chaney08 166.1 51 * The new [[OIDC client>>doc:Collabs.pauls-test-collab.Documentation IAM.FAQ.OIDC Clients explained.WebHome]] manager app is deployed to production ([[Found here>>https://wiki.ebrains.eu/bin/view/OIDC/]]). This app is for EBRAINS service developers and provides a UI where previously only an API was available. Its functionality includes:
hbpadmin 157.1 52 ** Create new OIDC clients via the new UI
53 ** Find a full list of your existing OIDC clients
54 ** Easily edit and update any OIDC clients you have
messines 159.1 55 ** NOTE: The client list does not show clients that you are a maintainer of, however, you can access the OIDC Client manager of a client by entering the clientId into the URL
hbpadmin 157.1 56 * Add the possibility for OIDC client maintainers to add the service account related to the OIDC client to a [[collab's Team>>doc:Collabs.the-collaboratory.Documentation IAM.FAQ.Adding a service account to a Collab Team or a Group.WebHome]]
57 * Certain special characters were causing issues when put into a collab name, you can no longer use these special characters in a name.
58 * New field "has_bucket" was added to the API response describing collab. This allows users to quickly and easily see if a collab has a Bucket associated with it as a bucket is optional in a collab.
chaney08 165.1 59 * When using the collab search page, you can now include filters in the URL. E.g [[https:~~/~~/wiki.ebrains.eu/bin/view/Collabs/#favorite=true>>https://wiki.ebrains.eu/bin/view/Collabs/#favorite=true]] will have the favourite filter selected by default when visiting the link

chaney08 3.1 553 === Collaboratory 1 maintenance **(Released)** ===
chaney08 1.1 554
555 Collaboratory 1 services will be down from 18:00 CET [[(my timezone)>>url:https://everytimezone.com/s/4a9daa55]] Thursday Jan 7 for maintenance. The services are being re-hosted from the EPFL/BBP infrastructure to the Fenix infrastructure. The OIDC authentication service will be reactivated first (within 30 minutes); all other services will follow in the evening. Once the Collaboratory 1 services are back online, you may find that files added to the storage within the last days do not initially appear. This will be remedied overnight as we synchronize the storage. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
556
557 As a reminder the Collaboratory 1 services are deprecated and will be shut down in September 2021.
558
559 If you encounter issues with Collaboratory 1 after Friday 12:00 CET, please contact [[https:~~/~~/ebrains.eu/support>>url:https://ebrains.eu/support]]
560
561 The re-hosting was completed on Thursday evening. Some services relying on the Collaboratory 1 may need to be restarted to take into account the new DNS entries. Please notify [[support>>url:https://ebrains.eu/support]] of any issues you identify.
