34		-Manage - Monitoring: We will change the retention of monitoring data of different environments. For minute level data, it will be kept for test, acceptance and production environments for 5, 7 and 30 days respectively. Then the minute level data will be reduced to hour level data then will be stored for test, acceptance and production for 3, 6 and 12 months respectively.

40		-//__Alerting manual pause__//
41		-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.
	40	+//__Import from store__//
	41	+The button 'Import from Store' in Design will directly open the store instead of showing a pop asking whether the store should be opened.
42	42
43		-//__Ordering of graphs in Manage__//
44		-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).
	43	+//__Save and cancel buttons placement__//
	44	+The save and cancel buttons have been placed slightly further apart from each other to avoid misclicking.
45	45
46		-//__UTC times in Grafana panels__//
47		-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.
	46	+//__User session times__//
	47	+The user session times for 3rd generation runtime dashboards have been extended, so that the user is not thrown out of the model when using the Manage phase for longer than an hour.
48	48
49		-//__Update flow designer version__//
50		-The framework used in the flow designer has been updated, improving performance.
	49	+//__Cancel and next buttons order//
	50	+The order of the cancel and next buttons when creating a new trigger has been changed to increase alignment across the platform. Now, all cancel buttons are placed on the right of a 'next' or 'save' button.
51	51
52		-//__Carwash track TLS versions in logging__//
53		-A new logging feature will be released, enabling us to make better choices in deprecating old encryption standards.
	52	+//__Data sink page__//
	53	+The data sink page has been moved to the “Explore” tab.
54	54
55		-//__Moving channels in the flow designer__//
56		-Moving already attached channels in the flow designer has been made sligthly easier.
	55	+//__Unused images removal__//
	56	+When a release is removed, the related unused images in the on-premises machines will be removed as well.
57	57
58		-//__Topic sizes description change__//
59		-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.
	58	+//__Flow Designer performance__//
	59	+Performance improvements for the Flow Designer have been implemented.
60	60
61		-//__Password change notification__//
62		-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.
	61	+//__Properties with special characters__//
	62	+When a user would migrate to gen3 and deploy their release containing properties with special characters, certain flows could not find the correct values to properties anymore or could not find the properties altogether. With this release, special characters such as a backslash do not break properties after deployment.
63	63
64		-//__Password comparison__//
65		-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.
	64	+//__Hidden flow fragements__//
	65	+When importing items from the store, flow fragments that are hidden in design will be listed under the versions in create.
66	66
67		-//__Inactive user alerting__//
68		-Inactivated users are now removed from all alert settings (included “disabled“ settings) to avoid undesirable notifications.
	67	+//__Resources disappearances__//
	68	+Resources would disappear in the flow designer when pressing Cancel on selecting a new resource. With this release, resources without a name will not trigger error messages when users select components.
69	69
70		-//__Alphabetical sorting on user level in HTTP statistics__//
71		-Variables in the 3rd generation runtimes HTTP statistics detail pages are now sorted case insensitive.
	70	+//__Error channel for all inbounds__//
	71	+If there is no custom error handling, Gen3 migration would set the error channel to “errorChannel” only for the first inbound in an entry flow.
	72	+We added a migration step, such that the error channel is set to “errorChannel” of all inbounds in a flow if the custom error handling is set to false.
72	72
	74	+//__Highlighting resources__//
	75	+The performance of highlighting resources of selected components is improved in Read only mode.
73	73
74	74	== **Bug Fixes** ==
75	75
76		-//__Flow designer styling__//
77		-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.
	79	+//__Topic and event-processor names__//
	80	+The styling of the event streaming canvas in the Create and Deploy phases has been altered slightly to make topic and event-processor names more readable.
78	78
79		-//__Partial search for messages__//
80		-It is now possible to search on messages partially in Manage Monitoring. For example, a search for Uptime can be done by searching for "up" "time" "ptim".
	82	+//__System alignment__//
	83	+The positioning of Systems across Design, Create and Deploy phases are now synchronized to the position of their respective System in the Capture phase. So, systems are aligned regarding positioning across all phases.
81	81
82		-//__Disk usage after cloud template update__//
83		-In the last cloud template update there was an issue with disk performance. This has been resolved in this release. You can manually upgrade your cloud template, or rely on automatic updates.
	85	+//__Error checking__//
	86	+Besides checking error header, the error trigger is now configured to check if an error message contains a term.
84	84
85		-//__Error handling migration__//
86		-If there is no custom error handling, when migrating to Gen3, the error channel to “errorChannel” is only created for the first inbound in an entry flow. This has been fixed by adding a migration step, where we set the error channel of all inbounds in a flow to “errorChannel” if the custom error handling is set to false.
	88	+//__Alerting__//
	89	+For gen3 models, you will no longer receive alert messages for every error message, every log message of 'level' ERROR, and for memory usage above 80%.
	90	+For gen3 models with event streaming, the threshold to receive the 'Topic approaching maximum size' alert has been increased from 95% of configured size used to 110%.
	91	+The gen3 configurable trigger for error messages has been extended with the option to check whether the 'last-exception' message contained a certain text. This can be combined with the header-value match.
87	87
	93	+//__Unused containers__//
	94	+Containers are set inactive when they are unused and removed in Design.
	95	+
	96	+//__Error popups when promoting a release version__//
	97	+We fixed an issue that a lot of error popups were shown when you promoted a release version to a next environment.
	98	+
	99	+//__Memory leak__//
	100	+A memory leak when using gen 3 metrics has been fixed.
