Delegate365 changelog version 2.8Setup Wizard

Delegate365 changelog version 2.8Setup Wizard

In Delegate365 version 2.8 there´s a new setup wizard included (as announced here). With this function companies no longer need to create a (temporary) administrator user for doing the setup process of Delegate365 but instead can setup their Azure Active Directory on their own for working with Delegate365. Prerequisites To configure your real company AAD with Delegate365 you get two access information by atwork: The Setup-URL (which usually goes like https://[yourcompany].azurewebsites.net/setup) and a configuration password (which is in fact a code) to give you the access for the setup process. This code is important and valid for this specific Delegate365 appliance. With that code you can setup the service accounts till the code is changed. More about that later. ...

Delegate365 changelog version 2.7

In Delegate365 version 2.7 there were some minor fixes rolled out. Style Sheets and client messages were updated. The user import with an CSV file had a problem with updating the new imported users in the users list. Since D365 uses a cache layer for user objects to improve performance since version 2.3 the new users didn´t show up immediately after the file import but after the automatic sync task (which runs in the background in a predefined time frame). With this fix the new importet users now show up immediately in the users list. ...

Delegate365 changelog version 2.6

Delegate365 changelog version 2.6. We internally changed the encryption of stored credentials and extended it to protect all custom values. D365 uses an own Service Account for accessing and transferring user data to Azure Active Directory. For Exchange functionality like Alias email addresses or distribution lists as well as reporting data D365 needs additional credentials. These essential data must be stored in a secure way. To ensure safety in D365 we changed the encryption and extended it to all properties stored in the D365 database with version 2.6. Now all custom config values (even fields like company name, address, phone number, etc.) are encrypted with an Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. ...
