New Features

System Notifications now displayed for Admins

System notifications have now been added alongside user notifications. The notifications and their settings are accessed from the Bell icon in the top header bar.

In order to get the relevant notifications:

  1. Navigate to the Marketplace.
  2. Download Siemplify integration number 65.0.
  3. Check if you have any of the following Jobs in your platform:
    Connectors Monitor, Actions Monitor, ETL Monitor, Jobs Monitor, Machine Resource Utilization.
  4. If so, navigate to Settings > Jobs. For each job, click on the Menu button on the top right of the screen and delete them.
  5. Download each of these jobs from scratch.


SAML Support for "Unsolicited Response"
An Unsolicited Response checkbox has been added to the External Authentication page. This enables the SAML users to enter the Siemplify platform directly from their SAML service provider. 

So for example, if your customer is an Okta user, they can set up and enter Siemplify through the Okta platform.

API CHANGES
A new parameter has been added to the
api/external/v1/settings/AddOrUpdateSamlSettings endpoint:

AllowUnsolicitedResponse *Type boolean. Default is False

OAuth now added for Microsoft Email Settings

In line with Microsoft new security standards, when using Microsoft Exchange settings for sending out system emails, you can now use the Exchange OAuth. For more information on the added security standards, please read Deprecation of Basic authentication in Exchange Online

To support this, a new checkbox has been added to the platform under Settings > Advanced > Email Settings. Enabling this checkbox displays two fields that you need to fill: Azure Client ID and Azure Tenant ID.

To obtain the ID information and enable this feature from Microsoft:

  1. Log into the Microsoft Azure portal:
  2. Click on the App Registrations.
  3. Locate the OAuth mail application app that you have previously created.
  4. Copy over the Client ID and the Tenant ID from the top of the screen and paste it into the Siemplify platform. 
  5. Navigate to Manage > Advanced Settings > Allow public client flows - and make sure it's set to Yes.
  6. Click Save for changes to apply.


Playbooks now saved together with their Views

In order to support future features, there is now one Save button which saves both Playbooks and any Views that are associated with them. As such, the "Save View" button has been removed.
