--**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have done much work for state generation, so that you can derive more information from your data! Examples are enrichment, aggregation, change detection and duplicate detection. State generation functionality is only accessible for models with an add-on state generation license. Next to state generation, several improvements regarding the alignment of components have been made. Moreover, performance improvements and bug fixes have been implemented. Lastly, a change in the metrics storage duration has been performed.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release is characterized mainly by our efforts to bolster our 3rd generation runtime and all its interactions. Furthermore, some minor fixes and beta features will be released to the community.
--== **State Generation** ==
++== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
--//__New components__//
--The following components have been added:
--* Aggregator: reverse of the splitter, used to combine multiple messages into a single one.
--* Infinispan metadata outbound channel adapter: Used to (temporarily) store metadata, which can be used to enrich messages, or make decisions in filters or scripts.
--* Content enricher: used to add properties to the payload of messages, similar to what the header enricher can do for headers.
--* Duplicate detector: Support object used to detect duplicate messages for a certain key on an inbound channel of a flow component. Duplicates can be marked or discarded.
--* Infinispan support objects, supporting the aggregator, metadata outbound channel adapter and content enricher.
++This release will introduce various improvements for our 3rd generation runtime. Below you will find the most noteworthy enhancements we made to the 3rd generation runtime and its interaction with the portal.
--//__SpEL functions & JSON__//
--Added SpEL functions for:
--* Encoding & decoding Base64, Hex and hmac
--* Date retrieval (currentDateTime, currentEpochMilli, currentEpochSecond)
--* Date conversion (DateTime to Epoch, Epoch to DateTime, DateTime formatter and DateTime parser)
--* Added support for SpEL property accessors for XML and JSON, meaning that you can read message payloads in SpEL expressions easily. For example, to retrieve the value for 'id' in the following JSON String: `{"id":"123"}`, this SpEL expression suffices: `payload.id`.
--* Added support for `#JsonPath` usage in SpEL expressions
++//__Migration of JMS backup configuration improved__//
++With this release, the configuration of the JMS backup configuration is improved to prevent potential connectivity issues after migrating to the 3rd generation runtime.
++//__Prechecks on Upgrade option made available for 3rd generation runtime__//
++As with the current runtime architecture, you can now also execute the prechecks before automatically upgrading to the latest cloud template on the 3rd generation runtime architecture.
--== **Metrics Storage Duration** ==
--
--
--
++//__Autogenerated exits can be deployed at once__//
++This release has fixed a bug that prevented you from deploying an exit flow correctly.
--== **Feedback Items** ==
++//__Code mapping functionality available on 3rd generation runtime__//
++As of this release, code mapping functionality is also available for the 3rd generation runtime. This removes the restriction on migrating to the new 3rd generation runtime for our clients that use the code mapping functionality.
--//__Alerting manual pause__//
--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.
++//__Failing runtimes won't be restarted indefinitely anymore__//
++We have put a cap on this behavior to prevent your logs from exploding due to a failing runtime being restarted indefinitely. As of this release, five attempts will be made to restart a failing runtime. If the runtime can not start correctly after these attempts, the runtime will be stopped.
--//__Ordering of graphs in Manage__//
--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).
++== **Exportable Release Audit** ~* ==
--//__UTC times in Grafana panels__//
--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.
++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.
--//__Update flow designer version__//
--The framework used in the flow designer has been updated, improving performance.
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@188-release-blog--exportable-release-audit.png]]
--//__Carwash track TLS versions in logging__//
--A new logging feature will be released, enabling us to make better choices in deprecating old encryption standards.
++{{warning}}Note that the following restrictions apply when exporting an audit document:
++  * Works **only** for releases that are promoted and made active on **Production**
++  * You will **only** see changes made during the **current** calendar year
++  * On the first of April all objects of the **last** calendar year will be **removed**.
++  ** As a consequence you cannot download this information anymore **after** the first of April{{/warning}}
--//__Moving channels in the flow designer__//
--Moving already attached channels in the flow designer has been made sligthly easier.
++== **Feedback items ** ==
--//__Topic sizes description change__//
--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.
++We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
--//__Password change notification__//
--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.
++//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
++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.
--//__Password comparison__//
--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.
++//__Press "Enter" to search on multiple pages__//
++In our Daemon Switch release, we added functionality that allowed you to press **Enter** to search on the property overview page. This release has added this functionality to many more pages across the portal. The complete list is as follows.
--//__Inactive user alerting__//
--Inactivated users are now removed from all alert settings (included “disabled“ settings) to avoid undesirable notifications.

++* Deploy → Properties → History
++* Deploy → User Management → Roles
++* Manage → Error Messages → Error Messages
++* Manage → Error Messages → Flows with Error Messages
++* Manage → Error Messages → Exceptions of Error Messages

++* Manage → Alerts
++* Manage → Triggers
++* Manage → Tags – Cant find (only Gen2)
++* Manage → Notifications
++* Manage → Notification Settings
++* Manage → Data Usage → History
++* Manage → Code mappings → All tabs
--//__Alphabetical sorting on user level in HTTP statistics__//
--Variables in the 3rd generation runtimes HTTP statistics detail pages are now sorted case insensitive.
--
--
--== **Bug Fixes** ==
--
--//__Flow designer styling__//
--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.
--
--//__Partial search for messages__//
--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".
--
--//__Disk usage after cloud template update__//
--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.
--
--//__Error handling migration__//
--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.
