5		-**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.
	5	+**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** It has been a while since our last deployment on the 9th of December. As a result we have finished up a lot of new improvements to our 3rd generation runtime offering and fixed a variety of annoying bugs as well as some small improvements. This release is characterized by the major steps we took to release several major features on our 3rd generation runtime among which are the queue browser and message redelivery functionality.

7		-== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
	7	+== **Queue Browser** ==
8	8
9		-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.
	9	+{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
10	10
11		-//__Migration of JMS backup configuration improved__//
12		-With this release, the configuration of the JMS backup configuration is improved to prevent potential connectivity issues after migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.
	11	+To enhance the observability of your integration landscape while running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture we have added a new feature to our Manage phase called the "Queue browser". You can access this functionality via the "Explore" menu option in Manage. With the help of the queue browser you can, as the name suggests, browse your queue.
13	13
14		-//__Prechecks on Upgrade option made available for 3rd generation runtime__//
15		-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.
	13	+To do so, we offer two options within this functionality. We have the Explore function and we have the Wiretap function. When selecting a queue and opting for the Explore option you get a live view of what data is currently present on the queue. When selecting the Wiretap functionality you automatically wiretap your queue and are presented with copies of your actual message that pass through the queue from the moment you pressed the Wiretap button.
16	16
17		-//__Autogenerated exits can be deployed at once__//
18		-This release has fixed a bug that prevented you from deploying an exit flow correctly.
	15	+[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-overview.png]]
19	19
20		-//__Code mapping functionality available on 3rd generation runtime__//
21		-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.
	17	+After selecting the queue and choosing the option eMagiz will show you the list of messages (oldest first) that are currently on the queue (Explore option) or that passed the queue since the moment you activate the option (Wiretap option). For each message you have various options at your disposal.
22	22
23		-//__Improved the performance when activating a release__//
24		-With this release, the performance of activating a release has improved considerably. This means less waiting time when activating a release.
	19	+* Delete the message from the queue (Explore option)
	20	+ ** This means throwing away live data which can be helpful in a test or acceptance environment where you inadvertedly put a lot of messages on a queue.
	21	+* Clear message from the wiretap queue (Wiretap option)
	22	+ ** Once you are done with the analysis of a certain message in the wiretap functionality you can clear it from the overview so it does not clutter the view anymore
	23	+* Refresh messages list (both options)
	24	+ ** By pressing this button you can refresh the list of messages that are displayed to you. Note that the list is sorted in such a way that the oldest messages are shown first
	25	+* Save as test message
	26	+ ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create. Note that we link the message to the corresponding flow if we can. Should we not be able to do so we link the message to your model so you can still use it in the flow testing functionality.
	27	+* Download
	28	+ ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.
25	25
26		-//__Failing runtimes won't be restarted indefinitely anymore__//
27		-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.

29		-== **Exportable Release Audit** ~* ==
	32	+== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
30	30
31		-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.
	34	+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.
32	32
33		-[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@188-release-blog--exportable-release-audit.png]]
	36	+//__SOAP and REST web services migration, including splitting them__//
	37	+With this release, we have released the migration process that will allow you to migrate SOAP and REST web services to the 3rd generation runtime. At the same time, you can directly split the all-entry to eliminate that construction. A specific migration path for this will be published in the documentation portal.
34	34
35		-{{warning}}Note that the following restrictions apply when exporting an audit document:
36		- * Works **only** for releases that are promoted and made active on **Production**
37		- * You will **only** see changes made during the **current** calendar year
38		- * On the first of April all objects of the **last** calendar year will be **removed**.
39		- ** As a consequence you cannot download this information anymore **after** the first of April{{/warning}}
	39	+//__Changing SSL settings for 3rd generation runtime models works__//
	40	+As with the current runtime architecture, you can change the SSL settings if needed for a model running in the 3rd generation runtime.
40	40
	42	+//__Improved migration for JMS flows__//
	43	+This release will improve the migration of JMS flows when migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.
	44	+
	45	+{{warning}}If you already migrated your JMS flow, you should execute a "Reset" action on the JMS level to get these changes in your model{{/warning}}
	46	+
	47	+//__Removed the ability to add "Debug components" to a flow running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture__//
	48	+As of this release, you can no longer add debug components on a flow already migrated to the 3rd generation runtime. This functionality will not work in the 3rd generation runtime and would break your flow.
	49	+
	50	+//__Deployment plan is updated correctly when completly migrated to the 3rd generation runtime architecture__//
	51	+We have fixed a bug that generated an incorrect default deployment plan once you were fully migrated to the 3rd generation runtime.
	52	+
	53	+//__Correct property generation for Event Streaming flows using the 3rd generation runtime architecture__//
	54	+With this release, the properties generated for Event Streaming flows running in the 3rd generation runtime are configured correctly to mimic the ones in the image.
	55	+
	56	+//__Added "Reset" functionality__//
	57	+With this release, a new functionality has been added for 3rd generation runtimes that allows you to combine several steps into one action, called "Reset runtime." The effect of this action is the same as it currently is in the legacy runtime.
	58	+
41	41	== **Feedback items ** ==
42	42
43	43	We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
44	44
45	45	//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
46		-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.
	64	+We have improved various display names using the merge functionality within our store offering.
47	47
48		-//__Press "Enter" to search on multiple pages__//
49		-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.
	66	+//__Update security protocols for our internal architecture__//
	67	+Parts of our internal infrastructure (i.e., docs.emagiz.com) have been updated to adhere to the latest security standards.

	73	+== **Bug fixes ** ==
	74	+
	75	+//__Decent validation feedback when not filling in the property value__//

	77	+
	78	+//__Incorrect resource locations__//
	79	+We have fixed several instances where the resource location was not generated correctly in the 3rd generation runtime.
	80	+
	81	+//__Apply to environment in User Management performance improvement__//
	82	+We have improved the performance of updating User Management on your environment. This way, the update functionality is more stable and faster.
