Fleet adds support for ChromeOS

Fleet has leveled up! We're excited to announce expanded support for Google's ChromeOS and the new ChromeOS Flex via our innovative Fleetd Chrome extension. Discover more about the Fleetd Chrome extension for enterprise device management in our full announcement.

Boosted compliance with 'verified' status

Available in Fleet Premium and Fleet Ultimate

Drawing on our values of 🔴 Empathy and 🟢 Results, Fleet's latest update introduces a new "Verified" status to the macOS settings pages. This status, achieved through osquery, verifies the presence of all profiles and the enablement of disk encryption, embodying our commitment to results-driven processes and effective security measures.

In keeping with our value of 🟠 Ownership, if disk encryption is enforced, Fleet takes responsibility for securely storing the disk encryption key. This addition exemplifies our dedication to providing comprehensive, reliable solutions for our users.

The Hosts page has been enhanced in line with our value of 🟣 Openness. Users can now filter hosts based on the "Verified" status, promoting transparency and aiding in easy management and oversight of compliant devices. This reflects our commitment to creating user-friendly systems, reflecting the empathy we share for our users' experience and their need for efficient, straightforward tools.

  • If a device's operation_type is modified, but the device doesn't exist in Fleet yet, a DEP profile will be assigned to the device and a new record will be created in Fleet.

• Fixed table formatting for the output of fleetctl get mdm-command-results.
• Fixed the /api/latest/fleet/mdm/apple_bm endpoint so that it returns 400 instead of 500 when it fails to authenticate with Apple's Business Manager API, as this indicates a Fleet configuration issue with the Apple BM certificate or token.

• Fixed an issue preventing a user with the gitops role from applying some MDM settings via fleetctl apply (the macos_setup_assistant and bootstrap_package settings).
