IT Portal's 4.6.27 Update - Integrations, Migration & Security Release

Release

Overview

This release covers versions 4.6.16 through 4.6.27 and is the largest update we've shipped in a single quarter. It builds directly on the AI and backend work from our 4.6.15 release with a wave of new integrations, true tenant migration and disaster-recovery tooling, SIEM-grade audit streaming, major VMware enhancements, and dozens of everyday workflow refinements — all while the .NET Core backend migration continues underneath.

Major Releases & Integrations

CloudRadial Integration — Connect IT Portal directly to CloudRadial and your managed companies, sites, contacts, devices, agreements, and configurations sync in automatically, on demand or every night. A built-in Demo mode lets you walk through the whole thing before connecting a live account. Read more →

Open API 3.0 — Our most complete API yet: bulk endpoints, full field round-tripping, and sub-entity support, so your automations and integrations read and write data without losing a thing. It's the engine behind PortalSync and our Hudu importer. Read the API 3.0 notes →

PortalSync — Keep a complete, always-current copy of your IT Portal tenant in a second location, cloud or on-premise. If the primary goes down, your team logs into the mirror with zero data loss — every object, credential, file, and custom field included. Discounted DR-tier pricing is available for existing customers. Read more →

Migrate from Hudu — A free Windows importer lands 1,700+ records (companies, sites, contacts, devices, passwords, KBs, and relationships) into a fresh IT Portal tenant in dependency-ordered phases, preserving custom fields and HTML notes. No spreadsheets, no re-keying. Read more →

Security & Compliance

SIEM Log Streaming — Stream authentication, access, admin, and access-denial events straight into Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Elastic, Wazuh, or QRadar. Your SIEM polls one secure REST endpoint and pulls a normalized JSON feed with cursor-based, no-skip paging, scoped audit-API keys, and event-to-control mapping built for CMMC and NIST 800-171. Read more →

Scoped API Keys — Issue least-privilege API credentials restricted to exactly the access they need, and every read of an API credential is now recorded in the Password Access log.

Duo Universal Prompt — Duo two-factor authentication has been upgraded to the modern Universal Prompt, with full mobile support.

Anonymous File Upload Toggle — Administrators can now turn public, anonymous uploads on share links on or off, giving you tighter control over inbound files.

CSV/TSV Export Hardening — Password and field values in CSV/TSV exports are now sanitized against spreadsheet formula injection, protecting anyone who opens an exported file.

VMware Enhancements

Standalone ESXi Support — The VMware agent now auto-detects whether it's talking to vCenter or a standalone ESXi host and collects accordingly, so you can document VMs in branch offices and labs that don't run vCenter. Read more →

vSphere-Style Dashboards & Change History — VMware inventory now displays in vSphere-style dashboards with per-datastore CPU, memory, and storage bars, 30/90/365-day storage trend charts, and a humanized change-history log that translates raw vCenter events into plain-English who-did-what. Read more →

Credentials & Documents

  • Certificate auto-parsing — Upload a .crt, .pfx, or .p12 and the Portal fills in expiration, vendor, serial, issuer, and thumbprint, with a trust-chain card and a traffic-light expiry badge. Read more →
  • Bulk credential updates from a single file import
  • Share credential notes with recipients alongside the credential itself
  • Linked credentials visibility — see related credentials directly on devices and accounts
  • Document-to-site linking with dedicated document tabs on sites
  • File revision history for template and form attachments

User & Admin

  • User activity drill-down — Dashboard counts like "292 Edited" are now clickable, opening a popup of the records behind the number, each linking to the item. Read more →
  • Company column in access logs — User and Admin access logs show Company as its own sortable column, on screen and in CSV exports. Read more →
  • Device lease tracking — Mark a device as leased to add a lease reference number and upload the lease document, with renewals auto-versioned as revisions. Read more →
  • Bulk tag import — Import tags from a single validated file; missing tags are created automatically with the right colors. Read more →
  • Template fields as sortable grid columns for faster scanning and sorting
  • Enhanced user reports with detail drill-down
  • Smarter "Add" defaults that remember your last company context

Organization

  • Pre-defined folder structures applied automatically to new objects
  • Pinned note reminder cadence — choose always, hourly, daily, weekly, a custom interval, or never
  • Site deletion with cascading cleanup of the objects beneath it

Backend Modernization Update

The migration from our legacy Classic ASP backend to the modern .NET Core API has continued throughout this release, covering more datagrids, object management, security endpoints, and integration plumbing. These changes improve performance and security and lay the groundwork for everything above.

Looking Ahead

We remain on track to have the complete backend fully migrated to .NET Core by the end of the year, delivering faster response times, stronger security, and a more robust platform across the board. As always, tell us what you'd like to see next — reach the team at [email protected].
