SSO Registration Redirect

Previously when a User tried to sign in using SSO, if a corresponding account was not found in the UnionCloud data set user would be returned to the homepage and an error displayed stating;
"No user account matching this email address can be found in the system"
This was a poor user experience.

We have updated the login flow now so that in this instance a user sees the following message;
"It looks like you don’t have an account on the website yet. You need to complete this registration page so you can take part in things like online elections, join Clubs & Societies as well as receive updates on things that are important to you."
At which point a user is redirected to the page where they complete their profile, this presents a much better user experience and allows you to capture much more data. It also allows users to utilise SSO even if the university have not yet provided you with their student details.
At the point the university do provide the CSV of Student Data or run their SOAP/REST Webservice to send the student data, it takes the record that has been created for the user, populates any extra information that it can supply, such as accurate Course Start/End Date, Year of Study, Programme ID etc.
It is also at this point a user is moved into the Confirmed Students Usergroup.

  • This issue has been resolved.

Ticket Redemption API

We have developed and released a Redeem Tickets API, this will allow UnionCloud users to create or work with developers to create apps and web services for ticket redemption, full documentation is on APIary here.

  • POST /events/{event_id}/ticket_redemption - This is a POST request to redeem any ticket. To use this API effectively first use the Get All Events API to fetch the event id then use Event Attendees API to fetch the ticket numbers and finally use the Redeem Tickets API to redeem any ticket. Tickets for Expired and Cancelled events can also be redeemed.

  • This was an enhancement.
