1 -In the last sprint, we have released a lot in terms of usability improvements both while working within the various phases of eMagiz as well as when deploying your hard work to the environment of your choice. As a result, we have a series of improvements and bug fixes for you to enjoy coming out of the hackathon. On top of that, we release a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V330.WebHome||target="blank"]] containing a much needed improvement regarding deployment executions when working with state generation and code mappings on top of various improvements in our underlying code.
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====
6 +
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.

5 5  ====Minor Changes====
6 6  
7 -* Overall - Q&A Forum: When viewing a question, you can now easily copy the link to the question to your clipboard (#1471)
8 -* Capture - Add Integration: Removed the ‘remarks’ field from the ‘New Integration’ screen in Capture, because this field was not visible enough in the rest of the portal. (#1608)
9 -* Capture / Design: For new systems, message types, machines, tenants and models hyphens are not allowed in the technical name anymore. The technical name can only consist of lower case letters and digits and must start with a letter. This also applies to systems, message types and tenants that have not yet been transferred from design to create. The portal will give an error message while transferring and the hyphen has to be removed manually.
10 -* Create - Flow designer: Display name character limitations are visible in the validation feedback when adding new flow components (#1554)
11 -* Create - Resources: When trying to delete a message definition, the portal shows which transformation(s) use this message definition and should be deleted as well (#1616)
12 -* Deploy - Deployment Plan Execution: We have improved the stability of the deployment plan procedure.
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 -* Capture - Add System: When a user tries to creates a system or edits a system, loading bar is displayed before showing the pop-up. (#1228)
17 -* Capture - Edit System: When editing a system, the validation now takes into account that the name cannot be an empty string. (#1562)
18 -* Design - Message Definition: small improvements are introduced:
19 -** the widget can prevent user multiple message attributes on a message entity for the same attribute in datamodel.
20 -** when adding a new message entity to a current message entity, it doesn’t throw exception when user double click to many times in Save button
21 -* Design - Catalog: When exporting swagger json, in case an operation has example in request, the example will be shown correctly in swagger. (#1597)
22 -* Design - Solution Architecture: When modifying the number of runtimes of a system, the validation will now take into account that the value may not be empty (#1513)
23 -* Create - Add Integrations: Users are able to untransfer a flow even when there is a property attached to the flow. (#1590)
24 -* Create - Add Integrations: Flow, flow versions and the corresponding integration in the Deploy phase is cleaned when an integration is utransferred from the Create phase.
25 -* Create - Components: The browser page now displays the correct page title (#1509)
26 -* Create - Flow designer: When removing a wiretap from a channel, confirmation will only be asked once now. (#1549)
27 -* Create - Flow Designer: The default name of the REST template support object generated in passthrough API gateway operations now matches the (technical) name of the integration. (#1560)
28 -* Deploy - Properties: Fixed a bug where property descriptions were not updated when there was already a property description in place. (#1526)
29 -* Deploy - Environment Template: Fixed a bug where upgrading a fully on-premise environment would incorrectly exclude some machines.
30 -* Manage - Queue Browser: Switching environments when exploring a queue in Manage → Explore now moves the user to the queue browser of the correct environment. (#1408)
31 -* Infra - Runtime Image: The cache used for code mappings is now properly started and stopped with the application. This prevents that flows using code mappings may encounter errors when stopping their runtime and messages were still processed. (#1550)
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.
