1 -Here's our first release of this quarter. We have delivered additional small (bug) fixes in this release and released the Live Flow testing feature. The last is a real improvement during the development process of a flow. Furthermore, you will find several improvements in the way of work for nextGen environments.
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 will release new **[[environment templates>>Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.WebHome||target="blank"]]** that update a multitude of configurations on cloud and on-premises machines. Furthermore, we have a series of smaller improvements to enhance your everyday work.

5 +==== New Features ====

7 -* Create - Flow Testing: so far, the Flow Testing allows test eMagiz flows by defining the testing point on the starts and the end points and comparing the actual and expected messages. In this release, “Live Mode Testing” is introduced, making it possible to test communication with real endpoint. That means that an “http output gateway” can be marked in “Live Mode”, if so, the http output gateway will send its http request to the real endpoint and received the result so we can go further with testing.
7 +* API gateways using the latest Multiple Authentication Methods feature can now configure the [[Authorization Code OAuth2 grant type>>https://auth0.com/docs/get-started/authentication-and-authorization-flow/authorization-code-flow||target="blank"]] for their gateway users. Note that the following timeouts apply:
8 +** The authorization code is valid for **5 minutes**, meaning it should be used to obtain an access token within that period.
9 +** Clients that obtain an access token with an authorization code will also obtain a //refresh token//, which can be used to obtain a subsequent access token without user intervention. This refresh token is valid for **24 hours**, meaning the client application must call the eMagiz API gateway at least that often; otherwise, manual intervention is needed to authorize the call again.

9 -=====Minor changes=====
11 +==== Major changes ====
10 10  
11 -* Deploy - Architecture: The topics are now ordered alphabetically and the runtimes will now get the same order as design architecture (after ‘apply to environment’)
12 -* Create - Flow designer: CDM edit right is applied to the message definition in Create phase. You can not change CDM message definition, Gateway message definition, even Event streaming message definition without the proper right.
13 -* Deploy - Architecture: We improved the auto-healing feature of AWS machines. The new generation JMS server runtimes always start before other runtimes are ran.
14 -* Administration-User management: Company contact can edit permissions of models that fall under child companies
15 -* Administration: Contracts page removed
16 -* Create-Flow designer: Model resources tab removed on resources page when adding an resource to a validating filter.
17 -* Deploy - Releases: We reduced the time it takes to prepare a release, before it can be deployed. The process of building runtime images has been optimized.
18 -* Deploy - Releases: We have improved editing properties in releases for runtimes that are 3rd generation compatible.
19 -* Design - Store: You are able to see some warning messages when you import a transformation from store. Because your imported transformation is required some information from the related store fragment. You should include that store fragment to avoid a breaking transformation in Create phase after importing. Afterward, we will update your existing flow component transformer to make it work correctly.
20 -* Design - Store: We updated importing to help you avoiding an error during importing store item that will break your message definition in some special cases.
21 -* Create - Store: We excluded automatically resources that are not good enough from the exporting wizard. Then you will easy to recognize a problem and avoid creating unusable store item.
22 -* Flow Designer: Resources in "Unused resources" section can be marked as used for the case that the resources are referred by components through property placeholders or in custom spel expressions.
23 -* Create - API Gateway: We fixed an issue where an optional query parameter would cause failed requests, if that parameter was not supplied. Please reset your entry flow to apply the fix.
24 -* Create - API Gateway: We fixed an issue where API-Key secured requests would fail with error code 500 instead of code 401, if no API-Key was supplied. Please reset your entry flow to apply the fix.
25 -* Design - Store: We fixed an issue that you import the message definition(s) and a specialized DataType of imported message definition(s) are not matched with the exported message definition(s). Now, they are matched and your transformation won't get issues.
26 -* Create-Resources: When viewing a resource, its full name will be shown, removing the need to download the resource in order to obtain its name
27 -* Create - Flow designer: Improve responsiveness of resources tab at right panel
28 -* Manage - Explore: New button to delete queue is added and only visible for Expert Service (Admin)
13 +* Deploy -> Architecture (Upgrade): The authorization server has been incorporated into the environment template. The first deployment will happen in Deploy > Architecture. All infra-side updates will be covered within the environment upgrade.
14 +* Deploy -> Architecture (Upgrade): Double lane models can now upgrade to an intermediate environment template first, before upgrading to the final template in case of a service-impacting template. This allows us to verify that all containers in the backup zone are running properly before the final, service-affecting template is applied.

