What's Changed

Add Session Timeout for logged in Users (End Inactive Sessions)

HIVO has just introduced an important feature to enhance system security:

• When this feature is enabled, the system will automatically log out users if no activity is detected within the configured time period. For example: If set to 30, the session will automatically end after 30 minutes of inactivity.

• This helps reduce the risk of unauthorized access, especially in cases where users forget to log out of their devices.

Enhanced Update: Asset Display Management in Canva Plugin

To improve user experience and ensure assets are used appropriately, we’ve updated how assets are displayed in the Canva plugin.

🔹 Update details:

• Depending on your organization’s preferences, Archived / Sensitive / License-expired assets (as configured in the Client Profile Settings) can now be set to either show or be hidden in the Canva plugin.

• This allows users to better focus on active, ready-to-use assets — or adapt visibility according to specific organizational needs.

Update default view when opening templates in Editor – Optimized for Restricted Users

This update aims to enhance the experience for users with restricted rights (Restricted Users – meaning users who have the “Must use image editor template” permission).

🔹 Update Details:

• When a restricted user accesses the Editor page, the system will automatically open the “Pick a Template” modal, eliminating the need for the user to manually click this button. This streamlines their workflow and saves time.

• When a restricted user launches a template:

  • The template will now open with the “Design” tab as the default view (instead of the “Layer” tab previously).

  • The interface will automatically switch to Fullscreen mode to optimize workspace and design experience.

🔸 Note: These changes only apply to users who have the “Must use image editor template” permission. Other users will not be affected by this update.
