# What's New

We deliver updates and improvements to YouTrack continuously. Here's an overview of the changes that are available in this version.

## New Features

| Feature | Description |
| --- | --- |
| [Helpdesk Customer Groups](helpdesk-customer-groups.html) | Share tickets with multiple reporters from the same company, team, or organization. Group members can follow and comment on shared tickets, so everyone involved stays informed without agents having to manually add each person.   |
| [Easier MCP Connections](model-context-protocol-server.html) | Connect AI tools to our remote MCP server by signing in with your YouTrack account. This eliminates the need to create or copy permanent tokens, making setup simpler and safer. |
| [New Import Options](imports.html) | Move your work from ClickUp or Asana to YouTrack with new pre-defined import packages. Set up imports faster with ready-made mappings for common project data, so your teams can get started with less manual configuration.   |
| [GitHub App Authentication for VCS Integrations](github-integration.html) | YouTrack now supports GitHub App authentication for GitHub VCS integrations, letting administrators connect repositories using a GitHub App ID, private key, and app installation instead of a personal access token. |
| [Scheduled Sync for Google Workspace](google-authentication-module.html) | The Google authentication module now supports background synchronization of users and groups from Google Workspace.     When Google API access is configured, YouTrack can discover users and groups, import selected groups, and synchronize user and group data independently of user login activity. Scheduled sync runs hourly, every 3 hours, or daily, and can also be triggered manually at any time.   |
| [SCIM 2.0 Provisioning per Auth Module](user-import-and-synchronization.html#scim-20-provisioning) | SCIM 2.0 provisioning is now configured separately for each authentication module.     To set up SCIM provisioning, enable it on the SCIM 2.0 tab of the authentication module.     SCIM 2.0 provisioning is supported for [JetBrains Account](jetbrains-account-auth-module.html#scim-provisioning), [Okta](okta-auth-module.html#scim-provisioning), [Microsoft Entra ID](azure-ad-auth-module.html#scim-provisioning), [Keycloak](keycloak-auth-module.html#scim-provisioning), [SAML](saml-authentication-module.html#scim-provisioning), [OAuth 2.0](oauth2-authentication-module.html#scim-provisioning), [OpenID Connect](openid-connect-authentication-module.html#scim-provisioning), [LDAP](ldap-authentication-module.html#scim-provisioning), and [OpenLDAP](open-ldap-auth-module.html#scim-provisioning) modules.   |

## Other Enhancements

| Feature | Description |
| --- | --- |
| [Gantt Chart Updates](gantt-charts.html) | We've made it easier to navigate and update Gantt charts, with improvements for creating items directly in the timeline and jumping to bars that are outside the current view.    |
| [Whiteboard Improvements](whiteboards.html) | Whiteboards now make it easier to organize work with interactive widgets, resizable text, multi-card commands, and undo/redo actions. A new auto-arrange option helps you clean up scattered cards and turn messy boards into structured layouts with less manual effort. |
| [Dedicated Pages for Project Settings](configuring-a-project.html) | YouTrack now has a dedicated Project Settings page that moves less frequently used project configuration options into a second-level settings area. This keeps the project sidebar cleaner for everyday users while still giving project administrators a focused place to manage configuration.   |
| Auth Module UI Overhaul | Several authentication modules have been updated with a modernized UI, consistent with the design introduced in the Okta and Microsoft Entra ID modules. The updated modules include [GitHub](github-authentication-module.html), [Google](google-authentication-module.html), [OAuth 2.0](oauth2-authentication-module.html), [SAML](saml-authentication-module.html), and [LDAP](ldap-authentication-module.html).    |
