What's New
The Release Notes in this section detail features that will be available as part of the March 2023 release.

The Cases tile cannot be viewed as part of this cross-launch. CX Cloud Administrators are also given additional privileges to ensure control over the details shared with Partners and Partner users.
CX Cloud Super Administrator Contact Details

Partner Organization and Partner Users Access Approval Process
CX Cloud has been updated to simplify the Partner organization/Partner user approval process. The first time a Partner organization requests customer view access to CX Cloud, the approval process applies to both the Partner Organization and pending Partner Administrator users.
Auto-Approve User Access Updated
CX Cloud Super Administrators now have the option to turn on auto approval for Partner users added to an already approved Partner account providing quick access to CX Cloud data, reducing approval steps, and streamlining the process.

CX Cloud Agent Updated
CX Cloud Agent has been updated such that customers can now edit a previously added IP range used to connect CX Cloud Agent to Campus Network assets not managed by Cisco DNA Center.
