--**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** It has been a while since our last deployment on the 9th of December. As a result we have finished up a lot of new improvements to our 3rd generation runtime offering and fixed a variety of annoying bugs as well as some small improvements. This release is characterized by the major steps we took to release several major features on our 3rd generation runtime among which are the queue browser and message redelivery functionality.
++**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, several improvements for pop-ups have been made so that more user friendly messages are shown that reflect actual behaviour. Moreover, formatting and alignment improvements have been made to improve the user journey. Lastly, we have worked on some more feedback items and several more bug fixes have been done.
--== **Queue Browser** ==
++== **Pop-up Improvements** ==
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
++//__Property releases__//
++When a new property release is created, this property release can now not only be viewed but also release properties can be deleted.
--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 the "Queue browser". You can access this functionality via the "Explore" menu option in Manage. With the help of the queue browser you can, as the name suggests, browse your queue.
++[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-213-joyful-journeys-property-release.png]]
--To do so, we offer two options within this functionality. We have the Explore function and we have the Wiretap function. When selecting a queue and opting for the Explore option you get a live view of what data is currently present on the queue. When selecting the Wiretap functionality you automatically wiretap your queue and are presented with copies (on a special queue) of your actual message that pass through the queue from the moment you pressed the Wiretap button.
++//__Runtime deletion__//
++When deleting a runtime, the error message is more descriptive. The error message will now include the names of the flows that run on the container.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-overview.png]]
++//__Wiretap & debug error messages__//
++The error messages that may be displayed when using wiretaps and the debugger have been improved, these are now more user friendly.
--After selecting the queue and choosing the option eMagiz will show you the list of messages (oldest first) that are currently on the queue (Explore option) or that passed the queue since the moment you activate the option (Wiretap option). For each message you have various options at your disposal.
++//__Action messages__//
++The formatting of action messages regarding changes in retention bytes/hours has been improved. The action message will now display the correct, actual behaviour.
--* Delete the message from the queue (Explore option)
--  ** This means throwing away live data which can be helpful in a test or acceptance environment where you inadvertedly put a lot of messages on a queue.
--* Clear message from the wiretap queue (Wiretap option)
--  ** Once you are done with the analysis of a certain message in the wiretap functionality you can clear it from the overview so it does not clutter the view anymore
--* Refresh messages list (both options)
--  ** By pressing this button you can refresh the list of messages that are displayed to you. Note that the list is sorted in such a way that the oldest messages are shown first
--* Save as test message
--  ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create. Note that we link the message to the corresponding flow if we can. Should we not be able to do so we link the message to your model so you can still use it in the flow testing functionality.
--* Download
--  ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.
++== **Formatting & Alignments** ==
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-explore-overview.png]]
++//__Input fields__//
++Multiple input fields have been updated such that they expand when the amount of characters exceeds the default size. These updates were done to cater to large expressions.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--queue-browser-wiretap-overview.png]]
++//__UI improvements__//
++UI improvements for static input components have been done and the tooltip for optional/required toggles has been improved.
--== **Message Redelivery ** ==
++//__Component changes reversion__//
++In the flow designer a bug could occur where the changes to a component would be reverted if the editing pop-up would be kept open for some minutes without having saved the changes yet. This has been fixed.
--{{warning}}Note that this functionality only works when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime and the functionality is enabled for you environment.{{/warning}}
++//__State generation statistics__//
++The state generation graphs will now show the correct number of cache hits and misses.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--message-redelivery-overview.png]]
++//__Queue browser timestamps__//
++All timestamp formatting in the queue browser is now aligned to yyyy-MM-dd  HH:mm:ss.SSS.
--Just as with our current offering we now offer our message redelivery functionality for our 3rd generation architecture. To enhance the user experience we have placed this functionality as well under the "Explore" option in Manage. When selecting the message redelivery option you will see all messages that are currently in need to be redelivered (as an error occurred).
++//__Addition and deletion of internal recipients__//
++Internal recipients are now added and deleted correctly. Before, an internal recipient could be added and thereafter deleted automatically when refreshing the page.
--Just as in the current functionality you can select a specific message and retry (or delete) it. The same can be done for all messages at once. Following that you can still see the linked error message as you could before.
++== **Feedback Items** ==
--On top of that we have added some additional functionality.
++//__Update flows__//
++In Create > Resources, a button "Update flows" has been added to update versions of all flows in which a resource is used.
--* Search option
--  ** Original queue name
--  ** Original message ID (which can be found as a header called jms_messageid in the error message view)
--* Save as test message
--  ** By pressing this button you can save the message and use it in our flow testing functionality in Create.
