1 -In the last sprint cycle, we focused on improving several aspects related overviews and logging. It is now possible to see an overview of all runtimes on running machines, see runtimes and flow versions in the missing properties overview, and see which runtimes will be restarted or redeployed in a pop-up displayed when starting the deployment plan. Moreover, crash handling has been improved, as well as runtime logging and the display of the deployment execution error message. Lastly, several other minor changes and bug fixes have been done, mainly relating to the Deploy and Manage phase.
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.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====

7 -* Deploy - Releases: We added the possibility to see the container versions in the release details. This can be viewed by clicking the three dots of the release in the Deploy phase.
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.

10 +====Minor Changes====
10 10  
11 -* Deploy - Releases: When deploying a new release, containers that have no changes between the deployed release and the new release will not be deployed and restarted.
12 -* Deploy - Containers: Changing the list of flows that should run on a container will now trigger the rebuilding of images.
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.

14 14  ====Bug fixes====
15 15  
16 -* Create - Flow Designer: An issue has been fixed where it was not possible to load more store items in the left panel in the Create phase Flow Designer.
17 -* Create - Flow Designer: We improved the help text of the advanced option of ‘max fetch size’ for the mail inbound adapter to better describe how that option affects its behavior. (#1100)
18 -* Deploy - Containers: The collection and publishing of runtime metrics is no longer synchronized across containers, which improves their processing.
19 -* Deploy - Deployment plan: We solved a bug where a deployment step in the deployment plan could randomly get stuck.
20 -* Deploy - Runtimes: We improved the out of memory behavior of runtimes. Runtimes will now always restart when an out of memory error occurs.
21 -* Manage - Alerting: The alert ‘topic approaching maximum size’ alert has been temporarily disabled due to a high number of false positives.
22 -* Manage - Alerting: We solved an issue where the ‘missing metrics’ alert did not always contain the full container name.

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)
29 +* Infra - Runtime Image: Support for the ‘NTCredentials’ authentication method in a custom HttpComponentsMessageSender support object has been reintroduced.
30 +* Infra - Runtime Image: In some edge cases, log messages produced with the Logging channel adapter component did not end up in the Manage phase. This issue is now resolved.
