--**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.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** With this release we will release several impactful features and enablers to our community. Among others the next phase of the eMagiz Store will become publicly available. This means that you can now import data models and transformation on top of system messages in Design and accelerators in Create. Furthermore, we will launch a new Beta functionality through some of our clients that will enable you to restore your flow to a previous version.
--== **Dynamic Alerts** ~*~* ==
++== **Store - Next phase** ==
--{{warning}}Note that depending on the alert this functionality will only work when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
++This release will introduce the next phase of the Store to our whole community. With this new functionality you can now import data model messages (i.e. CDM, API Gateway Data model or Event Streaming data model) and transformations. This way connecting to standardized systems such as Exact Online, Microsoft Graph, Salesforce and others will become even easier.
--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.
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@187-release-blog--current-store-offering.png]]
--We offer alerting on five types.
++{{info}}For more information on the Store please check out this [[course>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Novice.eMagiz Store.WebHome||target="blank"]]. As a reminder you can find all documentation on all available Store content published by eMagiz [[here>>doc:Main.eMagiz Store.WebHome||target="blank"]].{{/info}}

++== **New eMagiz Mendix Connector** ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--dynamic-alert-trigger-options.png]]
++With this release we introduce a new version of the eMagiz Mendix Connector. This version (6.0.0) will work both with the current runtime architecture and the new runtime architecture making the migration from the current runtime architecture to the new runtime architecture easier. The new version of the eMagiz Mendix Connector can be found in the Mendix Marketplace and in the eMagiz portal.
--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.
++{{info}}Migrating the runtime from the eMagiz portal works the same as for any other runtime. The migration path to migrate can be found [[here>>doc:Main.eMagiz Support.Migration Paths.migration-path-emagiz-runtime-generation-3.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--dynamic-alert-trigger-input.png]]
++== **Flow version restore** ~* ==
--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.
++On top of that we will also launch a new Beta feature to the community that allows you to restore your flow to a previous version. This way you can quickly undo changes made that were incorrect.

++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@187-release-blog--flow-version-restore.png]]
--== **Debugger ** ~*~* ~* ==
++{{warning}}Note, that the following restrictions apply when restoring to a previous version:
++  * Changes made on definition and transformation level are **not** restored
++  * You will **not** be able to restore to any flow version that was created before October 17th, 2022
++  * 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
++  * Your restored flow version will **not** be automatically committed to Deploy{{/warning}}
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when the following criteria are met.
--* Your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime
--* The store item called "3rd generation debugger" is imported in the infra flow of each runtime for which you want the ability to debug
--* A feature flag needs to be enabled on your model
--* A new release is created that includes the flow changes and this release is deployed to the environment(s){{/warning}}
--
--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.

--
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--debugger-action-failure.png]]
--
--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.
--
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@191-release-blog--debugger-output-queue-browser.png]]
--
--{{info}}Note the following limitations when working with the debugger.
--  * Your entire model needs to be migrated to the 3rd generation runtime
--  * Only **one** flow **per** runtime can be debugged **per** environment
--  * There is only **one** overview in which **all** debugged messages are shown
--  * Message payload in excess of 100KB are not shown in the queue browser as they constitute a "large message"
--  * The debug functionality works for a period of five minutes in which you can use the refresh button to see new messages coming in.
--    ** After five minutes the debug functionality will be shutdown automatically under water.
--    ** To see new messages after the five minutes you will have to access the debug functionality again from scratch.{{/info}}

--== **Volume mapping - Network Share** ==
--
--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||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.

  == **Feedback items ** ==
  We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
--//__Show status on machine level under Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release we are now able to show the status of the machine when opening the "Details" overview on machine level in Deploy -> Architecture.
++//__Improved help texts Kafka component__//
++TBA
--//__Improved validation feedback on non-supported WSS4J interceptor __//
--We have improved the validation feedback when someone tries to implement a specific WSS4J interceptor implementation.
++//__Improved warning message when Message redelivery cannot be properly executed__//
++TBA
--//__Improve help text in flow testing on Java classes__//
--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.
++//__See Flow Designer errors on the Create overview__//
++TBA
--//__Improved readibility of notification when trying to delete a runtime__//
--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.
++== **Bug Fixes** ==
--//__Improved sorting of missing properties overview__//
--We have improved the sorting on the missing properties overview you will encounter when activating the "check properties" option.
++//__Update Swagger File when changing order of entities in gateway message__//
