Link multiple authentication providers to an OnSpend profile. By linking additional accounts to an OnSpend profile,
a user can now execute various functions without requiring a second OnSpend profile or additional authorization.
Budget alerts that previously required alert opt-ins can now be overriden by linking additional email addresses.
Administrators with access to reseller domains can perform functions across all authorized reseller domains with a single
OnSpend profile. See Account Linking for more details.
The following authentication providers are available for account linking:
Google
Salesforce
Phone Number
Email Address (for non Google accounts)
Improvements
Updated license alert thresholds to round up to the nearest whole value. Since user licenses can only represent
positive, whole numbers, all relative calculations on threshold amount will be rounded up to the nearest whole value.
Migrated the previous phone number verification and alert configuration to the new linked account model. Any previously
verified phone numbers will now be displayed under Linked Accounts in the Settings view.
Alert opt-in will no longer be required if using an email address that has been verified either through email or Goolge account verification.

Previously, a unique OnSpend profile was required per reseller domain.
Removed a limitation on reseller reporting that restricted CRM reporting to 2000 rows.
Subscription alerts can be configured to trigger budget actions when reaching a specific number of licenses remaining.
Previously, OnSpend processed all alerts based on percentage of budget, which resulted in different alert threshold amounts
as available seats fluctuated.
50%, 75%, and 90% thresholds have been removed when creating new subscription alerts. All new subscription alerts
will now default only with the 100% threshold.
All cloud and subscription alert thresholds will be displayed as rounded values. Subscription alert thresholds
will be rounded up to the nearest whole number. Cloud alert thresholds will be rounded to 2 decimal places.
This improvement will improve readability of budget action notifications as well as viewing alert configurations in the OnSpend user interface.
When processing alerts, OnSpend can now execute multiple budget actions when multiple thresholds are exceeded.
Added email verification service for verifying additional accounts. In a future release of OnSpend, this service
will be utilized to connect various third party services to an OnSpend user profile.
A new anomaly API endpoint has been added for querying cost anomalies. This feature will be added to the OnSpend
user interface in a future release.
