- Release Notes
September 2023
We are excited to introduce significant improvements to Personal Access Tokens (PATs). The updated PAT system provides developers with an efficient and secure method to obtain tokens with user-scoped access. PATs can limit risk when working with applications or automations that do not allow for other authentication mechanisms, or where you do not want to provide your credentials. If the app is compromised, you simply revoke the PAT.
Personal Access Tokens are only available for local users.
The core capabilities:
- Users removed from an organization will have their associated PATs automatically revoked to prevent unauthorized access.
-
Organization administrators can manage issued PATs, enabling easy revocation of access when necessary.
For detailed information on implementing PATs, please refer to the documentation.
To enhance your user experience, we're excited to introduce a new feature that allows you to customize the visibility and product order icons available in the left sidebar navigation. This customization enhancement can be done for the navigation bar across each tenant view.
We're excited to announce the latest enhancement to our platform's access control capabilities — the introduction of a new user group: Citizen Developers. This new group is defined at the organization level and will be seamlessly integrated across all services within the platform.
With the Citizen Developers group, citizen developers can access resources pertinent to their work without any unnecessary access clutter, leading to reduced overhead for your administrators.
To learn more about how the user group is integrated into the various services within the platform, refer to the product documentation.
To streamline email management, we are now providing admins with greater control over their organization email settings.
Default email settings for newly created organizations
-
the organization UiPath email
-
the UiPath SMTP server
Organization admins have the ability to switch from default settings to custom settings. They can define their own SMTP settings to align with their specific requirements. The new SMTP settings are saved at the organization level, ensuring they are applied when any email is sent within the context of that organization.
The date when a change is first announced in the release notes is the date when it first becomes available.
If you don't see the change yet, you can expect to see it soon, after we roll out changes to all the regions.
We recommend that you regularly check the deprecation timeline for any updates regarding features that will be deprecated and removed.
