28 28  
29 29  == **Feedback Items** ==
30 30  
31 -//__Improved layout of catalog page in Design__//
32 -We have improved the layout of the API Catalog overview in Design for our API Gateway users. Among others, we have introduced a scrollbar to get a better overview of several operations.
32 +//__Alerting manual pause__//
33 +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.
33 33  
34 -//__Improved layout of "Edit integration" pop-up for API Gateway integrations__//
35 -Currently, the full path of your backend system will be shown when opening the "Edit integration" pop-up on your API Gateway integration.
35 +//__Ordering of graphs in Manage__//
36 +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).
36 36  
37 -//__Additional help texts on Design Architecture__//
38 -We have improved the help texts in Design Architecture concerning the Event Streaming topic storage overview.
38 +//__UTC times in Grafana panels__//
39 +All Grafana panels now show UTC times, which are normally used in eMagiz, instead of local (browser) time zones. This way, it is easier to match graphs with logging events or alerts.
39 39  
40 -//__Improved Audit Trail on several places__//
41 -In several places in the portal, we have improved the audit trail to specify better who changed what at which point in time.
41 +//__Update flow designer version__//
42 +The framework used in the flow designer has been updated to the latest version.
42 42  
43 -//__Removed the erroneous alert on message mapping when having a passthrough API__//
44 -This release removes the erroneous alert people reported on "errors in message mapping" for a passthrough API.
44 +//__Carwash track TLS versions in logging__//
45 +A new logging feature will be released, enabling us to make better choices in deprecating old encryption standards.
45 45  
46 -== **Bug Fixes** ==
47 +//__Moving channels in the flow designer__//
48 +Moving already attached channels in the flow designer has been made sligthly easier.
47 47  
48 -//__Avoid clicking on other components while deleting another__//
49 -To avoid unexpected behavior, we now ensure that nothing can be selected once you see the "deletion" pop-up when you want to remove something in the flow designer.
50 +//__Topic sizes description change__//
51 +In the change description (and History) when altering the topic size of a topic the new and old value were switched around creating confusion, this has been resolved.
50 50  
51 -//__Improved validation feedback in migrating to the next-generation architecture__//
52 -We have improved the validation feedback when migrating to the next-generation architecture.
53 +//__Password change notification__//
54 +When an account password change request is made, even when this fails, a mail is sent to the account owner to inform the owner about the action.
53 53  
54 -//__Make sure that user credentials can be viewed with view rights__//
55 -This release makes sure that the user credentials in Deploy can be considered with view rights and not only when having edit rights.
56 +//__Password comparison__//
57 +When changing a password, it is compared to a list of known database breaches for security. A warning is shown when the password corresponds with a password in the database.
56 56  
57 -//__Refresh behavior within the deployment plan is fixed__//
58 -This release changes the refresh behavior within the deployment plan to show, once more, the "to be installed" flows before the user presses Execute.
59 59  
60 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
61 +
62 +//__Flow designer styling__//
63 +The styling of the flow designer's left component panel has been restructured, solving a rare bug which would break the styling of certain functionalities.
