Connect Features
This section describes the key features in this release:Enforce Minimum Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Limit
From this release, in order to achieve multi-factor authentication, the organization can define the minimal number of factors required from a user. This is in addition to the initial email identifier provided for authentication. For example if in addition to the the email identifier , one additional factor is required to meet multi-factor authentication, the user can provide one of the following: mobile number, address, or authentication application. If a user wants to remove an entry of the multi-factor authentication factor, they will first need to add a new entry. A setting was added to define the minimal numbers of factors. By default the minimal number of MFA factors is set to 0, so that multi-factor authentication is not required. The maximum multi-factor authentication factors allowed is 3.As of this release, Connect supports multi-factor authentication (MFA) with a minimum MFA limit setting.

Storefront Gateway Notifications
The MarketONE Storefront Gateway API includes a set of APIs that enable clients to perform identity-driven purchase and payment method management operations.

The APIs require a user access token, this is provided to the user by Connect when successfully authenticating. From this release, the Storefront Gateway provides Connect with the following new notifications:
