[Unity-idm-discuss] Unity 2.3.0 released

[Krzysztof B. <kb...@un...>]

Dear Subscribers,

A new release was just made available. The biggest innovation of it 
won't be noticeable to you: it was the first fully automated[*] release 
- including only few mouse clicks to have everything updated from source 
repository tag to updated testbed environment. Of course big part of our 
work was focused on already mentioned migration to GitHub and JIRA.

Besides of this big change, the new release brings two significant 
improvements:

- Emails sent from Unity can have content type set to HTML. What is more 
a new type of message template was introduced: generic. Generic 
templates are not sent on their own, but can be included in other 
templates. This way a site wide message templates can be easily managed. 
And yes – Unity comes now with nice HTML emails available out of the box.
- SAML metadata discovery and management subsystem was completely 
rewritten to eliminate the issues which were quite often brought by our 
users. The new implementation is significantly simpler, better tested 
and should be more stable.

Besides there are some smaller improvements as OIDC discovery and PAM 
bugs fixed.



What is more we have already made a big progress on subsequent release 
work. It should be available still in this year and will bring way 
bigger changes greatly simplifying integration with typical external 
IdPs and translation profiles management.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
