New Features in ADONIS 16.3
ADONIS 16.3 is a minor update to ADONIS 16.0 LTS, reaffirming our commitment to accessibility while introducing key improvements for administrators, including enhanced flexibility in authentication settings and the ability to export user information as an Excel file.
Additionally, this release includes fixes for issues discovered since the release of ADONIS 16.0 LTS.
New Features for All Users
WCAG 2.2 Certification
Building on our strong focus on enhancing accessibility during the development of ADONIS 16.2, ADONIS is now officially certified as WCAG 2.2 AA compliant, starting with version 16.2.2.
This ensures an improved experience for users with disabilities by adhering to the latest accessibility standards.
New Features for ADONIS Administrators
SAML Authentication: Multiple ACS URLs Supported
Administrators can now configure different Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URLs at the connector level for SAML authentication, in addition to the global ACS URL. This allows for more flexible authentication setups, supporting multiple IdPs or authentication endpoints. Additionally, the global ACS URL is now optional. If left undefined, ADONIS will automatically use the base URL as a fallback.
For details, please refer to the chapter "Authentication" in the Administration Help and the ADONIS SAML Guide.
Authentication: Clone Connectors
A new function allows administrators to duplicate connectors, creating an exact copy of all settings. Associated certificate files will also be copied automatically.
For details, please refer to the section "Adjust Connectors" in the Administration Help.
OAuth 2.0 Support for Email Settings
The Email settings in ADONIS Administration have been extended, allowing configuration of OAuth 2.0 authentication for email services that require it.
For details, please refer to the section "Email" in the Administration Help.
Flagging Relations as Mandatory
The Properties component in ADONIS Administration now allows editing relations. Administrators can rename relations and mark them as mandatory, ensuring that certain relations must be filled out in ADONIS.
For details, please refer to the section "Edit Relation" in the Administration Help.
IP Access Control for ADONIS Administration
It’s now possible to define which IP addresses are allowed to access ADONIS Administration, providing an additional layer of security.
For details, please refer to the section "Security Settings" in the Administration Help.
Export User Information to Excel
A new feature allows administrators to export user information as an Excel file (XLSX format) for use in other applications. The export includes assigned user groups, system roles, repositories, and user details such as names and email addresses.
For details, please refer to the section "View Users" in the Administration Help.
