188 - Close Encounters

Last modified by Carlijn Kokkeler on 2024/04/18 13:21

Hi there, eMagiz developers! This release is characterized mainly by our efforts to bolster our 3rd generation runtime and all its interactions. Furthermore, some minor fixes and beta features will be released to the community.

3rd generation runtime bolstering

This release will introduce various improvements for our 3rd generation runtime. Below you will find the most noteworthy enhancements we made to the 3rd generation runtime and its interaction with the portal.

Migration of JMS backup configuration improved
With this release, the configuration of the JMS backup configuration is improved to prevent potential connectivity issues after migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.

Prechecks on Upgrade option made available for 3rd generation runtime
As with the current runtime architecture, you can now also execute the prechecks before automatically upgrading to the latest cloud template on the 3rd generation runtime architecture.

Autogenerated exits can be deployed at once
This release has fixed a bug that prevented you from deploying an exit flow correctly.

Code mapping functionality available on 3rd generation runtime
As of this release, code mapping functionality is also available for the 3rd generation runtime. This removes the restriction on migrating to the new 3rd generation runtime for our clients that use the code mapping functionality.

Failing runtimes won't be restarted indefinitely anymore
We have put a cap on this behavior to prevent your logs from exploding due to a failing runtime being restarted indefinitely. As of this release, five attempts will be made to restart a failing runtime. If the runtime can not start correctly after these attempts, the runtime will be stopped.

Exportable Release Audit *

On top of that, we will also launch a new Beta feature to the community that allows you to export an audit document of your (Production) release.

Note that the following restrictions apply when exporting an audit document:

Works only for releases that are promoted and made active on Production
You will only see changes made during the current calendar year
On the first of April all objects of the last calendar year will be removed.
- As a consequence you cannot download this information anymore after the first of April

Feedback items

We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.

Improved naming convention on Store related pages
We have improved various display names to ensure that it is clear from the naming that store content can be implemented in all integration patterns.

Press "Enter" to search on multiple pages
In our Daemon Switch release, we added functionality that allowed you to press Enter to search on the property overview page. This release has added this functionality to many more pages across the portal. The complete list is as follows.

Deploy → Deployment Plan
Deploy → Properties → History
Deploy → User Management → Roles
Manage → Error Messages → Error Messages
Manage → Error Messages → Flows with Error Messages
Manage → Error Messages → Exceptions of Error Messages
Manage → Log Entries
Manage → Alerts
Manage → Triggers
Manage → Tags – Cant find (only Gen2)
Manage → Notifications
Manage → Notification Settings
Manage → Data Usage → History
Manage → Code mappings → All tabs

Bug fixes

Loading problems of Deployment plan execution overview
We have fixed a problem that could cause issues when trying to show the deployment plan execution overview after pressing the Deploy button in Deploy -> Releases.

As always, this is a gentle reminder to ask questions via the Q&A forum. The Q&A forum is available in the eMagiz iPaaS portal, so we can all benefit from the knowledge within the community. For some inspiration, take a look at these forum answers:
