New login experience with two-step verification
We’ve overhauled the Crowd login experience and added a second authentication layer to keep your account secure. You can now set up two-step verification and verify your identity with an authentication app when you log in to protect your Atlassian account. Explore how to manage two-step verification
User access log
The user access log functionality stores the requests received by the Crowd application in the "logs" directory for Tomcat. By default, it’s <crowd-install>/apache-tomcat/logs. The access log is generated with the use of Tomcat valve.
With Crowd 6.2, the functionality is enabled by default and set in the Engine element of Crowd's server.xml file. By default, the configuration file is located at <crowd-install>/apache-tomcat/conf/server.xml.
Improved date format of user attributes
User attributes such as lastActive store date information in the epoch format. We’ve updated it with an additional timestamp representation displayed below the user attribute input. The displayed value represents the epoch value and regenerates on change.
