  1. Implement some means of keeping device name and SimpleMDM name in sync

    I wouldn't mind if they were always the same, but perhaps separate names is useful to some so maybe just a checkbox in either rename widget that says "also update <the other> name

  2. Remote Desktop Enable API - Return HTTP 20x instead of HTTP 400 if already enabled on client

    The Remote Desktop Enable API - https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#enable-remote-desktop - currently returns an HTTP 400 response if the device the API is called against already has this enabled. The Disable API returns an HTTP 202 error regardless of whether the feature has not been disabled or has been disabled.

    I'm not entirely sure I see the value in the Enable API returning an HTTP 400 response when a device already has it enabled. A response that returns a relevant HTTP 20x value makes more sense in this instance because the setting has already been enabled. An HTTP 400 response only makes sense…

  3. Increase pkg accepted size for custom apps and allow for Adobe pkg upload

    I am trying to load up packages for Adobe Suite on an Feature Restricted License. So no cloud access. The total Suite size is around 28.5 GB. I am not necessarily suggesting allowing for the full suite to be uploaded in one go. I have divided out the installs and the largest install is After Effects at 5.9GB. So if the file size could be adjusted to 6000MB that would be sufficient. Photoshop is 5.5 GB, Premiere is 4.15 GB, Character is 4.08 GB. With the removal of MAC OS server support I am hopeful to transition this to be…

  5. Add "1 day" to the dropdown for "When a device hasn't been seen" notification

    In your notifications section of the portal, I can select a minimum of 3
    days for the event lag:

    When a device hasn't been seen for
    3 days

    Please add an option for 1 day. Some of us need this for compliance with our security certs and auditors. Note that if someone sets this to 1 day and it's too "noisy" because people turn off their laptops on weekends or their device runs out of power during a
    holiday, then they could always switch it back to 3 days.

  7. Expose Custom App "Pre-stage priority" in API

    The Custom App Screen (https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/apps/{APP_ID}) allows for a configurable "Pre-stage priority" for Device-level App Installation during DEP enrollment. This value has a pre-set range of 0-10 (inclusive) available in the UI.

    Please update the Application API (https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/apps/) to:

    1. Expose the "Pre-stage Priority" value on all List/Retrieve responses for /api/v1/apps/
    2. Allow for setting the "Pre-stage Priority" during App Creation and App Update

    Background:

    My organization is installing multiple Installer Packages during initial DEP enrollment, where some packages must be installed before others. We're currently managing this via manual uploads in the web console after our CI/CD process.…

  8. Allow Log Filter to Include API

    Currently when filtering the Logs, you can filter by the user making the change, but you cannot filter by API key. I would like the ability to quickly see the recent logs that the API has made.
    This may be classified as a bug, but was asked to submit here anyway.

  9. 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.

  10. 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)

  12. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. Ability to sort Apple VPP app by the version installed on device

    So I'm not clicking the Select All checkbox --> clicking Actions - Install Update for users who are already on the latest version (example in screenshot being v2.0.25 as the latest for that app)

  18. Checking the "Select All" checkbox should apply to ALL enrolled devices (not just the first 100)

    Meaning if I want to push an Apple VPP update to all enrolled devices, clicking the "Select All" checkbox only applies to the first 100 (as the ceiling).

    We currently only have 105x macOS devices enrolled, but are in the process of bringing over 850x others from VMWare Workspace ONE in a way that's "zero touch" for the user.
    You can imagine us having to click the "Select All" checkbox on each 9x pages containing 100x devices/each would be inefficient.

    Screenshot is from my work Gmail and is just an example of what I would see implemented.

  19. ability to allow admin to decide if end user can or cannot control their date and time zone settings

    For some users, we want to allow them to control time zone while for others we want to lock it down. It'd be nice to have the option.
