--**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have work hard on improving our next generation architecture and introduced the "live" mode within our flow testing functionality. Furthermore there are loads of smaller feedback items and bugs that have been resolved with this release. So without further ado let us dive into all we have to offer.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have done much work for the Deploy phase. On top of that, we have worked on several store functionalities. Next to this, we have several smaller feedback items from our hackathon efforts that are now released to you.
--== **"Live" mode on flow testing** ==
++== **Deployment Plan** ==
--With this release we bring an improved version of the flow testing functionality. As of now you will have the option to switch between "live" and "mock" mode will running a flow test. The "mock" mode is the mode you are used to from us. In this mode all external communication is mocked by the system and only the functional process can be tested.
++//__Improved deployment plan to make the process better and more predictable__//
++The algorithm for genarating a default deployment plan is improved to keep jms downtime and alerting to a minimum. Next to this, the start/stop/restart machine deployment steps are now also executed correctly for aws and on-premises machines.
--By switching to "live" mode you can not only test the functional process but also the communication to the external system. You can do so by entering the "edit" mode of the flow test and toggle between "mock" and "live" mode. When doing so eMagiz will show you the following pop-up stressing the consequences of your actions.
++//__Editing release properties__//
++With this release, it will be possible to change the description of a property by editing the property.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--live-flow-testing-pop-up.png]]
--Once confirmed you will see that the user interface now indicates that the endpoint is in "live" mode.

--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@196-release-blog--live-flow-testing-result.png]]
++== **Feedback Items** ==
--{{info}}* The following restrictions apply for this functionality
--  ** "Live" mode can only be activated on HTTP outbound gateway components
--  ** "Live" mode can **not** be active when you want to use the flow test as an "automated" test{{/info}}
++//__Alerting manual pause__//
++A few releases ago we changed the behavior of alerting in the deployment plan. Now each time when a deployment plan is executed the alerting will be automatically re-enabled when the deployer closes the deployment plan or closes the web browser. The majority of the users are happy with the new behavior, but there are some use cases that you do not want start the alerting immediately. With this release, if alerting has been paused manually, this will not be activated automatically after a release deployment.
--== **3rd generation improvements** ==
++//__Ordering of graphs in Manage__//
++The graphs in Manage are now ordered according to importance. This means that runtime statistics are sorted by "Process CPU usage" (highest first), queue statistics are sorted by "Messages in queue" (highest first), and HTTP statistics are sorted by "Unsuccessful requests" (highest first).
--//__Event Streaming statistics completion__//
--In this release, we have updated the retrieval of data to ensure that for all models, all environments and all topics this data can be shown to the user so they can properly monitor the environment.
--//__Deployments on next generation architecture__//
--This release fixes several smaller bugs and adds several improvements to the deployment process of the next generation architecture.
++== **Bug Fixes** ==
--//__Clean queues option__//
--This release introduces an option for **admins** to clean queues that remained after a migration towards the next generation runtime architecture. This will make the overview of which queues are "problematic" a much more realistic overview.
++//__Gain the ability again to configure certificates in Deploy Architecture again__//
++In restricting the configuration options on the certificate level in one of our latter releases, it became impossible for normal users to add and edit certificates within Deploy Architecture. To resolve this problem we have now released a fix to resolve this issue, giving people the ability again to add and edit certificates under Deploy Architecture.
--== **Feedback items ** ==
++//__Ensure that differing container configurations deploy the correct configuration__//
++When you run in a multi-runtime configuration and change the actual flows that need to run on container A vs. container B, it happened before that all flows were still being deployed on all runtimes. With this release, we will feed this information correctly to our infrastructure to ensure the correct and configured flows are deployed on the proper containers.
--//__On-premise containers are started upon slot wakeup__//
--With this release, we have added additional functionality to models running in the next generation runtime architecture. With this improvement all on-premise containers are stopped when the cloud slot goes to sleep and are woken up once the slot is woken up in the morning.
++//__Remove queurying options in Manage__//
++To avoid errors and loading problems when analyzing your statistics in Manage, we have removed the option to select a default time range spanning more than seven days. This is to guarantee the stability of the solution and to avoid users getting unnecessary errors.
--//__Resource path is shown to the user__//
--You can now, without downloading, see the resource path of a resource by viewing the metadata of the resource. You can do so by pressing the "eye" icon to view this information.
--
--//__Flow designer improvements__//
--With this release various improvements have been made to the flow designer. Among others we have improved the overview of what an "unused resource" is. You now have the option to define certain resources that are used but cannot be auto-detected by eMagiz to be an "used" resource to avoid confusion.
--
--//__Improved capabilities of a company contact__//
--With this release we have improved the capabilities of a company contact. As of now you can also add users to models belonging to subcompanies below your the company to which you are the company contact.
--
--== **Bug fixes ** ==
--
--//__Optional API parameters are handled correctly__//
--Currently, eMagiz would create the wrong expression for handling optional API parameters. With this release we have improved the expression in such a way that all optional parameters are handled correctly out of the box.
--
--//__Without CDM rights nothing related to any data model can be edited anymore__//
--With this release, we have made sure that nothing related to any data model can be edited without having the proper rights.
--
--//__Improved sorting of Design and Deploy archticture__//
--With this release, we now ensure that both Design and Deploy architecture are sorted in the same manner to avoid confusion when quickly switching between both views.
