KnowledgeLake Release Announcement for Fall, 2022

Learn what’s new in the KnowledgeLake Fall 2022 Update.

Refine Access Control with Process-Based Permissions

With this update, you are now able to control which processes a user or group can work with. This means users can be empowered to self-service their own batches in the Monitor app without giving them unrestricted access to all batches. This also makes it easier to have multiple departments or business units using the same KnowledgeLake environment without the worry of users accessing batches and information they should not.

Permissions can now be set when saving a process. A user will only be able to see and access batches in the Monitor or API for processes to which they have been granted permission. If this is left blank for a process then all users have access like they do today.

Okta is Now a Supported User Catalog

We are excited to announce that you can now use Okta as your identity management system for KnowledgeLake. Okta is an absolute market leader in identity management with over 23% market share. Users logging in to KnowledgeLake can log in using the Okta experience with which they are already familiar. This addition allows organizations to choose if they would like their user catalog to be Local to KnowledgeLake, connected to Azure AD or connected to Okta.

Edit Document Properties Without Leaving Search

Users can now edit document properties without needing leave their search results. Our new tools make it easy to update the properties of a single document, or bulk edit many documents at once.

In the search results you can now turn on a View or Edit property panel which slides in next to the results. To perform bulk edit, multiple documents of the same type need to be selected which enables the Bulk Edit action to be available. All index and validation behaviors are run for either type of edit.

Other Notable Updates

• Insert Into Data Source Now Supports Oracle – You can now select Oracle sources in the Insert Into Data Source activity.
• Receive an Alert if a Gateway is Offline – In addition to receiving emails for batches in error or tasks assigned, you can now get email alerts if your gateway service goes down.
• Modern Authentication Added for Exchange Email Import – We are expanding the support for modern authentication to the email importer. This provides a more secure way to ingest emails into KnowledgeLake.
• Expanded Reporting Events for Tasks – We have improved the events written around Tasks which will allow better reporting and transparency around how users are completing assigned work.
• Image Compression Options in Scan – Because one size does not fit all, we've expanded image compression options to the Scan app. For a scan profile, you can now choose the type and level of compression applied to imported files. This allows you to have better control over file size vs. image quality.
• File Size Threshold in Scan – You can now set a maximum document file size for a scan profile in the Scan app. This restricts users from uploading documents that are too large, providing them with immediate feedback so they can take necessary actions to shrink the document.
• Grayscale as a New Color Format Option – In addition to black & white or color, you can now choose grayscale as the target color format when converting documents to multi-page TIFFs.
• Updates to Index Behaviors – You can now opt to only run validation behaviors when a batch is processed by the Index Your Documents step. This allows you to validate property values without unintentionally having them changed by indexing behaviors like automatic indexing.
