winget install --id Fleet.fleetctlAbout fleetctl
fleetctl (pronounced "Fleet control") is a command line interface (CLI) tool for managing Fleet from the command line. fleetctl enables a GitOps workflow with Fleet. fleetctl also provides a quick way to work with all the data exposed by Fleet without having to use the Fleet UI or work directly with the Fleet API.
What's new in 4.85.0
IT Admins - Added a dark theme to the Fleet UI, selectable in account settings with light, dark, and system options. - Implemented Clear Passcode feature for iOS and iPadOS. - Added support for Fleet variables in Apple's declaration profiles (DDM). - Added support for passing end-user authentication context to the Fleet MSI installer during Windows MDM enrollment, so end users are not prompted to authenticate twice when EUA is enabled. - Switched to Docker as the default WiX runtime on macOS (including Apple Silicon) when generating .msi packages via fleetctl package. Wine is no longer required on macOS for the default path. - Updated macOS 15 CIS benchmark to include v2.0.0 changes. - Updated the macOS 14 (Sonoma) CIS policy set to benchmark v3.0.0. - Switched Fleet-maintained apps serving location from GitHub to https://maintained-apps.fleetdm.com/manifests. If this site is inaccessible, Fleet will fall back to the previous GitHub-hosted copies of manifest files. - Added conditional HTTP downloads using ETag headers for software in GitOps, skipping re-download when content hasn't changed. - Added always_download option for software in GitOps to bypass the new conditional download feature. - Added automatic escaping of JSON special characters in GitOps variables used in .json configuration profiles (Apple DDM declarations and Android profiles). - Updated fleetctl gitops to process Android certificates before Android profiles. - Made fleet name uniqueness rules consistent across the UI, API, and GitOps paths. Fleet names must now differ by more than letter case, and conflic...
