Info
This version has been initially released on December 11th, 2021.
We are pleased to publish version 4.0 of Milliman Mind, which includes new authentication options as well as many new features and bug fixes.
New Authentication options
Milliman Mind includes a new authentication system, improving all the security aspects while making it easier to use for end-users and to manage for IT administrators.
- Milliman Mind is now able to connect to your company's internal Identity system, removing the need to have a specific password and adding the possibility to use Single Sign-On (SSO) to centralize authentication.
This connection should be set up with your IT department and is not mandatory to use Milliman Mind. You will still be able to use your Milliman Mind credentials if you do not want to use this feature. - We also added Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to Milliman Mind, giving the possibility to administrators to force their users to use a second authentication factor to access the software (Authenticator app or text message).
Some other features have also been added to improve the security of the solution: protection against brute force attack, AI to detect suspicious IP throttling, API secured accounts with access tokens, ...
Warning
Please note that you will be automatically disconnected during the migration to this new version.
New documentation
This version includes a new documentation website directly integrated into Milliman Mind. It offers a new interface, a new search engine, better categorization, and updated articles. This documentation will be continuously improved, in particular tutorial videos that will be added in the coming weeks.
Info
The documentation will be only available for logged-in users and can be accessed by clicking on the Help button in the project manager.
New interface for the project manager
Milliman Mind v4 introduces a new design for the Project manager. It brings new features like a better search engine within your Project Groups, a more responsive interface, and several bug fixes.
However, the global behavior is the same that the previous version, so you will not have to change your user habits.

Timezones management

IFERROR() and ISERROR()
These two Excel functions now catch Milliman Mind internal exceptions (errors).
Other fixes

- Very slow export when grid had many dimensions.
- /InputSettings grid was not accepting patterns without {GridName}.
- XNPV was returning NaN if a parameter was incorrect.

- Bug during validation of project if the user did not have the "sign" right.
- Mind was badly preventing to sign/validate a folder.
- MM_FlattenDim was missing some data in some cases with grids of different sizes per loop.
