5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have focused on wrapping up the previous quarter and starting the new one. When this happens, we go silent for a few weeks to plan for the upcoming quarter during our PI rituals. This time we added the famous "Hackathon" to the end of the PI week so we could start the Easter break with excellent spirit after solving several smaller feedback items and bugs reported by you. Several of those stories will be included in this and the upcoming release. On top of that, we introduce various improvements to our API Gateway pattern and our 3rd generation runtime architecture. Subsequently, we will release a new runtime image supporting the multiple improvements.
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 +== **Feedback Items** ==
8 8  
9 -With this release we bring an improved version of the release properties functionality. With the introduction of the 3rd generation runtime the way properties can be updated and when they need to be available for the solution to start up has changed compared to the current runtime architecture. More on that can be found [[here>>Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3.WebHome||target= "blank"]]
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.
10 10  
11 -== **API improvements** ==
12 +//__Removed outdated properties when deploying on the new generation architecture stack__//
13 +We have removed two specific outdated properties from the configuration when deploying on the new generation architecture stack.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 in order to connect to a Kafka cluster but have become obsolete once you migrate.
12 12  
13 -//__Improved auto-generated error handling__//
14 -When you create a new operation in your API gateway, eMagiz will now automatically generate the correct schemas, HTTP codes, and examples for this operation based on industry standards.
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}}
15 15  
16 -//__Switch default message format__//
17 -We have improved the logic when you switch the message format of your gateway message from XML to JSON or vice versa. As a result, the Swagger file will be changed accordingly. Once you update the relevant flow in Create and deploy the solution, the Swagger UI will automatically match the expected result.
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.
18 18  
19 -//__Re-using elements in gateway message__//
20 -This release improves how the examples and schemas in Swagger and the Flow Testing functionality are generated when certain elements repeatedly appear in different places within one specific gateway message.
20 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
21 21  
22 -//__Improved naming of API operations when adding integrations to Create__//
23 -Previously when you added API operations to the Create phase, the HTTP operation (i.e., POST, PUT, GET) was not visible to a user. As a result, it became tough for a user to discern between specific operations once multiple of them were used on one resource (i.e., Order, Invoice, Lead). To clarify this for the user, the display name defined in Design (instead of Capture) is now used within this overview for these operations.
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).
24 24  
25 -== **3rd generation improvements** ==
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.
26 26  
27 -//__Update of the static alerting engine__//
28 -In this release, we have updated the static alerting engine that determines when one of the static alerts, as defined by eMagiz, should be triggered (or not). This change will improve the performance of the solution and will ensure that the alerts are activated correctly.
29 -
30 -//__Add "Data pipeline" functionality__//
31 -This release introduces the "data pipeline" functionality to the 3rd generation runtime. This removes another blockage for models waiting on this before migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.
32 -
33 -//__Fix related to the debugger__//
34 -This release introduces a fix that allows users to debug a flow once the toggle "Send error messages to eMagiz" is activated.
35 -
36 -{{warning}}To make use of this bug fix, you need to be on the latest runtime image{{/warning}}
37 -
38 -//__Improved migration process__//
39 -This release introduced a fix that allows a user to migrate event processors with custom error handling without manual intervention.
40 -
41 -//__Deployment plan change__//
42 -In this release, the prepare release step will not start automatically anymore. This prevents the user from waiting for this action to be finished before they can continue deploying the solution to their environment.
43 -
44 -{{warning}}Should you be interested in migrating your model to our new 3rd generation architecture, don't hesitate to contact us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:productmanagement@emagiz.com]] or read our [[documentation>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] on the subject.{{/warning}}
45 -
46 -== **Feedback items ** ==
47 -
48 -//__License Tracker improvements__//
49 -With this release, we have added several new features available to purchase. On top of that, additional information on the license, such as adding notes and seeing the data sink packets, is now available.
50 -
51 -//__Ability to view the message definition for a topic__//
52 -Currently, you can easily navigate to the message definition of a topic via the context menu in Design, even if there is no event processor linked to the topic.
53 -
54 -//__Restricted access for uploading custom certificates to endpoints__//
55 -To improve our cloud offerings' general security and prevent users from uploading the wrong certificates, we have now restricted access to this view to ensure that only the administrator can execute this change. This allows for a discussion between the team implementing the solution and eMagiz before actions are taken.
56 -
57 -== **Bug fixes ** ==
58 -
59 -//__Improved deletion behavior for enumerations__//
60 -To prevent that eMagiz will incorrectly delete enumeration lists when you press a "Cancel" button, we have improved the deletion behavior when viewing enumerations in the Create phase of eMagiz.
61 -
62 -//__Prevent "async" api operations__//
63 -With this release, we have removed the ability to select the "async" option when the default message format is API Management.
64 -
65 -//__Importing a response definition broke the request definition__//
66 -Currently, importing a response definition breaks the request definition. With this release, we have changed this behavior, ensuring that only the response definition is changed when importing and not the request definition.
67 -
68 -//__Removing a flow does not update the API "all-entry" anymore__//
69 -When you removed a flow from Create, the API Gateway all-entry received a new version of the flow. With this release, we have changed this behavior so that this only happens when the flow you remove is an API-related flow and not when it is a messaging or event streaming flow.
70 -
71 -//__Stop deployment plan when a property is missing__//
72 -Currently, the execution of your deployment plan continues when eMagiz notices a missing property. As this is confusing for a user and not desirable, we have updated the logic to ensure that when this happens, the execution stops. This allows you to fill in the properties, and once filled in, you can continue with the remainder of the deployment plan.
73 -
74 -//__Cap stack trace of error messages and log entries__//
75 -To prevent that enormous stack traces of error messages and log entries need to be processed by various systems, we have now limited what is kept so only the relevant information is shown to the user.
