  1. Add Webhook trigger based off device change

    When new devices are enrolled, they have a random name set. We currently populate a drop down list of device names in our ticketing system but we cannot effectively add net new entries to this list because the device name at enrollment is not the name we want. It would be great if we could trigger a webhook to fire whenever a device's name is changed so we can update our list.

  2. Collect RAM inventory data

    Hello,

    We would like to see the amount of RAM a computer has from within SMDM, within each device inventory and on the Device tab as an extra column.

    Our team is looking to refresh hardware, and RAM is the main criteria, but we are unable to gather this data, and everymac.com information is not accurate.

    Note that this feature request is separate from the "report on mac model, installed ram and cpu type," because we are not looking to access the data via API.

  3. Dynamic Attribute Groups

    Create dynamic group (Application and/or Device groups) scheme based on device attribute (model, apps installed, OS version, Public IP, last reboot or custom script result) See screenshot for attributes examples.

  4. Add file server to Mac Finder

    The option to add a file server in the "Add Provider" menu. The setting should appear in the Finder "Connect to Server..." menu/option.

    Examples:
    smb://10.2.3.4
    afp://10.9.8.7
    ftps://server.example.com

    (But I'm not sure if this can be managed by MDM)

  5. Add Request Management to the App Installs Page under Actions button

    If you need to request management for an app that has been user installed on devices you currently have to manually go to every single device individually and request management for the app in order to delete/update etc.

    I am requesting to add a request management button under the "Actions" button on the App Installs page for the specific app you select. This way you can "Select All" on that page for all devices that have the app installed and directly request management of that app all at once. This would save a HUGE amount of time for large deployments…

  6. Store more information for deleted devices

    Deleted devices have very little paper trail to them shown in the web console. If we have the ability to store the custom attributes, notes and who deleted the device with the deleted devices, that would be a huge help in understanding why a specific machine was deleted without searching through other sources.

  8. Report on systems using munki that are having problems connecting with MSC.

    Recently had an issue were my Managed Software Center was giving me a communication error. I was able to resolve this with support (tkt 373463). Now I'm wondering if any other systems in my fleet are having the same problem.

    It would be helpful if the SimpleMDM agent could report these issues back to the web console so the issue can be resolved.

  9. I'd love to see tags implemented as a device organizational tool.

    Right now we have groups. But device groups is only one way to view your fleet. I'd love if I could also assign tags to devices. Ideally multiple tags. This way I could have tags for things like "remote" or "customer service" or "need2retire". Then I could use a tag or combination of tags to isolate a special group of devices.

    Thanks

  10. Display/Add "Script description" while selecting a script to execute "New Job"

    Here are my feature request as detailed in my screenshot below

    When you have many scripts the name of the script is not enough to describe the script. The best would be to add a description in addition to the script name

  11. Enforce matching name and device_name fields

    Note: Due to formatting, not including the _ underscore in device name. Everything was italics.

    SimpleMDM has two name values for each device - "name" and "device name". "name" is the value used in the device list (https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/devices) and the header of a device record. "device name" is the actual hostname set locally. If the hostname changes on device, it will change in SimpleMDM on next inventory refresh. Similarly, "device name" can be edited manually in SimpleMDM and a MDM command will be issued to update it on device.

    What if "device name" changes at any point…

  12. Custom Attribute value override listing

    Custom attributes can be set at the default, group, or device level.
    It would be really handy to have a way to see which group/device has a value that overrides the default value.

    I'd like to see a link style like Profiles to identify groups and devices that have custom value set for a specific attribute. The subsequent linked view would have each device and its value for that attribute.

  13. Communicate New Shared App Versions to Administrators

    I would like to be able to have one or more SimpleMDM administrators in a SimpleMDM tenant be notified via email, Slack integration, or other methodologies when SimpleMDM's team adds a new version of a Shared Munki application to the Catalog.

    This would facilitate clearer communication of the existence of new app versions in a scenario where we are not simply choosing to install the latest version of everything from the Shared app catalog.

  14. allow download of native SimpleMDM Profiles

    Custom Configuration profiles are able to be downloaded from the portal but not profiles that were created in the SimpleMDM portal UI.

    As an admin it would be great to be able to download the raw profile from the server for a number of reasons:
    1) Documentation
    2) Version control
    3) Sanity of knowing what is being delivered to systems
    4) Save time to not have to find a machine with the profile scoped and parse the output of profiles, which isn't the raw profile in it's full either.

    Thanks,
    Eric

  15. Add Enrollment Date to Devices list page

  16. Display the Raw Payload Key when hovering over Human Readable descriptions

    Apple's documentation for payload keys (e.g. Restrictions - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/restrictions) and the translated human readable description in the SimpleMDM Profile creation UI can cause confusion because what is described may not be obvious what key is actually being set.

    I suggest when hovering over the Simple UI description in the SimpleMDM portal the actual, raw payload Key be displayed so there is no confusion as to what preference that is setting.

    For instance, if I hover over "Allow restricting USB connections if locked" in the Restrictions Profile, it should show "allowUSBRestrictedMode".

  17. Mapping Scripts to Group(s)

    What we are concretely looking for is the possibility of mapping one or more individual Scripts to a Group, so when the enrollment process is running, it also executes the script(s) at the end. For example, a custom script that enables SSH on the Mac device.

  18. allow user roles who (only) see their own device

    The idea here is to make our employees trust in the MDM solution. I'd like to give them read-only-access to SimpleMDM to see
    1) what is configured
    2) what I can see about their device
    3) what is NOT possible (I frequently get the question "can you read my e-mail now?")

    Currently, the lowest level of access still allows to see ALL settings, accounts and apps installed on ANY device.

    Being able to restrict the app-listing (similar to the settings in "Allow secret information visibility") would be a helpful feature.

    Even better would be linking the SAML-identity from the Enrollment…

  19. Show all apps on all devices, enriched with metadata & approval-management

    Currently I can see a list of all installed apps for one device at a time. I would love to have an overview of ALL the apps across ALL managed devices.
    My use case: We allow users to install apps themselves, but they need to be approved. I would like to see all apps, filter out the system apps (like "AirDrop"), and then see which apps are only on a single/a few devices.

    Additionally:
    * I want to see if an app is notarized/from the App Store, since any malware app can just call itself "Calendar.app".
    * I want…
