What’s new in Active Roles 8.0 LTS

This section provides a summary of the new features included in Active Roles. For detailed information about new features, see the latest Active Roles What’s New Guide.

Major new features in Active Roles Version 7.5:

  • Support for Microsoft Modern Authentication in the Active Roles Synchronization Service. Active Roles version 7.5 adds support for Modern Authentication when configuring the O365 Connector or the Azure BackSync operation of the Active Roles Synchronization Service, superseding the former Azure Admin user name and password-based authentication.

    NOTE: Consider the following when using this feature:

    • The SharePoint Online and Microsoft Skype for Business Online services are deprecated and no longer supported by the O365 Connector.

    • After creating a new client secret in the Azure Admin Portal, it may take up to 15 minutes until the client secret is synchronized and can be queried by the Active Roles Synchronization Service when creating the new O365 Connector.

Major new features in Active Roles Version 7.4.4:

  • Support for cloud-only users and cloud-only contacts.
  • Support for Microsoft SQL Server 2019.

Major new features in Active Roles Version 7.4.3:

  • Support for multiple Azure tenants.
  • Support for Modern Authentication.

    NOTE: Modern authentication for exchange online properties is included as a preview feature in this release. The feature is tested and included in the product as a supplement to Basic authentication. One Identity reserves the right to provide limited support to this feature.

Major new features in Active Roles Version 7.4.1:

  • Additional Hybrid Directory features:

    • Support for Office 365 Group CRUD activities.
    • Support for Office 365 roles and reporting for Office 365 users.
    • Support for Exchange Online Mailbox Properties for Office 365 users in Federated and Synchronized environment.
  • Support for provisioning objects in SaaS products.
  • Separate configuration and management history databases during installation or in-place upgrade, confirming to Microsoft standards and best practices for replication.

  • Bulk attribute operations for multiple users.

  • Log in to MMC interface through 2FA authentication.
  • Support for remote mailbox creation and modification.

    NOTE: The ‘Remote mailbox migration (RemoteMailbox.ps1)’ script has been provided as a sample script only, to illustrate the steps required, and should not be used as-is in a production environment without modification and enhancement. The use of security credentials within a script in clear text should never be considered appropriate or secure. In testing this script, care and consideration should be given to the authentication and use of credentials, and clear text credentials should not be left in the script once testing is complete.
