To further enhance Happeo’s security and simplify our codebase, we are changing the OAuth client ID used for the Google login. To ensure a smooth transition, some Happeo customers will need to take action.
You only need to take action if you match the following criteria:
AND
Any customer who has configured and applied a custom login page will not be affected. Read more below to see if this applies to you, and please forward this to your Google Workspace Admin in case it does. Please take action before 12 February 2024.
We are implementing the change in order to improve the security posture of our login flow, as a part of our continuous security enhancement practice. After the update, we will no longer store security tokens in our database, which is a more secure practice. This method is already used by customers who have configured and applied a custom login page. Although the current set-up used by the rest of our customers hasn’t caused any security issues, moving to the new login flow is a natural step towards modern SaaS security.
The update will also simplify our codebase. This will enable us to both build new features and fix bugs faster due to the reduced complexity.
In this case you don’t need to take action and nothing will change, even in the background.
Note that you still need to take action if you access Happeo with your own custom domain but have not configured and applied your own login page.
In this case, you need to:
Follow the steps below or watch the video walkthrough.
Please follow the steps below, otherwise, your users may see an admin_policy_enforced error when trying to log into Happeo. You can also watch a video walkthrough here.
