    General

    In your configuration for Dex (dex-app) in workload clusters, you may notice a new connector named giantswarm-ad. We are adding this one to enable Giant Swarm staff access, authorized via OIDC, using Azure AD as an identity provider. We are currently rolling that out to all installations.
