1 -As the quarter has ended, we went silent for a couple of weeks to plan for the upcoming quarter during our PI rituals. This time we added the famous "Hackathon" to the end of the PI week so we could start the Easter break with excellent spirit after solving several smaller feedback items and bugs reported by you. Several of those stories will be included in this and the upcoming release. On top of that, we introduce various improvements to our API Gateway pattern and our 3rd generation runtime architecture. Subsequently, we will release a new runtime image supporting the multiple improvements.
1 +In the last sprint cycle, we focused on finishing our work on the release properties functionality introduced in this release. On top of that, we have some additional smaller feedback items and bug fixes coming out of the Hackathon for you.

5 5  =====New features=====
6 6  
7 -* Deploy - Releases: We take the first step to fix properties to a release. This gives users more control over properties. For example, they can ensure that the release contains suitable properties that are more manageable.
8 -** When this release reaches production, the first new release that users activate and have Gen3 containers/properties, the new feature becomes active. Users will see a wrench icon on the release. When they click on it, they will see an overview of the attached Gen3 properties.
9 -** These properties cannot be altered for that specific release. This only counts for Gen3 properties, properties for Gen2 runtimes/machines will still be fetched from the Deploy-Properties list and can still be altered. If users notice that a specific Gen3 property of a release not contains the correct value, users can edit the value by opening the property overview of the release. At the bottom of the overview, the option ‘Change properties’ allows users to edit the properties of a release.
10 -** A new ‘property’ release will be created when users use that option. A ‘property’ release can be identified by a suffix that contains a letter. Users can change the properties, and when they are done, they can directly activate and deploy the release. With our new improvements to the deployment plan, only the affected containers by the property change(s) will be redeployed. This will result in faster deployments.
7 +* Deploy - Releases: We removed two unnecessary release options: “Set release properties” and “Check properties. “ You can quickly update your properties via the Release properties overview.
8 +* Deploy - Releases: Before activating or deploying a new release, you should fill in all properties that relate to your deployment. If there are any properties without value, we will show them to you. Then you can update them and continue your deployment.
9 +* Deploy - Properties: This tab 'Properties' for managing properties is deprecated as of Release 202. As a result, it cannot be used anymore to manage properties. You can manage your properties via the 'Releases' overview. On this overview, you can select the wrench icon on the 'Create phase release' to find the property management overview. For more information about the management of properties and the related features, click on the right-bottom corner on 'Help and check out our documentation.
10 +* Deploy - Cloud Template: We have introduced new functionality for our next-generation architecture to host a MQTT broker in a failover (i.e., double lane) architecture. Please check out the cloud template [[release notes>>Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.WebHome||target="blank"]] for more information.

12 -{{info}}Important to note is that
13 -* While changing a property in a ‘property’ release, users also have the option to alter the value in the Deploy-Properties list. By default, this is set to Yes, because when a new release is created, the values of Deploy-Properties will be used and not properties of an earlier release. When a user closes the screen for editing a property, the change will immediately be implemented.
14 -* The auto-clean release functionality is unaffected by this change, ‘property’ releases will not be counted as a release.
15 -* There is a maximum of twenty-six ‘property’ releases. (twenty-six letters of the alphabet)
16 -* Only the latest release can be edited. This can be identified by checking the suffix. The suffix with the latest letter of the alphabet is editable.{{/info}}

