SailPoint Non-Employee Risk Management is introducing improvements to branding configuration options provided. These updates will streamline the branding customizations allowed by each customer and provide a new UI to make these configurations quick and easy. Below is a summary including what configurations will be supported going forward, what customizations will no longer be supported, when these changes will be deployed, and expected actions that customers should take to be prepared for these changes.
What is changing
Supported Configuration Options
Application branding options will now consist of two pages: a Logos page and a new Colors page.
System > Branding > Logos The Logos page has been updated with an improved layout and now supports drag and drop functionality for ease of uploading images. Customers have the ability to upload their company logo(s) for:
- Lifecycle Login Page
- Collaboration Login Page
- Navigation Panel
- Lifecycle Logo
- Collaboration Logo
System > Branding > Colors The Colors page allows customers to configure and preview custom color options for different areas of the application. Colors can be selected for the following sections of the application:
- Navigation Panel Background
- Navigation Panel Sections
- Header
- Text Color - Limited to black or white
- Buttons - Primary, Secondary and Links
Ending support for Custom CSS files
Going forward, SailPoint’s Non-Employee application will no longer support the ability to upload a custom CSS file. Existing custom CSS files will continue to function until October 2, 2023. During this time, we will be providing a backwards compatibility option for existing customers. A temporary toggle switch will allow customers the flexibly to switch back and forth between their ‘old custom CSS’ and the new Colors page, providing customers an opportunity to test and set the new configuration options prior to the deprecation of custom CSS files. On October 2, 2023, this toggle will be removed from the application and all tenants will begin using the new configurable branding options as configured on the new Colors page.
When to expect this change
- June 12, 2023 - Enable for customer non-production tenants (i.e. dev tenants, etc.)
- June 19, 2023 - Enable for customer production tenants
For existing customers: Existing custom CSS files will continue to work and users will not see any changes to the UI. Admins will now see the new “Logos” and “Colors” page options under Branding. Admins will also see the temporary toggle switch on the “Colors” page, allowing backwards compatibility to the custom CSS files for a limited time.
Required Action: Existing customers will need to configure their desired options on the new “Logos” and “Colors” pages prior to the October 2, 2023 deadline.
For new customers: Admins for new customers will not see the temporary toggle switch for custom CSS files. Admins for new customers will use the updated “Logos” and “Colors” page options to configure branding options within the application.
Why are we making this change
Supporting the previous high-level customizability in a multi-tenant SaaS environment has been challenging and negatively impacted our ability to quickly deploy enhancements and other changes to our UI. This shift to “configurability vs customizability” will improve upon our continuous development process and allow us to deliver UI changes faster and more consistently, with less defects and unintended impacts to our users.
In the event of any issues, please open a support ticket with SailPoint NERM for escalated resolution.
