Corrections

  • Data Management
    • Import
      • O365
        • Fixed issue with O365 importing where records without username or ip could stop the import process from properly enhancing the records and make them readable in Cyfin. These records without credentials are now assigned the username “nocred”.
  • Reporting
    • Reports
      • Fixed App/Site filter in report to account for possible & in the name of the App/Site.
