The UltraNow activation beta
UltraNow now connects sign-in, a managed AI Ultra identity, and persistent session controls in one beta workflow.
A complete activation workflow
UltraNow’s beta activation flow is now implemented. A user signs in, sees the managed identity used for AI Ultra, and can enable, extend, or disable a bounded access session from the application.
The first product scope is deliberately narrow: one managed product and a clear employee action. The application needs to make it apparent which identity to use, whether a session is active, and when that access is expected to end.
Persist the session beyond the page
Activation state now lives in persistent records. A session tracks its start and expiry together with the state needed for assignment, revocation, and cleanup. Closing a browser tab should not erase the application’s record of an active access window.
The authentication service connects the sign-in flow with managed Workspace identity provisioning. The licensing integration then applies the assignment associated with that session. Scheduled expiry processing provides a path to end access after the window closes.
Connect the administrative side
Live identity provisioning and license assignment require the appropriate service-account credentials and administrator setup. The beta implements the application flow and provider integration points; a deployment needs those permissions before it can control real access.
The immediate engineering focus is the session lifecycle under failure: a provider operation can fail, a browser can disconnect, or cleanup can be delayed. The session record gives those cases somewhere to be represented and recovered, rather than leaving access dependent on the page staying open.
