🎯 Target audience

This document is intended for customers and partners who need to understand what’s new or improved in the AuroraOps Platform 5.2.0 release.


🚀 New features

1. New sign-in flow

Along with new graphics, the system sign-in page features a new flow that supports multiple authentication methods.

When an employee enters their user name, the system presents a screen appropriate to the configured authentication method:

  • DB or LDAP authentication: Password screen
  • LDAP/SSO with Trusted Login: WFO portal
  • SAML: IdP sign-in screen

2. Limit concurrent user sessions

You can now limit the number of concurrent sessions for each user. You can limit the number of IP addresses per user and/or the number of sessions a user can have per IP address. In mobile deployments, the service provider can set the user limits for each tenant.


3. New authentication configuration guide

To consolidate authentication information, a new Authentication Configuration Guide has been developed. This guide replaces the SAML, OpenID Connect, and Active Directory Validation Tool guides.


4. Support for multiple certificate authorities

The platform now supports multiple certificate authorities. It is no longer required to have the same root certificate authority certificates deployed on system servers.


5. Unified logging

This release unifies log retention and centralizes the management of logging levels across all sub‑systems. To support unified logging, the Recorded Sessions logger was updated to be consistent with other loggers.

This utility enables users to:

  • Download files and folders from one or more servers from the same navigation place.
  • Troubleshoot issues by listing common problematic use cases, and grouping all log and configuration files into a single view.
  • Change the log settings of a component across one or more servers at one time.
  • Update the latest version of this utility across all servers in a single click.

6. API rate limiting controls

Administrators can now configure tenant-level API rate limits from the AuroraOps Admin Console.

Administrators can now:

  • Set per-minute and burst limits
  • Monitor API throttling events
  • Export rate-limit logs for compliance reviews

7. SSO role mapping

AuroraOps now supports mapping SAML or OIDC attributes to AuroraOps user roles during login.

This includes:

  • Allows auto-provisioning of users into groups
  • Reduces manual onboarding steps
  • Supports Okta, Azure AD, and Ping Identity

🛠 Resolved issues

Issue ID Description Resolution
AO-1923 Workflow editor did not display step-level error messages during validation. Updated validation engine to surface full error messages in UI.
AO-2044 API key rotation logs displayed incorrect timestamps. Corrected timestamp serialization and applied timezone normalization.
AO-2157 Users with read-only permissions could see “Edit” on Job Schedules. Updated UI permission checks to properly hide edit actions.
AO-2199 High memory usage on the Notification Service during bulk event processing. Optimized memory allocation and added queue backpressure handling.

⚠️ Known issues

1. Delayed webhook delivery under high load

Under very high API traffic, webhook dispatch may experience a delay of up to 45 seconds.
Workaround: Enable auto-retry in the Notification Settings page.


2. Inaccurate CPU metric spikes on the Monitoring dashboard

Some tenants may see intermittent CPU spikes due to metrics sampling drift.
Status: Fix planned for version 5.2.1 (hotfix scheduled).


3. Incomplete auto-generated API documentation for custom connectors

Descriptions for custom connector schemas may generate without sample payloads.
Workaround: Refer to the Connector Developer Guide for sample schema definitions.


4. Saving a search twice produces an error

When saving from the Advanced Search dialog box, clicking the Save button twice can result in error notifications. The search has been saved and the notifications can be noted and ignored. Workaround: Save one search, log out and log back into the system, and save the next search.


5. Limitation on Scheduling screen when groups are created during user session

A user creates a group, configures a scheduling period for the group, and assigns it to a queue. The user navigates to the Scheduling screen, but is unable to edit any scheduling values or run any other actions for the newly created group. Workaround: Refresh the Scheduling screen. After refreshing the screen, the user privileges are updated and all the actions the user is entitled to are enabled.

🔧 Hotfixes
