NEW RELEASE // 2026

Introducing the new
Team Access & Authorization Suite

Total authority, simplified. Experience our new unified architecture for managing app access and user permissions.

Dear members of the Openstudio community,

Here we are again with another amazing improvement for your dashboard. Growth often brings a hidden cost: administrative complexity. As your organization expands, the simple act of granting a teammate access to a tool can become a source of friction. We realized that for OpenStudio to truly empower your scale, we needed to move beyond static settings. We needed a system that understands the context of every user.

Today, we are stepping towards a more intelligent and complete engine to manage the permissions of all the members of your organization. We’ve rebuilt our core logic from the ground up to ensure that authorization is no longer a bottleneck, but a transparent, automated flow.

Permissions for everything, in every possible way!

To provide total flexibility, there are different methods through which you can authorize a colleague to access our amazing applications, from manual authorizations, to group-based and inherited permissions.

1. Manual Permissions

Direct grants for specific needs. Assign permissions to users for precise moments in time with start and end dates.

2. Permission Packages

Create containers for multiple apps. Assign entire service bundles to departments like HR or Finance in one click.

3. App Profiles

Templated personas. Define specific roles like "Auditor" or "Manager" per application for standardized onboarding.

4. Inherited Rules

Automatic authority. Access is granted based on the user's role in the Org-Chart (e.g., all Area Managers access Accounting).

The permissions control center has been totally renovated, integrating new features and intelligent engines to do more, more easily.

Let's discover together some of the functionalities you can now access, all for free.

01. The New
Permissions Control Center

The heart of this update is a centralized workspace where you can oversee the entire digital perimeter of every available application. For every app, you now have a comprehensive Permission Catalog that lists every configurable option.

From here, you can view active and expired authorizations at a glance. We’ve also introduced Temporal Logic, allowing you to define precise start and end dates for every permission. When access sources overlap, the system intelligently renders the most relevant authority based on your global settings.

Authority Render Engine
// Rendering active permissions...
Manual: [Active]
Profile: [Active]
Validity: Auto-Sunset: 2026-12-31

Result: Authority Rendered Successfully.

02. Smart Application
Profiling

Standardize access with reusable persona templates.

Stop repeating the same manual tasks. With Application Profiles, you can define specific persona sets for each application – like Human resources operator, Financial controller, Auditor, or External Contributor. Assign these to users with custom validity dates, and let our Live-Sync Engine propagate any future updates across all assigned users instantly.

User Ledger

View a real-time list of every user assigned to a profile to ensure lean and accurate role distribution.

Role Mining

Our engine detects repetitive manual habits and suggests a Persona to automate your frequent permission clusters.

Impact Analysis

The system proactively calculates the ripple effects of every profile change: "This update affects 42 active operators."

03. The Team Authorizations Radar

A dedicated view for leaders to monitor their Unit's Pulse.

True security is about stewardship, not just auditing. We’ve introduced the Team Permissions Radar, a specialized dashboard for Department and Area Managers to oversee their direct reports. This empowers the people who know the workflow best to ensure their team members have access to the exact applications required for their missions and daily task.
