1. Product changes
We're excited to advance our Hub integration with Phase 2, adding improved notifications via Ideagen Hub, cascade logout for consistent session management across Hub and Please Review, and OIDC authentication support for Offline Client (OLC) and Word Plugin to aid Hub migration.
1.1. Hub integration phase 2

- Hub Notification: Centralised, event-driven notifications for real-time updates.
- Cascade Logout: Sessions end automatically on logout from either Please Review or Hub, boosting security.
- OIDC Authentication: Desktop apps like Offline Client and Word Plugin now support OIDC authentication.
1.2. IQMP SSO Integration
We have integrated Hub with IQMP (Q-Pulse) to simplify authentication and improve platform interoperability when both are onboarded (PR-38085, PR-38324, PR-38325):
