Isora v1.7.0

October 9th, 2025

Frontend Release v1.7.0

What's New

Unit Assessments

  • Acknowledgment Workflow Visualization
    • View this workflow in Step 5 of the Assessment Creation wizard, or when you Publish an assessment and return to Launch it later in the Survey/Assessment Launch Options.
    • Use this screen to easily toggle the OU Head Acknowledgment requirement on or off.

UUID Copy & Search Enhancements

  • Added a Copy UUID control in the sidebar for quick copying.
  • Enhanced the Search Bar to support UUID lookups across multiple inventory entities:

    Applications, Assets, Users, Units, and Locations.

Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Fixed an issue where the “Launch Assessment” button was disabled for previously published Unit Assessments — you can now launch published assessments as needed.
  • Updated Assessment commands to replace the label “Survey” with “Assessment.”
  • Clarified the “Effective Date” label for cancelled assessments.

API Updates

/api/vendorproductdeployments

  • When creating a new contact in the Vendor Deployment wizard, the payload now includes the contact’s ID field, ensuring consistency with existing records.

Backend Release v1.7.0

What's New

Unit Assessment Notifications

  • Added a new “Survey Completed” notification for Assessment Managers to stay informed as assessments are finalized.

UUID Copy & Search Enhancements

  • Mirroring the Frontend update, you can now:
    • Use the Copy UUID sidebar control.
    • Search by UUID across Applications, Assets, Users, Units, and Locations.

Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Fixed an inconsistency with the “Require OU Head Final Acknowledgement” flag. It now always accepts a True/False value and defaults to True unless explicitly set to False in Launch Options.
  • Auditor Role Access: Auditors can now view Application Assessments and Reports for their assigned units.
  • Vendor Deployment Wizard: Fixed a bug that created duplicate contacts when selecting an existing one. You can now safely select or create vendor contacts without duplication.

API Updates

Active Exceptions Indicator

We’ve added a new active_exceptions field that provides quick visibility into any active exception requests for:

  • Assets
  • Third-Party Products
  • Applications

This field:

  • Returns a compact list of approved and active exceptions.
  • Returns an empty array when no active exceptions exist.

Endpoints Updated:

  • GET /api/apps and GET /api/apps/{id}
  • GET /api/vendorproducts and GET /api/vendorproducts/{id}
  • GET /api/hosts and GET /api/hosts/{id}
  • Example:
    {
      "id": string,
      "...": "...",
      "active_exceptions": [
        {
          "id": string,
          "requester": {
            "id": string,
            "username": string,

          "type_info": {

          },
          "expiration_date": string
        }
      ]
    }

/api/exceptionrequests

  • Added a new optional Description text field.
  • Example:
    {
      "id": string,
      "...": "...",
      "description": string  // optional user-provided field
    }

/api/surveys

  • Responses now include the assessment_type.id field.

      "...": "...",
      "assessment_type": {
    		  "id": string,
    			"name": string,
    			"target": int
       },
    }

API Documentation Enhancements

The API documentation now provides return data examples to help developers validate data types and payload structures more reliably.
