This update addresses an issue preventing new or modified settings from being saved to properties that have a setting containing a dot “.” in the setting name.

The following issues have been addressed in this release of the Identity Cloud Console.

Console Sign In Page: * The Region selector was missing from screens that had only social or SAML sign in options.

Manage Properties: * Custom client settings can now be deleted. * Custom settings no longer allow spaces in their name. * To view or edit a Property in Manage Properties select the new Edit option from the action menu rather than clicking on the Property.

Schema Management: * The length of an attribute sometimes displayed as 999 rather than the correct value. * A query-able attribute can now have a length of 1000. * In the Validation and Transformations section, after choosing “Globally” for the Unique setting on an attribute your choice could not be reverted.

Registration Builder: * A View Form option has been added to the list of Forms shown at the bottom of the Edit Field screen. * Trying to create or edit a translatable string field fails with a “not a valid schemaAttribute” error. * The Label setting is now available in the field editor for all field types except for Hidden, Read Only, and Translatable String. * After promoting a flow to an App in another region the copied flow was displayed but the target App was not opened in the side navigation. * The Data Validation dialog title now reflects whether you are editing an existing validation or adding a new one.

Identity Cloud OpenId Connect endpoints now support the following: * Access Tokens can be issued as JSON Web Tokens (JWT) * Configuration and usage details can be found [here|[https://identitydocs.akamai.com/home/hosted-login-token-reference#jwt]]

The 2020–04–08 Console update introduces new capabilities for Schema Management: * Authorized Console users can now create and manage schemas and schema attributes from within the Console UI. * The new capabilities are available to users who have the Application Admin and Application Configuration Admin roles. * For more information please see [https://identitydocs.akamai.com/home/managing-schemas]

The 2020–04–01 Console update introduces significant enhancements to Registration Builder: * Authorized Console users can now fully manage the fields and forms associated with sign-in pages, registration flows, and user profile management screens from within the Console UI. * For more information please see [https://identitydocs.akamai.com/home/registration-builder]. * Note that a related Schema Management update will follow in a few days.

The 2020–03–19 Console update includes the following performance enhancement: * A Region selector has been added to the Console sign-in page, enabling the user to go directly to the Region of interest. The Region can also be changed from within the Console and whatever Region was selected in the Console when the user signs out will be remembered by the web browser the next time the user signs-in from the same computer. The previous polling behavior, whereby the Console checked each Identity Cloud region to see where the user has Applications, has been removed, speeding up the Console sign-in process. As a result, Console users will now see all Identity Cloud Regions in the selection list, even though they may not have Applications in some Regions.

New features:

• Force zone deletes. You have the option to force zone deletions in cases when safety checks previously prevented it. The user interface alerts you to the risks of the deletion and requires your confirmation before the zone is deleted.

• Zone transfer status from Zone list. Zone list includes icons that display the status of many zone transfers in a single view. Green indicates a successful zone transfer, yellow indicates that one or more zone transfers have issues, and red indicates a zone transfer failure. You can click the icons to view additional status details for each zone.

• Terraform Provider. You can use Terraform Provider to minimize the activity required to manage and configure Edge DNS zones and record sets, especially in organizations that use multiple authoritative DNS providers.

New features:

• New UI ergonomics. Modern and more responsive user interface. Uses Akamai’s new reporting framework. Inline documentation for adding zone records.

• New zone management API. More granularity. Offers full control to create, read, update, and delete zone data.

• New resource record types. Provides support for CAA and TLSA records, as well as TXT and SPF improvements.

• Improved zone transfer workflow. Provides easier readout and state indication. Offers improved TSIG behaviors for keys.

• Improved SLA workflow. Enables you to more easily monitor SLA service availability and align with SLA terms.
