5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last couple of weeks, we worked hard on API improvements and 3rd generation improvements for you all to see. Amongst the API improvements we now introduce the option to define REST/XML structures in your API gateway for your API callers to call. This brings more options to the user community in setting up the API Gateway structure in accordance with the needs and desires of the client. On top of that we have released several 3rd generation improvements. Amongst these we will add WS-Security functionality to the runtime and improvements on viewing release properties. Furthermore we have released new cloud templates to improve security in our current runtime and improve the auto-healing for 3rd generation runtime cloud slots. Last but not least we release the first adaptation of "State generation" that can be implemented with the help of us in your model. In the upcoming monts we will gather feedback from actual client cases and improve on this functionality.
5 +**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.

9 -{{warning}}Note that a decision needs to be made to select XML or JSON as default format for all your operations hosted in your API Gateway.{{/warning}}
9 +//__New components__//
10 +The following components have been added:
11 +* Aggregator: reverse of the splitter, used to combine multiple messages into a single one.
12 +* Infinispan metadata outbound channel adapter: used to (temporarily) store metadata, which can be used to enrich messages, or make decisions in filters or scripts.
13 +* Content enricher: used to add properties to the payload of messages, similar to what the header enricher can do for headers.
14 +* 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.
15 +* Infinispan support objects, supporting the aggregator, metadata outbound channel adapter and content enricher.
10 10  
11 -To enhance your options when developing an API gateway that can be called by others we now introduce the option to select XML as the default message format on your API Gateway pattern. You can do this under Design -> Settings -> API Management. In here you can select and edit the settings.
17 +//__SpEL functions & JSON__//
18 +Added SpEL functions for:
19 +* Encoding & decoding Base64, Hex and hmac.
20 +* Date retrieval (currentDateTime, currentEpochMilli, currentEpochSecond).
21 +* Date conversion (DateTime to Epoch, Epoch to DateTime, DateTime formatter and DateTime parser).
12 12  
13 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@193-release-blog--rest-xml-default-setting.png]]
23 +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`.
14 14  
15 -Every operation made after this decision will default to XML (or JSON which is still the default). Should you want to support JSON on some operations and XML on others you can select a default and manually correct the mediaType for the requests and responses to which it matters.
25 +Added support for `#JsonPath` usage in SpEL expressions.

27 +//__New image version 2.0.0__//
28 +The above functionalities are features of the new image version 2.0.0. Important to note is that the library used for Code Mappings has been changed. Changed the library used for Code Mappings. Any customer with Gen3 runtimes and code mappings is required to reset their infra flows prior to deploying on image 2.0.0.

19 -==**Cloud Template R23 - Single Lane** ==
30 +//__Component pages__//
31 +Pages to add the new components have been created. Forms have been created nicely with proper help texts. The EHCache cache manager has been removed.

21 -This release introduces a new cloud template for all our customers running in a single-lane setup in the 2nd generation runtime. This cloud template will update some specific security settings on these cloud slots. The complete release notes on the cloud template can be found [[here>>doc:Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.WebHome||target="blank"]]
33 +== **Metrics Storage Duration** ==
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.

43 +//__Save and cancel buttons__//
44 +The Save and Cancel buttons have been placed slightly further apart from each other to avoid misclicking.

31 -== **WS-Security on the 3rd generation runtime** ~*~* ==
46 +//__User session times__//
47 +Manage - Monitoring: 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.
32 32  
33 -To further improve our offering on the 3rd generation runtime we now also have added the necessary functionality to allow you to call SOAP endpoints while utilizing WS-Security as well as securing your hosted SOAP endpoint through WS-Security protocols.

34 34  
35 -== **State Generation ~*~* ==
51 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
36 36  
37 -With this release we introduce our first "State Generation" functionality to our user community. After rigorous internal testing and use we have now made a stride to also make it available to the user community on specific use case. In the following months we will gather feedback on this to further improve and release it in a simpler and more user friendly way to the user community.
