    We are using a single z/OS Connect server instance. After applying the OIDC configuration on the server, we observed that requests whose URL patterns do not match the configured OIDC scopes — but still contain a JWT in any header — do not fall bac...

    As an extension to IDZ-I-2324 we also suggest adding certificate logon support for all components from IDz client same way as RSE does. This as a way to further improve user experience and security as clients then can use existing smartcard infras...

    Allow LIST RECORD consumption to be drifted to ZIIP processors.

    Now, IZDS and IZPCA allow the derivation of a COLLECT to ZIIP, but it is not possible to do the same with a LIST RECORD.It would be good to study the possibility of adapting the LIST RECORD as well.
