Changelog: New Linux Enrollment Method for Universal Blue (Bluefin) Devices

Release Date: 2025-12-16

Key Features

1. New Enrollment Flow for Universal Blue (Bluefin)

  • Introduced a dedicated frontend flow for enrolling Universal Blue (Bluefin) Linux devices.

  • The enrollment UI now auto-fills both teamId and groupId fields.

  • Admins can select which groupId to use during enrollment.

  • The flow does not support BYOD or additional configurations.

2. Streamlined Build & Enrollment Phases

  • Build Phase (for administrators):

    • Organizations can integrate the install_swifteam.sh script into their Universal Blue image’s CI/CD pipeline.

    • Supports passing $TEAM_ID and $GROUP_IDS (multiple group IDs can be comma-separated).

  • Enrollment Phase (for users):

    • A simple, copyable script is provided for device enrollment:

      /usr/bin/swifteam -doEnroll -teamId="" -name="" -surname="" -email=""

    • All parameters (teamId, name, surname, email) are optional, as values are typically injected via the image build process.

3. Improved User Experience

  • The installer script in the UI is copyable as a single command (comments are excluded from the copy action).

  • Help Center link is now present in both the Add Device page and the Installer popup, directing users to the official enrollment guide.

  • UI improvements based on feedback, including spacing adjustments and clearer instructions.
