Labs Features

Labs features are giving you a sneak preview of new features coming in future releases of Identity Federation for AWS.

Please note that Labs features represent work-in-progress and are not officially supported by Utoolity. They may be incomplete, or may change before being incorporated into the product (some Labs features may never be incorporated into the product).

That being said, Labs features aim to allows us to gather feedback on "work-in-progress" features to help us improve them - please get in touch for any issues, questions or suggestions you might have.

Advanced group selection widget

This implements UAA-89 - Getting issue details... STATUS to address usability issues with a large number of groups - please get in touch for any issues, questions or suggestions you might have with this feature.

Enabling this replaces the standard HTML multi selection widget with a JavaScript solution:
- click into the selection box to search for groups
- if there are up to 100 groups, they show up immediately
- if there are more than 100 groups, you need to type at least one character to make all matching groups appear
  - depending on the number of groups and naming scheme, frequently used characters like 'e' might still yield slightly sluggish behavior (depends on browser and system performance etc.), see below in case
- you can type more characters to filter down the search result - typing quickly should circumvent sluggishness with a very large number of groups, if any
- all changes persist on save of the connector only
this feature requires Bamboo >= 5.6 or JIRA >= 6.2

Support for the AWS GovCloud (US) Region (experimental)

The AWS GovCloud (US) Region is an API compatible, but otherwise isolated AWS Region designed to allow US government agencies and customers to move sensitive workloads into the cloud by addressing their specific regulatory and compliance requirements).

The AWS GovCloud (US) Region is an opt-in Labs Feature and not supported yet:

The us-gov-west-1 region requires dedicated credentials, see How do Government agencies, contractors and customers access the AWS GovCloud (US) Region?: "Customers cannot sign up for AWS GovCloud (US) through the traditional, online AWS sign up process. AWS must engage with the customer directly to sign an agreement specific to the AWS GovCloud (US) Region. [...]"
Due to being a non US company, we are not currently in the position to test this add-on with the AWS GovCloud (US) Region directly. However, the API is compatible in general and we have done our best to address the documented differences - please get in touch if things do not work as intended, we are very interested to collaborate on the necessary adjustments.