--* Download
--  ** By pressing this button you can download the message and use it outside of the tooling should that be needed.
++//__Q&A forum search__//
++The option to search by pressing the Enter key has been added to the Q&A forum.
--[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@190-release-blog--message-redelivery-detail-overview.png]]
++//__Memory settings__//
++It is now possible to change the memory settings of a newly added container before pressing "Apply to environment".
++//__Runtime validation__//
++Validation for runtimes that are moved from on premises to the cloud or vice versa has been improved.
--== **3rd generation runtime bolstering** ==
++//__Runtime overview image versions__//
++Insight into intended and actual deployments has been improved. If the release version number on runtimes is different compared with the release, this is shown in the runtime overview.
--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.
++== **Bug Fixes** ==
--//__Define memory settings for on-premise runtimes from Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release, you are now able to define the memory settings (and therefore the memory limits) of your on-premise runtimes in the same manner as cloud runtimes. In all cases you can now define and change the memory settings via Deploy Architecture. In contrast to how these values are actualized for cloud runtimes you need to create a new release and deploy it to actualize the changes on-premise.
++//__Removal of onramp__//
++We fixed an issue where it was not possible to remove the last onramp linked to a splitted entry (that was an all-entry before).
--//__Empty runtime feedback when deploying a release (or setting the release as active)__//
--To prevent that you are not being able to deploy a release to your environment due to a mismatch between what is in your release and in Deploy Architecture we have now added a feedback pop-up when deploying a release that notifies you for which runtimes there is a mismatch between your release and Deploy Architecture.
++//__Runtime statistics details__//
++We fixed an issue where heap memory usage data was accumulating when zooming out in the runtime statistics details dashboards.
--//__Auto-fill namespaces for SOAP hosted webservices__//
--Based on your configuration in Design eMagiz will now auto-fill the namespace when you host a SOAP web service. This avoids any potential problems in validating messages.
++//__Deployment prechecks__//
++During deployments, prechecks can be executed on runtimes level for runtimes that still have to be deployed. These prechecks can be executed via Deploy > Architecture.
--//__Updated H2 database setting__//
--As of this release, we have improved the configuration of our H2 databases that are used within eMagiz. This new setting will ensure that the runtime controls when the H2 database is shut down.
--
--{{warning}}If you already migrated your runtime, you should execute a "Reset" action on the infra flow to get these changes in your model{{/warning}}
--
--//__Runtime settings option added to context menu on runtime level Deploy Architecture__//
--As a replacement of the current HTTP settings context menu we have added a new menu item called runtime settings. On top of being able to configure your HTTP settings (which you need to define for a hosted web service) you now also can define whether the control bus needs to work for this runtime.
--
--//__Deploy Agent option added to context menu on machine level Deploy Architecture__//
--With this release, we have added a context menu item that allows user to deploy the agent that is needed to run your 3rd generation architecture on-premise. For more information on how to install this please check out this [[microlearning>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Expert Level.Solution Architecture Store.expert-solution-architecture-onpremises-installguide||target="blank"]]
--
--//__Added "Reset" functionality__//
--With this release, a new functionality has been added for 3rd generation runtimes that allows you to combine several steps into one action, called "Reset runtime." The effect of this action is the same as it currently is in the legacy runtime.
--
--== **Feedback items ** ==
--
--We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
--
--//__Improved naming convention on Store related pages__//
--We have improved various display names using the merge functionality within our store offering.
--
--//__Update security protocols for our internal architecture__//
--Parts of our internal infrastructure (i.e., docs.emagiz.com) have been updated to adhere to the latest security standards.
--
--//__Improved read-only description for "if exists" constructions in Transformations__//
--To make it clear what the "if exists" check does while not being in "Start Editing" mode, we have improved the description so users without edit rights or without wanting to enter the "Start Editing" mode can read and interpret what the check does.
--
--
--== **Bug fixes ** ==
--
--//__Decent validation feedback when not filling in the property value__//
--We have fixed the validation feedback you get when not filling in the property value using the "Check properties" functionality.
--
--//__Incorrect resource locations__//
--We have fixed several instances where the resource location was not generated correctly in the 3rd generation runtime.
--
--//__Apply to environment in User Management performance improvement__//
--We have improved the performance of updating User Management on your environment. This way, the update functionality is more stable and faster.
--
  == **Fancy Forum Answers** ==
  As always, this is a gentle reminder to ask questions via the Q&A forum. The Q&A forum is available in the eMagiz iPaaS portal, so we can all benefit from the knowledge within the community. For some inspiration, take a look at these forum answers:
