24.3.0 Minor Features

Search Returns an Exact Match for Unique ID

Note:
This feature will be rolled out after the communicated release date. It will be available any time between the communicated release date and December 16, 2024.

When users search for a unique ID and include the monogram (for example, INC-7) the search results will display an exact match for the unique ID at the top of the results under the Unique ID Matches section. All other results will be displayed under the All Results section.

If a unique ID match is returned in the search results, the Unique ID Matches and All Results sections will remain when clicking into the detailed view for the object type. Once a filter is applied to the search results, the separation between Unique ID Matches and All Results sections will no longer be displayed, and all the results will show as a single list.

Benefits:

  • Users can now quickly find an exact match for a unique ID instead of searching through the large number of results returned.

Supporting Documentation:

Please refer to the articles in the Search section for more information on searching for objects in Resolver. 

Improved Navigation to Object Types From a Search

When users search in Resolver, a side panel will appear on the Search Results page that lists all of the object types that returned results for the search.

In the side panel, users can also see a total count of the number of returned results for each object type. Users can click the name of the object type in the side panel to navigate to the Search Results page for that specific object type.

Benefits:

  • Users can now quickly scan the returned search results for each object type in one view instead of scrolling through the large number of results returned.

Supporting Documentation:

Please refer to the articles in the Search section for more information on searching for objects in Resolver. 

Search Progress and Error Indicator

While a search is in progress in Resolver, a progress/loading indicator will be displayed on the screen to communicate to users that the search is in progress. If there is an error in loading the results, an error message will be displayed instead.

Field Editor Updated

When opening a field from the Fields tab of an object or an assessment, the field details will now appear in a new palette for easier editing. When closing the editor, users will be navigated back to the Fields tab.

Additionally, when clicking the Configure Value Concatenation button from a field, the modal will now be centrally positioned on the screen. 

Benefits:

  • Users can now review and edit field details in a convenient way so that they don’t have to spend unnecessary time navigating back to the Fields tab and searching for the field name in the list. 

Enhanced Previewing Images Capabilities 

When previewing images, users will now be able to enlarge the image in the preview mode before they download it. This feature is available for both image and attachment fields.

Benefits:

  • Users can now preview and enlarge image attachments without having to first download them.

Important Notes:

  • This feature is also available for read-only image fields.
  • When previewing cropped images, the preview might not upsize/enlarge properly. This behavior will be addressed in an upcoming release.

New Display Download Button for Attachments

Note:
This feature is only available for users that have Document Management enabled on their Org.

Administrators can now manage whether an attachment can be downloaded or not with a new Display Download Button toggle for attachment fields in a configuration form. When the Display Download Button toggle is turned off, the option to download the attachment will be disabled.

Note:
The Display Download Button option doesn't apply to the download options for Microsoft Office files for Orgs that have Allow editing online via Microsoft Office enabled through Document Management.  

Benefits:

  • Administrators can now restrict a user’s ability to download attachments to prevent unnecessary or unintentional download on to employees devices.

Important Notes:

  • Users may not be able to open text files if the Display Download Button toggle is turned off.
  • If the Display Download Button toggle is turned off, the ability to download the file can be restricted for a user regardless of their permissions or which user uploaded the file.

Supporting Documentation:

Please refer to the Enabling the Display Download Button on Attachment Fields article for further information on displaying the download button on forms. 

Confidential Portal Security Enhancements

Note:
This feature is behind a feature flag. If you’re interested in enabling this feature, please contact your CSM or the Services team.

We have introduced additional security for Confidential Portal users who need to protect themselves against potential bots and spam flooding their portal with submissions. In order to address these concerns, we’ve implemented rate limiting on the number of logins to the Confidential Portal and rate limiting on the number of submissions created during a session via the Confidential Portal.

Once the threshold of session log ins has been reached, further attempts to access the Confidential Portal will require users to complete a CAPTCHA. Once the threshold of submissions created has been reached, users will be required to log in again in order to create more.

The thresholds being introduced are as follows:

  • On a per Org basis: all the Portal URL accesses in an Org, up to 30 sessions, may be started within in an hour time frame. Once this limit has been reached, further attempts to access the Confidential Portal will result in a CAPTCHA being displayed.
  • On a per Org session: all the submissions created by the same user on the same browser, up to 30 submissions, may be created within an hour time frame. Once this limit has been reached, the user won’t be able to create any further submissions and will be logged out of the system.

Benefits:

  • Orgs can now enable additional security measures of monitoring submissions and requiring a CAPTCHA so that their data is secure from public threats.

Dashboards - Radar Chart

The Radar Chart is a new dashboard type which allows users to show object on a polygon grid, depicting category values as poles and the value column aggregates for each category are points on the poles. Points on the grid are connected with a line, creating a polygon. The horizontal axis represents likelihood, and the vertical axis represents impact severity. A radar chart helps visualize distribution and relationships, highlighting critical issues that need attention.

