Please find out more on our Release blog.

New features

• A new runtime image for customer models running on the 3rd generation runtime. Please find out more on our Runtime Image release notes.

Major changes

• Store - Private store. This release introduces the private store with the following features:
  • Store items will be private by default and are only accessible for users that belong to the same company as the user that exported the store content. Note that the store item needs to be approved before it is visible to users.
  • A new user role, "Store Exporter," will be introduced and can be assigned to the users who can create and update store items.
  • Approval of a store item will be executed by eMagiz personnel, who can also set a store item to be public.
  • Public store items will be importable by all users.

Minor changes

• Create - Event Streaming: Event streaming is now available for models migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.

• Deploy - Deployment plan: While generating a default plan, flow type steps will not be created for OSGi runtimes that run on a Docker machine. (#798)
