New functionality

SCIM API management in the UI

The v3.42.0 release makes it possible for administrators to manage Elimity Insights' SCIM API in the UI. More specifically, they can enable, disable and regenerate tokens for the API in the new 'SCIM API' tab on the 'Advanced settings' page:

Refer to our dedicated documentation for additional information about Elimity Insights' SCIM API.

Atlassian Cloud built-in connector

Elimity Insights v3.42.0 also includes a built-in connector for Atlassian Cloud, allowing connector admins to import users and groups their Atlassian Cloud organization. As always, our dedicated documentation contains additional information.

Gateway-based imports for custom sources

The v3.42.0 release brings significant improvements for importing data into custom sources. Up until now, connector admins had to choose between manual imports, file uploads or import scripts pushing data to Elimity Insights' API. With this feature we offer an alternative to the import scripts that both requires less maintenance and is more user-friendly. More specifically, connector admins can now enable gateway-based imports for custom sources in the new 'CONFIG' tab on the source's detail page:

Refer to our dedicated documentation page for additional information about this feature.

Bug fixes & improvements

Support for immediately copying registration links when creating user accounts

From v3.42.0 onwards admins can immediately copy registration links when they (re)send invitation emails for new user accounts:

Minor bug fixes & improvements

As always, this new release brings some smaller bug fixes and improvements:

  • The SAP SuccessFactors built-in connector includes a new 'status' attribute type.

  • Two new endpoints are available for clients authenticating with API tokens: GET /api/agent/stored-queries;format=json and GET /api/agent/scopes.

  • We renamed the 'Azure AD' built-in connector to 'Entra ID', including related documentation.

Deployment changes

Removal of the ScimPassword configuration option

Since Elimity Insights now supports UI-based management of its SCIM API, the ScimPassword configuration value in secrets.yml is no longer effective. Migrating to v3.42.0 disables the API, customers using SCIM should re-enable it in the UI, which means Elimity Insights will generate a new token. Please contact your Elimity representative if you want to migrate your original ScimPassword value to v3.42.0.

plv8 extension for PostgreSQL must be available

From v3.42.0 onwards Elimity Insights uses the plv8 extension in its database. On-premise customers must make sure this extension is available in their PostgreSQL server:

  • Customers using 'Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server' should make sure the plv8 extension is allowed; refer to the official documentation for additional information.

  • For customers using 'Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL' by Google: this extension should just always be available. However, you'll need to (temporarily) grant the cloudsqlsuperuser role for the SQL user performing this migration.

Please contact your Elimity representative if you need additional assistance with ensuring plv8 is available.

New configuration options for gateway authentication

As mentioned previously, the v3.42.0 release includes a new feature for importing data into custom sources. Server administrators can configure how Elimity Insights should authenticate when contacting gateways to perform imports. The snippet below summarizes every new configuration option (all in secrets.yml), please refer to our dedicated documentation for additional information.
