What’s New in Clarity 15.7
New Timeline Layout
You can create and manage all project tasks and their relationships in the Timeline layout. The Timeline view is divided into a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) on the left and a timeline on the right. The timeline view enables you to review the project plan in a hierarchical display. You can then add, edit, or delete tasks directly in the hierarchical display. You can also select a task, open the Details panel, and edit the task.

Individuals Can Enter Time for Tasks Assigned to Teams
Individual resources who are members of a team can discover and enter time for tasks assigned to their team. A project manager can approve their timesheets and create a custom report to review the time submitted by individual users. The project financials will reflect the team’s actuals based on the time entered by individual members of the team.

Announcing Support for REST APIs
Clarity PPM now supports the dynamic new REST API infrastructure behind its expanded New User Experience feature set.
Clarity PPM now supports the dynamic new REST API infrastructure behind its expanded New User Experience feature set.
- Support for CORS – Network administrators commonly apply same-origin restrictions to network requests. These restrictions prevent a client-side web application from obtaining data retrieved from another origin and also limit unsafe HTTP requests that can be automatically launched toward destinations that differ from the original running application. With CORS, our REST APIs response can include an Access-Control-Allow-Origin header with the original value of the request acting as a key to allow access to the resource content. As an administrator or developer, you can validate that the key-value and origin for the request match. This feature was launched as a BETA in Clarity PPM 15.6.1.
- Support for REST API Keys – You can configure the REST API key authentication features to enable business users to integrate data between the Clarity PPM New User Experience and other client applications. Integration architectures can allow users to authenticate through the REST API and accomplish specific Clarity PPM actions without going into the user interface. Through API keys, user SSO credentials, access rights, and status settings match their API token. This feature was launched as a BETA in Clarity PPM 15.6.1.
