Version 5.3. Release date 10 June 2021
New features and enhancements:
Improved renewing of annual Google Workspace subscriptions with changing the amount of resources
Previously, annual Google Workspace subscriptions billed monthly or yearly could be renewed only with the current amount of resources or the amount equal to the number of active assigned licenses on the Google side. Now changing the amount of resources is available. The platform checks that the new amount of a resource is not less than the number of active assigned licenses on the Google side. The platform also checks the plan SKU of a subscription on the Google side. If it differs from the SKU in the platform, the subscription on the Google side is recreated with the new SKU which matches the SKU in the platform. (CR-1333)
Implemented signing in to the Operator Control Panel with a Microsoft account via the Microsoft AppSource catalog
The ability to sign in to the Operator Control Panel with a Microsoft account is mandatory for publishing the ActivePlatform application in the Microsoft AppSource catalog. Using a Microsoft account to access the Operator Control Panel is only available for managers who contacted via the ActivePlatform application in the Microsoft AppSource catalog. For authentication of a manager, the platform uses the implemented integration with the Microsoft Azure AD service and the manager's account in the Operator Control Panel that should be created manually using the contact information in the request. (CR-1304)
