Outage Details

Action Required for SchoolDude clients using ConnectAuthenticate SSO with WSFed Providers: A public key certificate for SchoolDude services that has been renewed and will need to be updated in your AD FS server’s relying party for SchoolDude/ConnectAuthenticate. Detailed instructions for updating the certificate are provided at https://community.brightlysoftware.com/s/article/SchoolDude-ConnectAuthenticate-SSO-Certificate-Renewal-for-WSFed-providers If you reconfigure the relying party with SAML 2.0, it does not require future certificate exchanges that may interrupt connectivity when certificates expire (yours or ours). We offer configurations with Google, Azure, and other SAML based Identity Providers. If your relying party is not migrated to SAML 2.0, this certificate update process will need to take place again next year when the certificate is updated again. If you would like to migrate to a SAML 2.0 relying party, please see instructions at https://community.brightlysoftware.com/s/article/SSO-AD-FS-Moving-from-WS-Fed-to-SAML-2-0-Relying-Party-CTAU You can also contact the Technology support team directly at support@brightlysoftware.com to schedule a working session for help with migration to SAML 2.0.
