5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release is characterized mainly by our efforts to bolster our 3rd generation runtime and all the interactions with it. Furthermore, some smalller fixes and beta features will be released to the community.
5 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last couple of weeks we had our quarterly "hackathon" in which we fixed a series of annoying bugs and introduced many small improvements. On top of that we also finished several additional features for our 3rd generation runtime that will make your life while running on the 3rd generation runtime easier and better manageable. Among the additional features we have the dynamic alerting and the debugger functionality.

7 -== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
7 +== **Dynamic Alerts** ~*~* ==
8 8  
9 -This release will introduce various improvements for our 3rd generation runtime. Below you will find the most noteworthy improvements we made to the 3rd generation runtime and the interaction with it.
9 +{{warning}}Note that depending on the alert this functionality will only work when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
10 10  
11 -//__Migration of JMS backup configuration improved__//
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 "Dynamic Alerts." You can access this functionality via the "Alerting" menu in Manage. Then, with the help of the "Trigger" overview, you can view all triggers on your environment. On the top of the list you will see all "static" alerts as defined by eMagiz. Below that you will see all "dynamic" alerts that you and your fellow teammembers (with sufficient rights) can view, edit and delete.
12 12  
13 -//__Prechecks on Upgrade option made available for 3rd generation runtime__//
13 +We offer alerting on five types.
14 14  
15 -//__Autogenerated exits can be deployed at once__//
15 +* Error message
16 +* Log message
17 +* Queue consumers
18 +* Messages in queue
19 +* Queue throughput
16 16  
17 -//__Code mapping functionality available on 3rd generation runtime__//
21 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--dynamic-alert-trigger-options.png]]
18 18  
19 -//__Improved the performance of deploying or activating a release__//
23 +These five options give you the option to configure more or less the same as you are currently used to when configuring triggers. Once you make a choice for a type you can press the "Next" button to fill in the details of the trigger. One example of how this can look is shown below.
20 20  
21 -//__Failing runtimes won't be restarted indefinetly anymore__//
25 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--dynamic-alert-trigger-input.png]]
22 22  
23 -== **Exportable Release Audit** ~* ==
27 +Once the trigger tab is filled in you can navigate to the "Output" tab to select the recipients for the trigger you are configuring. On top of that you can reduce the number of message at which congestion control is enabled if ten is too high for you.
24 24  
25 -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.
29 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--dynamic-alert-trigger-output.png]]
26 26  
27 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@187-release-blog--flow-version-restore.png]]
31 +== **Debugger ** ~*~* ~* ==
28 28  
29 -{{warning}}Note that the following restrictions apply when exporting an audit document:
30 - * Changes made on definition and transformation level are **not** restored
31 - * You will **not** be able to restore to any flow version that was created before October 17th, 2022
32 - * You will **not** be able to restore your flow to the original version created by eMagiz. You can use the reset function if you want this state back
33 - * Your restored flow version will **not** be automatically committed to Deploy{{/warning}}
33 +{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when the following criteria are met.
34 +* Your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime
35 +* The store item called "3rd generation debugger" is imported in the infra flow of each runtime for which you want the ability to debug
36 +* The beta image is activated
37 +* A new release is created that includes the flow changes and this release is deployed to the environment(s){{/warning}}
34 34  
39 +As with our current offering, we now offer a functionality with which you can debug channels and see them via the eMagiz portal. As stated above to get to this point you need to execute several steps to get your model ready to be "debugged". Once you have done this you can activate the "debug" mode, via Deploy -> Containers for **one** specific flow **per** runtime that is of particular interest to you. Once you have done this you will see a pop-up telling you whether the "debug" mode was indeed activated or not.

42 +
43 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--debugger-action-failure.png]]
44 +
45 +Assuming it was activated correctly you can navigate to Manage -> Explore -> Queue browser and select the emagiz.debug queue to see the messages coming through.
46 +
47 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--debugger-output-queue-browser.png]]
48 +
49 +{{info}}Note the following limitations when working with the debugger.
50 + * Your entire model needs to be migrated to the 3rd generation runtime
51 + * Only **one** flow **per** runtime can be debugged **per** environment
52 + * There is only **one** overview in which **all** debugged messages are shown
53 + * Message payload in excess of 100KB are not shown in the queue browser as they constitute a "large message"
54 + * The debug functionality works for a period of five minutes in which you can use the refresh button to see new messages coming in.
55 + ** After five minutes the debug functionality will be shutdown automatically under water.
56 + ** To see new messages after the five minutes you will have to access the debug functionality again from scratch.{{/info}}
57 +
58 +== **Volume mapping - Network Share** ==
59 +
60 +This release will introduce an additional functionality within our [[volume mapping>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Novice.File based connectivity.novice-file-based-connectivity-volume-mapping-on-premise.WebHome||target="blank"]] offering. With this additional configuration option you can configure a network share and configure it to create a mapping between a network share and a docker volume.

35 35  == **Feedback items ** ==
36 36  
37 37  We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
38 38  
39 -//__Data Sink Refactor__//
40 -We have made some infrastructural changes to how data sink messages are stored and can be retrieved from the portal. Should there be changes needed on your end we will contact your seperately.
70 +//__Improved validation feedback on non-supported WSS4J interceptor __//
71 +We have improved the validation feedback when someone tries to implement a specific WSS4J interceptor implementation.
41 41  
42 -//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
43 -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.
73 +//__Improve help text in flow testing on Java classes__//
74 +We have improved the helptext when you are adding headers to your test message. In this helptext we explain the top five Java classes and how to note them down to make it work in the flow testing functionality and in eMagiz in general.
44 44  
45 -//__Press "Enter" to search on multiple pages__//
46 -In our Daemon Switch release we added functionality that allowed you to press **Enter** to search on the property overview page. With this release we have added this functionality to many more pages across the portal. The complete list is as follows
76 +//__Improved readibility of notification when trying to delete a runtime__//
77 +When you have forgotten one or more steps when deleting a runtime you will be notified by the system on this. With this release we have improved the readibility of the notification.

83 +
84 +//__Check on security header improved for API Gateway__//
85 +We improved the check in the API Gateway through which we validate whether an API caller is authenticated when using the API Key method to secure the API Gateway.
86 +
87 +//__Copy and paste default support objects__//
88 +With this release, you can now copy and paste components without worrying that additional support objects already existing in your target flow are copied over and over into the same flow.
89 +
90 +//__Fix editability of properties when importing store items__//
91 +With this release, you can once again change property names upon importing a store item.
