[Unity-idm-discuss] Release 3.3.0 is out

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

Dear Subscribers,

Unity 3.3.0 release brings a large set of improvements and brand new 
features. Additionally couple of bugs were fixed, see in the detailed 
changelog at https://www.unity-idm.eu/downloads/


          Policy documents

Policy documents are a new global concept in Unity. Administrator can 
define documents covering ToU, SLA, marketing agreements and any other 
alike. Documents are versioned, can be provided in multiple forms and 
can be mandatory or optional.

Defined policy documents can be configured as a part of registration, 
enquiry or sign-in over IdP endpoint flows. Unity will record (as a 
special user attribute) acceptance or refusal, allowing to re-prompt 
after document update. It is additionally possible to configure in what 
way acceptance should be requested.


          One time passwords

A new credential type is available: one time codes, technically the 
popular TOTP variant. It is a credential useful typically as the 2nd 
factor in two step authentication.

With this credential users can verify their identity with help of Google 
Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, RedHat’s FreeOTP or any other 
similar app.


          Other notable improvements

  * Shared translation profiles can be managed in Admin Console now.
  * Default appearance of the authentication screen (and all other
    views) was improved a lot, aligned and unified with general Unity style.
  * Authentication screen appearance on narrow mobile screens was
    improved in case of multiple columns with authentication options.
  * Registration form can be configured to deny request using an
    occupied identity at submission time.
  * Credentials editing in Admin Console and HomeUI was reworked and
    offers much better UX now.
  * MFA preference can be controlled with registration form action
  * We started to provide a more intuitive contextual help in Admin
    Console. Only few components use this feature so far, but we will
    expand it in the next revisions. For examples see Realms or OTP
    credential definition.
