The BigFix team is pleased to announce an update to Software Distribution
and the Self-Service Application!



**New Features available in Self Service Application (SSA 3.3.0):**

**Catalog restyling**
Offers and Action Requests are now in different tabs. This will make it
easier for the user to find information for Offers and Action Requests, and
take the appropriate actions. As a reminder, Action Requests are
actions that have been pushed by the BigFix operator to the specific
endpoint, and that the end user has to act upon (accept, snooze, decline).
Offers are instead elements (typically software installations) that are
made available to the end-user for their consumption.

**Multi-Actions feature**
 It is now possible to accept/snooze/decline multiple actions at the same
time.

**Confirmation Message**
SSA now allows to display a confirmation message before running an action.

**Snooze button available in Summary Notification**
The snooze choice will be applied to all the elements included in the
Summary Notification.

**Log rework**
More information added to default logs. For example, snooze actions
executed by the user are now logged.

**New Fixlet 322 on Software Distribution site**
With Fixlet 322 it is possible to enable/disable debug logging in SSA.

**Fixlet 317 on Software Distribution site is now superseded**
Fixlet 317 -Sets the default view- is no longer applicable on the current
SSA 3.3.0.



**Fixed issues:**

- KB0110774: REST API permission requirement not documented.

- KB0111578: Document about SSA limitation with Seamless SSO.
- KB0112508: Wrong DeclineMessage german translation.
- KB0103937: HTTP Error 60 occurs while exporting package.



**Actions to Take**

- Gathering of the site will automatically show the new updates.

- Users of the BigFix Self Service Application will need to update this
component to version 3.3.0 using the following fixlets from Software
Distribution site:

         -- Fixlet 302 to upgrade SSA for Windows.

         -- Fixlet 304 to upgrade SSA for Mac OS.



**Published Site Version**

Software Distribution, site version 119
