  1. Admin Console Banner

    Allow customization of the banner at the top of the admin pane after login. Currently you have a banner that states:

    "You are currently viewing the new Ul for the Devices page. If you would like to temporarily switch back to the old view, click here."

    We have a specific requirement to add a banner to any system with user-added content about what type of data is allowed to be uploaded. It would be awesome to be able to customize the banner to add a message to users of the system.

  2. Notifications: When a device *has been* seen... in addition to device has not been seen for X days / months

    Notifications: When a device has been seen... in addition to device has not been seen for X days / months

    I only can find:

    When a VPP token is set to expire
    When a DEP token is set to expire
    When a push certificate is set to expire
    When a device enrolls
    When a device hasn't been seen for
    When the SimpleMDM iOS app stops reporting location for

    But there is no option for Notification "Last seen Devices", not meant
    "When a device .."

  3. Device Groups API - add methods

    The Device Groups API does not have the following methods:
    create, update, remove/delete, it would be very helpful if this endpoint could have those methods added, along with various options such as:

    create: parameters "name" (required), "lock_screen_message" (optional), and "track_device_location" (optional, default False)

    update: parameters "name" (optional), "lock_screen_message" (optional), and "track_device_location" (optional)

    delete: parameters: "device_group_id"

    Also, the clone method does not currently take any parameters that would allow device group settings to be configured, it would be helpful if the clone method was updated to allow the use of these parameters:

    "name" (required), "lock_screen_message" (optional), and "track_device_location" (optional, default False)

  5. Allow setting scope values when uploading a new Custom Configuration Profile via API

    When using the SimpleMDM portal to upload a new custom configuration profile, you are able to define a scope for the profile - targeted OS, min/max OS version, and Mac architecture.

    It would be useful to be able to define these values via the Create (POST) custom_configuration_profiles API [https://api.simplemdm.com/#create-4].

  6. Record administrator logins in Logs

    Currently, there is no visibility in the logs when an admin session is started from a login. We'd like to see log in and log out for at least "local" SimpleMDM accounts if not IdP initiated sessions as well, populated into the admin namespace. It would be helpful if the logs contained the account email, IP address they are logging in from, and the usual timestamp / "At" value. A user agent value would be a bonus but it's understandable if that's not available.

  7. Extend the devices - list profiles API method to return ALL profiles that a device is assigned

    The list profiles method in the devices API endpoint only returns profiles that are directly assigned to the device; it would be very helpful to the data returned included all profiles assigned to that device, including profiles assigned through groups, etc, along with an attribute that identifies how the profile is assigned.

  8. Option to auto renew ACME Certificates - DDM and Profiles - Managed Device Attestation

    We would like an option to have ACME certificates auto renew. This is a feature currently available for SCEP issued certificates.

    Our use case is using managed device attestation and the new ACME payloads to create certificates that can be used for 802.1x, but we need them to auto renew before they expire (for internal reasons the validity period is 91 days).

    It would also be helpful to provide tokenised values for the CN.

  9. Add the ability for scripts/jobs to execute on boot / login.

    It would be good if scripts/jobs could be configured to run each time the device boots or the user logs in.

    This is handy to enforce script logic on the device without having to add a recurring script that executes every day.

  10. Saving column sorting / pin column

    If device columns can't be custom sorted and saved at this time, it would be nice if the "pin to the left" feature remained pinned - not sure if it times out or reverts after X amount of navigating to different groups, but it doesn't stay pinned too long.

Please add the standalone installer to the shared catalog alongside the existing Teams (and possibly rename teams to Classic, like MS does?) https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2249065

  12. Sort the Scripts -> Jobs -> History tab by newest to oldest by default

    Right now, the sorting is by name (I think?) which is not useful. It would be great to show the most recently queued jobs in the history first by default.

  13. API - Provide clear documentation about API timeout response object and headers

    In the Sync Profiles API documentation here - https://api.simplemdm.com/#sync-profiles - there is a note indicating this specific endpoint is rate limited to 1 request per 30 seconds, and the header 'X-RateLimit-Reset' can be checked to see when the limit will be reset.

    Can you please include specific examples in the documentation for this particular endpoint that demonstrate what the response headers will look like.

    Additionally, for all API endpoints that have a rate limit, please indicate how the API will respond if the rate limit is hit and whether there will be a header 'X-RateLimit-Reset' value that indicates when that…

  14. Add Reporting Tool

    It'd be great to have a reporting tool in the GUI. This way I can easily look up a specific app and see what version is installed on multiple/all devices. I know there is an API tool but having something in the GUI would be great.

  15. Integrate Google’s Santa project into SimpleMDM?

    The clue is in the name SimpleMDM - your product makes the difficult parts of managing your Mac devices simple - setting up and managing Munki could be challenging, and now the easy to use implementation you’ve provided is a great fit for lots of organisations.

    Can you apply the same magic to Google Santa please?

    https://github.com/google/santa

    Here’s the use case. In our organisation, end users run with administrator access. This empowers them to do all the things they need to do to be productive, and ensures IT isn't a bottleneck…

    …but - with great power comes great responsibility. There’s…

  16. Support custom MDM commands

    I'd like to see SimpleMDM support sending custom MDM commands with arbitrary payloads. Advantages being...

    1. Customers don't have to wait for SimpleMDM to implement new commands to start testing. With WWDC coming up this is especially pressing because new commands and/or keys need to be tested quickly during the summer beta cycle for any chance at improvement.
    2. Possible to test beta/RSR updates by passing in the product key to a software update command.
    3. WS1 has this feature and please don't make me say anything nice about WS1.

    As an example, here's how WS1 implements it with the author using EnableRemoteDesktop. …

  17. Custom Configuration Profiles API - Download the profile as a JSON object, not a text object

    Currently it looks like the download method for the custom configuration profiles API returns the profile being downloaded as a text object not a JSON object.

    The preferred (at least for me) response object that should be returned is a JSON object in keeping with all other responses.

  18. Apps & Media > Assignment UI redesign

    The user interface for the Apps & Media > Assignment area of SimpleMDM is rather clunky for viewing and adding assignment groups, etc.

    For example, after creating an assignment group to allocate profiles to, picking/selecting a profile is a pain as you have to know the name of a profile in order for it to appear in the list of app/media/profiles that can be added to the group. This is most painful when there are more than three profiles that can be selected (in my particular case there are over twenty profiles that can possibly be selected).

    This part of…

  19. Report on profile status - pending, installed, failed

    SimpleMDM currently only surfaces profile assignment in the main profiles UI. To see the status of a specific profile on a device an admin must navigate to a device record. What information isn't readily available is the status of a profile. Even if it's assigned to 100 devices, there's no way to tell how many of those devices the profile successfully installed.

    Specifically asking...
    - Add three columns to the view at /profiles in the UI - installed, pending, failed.
    - In the profiles and custom profiles API endpoints include data about these status as well.

    The major driver behind…
