Identity Manager release note 5.2.0

Release date: 2025-11-17


Main new features

Spring update

Spring and related libraries as well as other dependent third party libraries were upgraded in order to keep up high security levels. This also affects our SAML implementation. We also support later Tomcat versions with this update. See Upgrade Smart ID Identity Manager from 5.1.0 to 5.2.0 for details.

Correlation ID logging

Smart ID Identity Manager is at the heart of the Smart ID suite where different components are packaged together. In order to trace actions through logs of the different components, a correlation ID that is passed between components will be made available for logging over time. With this release, a correlation ID with requests to Certificate Manager is available plus some starting points for the correlation id in IDM.
