Release notes

All changes per version, grouped into Added, Changed, Fixed and notes. For a shorter summary of the highlights see What’s New in Users & Permissions 3.0.

Users & Permissions 3.0

Version 3.0 is still under development. The information on this page may still change before release.

Added

  • Tenants can be created and managed through the interface, not just in the user interface. Intended for automated provisioning.

  • A space now has a type — General, Infrastructure or Application. An application space obtains locations, devices and tags from an infrastructure space it references, so an installation built once serves several use cases without duplicated upkeep. The space overviews show the type as a column of its own (Spaces).

Changed

  • Group events in the log are now called GROUP_CREATED, GROUP_CHANGED and GROUP_DELETED. They previously carried the types of the user events and were indistinguishable from them; entries already recorded keep their old type. Creating and editing a user is now recorded as USER_CREATED and USER_CHANGED — both types existed but were never used (Audit events).

  • A call to the interface without authentication is now rejected as such instead of being redirected to the login page. Third-party systems get an unambiguous error instead of apparently successful responses carrying the login page as their content.

Fixed

  • On the first start of a new installation, creating the bundled trusted certificates failed (Trusted certificates).

Update notes

  • MongoDB 6.0 is now the minimum requirement.

  • The user interface was moved to a new version of the UI framework. Please check your usual workflows after updating.

  • If an integration of yours evaluates the response to an unauthenticated call, expect a rejection rather than a redirect from this version on.

  • Existing spaces are set to type General and behave exactly as before. Whoever changes nothing sees no difference.

  • The type and the infrastructure space cannot be changed after creation. Whoever needs a different type creates a new space (Spaces).

Released on 13 May 2026.

Added

Added

Fixed

Users & Permissions 2.1.1

Released on 4 March 2026.

Fixed

  • Synchronising the users from the identity provider did not update all users (Users).

  • A permission on a space also allowed reading the tenant (Permissions).

Users & Permissions 2.1.0

Released on 2 March 2026.

Added

  • User groups: permissions can be granted to a group instead of to every single user (Groups).

  • Several roles can be selected when a permission is added (Permissions).

  • Actions in lists are also available through a button in the toolbar, and the online help is opened with a button in the header.

Fixed
