Enhancements

OKR properties selectors (Labels and Collaborators);
Settings in general;
Labels settings page;
Teams settings page
Additionally, there is an important change to the Manage teams permission that requires action from OKR app administrators.
Manage teams permission changes
Affected clients
Only clients using the following OKR permission schemes are affected by the change:
Global settings control
Global settings & editing control
Advanced setup
What has changed
Summary
We removed the Manage team advanced permission, which allowed all OKR admins to manage any team (which was not the case for OKR local admin specified in the OKR app settings), and added Manage all teams.
Action required
OKR admins on instances using Advanced setup in Permissions should review the permissions and assign Manage all teams permission to required groups. By default, only OKR Admin group has it.
We now allow any user to navigate to Settings > Teams, allowing Team Admins and Managers without OKR administrator or Manage teams permissions to access the Edit team menu.
Details:
| Before | Now |
|---|---|---|
Access to Settings > Teams | OKR Admins and users with Manage teams permission | All users |
Edit/Delete Teams |
|

Advanced Permission Manage teams | ||
Advanced Permission Manage all teams |

A similar improvement is planned for Owners and Teams pickers. Let us know if you are looking forward to it.
Settings improvements
The following changes and improvements have been introduced in app settings:
Settings header has been added to the list of settings on the left sidebar.
Unified naming and page structure for all the settings pages.
Search has been added to the Labels settings page.
