This release introduces improvements to application management, federation visibility, API family configuration, and mobile usability. It also includes multiple fixes addressing validation issues, endpoint generation behaviour, and user interface consistency across the Directory.
The Application Details page has been redesigned to present information in a clearer and more structured layout. Key information such as flags and core application details is now displayed prominently at the top of the page, while detailed sections are collapsed by default to improve readability and navigation.
A new guided wizard simplifies the process of creating Identity Providers. The wizard provides clearer visual feedback during configuration and consolidates the creation of an IDP and its version into a single flow, making the setup process more intuitive.
Applications that participate in a federation now display clear visual indicators within the UI. A Federated tag is shown on the application page, and a collapsible section provides visibility into the federation hierarchy, including the current entity, parent entity, and trust anchor.
Additional helpers and contextual guidance have been introduced when configuring API Families, helping users better understand certification types and configuration requirements during creation.
The sidebar behaviour on mobile devices has been redesigned to better match expected interaction patterns. The sidebar now opens as a partial overlay instead of a full-screen panel, allowing users to maintain context with the underlying page while navigating.
Certain configuration forms now support prepopulated values, reducing manual input and improving consistency when creating new resources.
Endpoint generation logic has been improved when creating API resources through the wizard. The system now correctly generates endpoint patterns based on the actual API version and properly handles version numbers and dot notation within endpoint paths.
This release introduces new ecosystem configuration capabilities, clearer metadata visibility, and usability improvements across the Directory UI, alongside multiple fixes improving stability, validation, and administration workflows.
API Families can now be configured through Reference Data to control which API families are available in the ecosystem. This allows ecosystem operators to centrally manage supported API families and provides participants with a clear, authoritative view of available APIs.
Certificates now support a Description field to help identify their purpose. The Description can be provided during certificate creation and updated later, improving clarity for participants managing certificates across multiple environments.
A redesigned Authorisation Server details page introduces a clearer, more structured layout. Key information such as flags and core server details is easier to identify, with sections grouped and collapsed by default to improve readability.
Federation details now display all relevant federation endpoints instead of only the Fetch endpoint. This improves transparency when configuring, validating, and troubleshooting Federation integrations.
Authorities now clearly indicate which Organisation they belong to when viewed under Reference Data. When applicable, an Organisation tag links directly to the associated Organisation. Legacy Authorities include an explanation clarifying that they were created under the previous model and are retained for reference and migration purposes.
The UI now clearly explains the difference between Federation roles and Directory roles, including how metadata behaves differently between them. This reduces confusion when role metadata does not propagate for Federation roles.
Several Directory pages now use a unified layout with improved spacing, pagination, and visual consistency, including Organisations, Authorisation Mapping, Domain Users, Terms & Conditions, and Audit History. Navigation clarity and overall readability have been improved across these areas.
The legacy "New Organisation" button has been removed, and the guided Organisation creation wizard is now the standard way to create Organisations.
Action labels across the Directory have been standardised to Enable / Disable to improve clarity and consistency when managing resources.
Data Administrator users can now manage the "Participant Terms & Conditions Signing required?" setting when editing Organisations.
Logo uploads now display an image preview before saving. Drag-and-drop uploads are consistently supported across Organisations, Servers, and Applications.
