Release notes for the July, 26 2026 update¶
Update Version 4.1.202607250358
New Features¶
Added session management permissions for asset workflow approvers.¶
This update allows the application to automatically grant dedicated permissions to users who are designated as approvers for asset assigned workflows. Users designated as workflow approvers can now perform the following actions without requiring additional administrative permissions including the option to establish sessions or unlock secret fields:
- Access the web console with no permissions other than workflow approver.
- Search for, browse, and view assets associated with assigned workflows.
- View remote sessions associated with assigned workflows.
- Join or terminate active sessions associated with assigned workflows.
- Play back session recordings and review session events for completed sessions associated with assigned workflows.
The workflow approver role enables organizations to separate access governance from privileged access. Approvers can review requests, monitor active sessions, join or terminate sessions when necessary, and audit completed activities without receiving privileged access to the managed assets themselves.
This approach supports the principle of least privilege, strengthens segregation of duties, and helps organizations meet security and compliance requirements by ensuring that those responsible for approving and overseeing privileged access cannot use that access for administrative tasks.
