Releases 2020



December 23rd 2020

Bug fix release that fixes some problems when showing pre-assigned reviewers (reviewers assigned by using the Builder as shown below) on the Workflow Report.

December 16th 2020

We are introducing some security improvements to the current approvals configuration and different setting options.

Anyone can approve (no restrictions)

From now on, approvals with the configuration Anyone can approve (no restrictions) won't be assignable anymore.

The workflow state dialog will NOT ALLOW reviewers assignation

Users can be assigned through the (workflow popup) UI

This option allows manual assignation of reviewers by using the workflow state dialog. This will remain working same as now. → So It will still be possible to leave the approval with no assignees or assign specific reviewers

Workflow state dialog will ALLOW the assignment of reviewers, but you can add users in the approval editor to allow PRE_ASSIGNMENT of reviewers.

  • a user with VIEW & EDIT permissions over the content will view enabled approve/reject buttons

  •  if a user has been assigned but the current logged-in user is NOT ASSIGNED to the approval the approve/reject buttons are disabled

Set all reviewers that have to approve

From now on, approvals with this configuration won't be assignable anymore. It'll still be mandatory to pre-assign the set of reviewers to the approval:

Workflow state dialog will NOT ALLOW the assignment of reviewers. A user accessing the content who is not assigned as a reviewer will see the approve/reject buttons disabled (greyed out).
