Changes:
- Updated `build-static-content` to support a new article category:
`whitepaper`
- Added a new article template page: `basic-whitepaper.ejs`.
- Added `deliver-whitepaper-download-request`, an action that
creates/updates a contact and account in the CRM and creates a
historical event when a user submits a form to download a whitepaper.
- Updated the "News" link in the website's header navigation to be
"Resources / Blog", and changed the link to /articles
- Added a link to the whitepapers category page (/whitepapers) to the
side bar navigation on article category pages
- Added a whitepaper article: "Modern endpoint management: Managing
devices as code"
Changes:
- Updated the category meta tag in fleet-management-software.md and
mdm-providers-compared.md and added required comparison article meta
tags
- Updated the comparison table styles on comparison articles
- Added redirects
## Summary
- Adds Fleet's dynamic SCEP challenge (Okta CA with a dynamic challenge,
available since Fleet 4.81.0) as the recommended path for Device Access
certificates on macOS 14+
- Preserves static SCEP as a documented legacy option, each with its own
downloadable example profile
- Adds `okta-device-access-scep-dynamic-example.mobileconfig` using
`$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_PROXY_URL` and `$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_CHALLENGE`;
existing static example profile unchanged
- Corrects renewal claim: neither static nor dynamic SCEP supports
automatic certificate renewal per Okta's own documentation — both
require profile redeployment before expiration
- Adds Okta documentation links throughout for proper SEO and
cross-reference:
- [Use Okta as a CA for Device
Access](https://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/content/topics/oda/oda-as-scep-okta-ca.htm)
- [Configure Okta as a CA with a dynamic SCEP
challenge](https://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/content/topics/identity-engine/devices/okta-ca-dynamic-scep-macos-jamf.htm)
- [Configure Okta as a CA with a static SCEP
challenge](https://help.okta.com/oie/en-us/content/topics/identity-engine/devices/okta-ca-static-scep-macos-jamf.htm)
- Uses correct Fleet UI path and CA type name verified against
`helpers.tsx` and the 4.81.0 release article
- Uses Okta's exact field names (SCEP URL, Challenge URL, Username,
Password) verified from Okta's documentation
- Updates `publishedOn` to reflect the revision date
## Files changed
- `articles/deploying-okta-platform-sso-with-fleet.md` — article update
-
`docs/solutions/macos/configuration-profiles/okta-device-access-scep-dynamic-example.mobileconfig`
— new dynamic SCEP example profile
-
`docs/solutions/macos/configuration-profiles/okta-device-access-scep-example.mobileconfig`
— unchanged (static example)
## Test plan
- [ ] Article renders correctly on fleetdm.com preview
- [ ] Dynamic example profile link resolves:
`okta-device-access-scep-dynamic-example.mobileconfig`
- [ ] Static example profile link resolves:
`okta-device-access-scep-example.mobileconfig`
- [ ] All Okta documentation links resolve
- [ ] Fleet UI path verified: **Settings → Integrations → Certificate
authorities → Add CA → Okta CA or Microsoft Device Enrollment service
(NDES)**
- [ ] Fleet variables `$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_PROXY_URL` and
`$FLEET_VAR_NDES_SCEP_CHALLENGE` confirmed in Fleet docs
- [ ] Meta tags present with updated `publishedOn` date
- [ ] Style guide compliance verified (active voice, bold UI elements,
no marketing fluff)
## Summary
- Adds a new Fleet guide article for the community Intune-to-Fleet CSP
converter tool
- Covers how the tool works, prerequisites, step-by-step usage, result
monitoring, resolver map, customization, and troubleshooting
- Sets honest expectations upfront: ~70–75% policy coverage, community
tool (not official Fleet product)
## Changes
- `articles/migrating-intune-policies-to-fleet-csp-converter.md` — new
guide article
## Notes
- Tool repo: https://github.com/tux234/intune-to-fleet
- Modeled on the style of `creating-windows-csps` and the Okta Verify on
Windows guide
- Download links in the guide point to the external tool repo

