Configuration Profile Update July 17th, 2020

Written by Blackline Safety | August 11, 2020

Customers will notice the change log at the bottom of their configuration profiles was updated on July 17th with the initiator “Blackline Safety Customer Care | Customer Care”. Configuration profile settings were not altered – however, new functionality was added which required the configuration to be automatically re-saved by our system.

Typically, upgrades to the configuration profile page do not require all profiles to automatically be re-saved. However, this update was very complex and required the coordination of a device-side firmware update in conjunction with a server-side software update. As a result, all configuration profiles were re-saved, which initiated a change log description at the bottom of the page.

The update was made programmatically, not manually by a customer care agent. The section of the change log describing which account initiated the change was listed as “Blackline Safety Customer Care | Customer Care” so that our customers would know who to contact for further information about the change.
