ValQ
April 16, 2021

The latest release of ValQ comes with new features, fixes and performance enhancements for an improved user experience.  In this blog, we will have a run through of all of them in detail.

The main feature updates of ValQ’s latest release includes: 

  • The node limit has been lifted on all the plans. Now models can be built for unlimited nodes.   
  • Writeback Scenarios from Compare Scenarios screen 
  • Fetch More API update – Using the incremental updates mode. 
  • One of the most important upgrades in the version release of 2.0.4 is the Login with password method.  

              In addition to the Microsoft Sign-In method, users will now be able to sign-in to ValQ using username/password method. 

  The new flow comprises of the following steps:   

  1. Workspace Admin adds a member/user to a workspace by email.
  2. An invitation email with a link to reset their account with a new password (The link will be valid for 7 days)  
  3. User clicks on the link and set their account password  
  4. From ValQ visual when they click on sign-in, the link will redirect to the same Login page as today. But now they can use their username/password to sign in to ValQ.  
  5. The Login page also by defaults turns on Remember password so that the user is not required to type their username/password every time they log in to ValQ. 
  6. User can also log on to the ValQ member console using the same sign-in method.
