    Turn hours of manual or scripted API calls into seconds — freeing your team to tackle higher-value work.
  • Streamlined Workflows:
    Consolidate dozens of API requests into a single bulk operation, simplifying error handling and ensuring atomic success or rollback.
  • Scaling:
    Effortlessly apply policy changes, tag updates, or SIM releases across thousands of devices — maintaining full control even at peak volumes.
Enjoy the speed on Portal and new BULK API.

Keeping track of SIM cards purchased within the same order can be challenging. To simplify this, we’ve released an improvement that lets you download a CSV file containing all ICCIDs associated with your order.
Key Features:
  • Download ICCID list per order:
    For every order, you can download a CSV file listing all ICCIDs, making it easier to use for provisioning in your application.
  • CSV file as filter input:
    Use the same CSV file to filter all SIMs and devices belonging to that order on the Connected Devices and SIM Inventory pages. This allows you to quickly apply bulk configuration updates.
How to use the feature:
  • select
    Orders
    on your left side menu
  • view
    Details
    for your recent order
  • click on
    Download ICCIDs (CSV)
    to retrieve the file
Note: Only orders done through the Webshop after May 29th 2025 will show the download functionality

Customisable Tables feature designed to help you tailor the Connected Devices table to your specific workflow. This update brings flexibility and control to your data view.
Key Features:
  • Show/Hide Columns
    : Choose which columns to display based on your needs, include additional data, such as ICCID and IMEI, to give you a comprehensive view of your devices.
  • Column Reordering
    : Drag and drop columns to rearrange them, enabling a more intuitive data navigation experience.
  • Resize Columns:
    Adjust the width of columns to fit your preference for better readability and workflow optimization.
  • Persistent Settings
    : Your table customizations are automatically saved and stored per browser and device, so you don’t need to adjust them every time you log in.
  • Responsive Design
    : The customisable tables are optimized for different screen sizes, ensuring a smooth user experience across devices.
Why This Matters:
In the past, the default table view encouraged users to rely on device names, even though fields like ICCID or IMEI might be more useful, especially when managing large fleets or migrating from other platforms. With this update, you can configure the table layout to streamline device management, reduce complexity, and minimize the risk of errors.
Happy customizing!

emnify is rolling out a new feature that will extend the IP address space available to customers to millions of devices, eliminating the current /24 and /28 limitations. This will enable long term growth and at the same time will provide customers significant flexibility in configuring their own IP address spaces.
Highlights:
  • Organizations retain their already allocated IP address spaces.
  • Organizations can allocate new larger IP address spaces from the RFC6598 (shared address space) and the RFC1918 (private address space) - see more details below.
More details are provided in https://docs.emnify.com/how-tos/add-ip-address-spaces in the "Updated" tab.
We're announcing a major performance upgrade to device provisioning on our Portal and in the API.
What’s New
Our newly developed Bulk Device Creation API allows you to register and activate
500 devices in under 20 seconds—a 200x speed improvement!
Whether you're deploying hundreds or thousands of devices, this new capability significantly reduces setup time and simplifies high-volume rollouts.
With this new API, you can:
  • Accelerate deployment
    – Register 3,000 SIMs in under 5 minutes
  • Simplify operations
    – Make just one request instead of hundreds
  • Improve reliability
    – Ensure full success or full rollback for each bulk request
Try It Now
The new Bulk Device Creation API is available for all customers. You can try it on Portal while creating devices for newly registered batches of SIMs.
Managing SIMs across different workspaces just got easier! You can now transfer SIMs between your workspaces in just a few clicks — no support request needed.
Why This Matters
  • Seamless testing
    – Move SIMs between staging and production environments effortlessly. For example: Move SIMs to a test environment before launching their product, then transfers them back once testing is complete.
  • Easy corrections
    – Fix mistakes by transferring SIMs registered in the wrong workspace without need to reach support.
Key Characteristics on SIM transfer between Workspaces:
  • Available for all customers with the Workspaces feature enabled
  • Up to 500 SIMs per transfer
  • Self-service via SIM Inventory – Admins of 2+ workspaces can transfer SIMs directly
  • Automatic device detachment – Transferred SIMs will be detached from any attached devices
  • Controlled status updates – Active SIMs will be moved to a suspended state, while FTM, Issued, and Suspended SIMs retain their status
How to Get Started
  1. 📌 In the emnify Portal: Navigate to SIM Inventory, select the SIMs you want to move, and click Transfer SIMs bulk action
  2. 📌 Confirm Transfer: Choose the target workspace and proceed with the transfer
This feature puts full control over SIM management in your hands, making operations faster, simpler, and more efficient.

We’ve heard your feedback! Managing devices just got easier—you can now use Hardware IMEI across the emnify Portal and API.
What’s New?
  • Hardware IMEI in the Portal & API:
    Identify devices using the IMEI printed on your hardware.
  • IMEI Filtering:
    Search and manage devices using Hardware IMEI [with check digit], with SV, and without check digit.
  • IMEI in Device Details and in Plain View:
    View the Hardware IMEI directly in the Device Details section or in PLAIN VIEW in Connected devices.
Why This Matters
Previously, our system displayed a different IMEI with SV, making it difficult to match devices, which you mentioned in your feedback to us. Now, you can locate and manage devices using the same IMEI you reference in your internal systems — eliminating confusion and simplifying fleet management.
How to Get Started
  • In the Portal: Go to the Connected Devices page and filter devices using IMEI or check updated device details.
  • In the API: Retrieve and search for devices based on Hardware IMEI.
👉 Try it now in the emnify Portal or check product documentation!

We’ve replaced the search bar with a new filter menu, designed to help you refine your results with greater precision and find SIMs more easily.
For example to find all unassigned SIMs, simply apply the "Device Attached" filter and select "Without Device".
With this update you can also upload CSV to enable massive device management with filtering.

We are introducing a new feature: Bulk Device Renaming. This functionality updates names of multiple devices simultaneously:
  • Bulk Renaming:
    Easily rename up to 1,000 devices at once by uploading a CSV file containing SIMs ICCID and the desired new device names.
  • User-Friendly Process:
    Navigate to the Connected Devices section in the emnify Portal, select the "Rename devices" option, and upload your prepared CSV file to initiate the renaming process. Renaming will be happening on the background so don't be afraid to switch to another page or close it.
  • Summary Report:
    After the renaming, receive a detailed report indicating the number of devices successfully renamed and any errors encountered.

Updated Connected device table

We’ve streamlined the Connected Device table to make managing your devices easier than ever. Here’s what’s new:
  • Quick Access to Device Details:
    In order to open device details you can click now on any place in the row.
  • Simplified Quick Actions:
    You can now enable or disable devices directly from quick actions, as well as reset connectivity, enable IMEI-lock and delete devices, which appear when you hover over a row.
  • Unified Status View:
    Device and SIM status are now displayed in the same column for a clearer overview.
  • Connection Details:
    Connection type and status are now clearly indicated.
  • Improved Usage Breakdown:
    Monthly usage is now split into Cellular Usage and Satellite Usage (for SAT customers).
These updates are designed to give you more clarity and efficiency in managing devices and will allow us to deliver more improvements for device table next month.
