PSA (Privacy and Security Assessment) Compliance
- The password reset procedure is now protected against automated use or misuse. After entering the email address, the user is now asked for his 2nd factor. This ensures, that it's not possible to spam users with password reset mails. Of course, it requires that 2FA has been enabled for the user. In general, it's recommend to enable 2FA for all your users. Therefore, 2FA has always been enabled by default when you create a new user on the DevOps Portal.
Enhancements
- Starting with Bitbucket 8.2, a new Create repository permission has been added by the vendor. This new permission is now granted to all users with a MASTER role. To enable it for existing projects, simply initiate a Resync of the project in the DevOps Portal. Please note, that users automatically get admin permissions in the repositories they create.
- In some tools (currently Jira, Confluence and Bitbucket) Project ADMINs can directly add individual users to their project choosing from one of the available roles or permissions. This is now cleaned-up when a Project Resync is initiated. To be more precise, a Project Resync removes any Project roles or permissions for users which don't have a role assigned in the DevOps portal.
Improvements
- Prepared the DevOps Portal for configuring tool specific project settings in the future.
- Updates of used software frameworks and libraries.
- When a Technical User is deleted, the sort order of the table is now preserved.
Bugfixes
- On the Projects page, assigning a role to a user which he already has, obviously has no effect. But unfortunately, after such an action the Assign button was disabled, even when another user was selected. This is fixed now.
Known Issues
- Unfortunately, the links to Agile Board and Backlog in the Jira tile of the DevOps Portal homepage do not work properly for users which have more than one project. In fact, the links will lead to the last visited agile board on Jira, independent to the project selection on the homepage of the DevOps Portal. This is caused by the fact, that agile boards are not part of a Jira project, but instead are independent entities. We are striving to find a solution for the problem in a future version.
