Today we released Jamf Connect 2.11.0 for general availability; this release includes the below details.
Key Feature Content
Azure default URLs added for changing and resetting passwords: If Azure is your IdP, you longer need to add a URL to your configuration that opens when end users select Change password or Reset password in the Jamf Connect menu bar app. Instead:
- For password changes which require a user to know their current password, Jamf Connect now defaults to opening URL My Account where the end user may change their password.
- For password resets where a user does not know their current password, Jamf Connect now defaults to opening the URL https://passwordreset.microsoftonline.com/ where the end user may reset their password.
- Note: If Okta is your IdP, this functionality already exists and directs end users to Okta URLs.
