Description

See the RELEASE NOTES for an overview of the major changes and the impact on the configurations.

The main new feature of this release is the updated account management. Everything related to account management has been drastically changed. Some of the new possibilities with accounts:

  • One account can have multiple pods.
  • The owners of a pod can be updated.
  • One account can register multiple WebIDs. When authenticating with a Solid app you choose which WebID to identify as.
  • One account can have multiple email/passwords to log in with. Passwords can also be updated.
  • Client credentials tokens can be created through the interface.
  • The architecture has been refactored so that it should be more easy to introduce new login methods.

The configuration generator has been updated with the new configuration options available.

In case you want to upgrade an existing v6 server, internal data will be migrated the first time the server is started after the update. Make sure to read the details of what migration does in the RELEASE NOTES.

See the CHANGELOG for all changes.
