  1. More granularity on the SimpleMDM menu bar icon...

    So, we've just rolled out Nudge and have used the SimpleMDM agent to do so. And now I'm being grumbled at about the Managed Software Centre Icon taking up valuable menu bar space...

    I appreciate I can kill it via the UI - but it's a bit all or nothing, and when we start adding apps to self-service, the menu bar app seems as good a place as any to direct our end users.

    So - can we set icon visibility per assignment group?

    I think what I'm basically saying is if all apps are managed, and there's no self-service…

  2. 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.

  3. Implement Munki managed uninstalls

    The SimpleMDM Munki implementation does not currently support managing uninstalls of software as a "pure" deployment of Munki might. Please implement uninstall management.

  5. Add notification option for when enterprise certificate is expiring

    Currently when an enterprise certificate is expiring, the only place to see that is on the SimpleMDM site at the top of the Devices page.

    We develop custom apps and push them to SimpleMDM with the API, so we don't log in that often which means we could easily miss these alerts. This could lead to lost productivity for our internal users.

    Please allow us to send notifications to specified user(s) when an enterprise certificate is about to expire.

    It would be nice if one or more time intervals could be selected as well, like you can for VPN and…

  7. Add Support for Munki Conditionals to SimpleMDM's Munki Implementation

    Munki includes the ability to set "conditionals" for items in specific manifests to provide granular controls over the installation or appearance of items.

    For example, if I have a multi-site organization, I can set a conditional on a NOPKG item that installs a printer so that the printer install NOPKG only shows up if the device user is connecting to Munki from a specific subnet. This allows me to refine the view of available self-service printers so that, for example, the printers available at Site A only show up if the user's local IP address matches the subnet at Site…

  9. Make logging more detailed for MDM commands

    While I appreciate how detailed SimpleMDM logs can be, especially with raw responses from MDM, sometimes they need to provide more detail. For example, when sending an OS update command the log only contains...

    "Log Details
    Full ID E7B0DBE9-A7C1-4EC8-8CB8-BFA4AB990C59
    Created At 2023-08-17 3:34 PM
    Namespace device
    Type os.update.idle
    Level info
    Device redacted
    UDID F405AA51-FF04-4B71-900F-9C09F0515398
    Serial Number redacted

    Metadata
    {
    "update_version": "13.5.1"
    }
    "

    With OS updates in particular, it's useful to know what mode was used as well. 'downloadonly', 'notifyonly', 'installasap', or 'forceupdate' are all options, but there's no associated data. For some basic commands like…

  10. Improve API docs with examples for each endpoint

    SimpleMDM's API documentation (https://api.simplemdm.com/) is inconsistent in what information is included per endpoint. For example, https://api.simplemdm.com/#custom-configuration-profiles shows the response body for a GET call, but the POST (create) section has no usage information. It's up to the user to intuit from other endpoints the format in which those arguments should be.

    https://api.simplemdm.com/#custom-attributes shows how to set a value for a device, but not create a new custom attribute globally.

    We (the customer) end up making assumptions about API formats which are usually true, but only able to confirm through guessing. It would help to ensure the official docs…

  11. Make the `app_usage_data` portion of Munki optional

    Having just confirmed with Eric and others in the Slack channel that SimpleMDM's Munki instance doesn't make use of the app_usage_data feature in Munki - would it be possible to create a toggle to turn it off?

    Additionally there are some global regions where tracking this kind of stuff falls foul of local privacy laws...

    ...and it's upset my privacy focused end users.

    Thanks in advance

  17. Support SCIM provisioning and de-provisioning for admin accounts

    SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management) is a REST/JSON protocol defined in RFC 7644 that allows identity providers to direct service providers to make account create, update, and delete actions. It is generally used to pre-provision access for new accounts and de-provision access for accounts that no longer require it.

    Please add support for SimpleMDM to work with the SCIM protocol for administrator accounts. A minimum implementation for our purposes would be to create administrator accounts using SCIM at the default permission level, and have the delete function revoke access on the given account. In a perfect world, the SCIM…

  19. Allow setting device naming schemes per enrollment

    We use the device naming template under Settings -> General. This works great for our macOS and iOS devices that come in through manual enrollment and ADE as our template contains the serial number attribute, but fails when User Enrolled devices are named because that attribute isn't available. It would be useful to allow us to set a different device naming scheme per enrollment, or at least to set a backup or some sort of logic should one of the attributes be null.
