New FieldClimate Reauthentication (Release 20260804 / Sesame), what changes?

Dear FieldClimate users, on 4 August 2026, FieldClimate introduced a platform-wide user experience and security enhancement update. The release delivered a refreshed login and registration experience, a mandatory one-time re-authentication process for existing web users.

Notes:

• All existing web users will be required to complete a short account verification process during their next login. This process includes confirming account details, creating a new password that meets enhanced security standards, and reviewing personal information, as outlined below in Refresh Login and Registration Flow.

• Mobile app users (always logged in) and API-only users are NOT affected. Mobile re-authentication will follow in a second release. New password requirements apply also to mobile for new signups and forgot password flow (routes through browser).The process takes less than 2 minutes to be completed..Username is now case-sensitive!
