BLUF of release

  • Made significant updates to enhance customer experience

Bug Fixes and Additional Changes

  • Added more information, about how access is granted to images, to the "image access" section of the onboarding page
  • The "help" link in the VAT header now directs you to the correct documentation URL, https://docs-ironbank.dso.mil
  • Added support for running POPs pipelines on tags on our findings ingest endpoint
  • Added initial frontend design improvements to bring VAT closer in look and feel to IBFE, more of that to come later
  • Removed some API usage tracking on healthcheck endpoints to improve backend performance and reduce database load
  • Fixed a bad database migration in the previous release which was causing 500 errors
  • Added more validation in the image findings page to make sure verifiers provide a justification if they change the designator to something other than "True Positive". This validation was previously only applied to justifiers.
  • Quick fix for 503 issues the IBFE team was seeing on their end
  • Made some changes to prepare several undocumented metrics endpoints for future release
  • Made some security updates to the application as part of the certificate-to-field process
