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.
1 +In the last sprint, we released our migration wizard for the new eMagiz connector. This wizard will guide you through the process of migrating the existing eMagiz connector within Mendix to our latest version, which is packed with improvements. Furthermore, we will release a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V331.WebHome||target="blank"]] that corrects some changes and improves the UI/UX of loads of data grids across the platform. In addition, we have various smaller changes and bug fixes for you to enjoy.

5 -=====New features=====
5 +====New Features====
6 6  
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.
7 +* eMagiz Connector - Migration: We have implemented a migration wizard that allows you to migrate to the new eMagiz Connector. You can start this wizard via Deploy -> Mendix connectors on a system-by-system basis.
8 +** Migrating eMagiz connector flows to the new version will remove the history of the old versions from the history tab. Make sure you copy this information if you want to archive it. After migrating your flows, this will no longer be visible.

12 -=====Minor changes=====
10 +====Minor Changes====
13 13  
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.
12 +* General - Event Streaming: We have updated our event streaming infrastructure.
13 +* General - Datagrids: We have updated a lot of our data grids to reflect the latest changes available
14 +** ‘Double click’ action on data grid rows is introduced to the newer datagrid format and, where possible, configured as such. Since older grids will be gradually replaced, this update allows for the maintainability of the behavior you are used to.
15 +** Unfortunately, The above change resulted in a behavior shift when selecting one or multiple rows in a grid (for example, in the trigger overview). Previously, clicking on the whole row resulted in the selection of the row. Now only checking the checkbox results in a row selection.
16 +* Create - Transformation: In the Transformation tab of the Create phase, conditional operators can be added for transformations that have multiple attributes as a source. (#1272)
17 +* Deploy - Machine: We have updated the default network deployment strategy for Windows machines, which might affect your machines. When you access the Deploy phase, you will see the list of machines required for redeployment. Redeploying your machine will ensure you benefit from these enhanced network capabilities.
18 +* Deploy - History: Deploy releases history tab better renders the information on the screen.
19 +** Additionally, we have updated the "Export to Excel" button to reflect the latest functionality. As a result, there is no longer a limit to how many rows can be exported. (#1601)
20 +* Deploy - General: We have implemented performance improvements to the Deploy phase. The larger the model, the more notable the improvements.
21 +* eMagiz Connector - General: We released a new patch version of the eMagizConnector in the Mendix marketplace. It includes some small changes to the naming conventions to remove the ACR violations.

22 22  ====Bug fixes====
23 23  
24 -* Design - Import: Import into design from the store is possible, even if the integration is not in Create yet.
25 -* Create - Flow Designer: Improved validation on XPath header enricher. (#1005)
26 -* 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)
27 -* 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)
28 -* 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.
29 -* Create - Flow Testing: Properties will not disappear from the list when canceling changes on a default property value. (#913)
30 -* Create - Flow Testing: Users with view rights can edit test case names, descriptions, and property values. (#973)
31 -* Deploy - Architecture: The runtimes will display the number of connected flows, not "Zero."
32 -* Deploy - Architecture (Runtime Settings): Moved the delete button to the right side of the page and fixed the bug in the help text.
33 -* 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)
34 -* Deploy - Releases: We improved the loading buttons of releases on the right pane by Order (Ascending).

25 +* Design - System Message: Using the "save and create new attribute" button in the system message tab of the design phase will not open a "new attribute" window until the previous attribute’s details are properly entered and saved. (#1650)
26 +* Create - Transformation: Help text appears for relevant attributes when creating a new transformer in the transformation tab of the create phase. (#1352)
27 +* Catalog - General: The content inside the “used by integrations” table for the topic catalog is properly rendered to be more readable for systems with longer names. The title represents the content of the table. (#1224)
28 +* Create - Transformation: Date/time transformer pop-ups in the Transformation tab of the Create phase are rendered in a format that allows editing when in edit mode. (#1642)