18 18  =====Minor changes=====
19 19  
20 -* General - Control Tower: Changed several generic triggers for more predictable behavior.
21 -* Administration - License Tracker: The license tracker has been updated for new license models and features.
22 -* Administration - License Tracker: When the feature ‘Data sink’ is enabled, the number of message packs of the contract will be displayed when you hover with the mouse over the feature.
23 -* Capture - Settings: Editing message types are now consistent between new and existing ones. (#884)
24 -* Design - API Gateway: Default HTTP responses are generated automatically (#417)
25 -* Design - Solution design: An additional option is added to the context menu that navigates to the message definition added to event streaming topics without processors. (#850)
26 -* Create - Add Integrations: We used the name of the API integration that you set in the Design phase to display on the Transfer screen. That helps you choose the correct integrations to add to the Create phase more quickly.
27 -* Create - 3rd Generation Migration: You can toggle the custom error handling option for your event processors while migrating your event processing container to the 3rd Generation Runtime.
28 -* Deploy - Deployment plan: When you run your deployment plan in your model using the new generation runtimes, you will be able to be the logs that relate to an executing deployment step.
29 -* Deploy - Deployment plan: The "Prepare release" is not scheduled automatically anymore, so you can be in control of your deployment plan.
30 -* Deploy - Architecture: Certificates only editable by system admin.
31 -* Manage - Jobs: In case the model has containers that contain jobs in one of its flows, users can inspect job managers, job executions, and job step executions. Note that this only works for the 3rd generation runtime.
14 +* Store - Export: "Store exporter" users can test their exported store items immediately without waiting for approval. (#1001)
15 +* Deploy - Releases: The infographic has been updated.
16 +* Deploy - Release Properties: Required properties are checked if they contain nested properties and are not missing values.
17 +* Deploy - Property release: Names of properties can be created/removed/edited.
18 +* Deploy - History: We deprecated the old page History, which displays the property changes in your model. The properties' history is on the Deploy phase's History page.
19 +* Deploy - Architecture: Changes made to AWS Slot settings are recorded in history. (#966)
20 +* Manage - Monitoring: Improved performance of 3rd generation runtime dashboards.
21 +* Infrastructure: Tightened security policies for a more secure infrastructure.

33 33  ====Bug fixes====
34 34  
35 -* General - Runtime Image: A new runtime image for customer models running on the 3rd generation runtime. Please learn more about our [[Runtime Image release notes>>Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V140.WebHome||target="blank"]].
36 -* Design - API Gateway: Improved generation of Open API JSON and example messages for API gateway operations to handle cases where an element in your gateway definition is used multiple times. (#440)
37 -* Design - API Gateway: We fixed an issue where changing the message format of a gateway message did not result in an update of the OpenAPI (i.e., Swagger) document.
38 -* Design - System message: We fixed an issue that led to importing towards the wrong message definition when the option "Import from XSD" was chosen on a synchronous message. (#818)
39 -* Create - Message: When viewing or editing an enumeration, it is no longer deleted when the cancel button is pressed.
25 +* Design - Import: Import into design from the store is possible, even if the integration is not in Create yet.
26 +* Create - Flow Designer: Improved validation on XPath header enricher. (#1005)
27 +* Create - Flow Designer: We fixed an issue that your flow fragment metadata disappeared when you canceled your changes of the existing flow fragment in your new version of the store item. (#989)
28 +* Create - Flow Designer: In some cases, when copying/pasting components into a flow, validation alerts would be displayed that did not belong to a component. This problem is now fixed. (#955)
29 +* Create - Flow Designer: We fixed an issue that prevents dragging and dropping an annotation from the left panel after a search from the search box. The speed of creating the dialog to enter the component’s name is also improved.
30 +* Create - Flow Testing: Properties will not disappear from the list when canceling changes on a default property value. (#913)
31 +* Create - Flow Testing: Users with view rights can edit test case names, descriptions, and property values. (#973)
32 +* Deploy - Architecture: The runtimes will display the number of connected flows, not "Zero."
33 +* Deploy - Architecture (Runtime Settings): Moved the delete button to the right side of the page and fixed the bug in the help text.
34 +* Deploy - Releases: We fixed an issue that prevented you from seeing a comparison message when hovering over an exit gate flow of the API pattern if you compare two release versions in Deploy. (#839)
35 +* Deploy - Releases: We improved the loading buttons of releases on the right pane by Order (Ascending).
