We're excited to introduce support for SAML-based authentication, enabling Single Sign-On (SSO) integration for easier and more secure access to Kitsu. 🔒✨
CleanShot 2024-09-17 at 7 
With this update, users can now log in to Kitsu using their existing SSO provider, such as Okta, in just one click! 👆🔐 Here’s how it works:
  • 🔗 Single Sign-On Integration: Kitsu can now be configured to accept your organization’s SSO, streamlining the login process.
  • 🧑‍💼 Manage your Kitsu users directly from your central SSO provider, allowing for streamlined user provisioning and removal.
  • 🛡️ Improved Security: Simplify tracking of login activity across your organization.
⚙️ Admins will need to configure Kitsu on the server side to accept the SSO connection after setting up their provider.

dayoff_schedule3
Schedules are handy to manage your artist tasks. But a vital notion was missing: your artist's day-offs. That's why we added this information everywhere it serves.
When your artists fill their day-offs in their workspace, you can see them in your timesheets and your schedules. It will be easier for you to manage your team's workload.
team
Setting a team in Kitsu was a bit tedious because you had to type the members' names one by one. Now, you can still type the employee's name, but you can also import a team from another project or from a department. We also added a list widget to select artists from available people.
chat
Recording informal discussions about an element of your production is useful for understanding the rationale behind some choices. Especially for your main assets. Unfortunately these brainstorming can't happen in the task comments. Otherwise it would clutter them and make things fuzzy.
That's why we added the capability to have a chat room for each entity of your production. You can now run long discussions around an element right from Kitsu. It's easier to collect information and keep track of your thoughts.
bots
Setting bots to deal with Kitsu data requires writing scripts that log in as users to perform actions. It was practical but it could lead to unclear situations.
From now on, you can add bot users who will use a token to connect to the API and will be able to perform operations on it independently. Plugin your tools to Kitsu is now simpler than ever!
