= Overview
The Red Hat Single Sign-On (RH-SSO) Server, based on the Keycloak project, enables you to secure your web applications by providing Web SSO capabilities based on popular standards such as SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect, and OAuth 2.0. The Server can act as a SAML or OpenID Connect–based identity provider (IdP), mediating with your enterprise user directory or third-party identity provider for identity information and your applications using standards-based tokens.

= New or Improved Feature Overview
Some of the new features in this release are technology preview features, which means they are available, but not fully supported. You may use these for testing, but features marked for technology preview will not be supported if used in production. These are marked as technology preview in this list and in our documentation. Because they are not fully supported for production use, technology preview features are disabled by default, but the features can be enabled if you want to try them out. We are seeking feedback on the technology preview features, so please log a support ticket if you have comments on a technology preview feature.

Features that remain in tech preview in this release include:
* Fine-grained authorization permissions
* Token exchange
* Cross data-center replication
== Authorization Services
Authorization Services was introduced as a technology preview feature back in the RH-SSO 7.1 release. In 7.3 it is now fully supported, except for a small subcomponent related to custom rules implemented using Drools, which remains Tech Preview.

Authorization Services has been upgraded to be based on the new User Managed Access 2.0 (UMA 2.0) specification. Previous releases relied on the UMA 1.0 version. Upgrading introduced the ability for users to manage their resources, associated permissions, approve requests to access and share them with other users through the account management console.

There remains a subcomponent of Authorization Services related to custom rules implemented using Drools functionality that is in technology preview.
Features marked for technology preview are not supported for use in production.
== OpenShift Integration
RH-SSO now has the ability to replace the internal OpenShift IdP. This provides a better and tighter integration when securing OpenShift with RH-SSO. More details and documentation to follow. For now demo setup is available at https://github.com/keycloak/openshift-integration. This feature is currently in technology preview.

RH-SSO adapters do not yet have support for the additional signature algorithms and currently only support RS256.
== Improved Audience Support for OpenID Connect Clients
It is now possible to specify the audiences in the tokens issued for OpenID Connect clients. There is also support for verification of audience on the adapter side.
== Hostname Handling
We introduced a more flexible way to configure the hostname for RH-SSO which gives greater flexibility when deployed in Cloud-related environments. It can be determined based on request headers or configured as a fixed hostname. The latter makes sure that only valid hostnames can be used and also allows internal applications to invoke RH-SSO through an alternative URL.

== OAuth 2 Certificate Bound Access Tokens
We now have a partial implementation of the specification OAuth 2.0 Mutual TLS Client Authentication and Certificate Bound Access Tokens. Specifically, we now have support for the Certificate Bound Access Tokens. If your confidential client is able to use 2-way SSL, RH-SSO will be able to add the hash of the client certificate into the tokens issued for the client. At this moment, it is just RH-SSO itself which verifies the token hashes (for example during refresh token requests). We plan to add support to adapters as well. We also plan to add support for Mutual TLS Client Authentication.

We have also added support to override the theme for specific clients. If that is not adequate for your needs, then there is also a new Theme Selector SPI that allows you to implement custom logic to select the theme.
== Instagram Identity Provider

We have added support to login with Instagram.
* Updated design for the welcome page
== Search by User ID in Admin Console
* Updated design for the login page
To search for a user by id in the admin console you previously had to edit the URL. It is now possible to search directly in the user search field.
== Support hosted domain for Google logins
Login with Google now supports the hd parameter to restrict Google logins to a specific hosted domain at Google. When this is specified in the identity provider any login from a different domain is rejected.
== Escape unsafe tags in HTML output
Most HTML output is already escaped for HTML tags, but there are some places where HTML tags are permitted. These only exist where admin access is needed to update the value. Even though it would require admin access to update these, fields we have added an extra layer of defense and are now escaping unsafe elements like <script>.
== Browser tab support for Cordova
We now have support for using browser tab and universal links in the JavaScript adapter for Cordova. This enables SSO between multiple applications as well as increases security.
== An option to create claims with dots (.) in them
In previous versions, it was not possible to create claims in the token using a claim name containing a dot (.) character. Now it is possible to escape the dot character in the configuration, so a claim name with the dot character can be used.

These are present, but should not be considered finalized or stable as they may change between release versions.
* Hostname SPI - This SPI makes it possible to implement custom handling of hostname evaluation.
* Signature SPI - This SPI makes it possible to plug in additional signature algorithms. This enables additional signatures and also enables changing how signatures are generated. For example, using this allows using an HSM device to sign tokens.
This functionality is in technology preview and should not be used in production environments.
