Password Emails and Other v12 Web Changes

Hi all,

I'm in the process of scoping out what we need to let our web developers know about BEFORE we move to v12. Currently, our website is set up with a "Forgot Your Password" button that sends the actual email in a reminder, which I know needs to be changed to sending a reset link instead.

So my question is:

- Does anybody have any documentation or any guidelines on how the web guys should set up the "Forgot Password" links now? What calls to use, that sort of thing?

- Are there any other changes to the Web API that I should give them a heads-up about? I was assuming that the password was the big one but are there other things that I should warn them about?

 

 

Cheers,

  • Hi Matt,

     

    Like Heather, the password change was the biggest change we had to make before going live with v12. I do not recall having to make any other changes to our web site to support v12. Most of the problems we ran into were something that needed to be fixed by Tessitura or something we had to tweak within Tessitura itself (like associating our package MOS with the performances, not just the package itself).

     

    I saw that Gloria pointed you to the API documentation, which should have what you need. I’d be happy to send you a copy of the template we are using with the SendCredentials method if that would help.

     

    Thanks,

    David

    Hi Matt -

    The password was the big one for us - it also changed how and what we could store in some session variables, which made some of our sticky functionality not work right out of the box. We also ran into a side issue with how we uploaded and cached package data which needed to change to incorporate some of the new ways that Tessitura caches pricing and performances. I'm pretty sure we are an edge use case, and the majority (if anyone) people out there won't run into those same issues. 

    So basically, what I'm saying is that the things we ran into were things that occurred because we had been taking advantage of what some people would call loop holes in the system. As those loop holes get tightened or fixed we've had to re-engineer some of our web functionality. So do leave time to test!

    - Heather
