This week’s Swif updates are all about working smarter, not harder. We’re introducing more powerful ways to group devices dynamically, expanding remote desktop support on macOS, and rolling out SwifIQ, our AI-powered policy assistant that helps you move faster with confidence.
Let’s dive in 👇
Smarter Device Groups with Extension Attributes
Device management just got more flexible.
You can now create Smart Device Groups using:
Device specs (OS version, hardware details, etc.)
Custom Extension Attributes you define
This unlocks highly targeted policies, software deployment, and compliance rules — without manual device assignment.

Programmatic Updates via API
Need to update device attributes automatically from your own systems (HRIS, CMDB, asset tools)?
You can now edit device extension attributes via Webhook / API, making Swif even easier to integrate into your existing workflows.
