5		-**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have crossed our t's and dotted our i's on the release properties functionality that will impact the day to day life of every user working within the platform. The focus of the release blog will consequently also be on this subject. On top of that we have several additional smaller feedback item coming from our hackathon efforts that are now released to you.
	5	+**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have processed additional feedback on the release properties in the last few weeks. On top of that, we have improved the error handling and manageability of our new generation monitoring stack.

7		-== **Release Properties** ==
8		-As of this release, we will introduce a new way of handling properties for all our clients. This change intends to solidify the relationship between a release and a property value. Before, in the current generation architecture, timing of changing properties was crucial to avoid costly mistakes on Production. On top of that it was not always clear whether a property value was indeed updated as it was not linked to something that was deployed. These considerations let us to change the property management behavior not only on our next-generation architecture but also on our current generation architecture. Having said that, there are several key changes compared to the current way of managing your properties. Most notably among these are:
9		-
10		-* The current properties tab in Deploy will disappear. The new overview of the properties (and their values) can be found under the "Create phase release" in Deploy -> Releases
11		-* Property placeholders (i.e. the names of properties as given in Create) are now automatically created for you. This to avoid mistakes when filling them in.
12		-* When adding or editing a property you can *now* select multiple runtimes for which the property applies. This is mainly beneficial for those running in a double lane setup or having a distributed landscape of containers.
13		-* A, for most, new concept of a "property release" is introduced. With the help of this functionality you can easily change a property on Production without having to create a completely new release in Test and promote it to the Production environment.

24		-== ** Manage - Next generation graphs improvements ** ==
25		-As of this release, we will create a condensed view of your metrics when zooming out in the Manage phase graphs. This will significantly improve the performance of the manage graphs as we retrieve and show less fine-grained information when zooming out.

29	29	== **Feedback Items** ==
30	30
31		-//__Improved editability when testing in eMagiz wihout Edit rights in Create__//
32		-Without having edit rights in the Create phase you could already do a lot on the level of flow tests in eMagiz. However, there were some oversights we missed during the implementation. These have been fixed allowing those without edit rights to now also change the name and description of the test case.
	9	+//__Improved check on nested property placeholders__//
	10	+To avoid problems when using nested property placeholders in your configuration, we have added additional checks to identify these nested properties as missing if they are indeed missing.
33	33
34		-//__Improved auditability on Deploy Architecture__//
35		-To improve the audtiability on Deploy Architecture we now also log when someone with Admin rights changes specific functions on this level (i.e. Fixed IP).
	12	+//__Removed outdated properties when deploying on the new generation architecture stack__//
	13	+We have removed two specific outdated properties from the configuration when deploying on the new generation architecture stack. The properties in question were necessary before connecting to a Kafka cluster but have become obsolete once you migrate.
36	36
37		-//__Test your own exported work__//
38		-We have now made it possible to test your own exported work to the Store before it gets approved. This will increase the quality of store items we have, and our partners, have on offer within the store.
	15	+{{warning}}Should you still use the properties called "emagiz.runtime.name" and "emagiz.runtime.environment" **after** successfully migrating the flow in question to the next generation, please get in touch with us before deploying.{{/warning}}

	17	+//__Improved performance Manage Dashboards__//
	18	+We have improved the efficiency of retrieving the data shown in the Manage Dashboards for the next-generation architecture.
41	41
42		-//__Improved Audit Trail on several places__//
43		-In several places in the portal, we have improved the audit trail to specify better who changed what at which point in time.
44		-
45		-//__Removed the erroneous alert on message mapping when having a passthrough API__//
46		-This release removes the erroneous alert people reported on "errors in message mapping" for a passthrough API.
47		-
48	48	== **Bug Fixes** ==
49	49
50		-//__Avoid clicking on other components while deleting another__//
51		-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.
	22	+//__Errors with long stack traces or long message histories will now also show in eMagiz__//
	23	+We have fixed a bug that could cause an error message to be lost between the flow and the Manage phase of eMagiz. This happened in situations where either the stack trace or the message history was very long. To ensure this new functionality is applied to your flows, create a new release and deploy it to your environment(s).
52	52
53		-//__Improved validation feedback in migrating to the next-generation architecture__//
54		-We have improved the validation feedback when migrating to the next-generation architecture.
	25	+//__Moving runtimes from on-premise to the cloud will not result in a broken container anymore__//
	26	+We have fixed a bug that caused specific runtimes to deploy on-premises but later migrated to the cloud, not to start up. By fixing this bug, you have more flexibility in moving containers around when running in a hybrid configuration.
55	55
56		-//__Make sure that user credentials can be viewed with view rights__//
57		-This release makes sure that the user credentials in Deploy can be considered with view rights and not only when having edit rights.
58		-
59		-//__Refresh behavior within the deployment plan is fixed__//
60		-This release changes the refresh behavior within the deployment plan to show, once more, the "to be installed" flows before the user presses Execute.
