Access user email for script environment variables (Vanta integration)
Hi team, First off, congrats on the recent progress, Swif has become much more stable and feature-rich over the past few months. I'm currently trying to install the Vanta agent through Swif and enable automatic registration with their device monitor. I'm using this script: https://github.com/VantaInc/vanta-agent-scripts/blob/main/install-macos.sh The issue is that the script requires the VANTA_OWNER_EMAIL environment variable in order to register the device/user correctly. Question: Is there a way within Swif to access the email of the user associated with the host executing the command and pass it as an environment variable? Alternatives: If that’s not possible, are there recommended patterns or workarounds to achieve automatic user registration (for example via Swif agent APIs, metadata, or post-install hooks)? Any guidance would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Implement login screen banner on Linux devices
Develop a method to roll out a login screen banner with specific wording as per policy across different operating systems. Explore equivalent solutions for Linux, potentially using Swif for deployment.

Install app from mac app store in free version
Hey, how do I install an app like “Horo” from the mac app store when I’m on the free plan? can only see the “Device Management → Applications” tab, which is under the paid version. In the MDM the app store doesn’t allow for downloads. What’s the best way to go about this? Cheers

Apple vision pro support?
Is there current support for apple vision pro? Dealbreaker for us to onboard, so keen to hear if it’s doable right now, or what timelines on the roadmap it would have

View tags in device management list & export
We use tags to mark a device as being rented. While this works, I don’t see this info except on the device details page which is hard to manage if the list of devices is growing. View tags in device management list View tags in CSV export

Creating MSI file for app installation that requires multiple files
When creating an App, is there a way to upload more than 1 file to deploy? It could be very useful to deploy a batch script that calls other scripts or installs software that requires multiple files to be installed.

Google Identity login to Mac
Since a few macOS versions ago, Apple has allowed third-party solutions to replace the default login window. This feature requires an MDM to deploy the necessary configuration. Using a configuration profile, you can instruct macOS to no longer use the native login window but instead redirect authentication to a third-party solution, such as Microsoft Company Portal. During the first login, a local user account is automatically created based on the information retrieved from Microsoft 365. This includes details like whether the user should be a standard user or an administrator, depending on group membership in Azure AD. The cloud password is also synced as the local macOS password. This setup ensures that if the user changes their Microsoft 365 password, their local macOS password is also updated at the next login. If you’d like, I can share an example configuration profile for this setup.

Shadow IT - Enable PII check
Consider the data when uploading a PDF to ChatGPT for example. The PDF can contain important PII data as well. Some companies might want to prevent PDF uploads on ChatGPT for example.
