MDM 3.2 (August 2025)

New device side-panel

The devices side-panel was getting cluttered, and it was complicated to get all the information needed. That's why we made it even bigger!

Now you still have the primary information about your device when clicking on its row, but if you click on "View All Device Details" you will find everything you need to know about your device!

New application management tool

Application management was considered a bit too tricky. We've redesigned it entirely to be more user-friendly. Please check our brand new Guide in order to understand how it works.

Major upgrade on permission handling

We have entirely reworked all the management of permissions inside our different services and features. You can now create custom roles and API access tokens with many specific permissions.

Each MDM page listed on this Help Website (see the quick start page for the full list) now has one or more "Permissions" call-outs (see example below), which when clicked on allow you to understand the impact of each permission found in the Custom Roles or API tokens.

Example:

Permissions (CLICK ME)

Some text explaining the permissions for the section you are reading.

User Experience improvements

  • Table column re-ordering: You may now re-order columns by highlighting the desired column, finding the icon, and using a drag-and-drop mechanic to set the column at the desired position.
  • Easy access to actions in the side-panels (on all menus)

Other

  • Device Labels are now exportable fields
  • You may now pick whether you want OTA upgrades to function when using roaming mobile data
  • Apps now display a default image instead of a broken one if app does not include an logo
  • ICCID and IMSI data are now displayed on the device side-panel if it has a SIM card inside it
  • Many bugfixes!

New Dashboards
