Federations
The Federations feature in the DX Cloud Cockpit, lets you seamlessly integrate external Identity Providers (IdPs) with the DX Cloud platform. This feature enhances authentication flexibility and streamlines user management through secure, standardized protocols.

Support for OpenID Connect (OIDC) and SAML Protocols: Federations enable integration with external IdPs using industry-standard OIDC or SAML protocols, ensuring secure and reliable authentication.
-
Trusted Relationships with Third-Party IdPs: Establish trusted connections with external identity systems, enabling single sign-on (SSO) and centralized user management.
-
Cockpit and Rancher Mappings: Configure mappings to align external IdP roles and permissions with DX Cloud Cockpit and Rancher resources for consistent access control.
-
User Attribute Mapping: Define mappings between external IdP user attributes and DX Cloud platform resources, allowing precise control over user data synchronization.
Benefits
-
Enhanced Security: Leverage trusted external IdPs to enforce robust authentication policies.
-
Streamlined Administration: Simplify user access management by integrating with existing identity systems.
-
Flexible Configuration: Customize mappings to align with your organization’s unique access and attribute requirements.

SSO client integration and improved environment management
We’re happy to introduce the SSO Clients section to the Cockpit. For DX Cloud deployments, configuring an SSO client is essential to connect your IDP to Magnolia. If your IDP uses SAML instead of OIDC, we need to bridge the gap by routing authentication through Keycloak. Proper client configuration ensures smooth and secure access across your environments.
See SSO clients for more details.
We have improved the experience for managing environments in the Cockpit. This includes:
-
Enhanced layout and usability
-
Full API integration for faster access
-
Display of all containers with detailed status information
-
Visualization of the deployed pod image
See Manage your environments for more details.
-
Start: Start your environment.
-
Stop: Destroys all instances down to
0replicas. -
Delete indexes: Delete the environment’s indexes.
-
All containers: Display a list of all containers associated with the environment.
-
See logs: Takes you directly to any applicable log information.

You must be on Helm 1.17.2 or later to avail of this feature.
See How to change the signature algorithm for publication tasks for more details.

Improved redirect import validation
We have improved our import validation in the Cockpit when you import redirect files. This ensures that only files that are correctly formatted are imported.
The import dialog notifies you if there are any issues with your import file such as incorrect .csv formatting or if the status code is not permitted.
For more, see Create redirects.
