Ally 1.59 | Release to production 15 April 2021
Ally for Web Access Control Microsoft Authentication
The Ally 1.52 release introduced Access Control for Ally for Websites, which allows your Ally for Websites administrator to delegate specific access to the Accessibility report with a Google Authentication option. This latest release adds Microsoft as an authentication option to allow users to login using their organizational email if they do not wish to use a Google address. The super administrator is still able to setup the domain groups and users as normal, however a new user can now choose which authentication mechanism best meets their needs.
As a reminder, access control is an optional feature as administrators are still able to login with the provided LTI Key and Secret. If you don't opt to use the Access Control feature, you may still login to the Accessibility report as you normally would.
