March 21st, 2025 | Changelog
This release added new Inbox options for allowing Client Sharing users to log in to CloudCannon from a notification email.
It also addressed several issues, including those affecting MFA permissions, Organization-level Flag permissions, and form reCAPTCHA.
Features & Improvements
- Added the Use Client Sharing to view attached files option for existing Inboxes and the File attachment settings option for existing Inboxes.
- Previously, Client Sharing users could not view form submissions in CloudCannon by following the link from the form submission notification email, as CloudCannon would require them to log in with a CloudCannon account.
- Now, when you create a new Inbox target, you can enable the Use Client Sharing to view attached files option. CloudCannon will ensure all form submission notification emails use a link to the Client Login Page.
- Additionally, you can toggle this option for existing Inbox targets using the File attachment settings option in the Inbox Context menu.
Fixes
- Fixed an issue where users with the
org:settings:details:write permission could edit the Multi-Factor Authentication settings for an Organization. You must be a member of the Owners Permission Group to edit these settings.
- Fixed an issue where only members of the Owners Permission Group could see the Organization-level Flags settings. Users with the
org:settings:details:write permission should be able to edit these flags.
- Fixed an issue where, in some cases, reCAPTCHA validation would pass incorrectly. CloudCannon will now forward form submissions that fail reCAPTCHA validation to the Error section of your Inbox.
