grokability/snipe-it v8.6.1

on GitHub

This is a re-tag because we suspect one of the merges for multiple companies got mushed up, so the feature list will be the same as the v8.6.0 release. We repeated the feature list here since a lot of folks (understandably) don't watch the releases that closely and we didn't want them to miss the good stuff!

Wow wow wow. Wow.

We know it was just two weeks ago from our last mid-release, but this one was just too juicy to sit on. The changelog looks small, but it addresses some of our most sought-after features. Here's the highlight reel:

Users can now have more than one company

Yep. If you have FMCS (Full Multiple Company Support) enabled and need to control access via companies, this was previously potentially a problem. You might have a user who you don't want to promote to superuser (the only permission that bypasses FMCS constraints, but also has a LOT of access to stuff you might not want them to have), but they needed to manage items across several companies, and we couldn't support that in the past. Now we do.

Bulk license seat checkin via GUI

Bulk checkin assets via GUI

SCIM

We've ironed out a bunch of provider-specific SCIM issues that came from us adding groups, locations, manager, and company, but we are still hearing small murmurs about Okta SCIM integration, so if you're having trouble, do let us know.

Also, the new multiple-companies-for-users isn't supported by SCIM (yet?), so we suggest waiting on mapping groups if you have a situation where users might belong to multiple companies. (That mapping gets squirrely with different providers - we're working through issues as quickly as we can.)

Reddit? Somehow?

So there was an unofficial (but blessed by us) subreddit for Snipe-IT. The creator of the sub asked for a mod to take it over, and we applied and - oh no - we were approved, because we needed one more place to keep track of bugs and requests. Anyway, if Reddit is your jam, you can find us here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Snipe_IT/ - Don't be super-shocked if we direct you back to GH if your ask is a bug or a feature request though.

Documentation

This is our second release in a month, and a lot has changed. We're working as quickly as we can to update the docs with new endpoints, new screenshots, all the new features, etc. We appreciate your patience. We're pretty proud of the work that's gone into our docs, but that also means every release means a bunch of places that need updates. We're working on it as fast as we can, but if there's something that isn't documented or you have a question about in the meantime, our GH Discussions or Discord are a great place to start,

Security

There are (as always) security improvements, so folks are encouraged to upgrade, even if none of the stuff we're excited about is stuff you're excited about.

Mobile Update

We're slated to release the official Snipe-IT mobile app this week! And of course it will be open source. It will be a beta release, so be kind - a lot of work has gone into this over the past year, and we're pretty proud of what we've got (but we also know that this is the beginning, not the end, of the task.)

API pagination

If you use our API, we've simplified the pagination parts. Before, if you were building an integration, you'd have to do a bunch of math (booo) to figure out what the limit and offset were. We've made this a lot simpler for you, so you can now pass page=1, page=2, and we'll sort it out for you. You can still use the old offset/limit parameters, so nothing needs to change on your end if you've already got something that works, but new integrations should be a bit easier now.
