3.0

Update 3.0 - May 9, 2023

Case and Evidence Access Restrictions

Regular users and observers no longer have access to all cases and evidence. These users must be assigned to the case or set as a case lead to view a case or its evidence. Monolith admins still have full access to all cases and evidence.
Admins will see a dropdown selector in the main evidence and cases section that allowed them to swtich between thier own cases and evidence and all cases and evidence.
This change was made to offer better control of access to case and evidence data. This was also implemented to help users more easily manage thier case load and focus on the cases that they are assigned to.

Several UI Updates and Improvements

New tables and grids have been designed with pagination for better performance.
Major grids and tables now have a new query filter system to easily view the data that you want to see.
The Monolith UI styling has been updated in several places. There are some pages that still show the old UI, these secions will be updated soon.
The following details pages has been redesigned: Inquiry Details, Evidence Details, Main Overview, and Case Overview. Other sections will be updated in upcoming patches.

New Case File System

Each case has a new system for managing files. Files can now be uploaded and managed in a file/folder browser.
The individual file size limit of 30 MB has been removed, but now there is a 50GB total limit for case file storage across your entire Monolith tenant.
You can create folders and move files around as needed.
This system also comes with a file upload manager that allows you to continue uploading files while still navigating and using Monolith.
A folder from your host system and can be dropped into the file browser - Monolith will then upload the files and match folder structure.
There are several features related to this update - be sure to test it out to see them all.
