Integrated OpenAthens Support
Build in support for OpenAthens without the use of Shibboleth or EZProxy.
43 votesReleased in ILLiad v9.2 on 3/22/22.
Prior to v9.2, ILLiad only supported OpenAthens as an IDP using third-party SAML SP software, such as EZProxy or the well-known Shibboleth SP software. The native SAML Module included with ILLiad v9.2 integrates support for SAML authentication directly into ILLiad so that using OpenAthens no longer requires EZ Proxy or other third-party software. It isn't a full OpenAthens integration, but it should allow institutions using OpenAthens as an IDP to lay much of the groundwork that we need in place to have tighter integration later on.

Streamlined patron load/registration functionality and updating of records
Add functionality to reduce the amount of information a patron has to enter upon registration if the institution already has that info via some other authentication system or other service/database while still getting it into the patron record. Also update patron records if the data in the primary source changes.
18 votesAs of ILLiad 9.1, authentication enhancements have been added that allow ILLiad to map user attribute fields from external authentication systems into the ILLiad User table fields. Staff is able to select which fields can be passed through to update the user record. Users can now be automatically created, pre-cleared, and skip the NewAuthRegistration and Billing pages for user clearance into ILLiad.

Automatically block patron accounts when the expiration date is reached
All patron accounts are given expiration dates but the account remains active beyond this date until something occurs and the account is investigated and then manually blocked.
It would be great to have the system automatically block users when the expiration date is reached. This would help prevent graduated students and people no longer with our library from requesting materials through our services.15 votesAs a part of the Automatic User Expiration feature, 4 new Customization Keys were added to the Customization Manager in v9.1 under System | User Expiration including AutoExpireUsers which determines if the System should automatically expire users. If set to yes, the system will set the cleared value of expired users to the value specified by the ‘AutoExpireUsersClearedValue’ key.

Allow shared server installations to share a RAPID account (similar to sharing OCLC account)
When downloading new requests, a certain site code would need to be designated as the primary site for receiving those requests. The requests could then be doled out to other ILLiad sites on the server for fulfillment and all would update that same RAPID account.

SLPasswordChanged does not appear on page

Allow API to truncate field lengths needed for acceptance
The way the API currently functions is that if an entry in a field is too long for the database to receive the call falls. It would be nice if the API was able to truncate the field to the appropriate length so the call would still go through but the offending field would be automatically trimmed to the needed length.
