Descope changelog

To paraphrase a quote from Dory the forgetful fish: “Just keep shipping”. Here are some of the latest product updates from Descope:

?? Seamless SSO migration

Migrating an SSO implementation from one provider to another is usually a laborious process for your engineering teams and your customers’ tenant admins. With SSO migration, Descope can now consume and migrate customers’ current SSO setups to provide even faster time to value for your customer SSO projects.

?? Seamless pre and post migration login experience

?? Pre-configured IdPs

?? Zero extra effort from tenant admins

Learn more in our docs.

?? Customizable user admin widgets

Several customers use Descope Widgets to delegate admin to their end users. With our new widget editor, customers can now customize both the layout and functionality of these widgets to fit their use case without spending extra dev time.

?? Drag & drop screen editor

?? Display or hide user actions

?? Add and edit custom user attributes

?? Make fields mandatory or read-only?

?? Align widget styles with your brand

And a whole lot more! Explore our widget editor and let us know what you think.
