Cisco Spaces: IoT Services License Management Enhancement

This release introduces enhanced license management capabilities for IoT Services, enabling more granular control and improved governance at the campus and building levels.

Key features

• Campus- and Building-Based License Support

  IoT Services licenses can now be assigned and managed at the campus or building level. This provides greater flexibility for deployment and scalability.

• Configuration Restricted Without Valid License

  Users cannot configure IoT Services at a campus or building level unless a valid license is assigned to that location.

• Read-Only Access for Unlicensed Locations

  Users have read-only access to campuses and buildings without the required IoT Services license, ensuring visibility while maintaining compliance.

• Hierarchical License Upgrades per Tenant

  Tenants can add higher-tier licenses at the campus or building level within the location hierarchy to unlock additional IoT Services features as needed.

Single Floor Map Release: Digital Maps Just Got Faster, Smarter, and Easier to Manage

This release delivers a significant upgrade to the Digital Maps experience, simplifying the management of buildings, floors, and map processing at scale.

Key features

• Digital Maps management: Working with your building floor plans is now simpler and more efficient than ever with the redesigned Digital Maps management.

• Floor-Level Management & Publishing: The new listing screen provides a floor-level view with contextual actions based on each floor’s status—from setting the building address to adding floors, uploading CAD files, and reviewing, editing, or publishing maps

  Granular per-floor statuses replace the earlier building-level view, and each floor can be reviewed and published independently on its own schedule.

• Streamlined Upload with AI Previews: The upload wizard has been simplified to a single step — update floor metadata and upload CAD files for multiple floors in one shot. Level numbers can now be edited during upload. AI-generated previews are typically available within 15 minutes, so you can catch issues early — and cancel processing if needed.

• Custom Map View Defaults: Set default viewing angles (pitch, bearing, zoom) per floor, or apply consistent settings across all floors in a building.

Partner Firehose Enhancement

This release includes optimizations to the network topology API, reducing response times and improving Cisco Spaces performance, while enhancing overall reliability and efficiency.
