Release notes Topicus KeyHub 42

We're proud to present Topicus KeyHub 42, which includes improved account attribute management, a new version of the browser extension and completely redesigned pages for managing clients and applications. As always, we also included a great number of smaller improvements and fixes.

Important notices

TKH-3336 As announced in the previous release notes, with Topicus KeyHub 42 the database was upgraded to PostgreSQL version 17. If you are still running Topicus KeyHub 35 or earlier, you will not be able to upgrade to version 42 in one step. For assistance on how to upgrade your deployment, please contact us via your usual support channel.

TKH-3380 Changes have been made to the Applications - Create new applications permission for OAuth2 clients. In previous versions, this permission was global. A client with this permission could create applications for all groups.

Starting version 42 this permission is scoped to a specific group. A client can only create new applications administered by this specified group. Clients previously assigned the permission will have the scope set to their technical administrator group. This occurs during the database migration.

If the OAuth2 client expects to be able to create applications outside of their technical administrator group, new permissions must be assigned after the upgrade.

Browser extension
