API Updates

Great news! We are updating our APIs, and you will have two years to cutover to the new APIs. The new APIs will enable you to take advantage of the major performance and scalability improvements.

If you do not use APIs, no need to cutover to the new APIs.

API documentation coming soon!

Why?

We wanted to upgrade our engine to provide improvements to scalability and performance as well as improve customer experience by enhancing filtering and sorting capabilities on columns. The new engine will also help us build out highly requested feature enhancements in Certifications.

Who is affected?

This will impact all customers, and they will be migrated over to the new certification (perform and scalability) engine.

Important Dates

GA Release: End of March 2025 (This will be a staged release taking place over several months).

Great news! When can we request this feature to be activated?

What is the difference between non-legacy and legacy campaigns?
What is the benefit of having two different lists of campaigns?

I find that too little is visible for an important column (“name”), in comparison with other columns. It would be nice if some logic would be implemented to make the information easier to read, without having to manually readjust column widths every time.

Will these functionalities be available also for the Role Composition Campaign?
Thanks

Wow, great improvements!
Love that Object owner certification will finally be supported out-of-the-box.

Looking forward to the releases.

This is a good functionality. Any plans to add Manager certification feature also to this?

6

No plans just yet, but we are aware of the importance of manager certs.

non-legacy campaigns are campaigns completed on the current Certification engine. And new campaigns are the one’s created in the new Certification engine.

Hi @SarahKhan ,

Would it be possible have this feature enabled in our tenant earlier? Tried to reach your inbox as well regarding the same.

Thanks,
Amar

Ok, thankyou! It would be really helpful to add Manager Certification and ability to add New Email templates to our tenants as soon as possible as this is a basic requirement in Certification campaigns.

@SarahKhan, Thanks for the update. It’s a great enhancement! Are there any plans to add application/source-specific fields in the access certifications? We have received several requests to include application-specific fields on the access review screen, which would help reviewers make more informed decisions.
