@charlievogt , yes there is! That will be Return to the Workplace version 1.6.

We're interested in the Vaccine Attestation solution. It looks like it will work for my users that have Azure AD credentials. What can i do for users who are more frontline and no real credentials? How can they register and upload an image?

@dhighsmi, Return to Workplace version 1.6 will support vaccine attestations and periodic testing (submission of test results) through the Portal, that can be access by employees with AzureAD credentials and non-employees through the different auths supported by the Portal (e.g., Linkedin, facebook, google, twitter, or just email and password). Here are the auths supported by the Portal: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/portals/configure/configure-portal-authentication

And here are the new vaccination and test attestation capabilities that will be supported in RTW version 1.6: https://myignite.microsoft.com/sessions/edbda406-0863-499b-8d8d-eb48af7acaab?source=sessions

Any idea when version 1.6 will be available? Surely soon. I looked at the "what's new" section and noticed August 2021 (1.5v) is out now.

Any chance the update will include a setting to not request camera access in the mobile app (and not have the "this app uses controls which may not be supported in this client" message appear on the desktop version) if the option to upload vaccination attestations is not used?

Is there any way to update the text for the app that is stored in the imported Excel files (StringsOOB)?

@dhighsmi, we have an exciting release coming out in the next week! Stay tuned for the announcement; The announcement will also be posted in this forum.

Any update on this error fix?

@mfitkin , Thank you for your patience! The update will be included in the next release (coming out in the next week).

We are currently using version 1.5 and just started collecting Vaccination Attestations. I am seeing a number of duplicate active attestation records for employees. If someone attests more than once shouldn't it inactivate the previous record? Has anyone else seen this issue?
