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 +This release includes many updates to our platform. We are releasing some beta features for customers using our latest version of the API Gateway, allowing them to use multiple authentication methods. On top of that, we have also launched a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V351.WebHome||target="blank"]] for **all** customers. Furthermore, we have a series of smaller improvements to enhance your everyday work.

5 -=====New features=====
5 +==== Minor changes ====
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 +* General - Runtime Image: A new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V351.WebHome||target="blank"]] for **all** customers is available.
8 +* Create - Flow Designer: The help text for the Result Type attribute of the JSON to XML transformer has been improved. (#1553)
9 +* Deploy - Releases: The on‑hover text for a release also displays the most recent date and time the release was edited. (#341)
10 +* Create - Flow Designer: Unused support objects can be deleted with a single button. (#794)
11 +* Deploy - User Management: For models that have been migrated to our latest functionality for both our event streaming and API offering, changes to users in the Deploy phase will be applied immediately for both manually created users and system users.
12 +* Deploy - Architecture: The Apply to Environment pop-up has been updated to reflect progressive changes made to specific objects. Any pending changes on Container, Router, Certificate, Instance, and AWS resources are now stacked and displayed to the user. The list is ordered from the earliest change at the top to the most recent at the bottom, allowing users to clearly see all modifications made to a specific object until the Apply to Environment button is clicked. These changes will remain active for future operations. (#1537)
13 +* Deploy - Architecture - Routes: The View and Edit pages for Routers have been updated to remove the Endpoint DNS Name and Flow Symbolic Name fields. (#1537)
14 +* Manage - Alerting: For Log and Error triggers, a custom subject can now be specified under ‘notifications’. This enables you to sort incoming alerts in your mailbox more easily.
15 +* Manage - Alerting: We have tightened the allowed characters for the triggers to reduce further the likelihood of HTML injection into the bodies of alerting emails sent by eMagiz.
16 +** Note: if you already have existing alert rules that contain characters that are now considered illegal, you will need to change them when you make any change to that trigger.
11 11  
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 +==== Bug fixes ====
17 17  
18 -=====Minor changes=====
20 +* Create - FlowDesigner: When using DSH support objects, the required admin-only fields are automatically filled in. (#1755)
21 +* Create - Untransfer integration: We fixed an issue where you could not remove an integration of the Mendix connector system, which was migrated from the Legacy eMagiz Mendix Connector to the current eMagiz Mendix Connector in Create.
22 +* Design - Catalog: Help texts related to “content”, “Json format”, and “Gateway message definition” are updated. (#1082)
23 +* Create - Store: When importing a store component with properties, validation feedback will now be provided if the property value does not align with the expected type. (#1276)
24 +* Manage - Explore: Error message is much more descriptive when the container is not running (#1321)
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.
26 +==== Remarks ====

33 -====Bug fixes====
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.

41 -====Remarks====
42 -
43 -* Deploy - Releases: We removed the existing snapshots of release property values.
28 +* General - Infrastructure: We updated our image builder for Windows images to use the latest Java versions for images. Effectively, this means that any image built for Windows from this release onwards that uses a base image 3.4.0 or above, will use Java 21.0.10 as baseline. Images below version /3.4.0/ will now use Java 17.0.18. Therefore, new (property) releases that use the same eMagiz base image, will still use a different Java version, and may therefore have some changed behavior. Normally that would not be noticable, but since these Java version increases drops support for some weak cipher suites, connectivity may be affected. For more information, please refer to the release notes of image 3.5.1.
