Combine assignments into groups for easy viewing
Allow the ability to create a group/folder in the App Assignments menu to allow the grouping of assignments. We will have a lot of iPads that require individual apps. This will make it quite cumbersome to parse through.
If we could group the assignments into a folder and title it based on department, viewing the assignments would be a lot easier.

Support API key expiration
API keys currently never expire. A key can be regenerated to effectively expire it, but there's no way to do so by time. I'm specifically asking...
- Add support for API keys to expire after 30, 60, 90 days, by timestamp, or never.
- Optional. Let the API regenerate or expire keys. Ends up being a one key rules them all situation. Up to debate whether this is a secure approach.

Implement more granular API permissions
In https://suggestions.simplemdm.com/forums/204404-suggestions/suggestions/32990482-scope-api-key API permissions were split up to correspond with API endpoints. While a welcome change, it doesn't go far enough in providing granular access to sensitive MDM actions. Since the the /devices endpoint contains so much (device update, info, restart, shut down, lock, erase, etc.) it is a prime target were an API key to be compromised.
I am asking for API permissions to be split up to be even more granular by MDM command. An API key which only needs to enable/disable remote desktop should not also be able to lock or wipe the device. While I don't…

Allow Configurable Log Retention
I would like to be able to customize the log retention filter and length. Not all device logs are needed for longer than 30 days, however important access logs and commands such as locking devices should be able to be kept for much longer.
Alternatively or in addition, having a built in log pipeline to a SIEM would be great. Pulling logs out of the API is a bit of a hassle.1 vote -
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

API: Dont send Filevault keys by default from /devices
Separate the device API so it does not return filevault keys with every device object. Or create a filter to omit the keys.
I keep running into scenarios where using the device API means scrubbing file vault keys every single time I make it get request to https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/devices
It gets pretty messy downstream especially with logs.8 votes -
Offer access to script jobs from MSC
Not sure if this is possible, but I'd like to be able to assign script jobs, so they'd appear in the MSC. I know this is probably somewhat similar to NoPKG, but it would remove the hassle of authoring the PKG.

Allow for a few different local admin password formats
The current format is often very hard to type (and not easily copied), so it would be helpful if you offered some other password types that were more user and script friendly. 1Password's "memorable" word based passwords are a good example of a strong password, that's also easy type. Bonus points if you omit characters that need to be escaped in scripting (like when using the sysadminctl -secureTokenOn function).

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.addedWhenever 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…

Add profile.created and profile.deleted webhook events
https://api.simplemdm.com/#webhooks
I am requesting the profile.created and profile.deleted events be added to webhooks. Considering the sensitive nature of profiles, it follows these are events which would be of interest to security and IT teams. For example, if an attacker were to gain access to a SimpleMDM instance and craft a malicious profile.
In our case, most profiles are created through the API. Knowing when a profile is manually created in the web app is an important signal as it could mean someone has maliciously gained access or an impending profile misconfiguration is on the way. We also keep a cache…

Enable adding multiple devices to app assignment groups Via API
It would be nice to be able to add multiple devices using their device ID's to an app assignment group using the API. There is no easy way to add multiple devices to an assignment group unless they are already in a device group, and you may want to add specific devices in ag group rather than the full group for some apps, IE: installers.

Support per admin user time zone settings
Under Account > Settings > Time zone an admin can set the global time zone for their entire SimpleMDM instance. This is the timestamp used in logs, enrollment date, etc.
I'd like the ability for each admin user to set their own time zone as well. Having a per account setting is a small quality of life change which makes it easier to grok events. I prefer to read timestamps in my local time. Time data itself should not change, only what's presented to the user.

Support "Non-Removable" flag on deployed iOS Store Apps
As noted here on the SimpleMDM blog, an option was added to iOS starting in 14.x where individual apps can be marked as "non-removable" by the administrator when being deployed.
https://simplemdm.com/blog/mdm-ios-14-macos-11-big-sur/
https://it-training.apple.com/tutorials/deployment/dm195"To prevent a user from uninstalling a managed app, mark the app as nonremovable when you assign the managed app to a user or device. Depending on your MDM solution, you might need to deselect a Removable attribute or set a nonremovable attribute. With your MDM solution, you may also be able to set this attribute on apps that are already installed on a device."

Create a Vanta integration
Vanta is an automated compliance tool. If SimpleMDM created an integration, it would be much easier for us to deploy across various products as part of a comprehensive compliance package.

Add Device Group to the standard attributes
Adding the devices group to the standard attributes would make it much easier to customize profiles based on the group of the device. This is somewhat possible to do currently with a default value on a custom attribute, but a standard attribute would be preferred.
