Issue Attribute Visibility Rules

Configure attribute visibility rules using the new Attribute visibility tab on the Issue type details screen in the Attribute Manager. This feature allows you to use conditional logic to control which fields appear when creating or editing issues to help reduce clutter and improve data accuracy.

For more information, see Creating Attribute Visibility Rules.

Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1

Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.

At General Availability, ABAC Phase 1: Foundations adds reporting across all object types, record-level admin access rules across all supported object types, and system assignments that are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.

All supported objects across Tech Risk & Compliance have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments, and ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing. Business objectives are now a supported object in ABAC Phase 1: Foundations.

Tech Risk & Compliance also includes changes to risk permissions, risk field visibility, and the Stage advancement setting in risk workflows. Review custom roles related to risk management to make sure they continue to work as intended.

For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1: Foundations in the Settings & Administration release notes. This feature is related to the following ideas: PLTI-I-638 and GCIA-I-918.

Note:

ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is rolling to General Availability incrementally by environment from November 2026 through March 2027. The rollout is per environment and is not part of the standard release process, and dates are subject to change. Additional capabilities and object support will be introduced in future releases through ABAC Phase 2: Dynamic Access.

For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) User Guide and Managing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) for Tech Risk & Compliance.

Mention Users in Comments with Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC)

In Tech Risk & Compliance (TRC), mentioning other users in comments is now available for everyone when they have the access ability to comment. Permissions are checked throughout, including after an assignment changes.

Unified Table Experience in Attribute Manager

Attribute Manager in Issues Management now offers a unified, standardized table experience with paginated, resizable tables and consistent search, sort, and filter behavior. This replaces inconsistent filtering, sorting, and table behavior across Attribute Manager experiences, making configuration faster, easier, and more reliable for Site Admins and managers who configure objects, attributes, and assessments, and reducing the risk of misinterpreting data.

These enhancements will be available for the following Issues Management objects:

  • Issues

Standardized Attribute Export

Attribute data in Issues Management can now be exported from the Attribute Manager, giving administrators consistent, reliable data for audits, reporting, and governance reviews. Exports can include the full attribute set or only filtered results, and column selection limits each file to the relevant fields.

These enhancements will be available for the following Issues Management objects:

  • Issues

Text Field Character Limit

Text fields in the Issues Management Attribute Manager now support up to 10,000 characters. This establishes a consistent data model that lets customers reliably capture detailed, long-form input across all downstream experiences, replacing a limit of about 1,000 characters.

These enhancements will be available for the following Issues Management objects:

  • Issues

Standard Table Experience and Customize Option Order for Attribute Options

The attribute options table in the Issues Management Attribute Manager now uses the standard OneTrust table, providing a consistent, standardized table experience. The new Reorder options experience makes it easier to customize the order of attribute options. A Customize option order setting now appears above the options list in place of the checkbox and drag handle on each row, and the Search options field remains in the same place. Adopting the standard table simplifies maintaining attribute options and supports future maintenance.

These enhancements will be available for the following Issues Management objects:

  • Issues
