[Unity-idm-discuss] Unity 3.4.0 released

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

Dear Subscribers,

Unity 3.4.0 was just released and brings couple of significant new features.


          FIDO/WebAuthn support

Finally Unity offers support for hardware tokens based authentication. 
And more, as the support is based on the FIDO standard, so all 
compatible devices and even software like Android OS or Windows Hello 
can be used for authentication.


          Refreshed consent screen

Consent screen was significantly reworked. Technical language was 
removed, information is end-user oriented, unnecessary data was dropped 
to have cleaner presentation.

To take full advantage of the new look and feel make sure to properly 
describe your OAuth scopes and set logos for the clients (note that 
OAuth clients logo now uses image attribute type, supporting variety of 
formats).


          Sub-projects support in UpMan

UpMan UI was generally refreshed and aligned with theme of Console. 
Besides of that a new feature was added: Unity admin can allow selected 
project managers to create sub-projects on their own. This feature must 
be enabled on each project and additionally Unity offers new 
authorization role which needs to be assigned to authorized managers.

Sub-projects can be managed with UpMan in the very same way as root 
projects created from Consloe. Also in Console all groups which are 
managed via UpMan are marked and can be easily identified in the group 
browser.


          Admin UI dropped

As previously announced the legacy AdminUI was dropped in this release. 
Make sure to enable console before the update.


          jpegImage attribute syntax replaced by image syntax

The deprecated jpegImage attribute syntax was dropped. All instances 
will be migrated during update to the image attribute syntax. This 
change allows for using PNG images (and GIFs) everywhere, as well as 
improves JPG images quality which was noticeably impacted by the jpegImage.
