### Improvements to the B2B redemption experience and leave an org
164+
165+
**Type:** New feature
166+
**Service category:** B2B
167+
**Product capability:** B2B/B2C
168+
169+
170+
**Just in time redemption:** Once you share a resource with a guest user using B2B API – you don’t need to send out a special invitation email. In most cases, the guest user can simply access the resource and will be taken through the redemption experience just in time. No more impact due to missed emails. No more asking your guest users “Did you click on that redemption link the system sent you?”. This means once SPO uses the invitation manager – cloudy attachments can have the same canonical URL for all users – internal and external – in any state of redemption.
171+
172+
**Modern redemption experience:** No more split screen redemption landing page. Users will see a modern consent experience with the inviting organization's privacy statement, just like they do for 3rd party apps.
173+
174+
175+
**Guest users can leave the org:** Once a user’s relationship with an org is over, they can self-serve leaving the organization. No more calling the inviting org’s admin to “be removed”, no more raising support tickets.

250+
**Type:** Changed feature
251+
**Service category:** Reporting
252+
**Product capability:** Monitoring & Reporting
253+
254+
255+
We are excited to introduce the new and improved Sign-in logs user experience from within the Azure AD portal. With the new Sign-ins User experience, customers now can get the following:
256+
257+
- Improved latency from 2 hours to within 5 mins. Check out our [latency](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-reporting-latencies-azure-portal) docs for more information.
258+
259+
- Ability to add filters dynamically using the "Columns" button. By adding columns to the Sign-in report in UX, you can automatically see them as filters for you to use.
260+
261+
- Ability to sort by Date, User Name and Application.
262+
263+
- Inclusion of legacy authentications and ability to filter for legacy authentications using the "Client App" column.
264+
265+
- Inclusion of a downloadable PowerShell script which is customized based on the filter conditions you choose in the UX. With this PowerShell script, you can get as many rows of data as you want (based on your filter criteria) which will provide the output in a .csv format.
266+
267+
For more details of this feature, see [Sign-in activity reports in the Azure Active Directory portal](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-reporting-activity-sign-ins).

### Azure AD access reviews: auto-apply
290+
291+
**Type:** Changed feature
292+
**Service category:** Access Reviews
293+
**Product capability:** Governance
294+
295+
296+
Access reviews of groups and apps are now generally available as part of Azure AD Premium P2. An administrator can configure to automatically apply the reviewer's changes to that group or app as the access review completes. The administrator can also specify what happens to the user's continued access if reviewers didn't respond, remove access, keep access or take system recommendations.

### ID tokens can no longer be returned using the query response_mode for new apps.
305+
306+
**Type:** Changed feature
307+
**Service category:** Authentications (Logins)
308+
**Product capability:** User Authentication
309+
310+
311+
Apps created on or after 4/25/2018 will no longer be able to request an **id_token** using the **query** response_mode. This brings Azure AD inline with the OIDC specifications and helps reduce your apps attack surface. Apps created before 4/25/2018 are not blocked from using the **query** response_mode with a response_type of **id_token**. The error returned, when requesting an id_token from AAD, is **AADSTS70007: ‘query’ is not a supported value of ‘response_mode’ when requesting a token**.
312+
313+
The **fragment** and **form_post** response_modes continue to work - when creating new application objects (e.g. for App Proxy usage), ensure use of one of these response_modes before they create a new application.
