The FIN 5.1.1 release is considered a 'service pack' release. Service Packages typically contain minor bug fixes and feature enhancements

Notable Fixes & Enhancements

OpenID Connect SSO

Single sign-on using an external identity provider: Single sign-on (SSO) can be set up using OpenID Connect. This enables users to skip the standard FIN username and password and use an external identity provider (IdP).

Single sign-on using FIN: If multiple FIN instances are being used (and Edge2Cloud isn’t being used), a single FIN instance can manage users and provide a single sign-on (SSO) to all other instances of FIN. This uses OpenID Connect technology whereby FIN can act as both a server and a client.

1-for-1 Writes

We now have a feature that allows writes to be executed 1 for 1 for BACnet and Haystack.

FIN Cloud Backup

We have implemented a feature that allows users to back up a system remotely in the Cloud. There are two options:

Rolling: Edge2Cloud can hold three rolling backups. When a fourth backup is created, it overwrites the oldest backup.

Permanent: Edge2Cloud can hold five permanent backups. When a sixth backup is created, an error is thrown. A user must manually delete a permanent backup before creating a new one.