UX Improvements

Updated Icons

We have updated icons across the Resolver platform for a fresher look and better user experience.

Updated Create User and Edit User Screens

The Create User and Edit User screens have been updated to ensure that critical user management tasks are presented first and to minimize the number of clicks to reach the most useful tasks. The following changes can now be seen on the Create User and Edit User screens:

  • The page layout has been changed so that the Account Status, Advanced Permissions, and Data Warehouse Settings section appear in the right sidebar.
  • Portal URL access, user group, and role membership will now appear in tabs under a new User Memberships section.

Additionally, the Change User Information button will now only display on the User Profile card when the value in the First Name, Last Name, or Email field is changed.

For Portal URL Access users, the Enforce org-level MFA toggle, and the Reset org-level MFA for this User and Reset MFA for This User buttons have been disabled on the Create User and Edit User screens.

Supporting Documentation:

Please refer to the articles in the User Management section for more information on creating and editing users. 

Newly Named "Data Access" Section

In the Admin Overview screen, the People section has been renamed to the Data Access section.


Accessibility Improvements

  • We’ve clarified labels on Audit Trail change entries to make them more accurate and helpful. The text now clearly identifies what the change was, helping users who might use tools such as screen readers.
  • Descriptions can now be read at 200% zoom. On screens less than 768px wide, a single line description will still be visible. On screens more than 768px wide, object descriptions will show up to 3 lines before truncation.
  • User Audit Trail filters, such as the email and date picker filters, can now be used at 200% zoom.
  • We’ve improved assistive technology support for rich text formatting in Forms.
  • Toggle switches in Assessments now have proper labels, supporting assistive technologies to provide more helpful guidance.
  • Fixed an issue where emails that used tables for layout were difficult for assistive technologies. Now, the email template preview will use a more modern layout, which may result in slight deviations compared to the sent emails (which may still use tables for layout). This improvement will not impact the emails themselves.
  • Email template configuration now has better labels in configuration (such as the subject line).
  • Email template forms now have a descriptive header.
  • When using dark mode, free form text hyperlinks now have improved contrast ratio.
  • When using dark mode, the Looks like we’ve lost connection to Resolver error screen has improved contrast ratio.
  • Fixed an issue with visibility of hidden text for charts in reports. Previously, this would trigger browsers and other assistive technology to identify the hidden text as something that might be important. Now, the hidden text is better hidden as to not interfere with assistive technology.

Improvements

  • To ensure Resolver continuously meets the Information Security industry's best practices, the link sent in the Reset Password email for non-SSO users will now expire after 15 minutes.
  • To ensure Resolver continuously meets the Information Security industry's best practices, the link sent in the Activate Profile email for non-SSO users will now expire after 30 minutes. 
  • We have disabled autocomplete and field history on the Resolver login screen to ensure that autocomplete functionality doesn’t accept or suggest the potentially dangerous input. The autoComplete attribute has been turned off on the following pages:
    • “Email address” and “Password” fields in the Resolver login screen
    • "Email address” field in the Change Password screen
    • “New password” field in the Reset Password screen

New Content Translations

Any empty cells in the Language column must be translated, and the Language Template file must be uploaded to the system for changes. For further information, please refer to the Add a Language article.


Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where nested bullet points in a dropdown menu weren't properly displayed. Now, the User Management menu option will appear with a nested bullet point for Advanced Permissions users.
  • Implemented a number of incremental accessibility improvements.
  • Fixed an issue where searching for keywords with '&' or '&&' in between keywords only searched for keywords before '&' or '&&' in global searches. Now, searches will process search terms with '&' in the search text.
  • Fixed an issue where Resolver switched to dark mode when entering Impersonation mode, despite the system settings. Now, preference will now be maintained when entering Impersonation mode.
  • Resolved an issue where timestamps weren't being included for date & time fields in Dashboards.
  • Fixed an issue where Activity view searches weren't displaying expected results. Now, users should be able to find the object when searching Activity view.
  • Fixed an issue where the Idea Portal submission wasn't auto-populating the user email. Now, the new portal’s private key enables the email to be auto-populated.
  • Resolved an issue where, after a formula deletion returned a Redis error, it couldn't redeploy. Now, redeployment will not fail after formula deletion and post Process run.
  • Fixed an issue where the Welcome email wasn't being sent to all users when SSO was enabled.
  • Fixed an issue in Document Management where selecting a previous version of a PDF file automatically downloaded it. Now, users can preview the PDF in a new browser tab. We've also updated the Version History information statement to "Select a version to open in preview." This solution is applied when Allow editing online via Microsoft Office is enabled or disabled.
  • Resolved an issue where users with a high volume of fields that exceeds expected thresholds were unable to search for objects.
