Upcoming Improvements to the SSO enrollment dialog - We are making some improvements to the end user experience when users add their account to a Windows device. We've refined the messaging in the SSO enrollment dialog (consent) to make it easier for end users to understand the choice(s) they can make and the impact of their choice(s). The changes also include a 'Learn more' link on the screen. The link points to a Microsoft Learn article that provides users with more information that will further enable them to make informed choice(s). Please note, the new SSO enrollment dialog will be gradually introduced starting in October 2024.
Moving from a browse-based to a search-based solution for access package discovery (Entra admin centre) - We're excited to introduce a new feature in My Access: a curated list of recommended access packages. This will allow users to quickly view the most relevant access packages without scrolling through a long list. The final tab will be a complete, searchable list of all visible access packages in the tenant.
We will deploy this to all customers as an opt-in preview by the end of October, with in-product messaging to highlight the change. By the end of November, it will transition to an opt-out preview, with general availability (GA) planned for December.
