Use Google single sign-on (SSO) to manage Swarmia access

You can now use Google authentication to manage your organization’s access to Swarmia. This is especially useful if you’d like to invite non-engineers, like the leadership team, product managers, designers, or finance team members to the app.

Once an admin has enabled Google SSO for your organization, anyone in the organization can log in using their Google Workspace credentials — no GitHub account needed. If you’ve been using GitHub authentication until now, your team members will be automatically migrated to Google SSO the next time they log in.

Other updates

Over the past few weeks, we’ve also rolled out multiple smaller product improvements.

Improvements to developer experience surveys

• The questions in the new “AI tools” topic help you measure the adoption and impact of AI tools in your organization.
• Want to see which questions have changed the most since your previous survey? You can now use comparisons and sort by them on the questions & comments tab.
• Teams can now see live surveys and follow their response rates in the daily Slack digest.

Improvements to investment balance

• You can now filter issues by any investment category breakdown in flow and focus insights. Previously, filtering was limited to the primary breakdown.
• Similarly, when opening an issue in Swarmia, you can now manually apply a category from any investment breakdown.
• You can now filter by investment category, and apply other issue filters in the focus summary. This view helps you understand the biggest investments of a team overall or within a specific initiative and investment category.
• We’ve added a progress indicator to let you know when your investment category rule changes are being processed. Since these updates involve analyzing tens of thousands of data points, they can sometimes take an hour or more. Now, you’ll see when the changes are complete.
• You can now filter uncategorized work by team, making it easier for teams to reach uncategorized inbox zero.

Author merge suggestions now applied automatically

We now automatically apply high-confidence suggestions to merge author identities from different tools, significantly improving data quality and consistency. You can view and manage all contributor identities in settings.
