In Media Entities, a new Authentication Type named Session User is available. Select this option to support authentication of user accounts without using SSO. When this option is selected, you must provide a Session User Query Parameter, which will be sent as a query parameter in content proxy requests. You can now send 'wt.effectiveUid to Windchill with content proxy requests.
TW-27193
A new option has been added to the User Management Subsystem that allows an administrator to restrict users from having more than one concurrent session. Users will not be able to open a new incognito or private browser session and login when same user is already active in ThingWorx.

The following properties in the OData Connector to allow provisioning of unavailable endpoints were added:
The Swagger Spec, taken as JSON, will include the endpoint definitions for the unavailable endpoints.
A settings that indicates when conflicts are encountered with endpoints delivered through the Swagger Spec and endpoints available through parsing the OData Spec, endpoints from the Swagger Spec will override what is available from parsing the OData Spec.

Remote bindings now have a new aspect to control the read behavior after a restart. The default behavior is the same as the behavior in older versions, but customizing the new aspect allows a property to lock processing events until after syncing with the remote values. See Thing Properties for additional information.
TW-27638
TW-26600
Added the capability for a Media Entity to support 2-way SSL. This provides a new SSL Connection Configuration table for a Media Entity where you can configure the Keystore or Trust Store with passwords.
TW-27194
Added the Authentication Setting Sets HTTP Form Authentication as the default fallback mechanism to the User Management Subsystem. When this option is selected, users who logged in using an organization's form login page will now be prompted for credentials on that same page. This feature uses a cookie, which the form login page stores in the user's browser.
The following known issues exist with this functionality and will be fixed in a later release:
When a user's session expires or is otherwise invalidated while working in a mashup, upon their next click in that mashup, the user is redirected to the form login page to re-authenticate. After successful re-authentication, the user is redirected to their home mashup and not to the mashup in which the user was working.
When a user is working in Composer with the Sets HTTP Form Authentication as the default fallback mechanism option selected, if the user's session expires or is otherwise invalidated, the form login page will be partially displayed as a mini-frame in the Composer window.
When theSets HTTP Form Authentication as the default fallback mechanism option is selected and a user attempts to authenticate with cookies disabled, the form login page will immediately redirect the user back to the form login page.
