Topicus KeyHub 22

Written by Emond Papegaaij | 10/11/2022

We are proud to announce Topicus KeyHub 22. This release brings back the option for a password reset. We've also added some e-mail notifications and added several new commands to the CLI. As usual, a number of assorted smaller changes and bug fixes are included.

 

Password reset

TKH-2213 TKH-2243 In Topicus KeyHub 18.2 we introduced our social password recovery. This allowed users to recover from a password loss without losing any access with a little help from two other users. In some cases however, this reliance on two other users can become a problem due to time constraints or availability. To prevent users from getting blocked, it is now possible to opt for a password reset. This will allow the user to regain access to Topicus KeyHub without help, but lose access to the vault.

 

E-mail notifications

TKH-2229 Users will now receive e-mail notifications on changes of group membership(s). This helps the user to detect mistakes and creates awareness of their membership(s).

Account provisioning via CLI

TKH-1290 A whole new set of commands was added to the provisioning command group of the CLI to activate or deactivate groups directly from the command line. With provisioning status, the status of the groups can be read.
