May 4, 2022 — Registration service update

The Akamai Identity Cloud (AIC) service will undergo a maintenance update on 04 MAY 2022 starting at 17:00 UTC and lasting for ~4 hours. The service will remain operational during this period with no disruptions expected for any AIC service.

  • When: 04 MAY 2022, 17:00 UTC
  • What: The Registration Service (CaptureUI) will be updated to support silent merging of accounts for custom providers. Silent merge is an opt-in feature in which an account merge occurs without prompting the end user to re-authenticate. Currently, Identity Cloud keeps a list of built-in providers that are allowed to silently merge. If a customer wants to enable Silent Merge for one of the allowed providers, they need to set up a Capture client setting called "silent_merge". Currently, this does not apply to custom providers, but once this release is completed, that same setting will work for custom providers.
  • Component Area(s): Hosted Login, OpenID Connect
  • Duration/Impact: The service will remain operational during this period with no disruptions expected for any AIC service.

The Identity Cloud API documentation for each Component Area and Associated Service can be found in the article Release categories and endpoints.
