7.2.3-RELEASE.17
Release Date: 24th May 2019
Evolphin Zoom 7.2.3-RELEASE.17 is a full release consisting of Windows servers, and Windows and Mac clients.
New Features
- This Zoom release features integration with the OpenID Connect provider, Ping Identity that lets Zoom users use global Single Sign-On. Check here to know how to integrate it with Zoom.
- Hot Folders will not store any login credentials now. These will instead use the session of the logged-in user, or if none is available then prompt for login.
Usability Enhancements
- Audit logging is enhanced for many commands and entries are now more descriptive.
- After setting up PingID and using PingRealm in Zoom, all unattended Hot Folders from your previous Zoom setup will be disabled.
Major Pending Issues
- In the Web Client, public collection-sharing using a web link and private sharing to external users is not available.
- Web Asset Browser on a Mac machine does not display text correctly.
- Users are unable to change the thumbnail for any asset in the Web Asset Browser.
- If a user clicks See More… while browsing the list of inactive files on the Asset Browser homepage, Zoom shows a null pointer exception.
- Preview Server logs show authentication failed messages sporadically but these do not affect Zoom’s operations.
- VCS indexes in Curator are taking longer to finish indexing.
- In the Asset Browser, if a user single signs-in using one browser and then tries to log into the Web Management Console on a different machine or browser (other than the browser used for initial single sign-in), this user is automatically logged out from the Visual Asset Browser.
- Auto checkout fails on a Windows Zoom Client if it tries to check-out a file with a long name that is not supported in Windows.
Minor Pending Issues
- In the Asset Browser, the single sign-on login window does not disappear when a globally signed out user clicks Cancel on that login prompt.
- After a user clicks on the button to single sign-on from within a Zoom application, the global login credentials are captured and validated in the default web browser, but the Zoom application still displays the single sign-on connect button instead of showing the signing-in progress.
- Sometimes, Zoom session does not open in a Zoom application even after Ping session was successfully created after the user has single signed-in.
- While single signing-in from the Web Asset Browser in the Safari browser on a Mac machine, the tab used to log-in is not automatically closed after single sign-on is successful.
- Assets imported via the Hot Folder are saved with an empty comment instead of the default comment for any hot folder import.
Adobe Issues
- While using Zoom Adobe plugin with Adobe apps, dragging and dropping an asset from the Asset Browser to an Adobe app does not link the asset in the current project/document inside that Adobe app. As a workaround, use Adobe AIR 27 that allows dragging and dropping to work in Zoom.