30 -====Bug fixes====
16 +==== Minor changes ====
31 31  
32 -* Create - Flow designer: Improved help texts of various flow components related to key-/truststores and their usage. They now better explain what you need them for and mention important security considerations.
33 -* Create - Flow designer: Various small (cosmetic) fixes and changes in the edit pages of some flow components to make them more consistent with similar pages.
34 -* Manage/Event streaming statistics. For some models, (some) topic data did not show in the graphs.
35 -* Deploy - Releases: We fixed an issue, where after removing containers from a machine, during execution of the deployment plan, the removed containers are not recognized as change, causing the ‘Deploy machine’ step to be skipped.
18 +* Generic -> Authorization Server: Improved security headers of the endpoints of eMagiz-hosted authorization servers.
19 +* Design -> Security: Removed the security setting button from the API Gateway catalog. You can still access the settings from the design overview.
20 +* Deploy: All pop-ups showing important information, like a key, secret, or password, are structured so that the data is visualised and can be copied by the user when the “show data” action button is utilised. (#1735)
21 +* Deploy -> User Management: Any reference to a URL related to the authorization server is now shown, including ‘https://'.
22 +* Deploy -> Architecture: Endpoint URL for routes is available on the view/edit pop-up of specific routes on the Deploy architecture. Additionally, the construction of how it is provided as a help text, and this feature is only available for the AWS model. (#792)
23 +* Manage -> Monitoring (HTTP Statistics): The details page will now show the display name of the user that initiated a request instead of the Id. Note: For this change to be applied to your environment, you need to adhere to the following requirements:
24 +** The MAM API-Gateway migration must be completed
25 +** You must be running on the latest environment template
26 +*** Single lane: R18
27 +*** Double lane: R20
28 +*** The gateway container must be deployed with the latest eMagiz runtime (version 3.5.0 or up)

37 -====Remarks====
30 +==== Bug fixes ====
38 38  
32 +* Generic: System display names in all phases are updated progressively with the change in the Capture phase. All other places where the system display name was allowed to be changed are now disallowed, and changes can only be made from Capture. (#449)
33 +* Design - System Message: After successfully importing an OpenAPI file in the system request/response message, the user remains on the same page. (#1308)
34 +* Design - System (Failover): When you identify a system as a failover and subsequently create the integration on that system, you do not need to push multiple versions anymore before you can deploy your release.
35 +* Design - Architecture: We inform the user via the History overview when an overwrite action is triggered in the test environment for their model upon request. (#1697)
36 +* Create - Flow Designer: The help text of the XPath expression field on the XPath splitter is updated. (#1467)
37 +* Create - Transformation: Users can mark all XPath expressions as checked by a button in the transformation page. This button will remove only the warnings that come with the import from store feature, and will delete only those with an XPath expression.
38 +* Create - Add Integrations: When creating a new event processor with JSON as input and XML as output, this configuration is reflected in the generated flow in Create after transfer. Now the message format is automatically recognized and handled correctly, similar to API Gateway operations.
39 +* Deploy - Architecture (Start/Stop Flows): Your search phrase when searching for “component names” in this overview can now contain special characters present in the technical name of your inbound component(s). (#1639)
40 +
41 +==== Remarks ====
42 +
43 +* Generic: When retrieving information from our infrastructure about available customer agents, we improved performance by reducing the amount of data we retrieve and process.
