available, including custom attribute fields.
15 votesCustom attributes and additional fields can now be displayed on the devices index page. Click the gear in the table to select more columns.
If there are additional specific attributes you would like, please create a new request.

Implement FileVault recovery key rotation in UI
It would be convenient to be able to rotate FileVault recovery keys from within the SimpleMDM UI as documented here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/rotate_the_filevault_key rather than running the
fdesetupTerminal command via script or using the API to accomplish this.1 voteHi Eddie,
Thanks for the post. This option is already supported in SimpleMDM. It is available when the existing recovery key is stored in MDM.

Add Device Group Custom Attributes to API
There is currently not a way to read or set the custom attributes of a device group from the API. In order to pull this information into external systems, the API is needed.
1 voteIt is now possible to both Get and Set group-level custom attributes via API. Documentation: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#get-values-for-group

Add FileMaker to macOS shared apps.
I'd like to see FileMaker added as a shared app. Not sure if there's a way to pass licensing info via MDM, but this could be helpful. Tahnks

FDE recovery key escrow status as a filter
it would be helpful to include the FDE recovery key escrow status (rather than the key itself) as well as the firmware password status.
As a company policy, we'd like to enforce these and check who forgot to turn it on or off. Going through devices one by one is quite hard.2 votesThis is now available with Dynamic Groups (currently in Preview). Sign up here to have the preview enabled on your account.

list which groups are assigned a profile in the Profiles UI
In the Profile UI I can see how many groups are assigned the profile, but I can't see which groups those are.
This request is to add some sort of UI to display which group names (and maybe a direct link to said group) are assigned the profile. It would make troubleshooting the discovery of which group is missing the profile easier, etc.
20 votesA list of groups with a specific profile assigned can now be viewed in the admin interface. To view the groups with a profile assigned, go to the Profiles page, look under the "Groups Assigned" column next to the profile name. If the profile is assigned to any groups, you can click the number to view those groups.

Allow installing iOS apps (.ipa) on Macs with Apple Silicon
Macs with an Apple Silicon processor support running iPadOS apps. This could be nice to allow installing such apps via SimpleMDM.
7 votesThe "Force macOS compatibility" option has been added under the App Details page for iOS apps.

Enable Remote Management
Apple docs suggest there is an Enable Remote Management MDM command available, I can also see Remote Desktop Enabled as a field in the device Security section- would be useful to have a per device / per group option to enable this for the MDM-generated admin account. Handy for those of us still using ARD, and easier than signing up for a developer account building a signed package just to run a shell script.
5 votesPlease find a new “Enable Remote Desktop” action on the device details screen.
