### Small general improvements (SAML Issuer, Hide apps)

SAML Issuer - We now automatically generate your SAML issuer url. You may still overwrite the default SAML Issuer.
Hide Apps - You can hide apps from the Application Dashboard for situations when a user needs access to an application that doesn't need to show up in the Application Dashboard.

add link to the docs
https://next.goauthentik.io/add-secure-apps/applications/manage_apps/#hide-applications
and mention something about the info/warning, it's a change of behavior
Before authentik 2026.5, an application was hidden by setting its Launch URL to blank://blank. Existing applications using that value are automatically migrated to using the Hide from My applications option upon upgrading.
