Reliability & Bug fixes
Resolved 2 bugs related to Provar Grid videos not displaying properly on Test Execution pages.
This has resulted in a new CSP Trusted Site being added to the app, allowing videos to be retrieved from our partner company LambdaTest. You can disable this CSP Trusted Site, ‘LambdaTestAPI’, if you are not using Grid.
Navigate to Setup → Trusted URLs → LambdaTestAPI and click Edit.
Uncheck Active box → Save.
