Changelog #30

Role-based access control is here!

Permissions are now configurable for all create/update/delete actions in ION! Admins can update permissions per role, manage users per role, and bundle users into teams. We introduced Teams to ease the burden of managing permission for groups of people.

‍

Revamping Issues

We've taken advantage of the new Roles functionality to overhaul Issues. You can now configure custom dispositions and require approvals by role. Connect run steps to issues to record off-nominal work and block progress until the issue is resolved!

‍

Right click menus

Right click comes to ION! When viewing a run's dependency view, right click to quickly edit and re-arrange steps.
