Version 17.2.0 GA

User group management and room access control APIs
A new set of APIs lets you create, delete, and update groups, and assign the groups to rooms. Only users who belong to a group that is assigned to a room can then access that room.
For example, let’s say you create a group called the “Marketing Group” and that you have a room called the “Marketing Roadmap” room. You can assign the Marketing Group to the “Marketing Roadmap” room. By doing so, everyone who is part of the Marketing Group will be able to join conferences in the “Marketing Roadmap” room, but anyone who is not part of the Marketing Group will be denied access to that room.
We’ve synced this up with SAML; therefore, if you have groups configured with your third-party identity provider, we can authenticate those users through SAML and thereby provide them with access to the proper rooms.

VidyoPortal and VidyoRouter version 17.2.0 - resolved issues
Key	Summary
VPTL-8020	After an upgrade on a portal that is not multi-tenant, a new system license can now be applied without receiving the erroneous error message “License you are trying to upload is not valid for a multi-tenant system.”
VPTL-7956	Tomcat has been updated to optimize health check.
VPTL-7955	Apache server performance has been improved.
VPTL-7947	Room table queries no longer take three or more seconds to complete when the system is in an extremely busy state (such as during a sustained load test).
VPTL-7942	A UNIQUE_ID module, which will be used for correlating requests, has been added to the Apache access log and the Tomcat access log.
VPTL-7933	The font files have been replaced with optimized smaller font sizes and the mime-types have been updated to set the proper content-type headers.
VPTL-7908	Exporting and importing a portal database now preserves the SAML JKS file; therefore, the previously configured tenants for SAML are recognized.
VPTL-7901	Customized logos can now be successfully uploaded, viewed, and removed on the Super and Admin portals.
VPTL-7896	When creating a user with an email address that contains the “@” symbol, such as j.doe@company.global, the “not a valid email address” error no longer appears and the user is successfully created.
