  1. Report on installed certificates

    I'd like to see SimpleMDM report on installed certificates for all device types. A common feature in other MDMs, CertificateListCommand (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/certificatelistcommand) has been around since iOS 4 and macOS 10.7 (!).

    While we have other tools to report on certificates (like osquery), it's useful to have MDM as a data source as well since oftentimes installed certificates originate via profiles. Knowing certificate health within the same product has benefits, and could allow for more advanced certificate management directly in SimpleMDM.

    Important fields...
    - Certificate name
    - CA/issued by
    - Expiration
    - Current validity status
    - If possible, whether…

  4. Add support for ZIP and XIP as well as DMG

    A fair number of apps are distributed as ZIPs (and one prominent app uses XIPs) instead of DMGs. It would be convenient to be able to upload these as is, instead of having to locally convert them to DMGs first $(unzip App.zip && hdiutil create -format ULMO -o App.dmg -srcfolder App.app)

  5. Scope profiles to build version

    With the advent of RSRs, the OS version is no longer a definitive identifier of what OS rev a system is on. The OS build numbers would be a more consistent way to identify target OSes.

    Historically, macOS minor builds have followed an pattern of
    [Major OS number][A...Z minor build][Patch Number] moniker.

    Now with RSRs, the build numbers are a bit more complicated but the values still go up and each build number is larger than the last based on the pattern above.

    13.3.1 22E261
    13.3.1 RSR 22E772610a
    13.4.0 22F66
    13.4.1 22F82
    13.4.1 RSR 22F770820b

    I propose that Build numbers…

  10. Support choosing which webhook events to subscribe to per endpoint

    https://api.simplemdm.com/#webhooks

    The current webhook events are as follows...

    device.changed_group
    device.enrolled
    device.unenrolled
    device.lock.enabled
    abm.device.added

    Whenever any of these events occurs, the webhook endpoint is pinged. However, processing these can get particularly noisy, especially in large environments and (hopefully) as SimpleMDM adds more supported events.

    I am asking to add support for selecting which events are subscribed to per webhook endpoint. This way only events needed for a particular workflow are sent and the webhook receiver requires less work to filter out unneeded data.

    The UI could look like other SimpleMDM settings with checkboxes for each event, where by default all are…

  11. New notification options

    I'd love for a lot more notification options. Given SimpleMDM's position on the device already, it hopefully shouldn't be too heavy of a lift.

    • New User added
    • User priv changes
    • OS update skipped
    • Device visible (after being offline)

    This is off the top of my head, but I'm sure I could come up with quite a few more given some time.

  12. Include "less than macOS version" and "greater than macOS version" for profile scoping

    It would be very helpful to be able to define "less than" and "greater than" macOS version when scoping profiles. For example, I would prefer to specify "less than macOS 12" for a profile to apply to all versions of macOS 11. As it is, I have to update the maximum OS version every time a new dot release comes out.

  14. Improve Device Search with More Attributes

    Currently device search only supports device name, serial number, IMEI, MAC, and phone number.

    Scenarios where search doesn't return the results I need:
    - When I need to search by a custom attribute. For example, say I want to return all devices where the username attribute is "nathaniel.strauss". I am unable to since those attributes are not exposed in search. This is a common ask - "How many devices does x have?" The same holds true for any custom attribute set from SAML assertion - team, department, etc.
    - When the device name (SimpleMDM defined) doesn't match the Device Name…

  15. Control Webhook data

    Webhooks are very limited in what they provide without triggering another API call to pull in more information. The ability to control the payload within the webhook endpoint creation screen would be a huge help in interfacing with other programs. The ability to add static data to the payload (like we can already do to the header) or be able to add dynamic data through attribute support.

  18. Add a Comments Field to Login/Background Item Management Profile

    Some of the Rule Type values (Team IDs, for example) for the Login and Background Item Management are a bit abstract, and it would be useful to have a comment/description field added to allow an administrator to describe in plain language what a the Rule Type value applies to.

  19. Idempotence

    Something akin to "Smart Groups" in JamfPro. AKA a method to scope scripting/app deployments to only nodes that, by definition, need it.

    Puppet calls this Idempotency

    Ideally we'd be able to create a "Smart Group" in SimpleMDM to show us all machines running lower than a currently desired version of application X. We could then target our deployment to said group. As the deployment delivers, nodes drop dynamically out of the "Smart Group", as the deployment has satisfied the requirements we have defined.
