New Features

Role Based Access Control (RBAC)

Innomesh administrators now have the capability of managing user permissions for Innomesh Room Manager and Portal. This includes defining user “roles” to specify detailed access permissions to Innomesh Room Manager and Portal, and assigning users with roles to grant them access. Additionally, the introduction of SAML roles enables automatic authorisation into Innomesh Room Manager and Portal for users authenticated through Single Sign-On (SSO) that is federated to their organisation.

Administration page showing Users, User Groups, Roles, and SAML Roles tabs with a user list Role Based Access Control (RBAC) allows you to seamlessly manage access and permissions for both groups and individuals in one centralised location.

Access this feature from Innomesh Portal by selecting “Administration” from the dropdown menu when hovering over your name.

📝 Note

A dedicated article on Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is available in the RBAC Authorisation Guide.

Site Filter

A new concept of a “site” is now introduced, allowing categorisation of rooms based on physical location, such as campus or city. Users can now filter rooms by site in Innomesh Room Manager and Portal, with the ability to restrict user access to specific sites.

⚠️ Warning

Please note that “Vitals” and “Insights” dashboards do not support Site filtering at this time.