# Checklist for submitter
If some of the following don't apply, delete the relevant line.
- [ ] Changes file added for user-visible changes in `changes/`,
`orbit/changes/` or `ee/fleetd-chrome/changes`.
See [Changes
files](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/guides/committing-changes.md#changes-files)
for more information.
- [ ] Input data is properly validated, `SELECT *` is avoided, SQL
injection is prevented (using placeholders for values in statements)
- [ ] If paths of existing endpoints are modified without backwards
compatibility, checked the frontend/CLI for any necessary changes
## Testing
- [ ] Added/updated automated tests
- [ ] Where appropriate, [automated tests simulate multiple hosts and
test for host
isolation](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/reference/patterns-backend.md#unit-testing)
(updates to one hosts's records do not affect another)
- [ ] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually
For unreleased bug fixes in a release candidate, one of:
- [ ] Confirmed that the fix is not expected to adversely impact load
test results
- [ ] Alerted the release DRI if additional load testing is needed
## Database migrations
- [ ] Checked schema for all modified table for columns that will
auto-update timestamps during migration.
- [ ] Confirmed that updating the timestamps is acceptable, and will not
cause unwanted side effects.
- [ ] Ensured the correct collation is explicitly set for character
columns (`COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci`).
## New Fleet configuration settings
- [ ] Setting(s) is/are explicitly excluded from GitOps
If you didn't check the box above, follow this checklist for
GitOps-enabled settings:
- [ ] Verified that the setting is exported via `fleetctl
generate-gitops`
- [ ] Verified the setting is documented in a separate PR to [the GitOps
documentation](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Configuration/yaml-files.md#L485)
- [ ] Verified that the setting is cleared on the server if it is not
supplied in a YAML file (or that it is documented as being optional)
- [ ] Verified that any relevant UI is disabled when GitOps mode is
enabled
## fleetd/orbit/Fleet Desktop
- [ ] Verified compatibility with the latest released version of Fleet
(see [Must
rule](https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/blob/main/docs/Contributing/workflows/fleetd-development-and-release-strategy.md))
- [ ] If the change applies to only one platform, confirmed that
`runtime.GOOS` is used as needed to isolate changes
- [ ] Verified that fleetd runs on macOS, Linux and Windows
- [ ] Verified auto-update works from the released version of component
to the new version (see [tools/tuf/test](../tools/tuf/test/README.md))

Fixes#40975.
8.0.32 (was running in Aurora managed cloud at the time) -> 8.0.39 (what
we're running now) 8.0.36 -> 8.0.44 (latest 8.0.x version supported by
Aurora; holding off on 8.0.45 until Aurora supports it) 8.4.7 -> 8.4.8
9.5.0 -> 9.6.0
Also bumped the supported Aurora version from 3.07.0 to 3.08.2 to match
what we're running in managed cloud right now
Fleet might work on older patch versions but we'll no longer dev/test on
them. MySQL 9.x not testing previous minor versions matches with our
previous approach for that version.
Since these are all patch/minor bumps (and the overnight build cases are
patch bumps/are covered by AWS envs) automated testing should be
sufficient here.

This pull request updates the logic for selecting which user receives
maintenance window calendar events on hosts with multiple users. The
changes clarify and enforce a priority system for choosing the recipient
email, ensuring that IdP-sourced emails are preferred, followed by
Google Chrome profile emails. This affects both user-facing
documentation and backend implementation.
**User-facing behavior and documentation:**
* The end-user documentation now explicitly describes the email
selection priority for calendar event recipients: IdP Username email is
chosen first, then Google Chrome profile email, and if multiple Chrome
emails exist, the first alphabetically is selected.
**Backend logic and data selection:**
* The comment in `calendar_cron.go` is updated to match the new email
selection logic, explaining the prioritization of email sources for
host-user assignment.
* The SQL query in `policies.go` is refactored to implement the new
priority system for selecting user emails per host:
- IdP sources (`mdm_idp_accounts`, `idp`) are considered first,
- then Google Chrome profiles,
- then other sources.
- If multiple emails exist at the same priority, the first
alphabetically is chosen.

It feels odd looking at images that are completely text, instead of just
having the text on the page.

Extended the statistics payload to include arrays of Fleet-maintained
app slugs in use on macOS and Windows. Updated the datastore to query
and populate these fields, and documented the new fields in the usage
statistics article.
