Overview

In this release, we added the following updates:

• Configurable gap duration between consecutive exams
• Constructor Cloud Experience Phase 3
• Two-factor authentication toggle removal for platform environments

What's new

Configurable gap duration between consecutive exams

Institutions can now configure the gap duration between consecutive exams assigned to the same classroom instead of using a fixed 10-minute buffer.

The setting is available under Settings > Planning Page Settings and provides values from 0 to 120 minutes in 5-minute increments. The default value is 10 minutes, which matches the previous behavior.

When the exam duration plus the configured gap exceeds the current slot allocation, the system increases the slot count automatically. Validation rules, including predefined exam duration checks and Excel import validations, now use the configured value.

Constructor Cloud Experience Phase 3

Schedule now includes redesigned Analytics, Settings, Notifications, and campus management screens as part of Constructor Cloud Experience Phase 3.

The Settings page now uses a tabbed shell with routing and autosave functionality. The campus list uses the new data grid component, and a new side sheet interface supports adding and editing campuses. The application header and side menu have also been updated to align with the Cloud design system, and the sidebar term selector now supports smoother period navigation.

Two-factor authentication toggle removal for platform environments

When Constructor Schedule is deployed with the Constructor Platform identity provider (CONSTRUCTOR_IDP), the two-factor authentication toggle no longer appears on the Settings page.

This prevents conflicts between Schedule's local two-factor authentication settings and the Platform's centralized authentication management.
