Release Notes: Janurary 2026
Over the month, the YeshID team has focused on delivering safer automation, expanding our integration ecosystem, and streamlining access reviews. From a new Audit Admin role to smarter HRIS handling and AI-assisted summaries, here is a consolidated look at the recent updates.
Highlights
Smarter, Safer Automation
- Centralized Trigger Management: We launched a dedicated Triggers page to make finding, adding, and editing automation triggers easier.
- Staged by Default: New triggers now stage workflows by default (applying no changes automatically), allowing you to safely test automation logic before enabling live actions.
- Enhanced HRIS Syncing:
- Change Requests: Directory or HRIS syncs now automatically launch change request workflows when users are modified, creating individual workflows per user to avoid duplicates.
- "Disappearing" User Handling: Offboarding automation is now more robust. If an HRIS simply stops sending a user record (rather than marking them terminated), YeshID can now set an end date to trigger offboarding workflows reliably.
- Script Security: You can now store reusable script settings with script-level properties, including encrypted values masked in the UI, to avoid hardcoding secrets in code-based actions.
Expanded Integrations
We have significantly expanded our catalog and improved how integrations are managed:
- New 1-click Integrations: Connect and manage Calendly, BambooHR, Remote.com, Zendesk, Atlassian (Beta), OpenAI, Chili Piper, and Ashby (Beta).
- Safer Setup & Disconnect: Integration actions cannot be enabled until fully configured and saved. Disconnecting an integration now performs a clean cleanup of provisioning settings and authorization, updating the UI status immediately.
- Atlassian Actions: The Atlassian integration now includes support for "Activate User" actions.
Streamlined Audits & Governance
- New Audit Admin Role: A specialized role allows audit owners to start, run, and complete access reviews without requiring full application admin privileges.
- Improved Workflow Visibility:
- The workflows list now clearly indicates what triggered each run (e.g., specific sync, manual trigger) for better troubleshooting.
- New filtering options allow you to sort by target person, view completed tasks, and bulk-select workflows to delete test runs or start staged items.
- AI-Assisted Administration: The AI chat experience has been redesigned with richer, evidence-linked details. An optional AI-generated weekly admin summary email now provides deep links into organizational health.
Improvements
- Policy Alerts via Teams: Policy alerts can now notify Microsoft Teams. Teams access requests have also been upgraded to support role selection, time-based access, and custom fields.
- Data Visibility: Google Workspace group imports now include nested group members. Additionally, CSV exports across the platform now match the specific filters and sorting you are viewing on screen.
- User & Account Management:
- Drift Analysis: Access drift views now support deep links into specific application and user contexts.
- Manual Imports: The "Import Users" dialog now supports drag-and-drop for CSVs or screenshots with clearer validation.
- App Accounts: You can now edit account names and external IDs for non-integrated applications directly in the UI.
- RBAC Safety: Enabling or disabling RBAC policies no longer risks removing the policy’s principals or app assignments unexpectedly.
Fixes
- Connector Reliability:
- Microsoft: Improved reliability during onboarding by retrying token exchanges if consent hasn’t propagated. Microsoft sign-in now correctly loads user roles (e.g., Auditors see the correct menus immediately).
- Salesforce: SCIM provisioning now allows configuring a profile ID for user creation and uses the correct format for deactivation requests.
- Google: Connections are more stable via improved refresh token handling.
- Workflow Logic:
- Fixed issues where catalog integrations (including Drata) stopped early due to pagination errors.
- Addressed a bug where "remove user" tasks appeared successful even if the removal failed.
- Workflow runs now reconcile missed completions and continue updating even if a single task fails.
- Data Integrity: CSV and screenshot imports now handle commas in numbers and missing IDs more gracefully, with safeguards to prevent accidental mass deactivations during incomplete mappings.
Availability
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Currently in Beta.
- New Integrations: Atlassian and Ashby integrations are currently in Beta.
- AI Features: AI Chat is available on all plans except Free.
