In the Location Hierarchy, the Location Info option is now moved from the More Actions menu. A new tab, Location Info, is now available to add or view the location information, in the window that appears when you click a location. Also, a new field, Zip/Postal Code, is now available in the Location Information window to specify the zip/postal code of the location. If location info fields are inherited from the parent location, then fields are shown in orange color.

For Cisco Wireless Controller, Cisco Spaces now enables you to group access points with different prefixes under a single network. After importing the networks to the location hierarchy, click the network to add the APs of multiple prefixes. In the location hierarchy, when you click a network location, a new Access Points Prefix Used option will now be available in the Location Info tab to add APs of multiple prefixes to that network. After adding the prefix, the APs under the unconfigured network with the specified prefix will be moved under this network. The Access Points Prefix Used option will be available only for network locations. However, the Access Points Prefix Used option will not be available for the Unconfigured network.

Cisco Spaces now enables you to select multiple locations for activities such as Creating Portals, Creating Rules, Importing Network for Cisco Meraki Camera, and so on. When you select a location, the check box corresponding to its parent locations get highlighted in blue and the selected location is expanded to display its child locations. You can then select multiple child locations. Previously, if you have selected a location, you had to unselect it for selecting its child location. This enhancement is applicable to the location selection option in the following features:

In the Engagement Rule, the provision to send notifications through Apps and BLE are removed. In the Create Engagement Rule window, in the Actions area, the following options that were available for Consumer have been removed:

• Via Push

• Via BLE

The Engagements and Location Personas rules are now enhanced to filter the visits that are away for a particular duration. For example, you can define a rule to filter the visits that are away for 10 minutes. In the Create New Rule window, the Exiting Location option that was available for When a user is on WiFi and is now replaced with the Away from the Location option. When you select the Away from the Location option, a For drop-down list will appear to specify the time the visitor needs to be away to get filtered for the rule. The time will be specified in minutes.

Even if a visitor is physically present in the location, but gets disconnected from the Wi-Fi for the minutes specified in the For drop-down list, the visitor will be considered for the rule.

If you are editing an existing Engagements or Location Personas rules with Exiting Location configured, the Choose User Activity drop-down list will appear without any selection. You must choose the required option from the Choose User Activity drop-down list to save the rule successfully.

In the Cisco Spaces dashboard, in Digitization Stats, the Square Foot value now represents the Total Area configured for network locations in the Location Info option in the Location Hierarchy. Previously, the Square Foot value was calculated based on number of APs configured for locations. However, if total area is not configured for network locations in the Location Hierarchy, then the Square Foot value will be displayed based on APs as earlier.

Cisco Spaces Partner dashboard now supports Single Sign-On (SSO). If you want to enable SSO for your Partner dashboard account, contact the Cisco Spaces support team .

To support SSO login for Cisco Spaces, the login screen for Cisco Spaces Partner dashboard is renovated. When you click the Login button, only the Email field will appear in the Login window along with a Continue button. If the user is having a Partner account and is already logged into the SSO-enabled domain, then the user will be directly taken to the the Select Partner window after clicking the Continue button. If the user has not logged into the domain, then the user will be redirected to the IDP page for login authentication, and user can login by specifying the SSO credentials.

For Cloud Apps, the Cisco Spaces dashboard is now enhanced to make the OAuth configuration more generic, and now supports to specify OAuth URLs defined by customers. In the App Title window, the OAuth Base URL field is now replaced with three new OAuth URL fields to specify the login, access token, and partner app info URLs separately. Previously, the login, access token, and partner app info URLs were generated internally based on this base URL. For existing apps, the three URL fields will be filled automatically based on the base OAuth URL.

If the OAuth check box is selected, the three OAuth URL fields are mandatory.
