Table 1. Enhancements and New Features

The following enhancements and new features have been added.

DescriptionTracking ID
If your tenant has multiple identity providers configured, you can now select an identity provider in a drop-down list box when adding users individually or in bulk. When adding a user, the domain of the email address provided must match what is configured for the selected identity provider.US336292
A new window for assigning assets has been implemented. This update provides improvements to overall usability when assigning assets and permissions, including the following:
  • You can now select multiple assets.
  • You can now select either a single asset or the hierarchy of assets below an asset.
  • Assigning permissions to an asset also assigns permissions to the hierarchy of assets below it.

A tenant can now be configured with multiple identity providers, each restricted by a set of email domains. As a result of this enhancement:
  • A user administrator cannot create a user in the User Account and Authentication (UAA) service with an email domain matching that of an identity provider.
  • Upon attempting to log in, an existing UAA user with a conflicting email domain will be redirected to the associated identity provider.
  • Permissions assigned to an existing UAA user with a conflicting email domain must be assigned to the newly created federated user (the existing UAA user can then be removed).
  • When a user signs in to a tenant configured with multiple identity providers, the UAA discovery page will appear prior to the corresponding identity provider sign-in page.

In the User Management page, the following permissions have been added for the Mechanical Integrity module. When these permissions are assigned to Security Users, the users are granted privileges to manage the states for inspection recommendations.
  • SC Recommendation Management Implementer: The users can change the status of the Recommendations from the Approved or In Progress state to the Completed state.
  • SC Recommendation Management Reviewer: The users can change the status of the Recommendations from the Pending Approval state to the Pending Review, Approved, Canceled, or Rejected state.
