	6	+**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** As part of our alignment week we also had a hackathon event focusing on a wide array of reported feedback on the portal. The majority of the release blog will be focused on this. On top of that we launch new functionality that makes it easier to transform to JSON, to select infra flows in a release, and makes it possible to deploy multiple agents to a single machine that adheres to specific conditions. Furthermore, several announcements will be made via this release blog (and other channels) to better prepare your model for upcoming major changes.

5		-**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last couple of weeks we worked hard on building several major things that will be released later this Q. On top of that we finished an additional features for our 3rd generation runtime that give you chirurgical precision when doing maintenance on a model. Among the additional features we have a new event streaming graph and some updates to our platform in general.
	8	+== ** Announcement - TLS 1.0 and 1.1 deprecated** ==

9		-{{warning}}Note that depending on the alert this functionality will only work when your JMS server is running on the 3rd generation runtime{{/warning}}
	12	+{{info}}Text{{/info}}
10	10
11		-To enhance the options you have when running into problems or when maintaining your solution in a Production environment, we have added a new feature to our Deploy phase called "Start/Stop Flows". You can access this functionality via the "Deploy Architecture" overview in Deploy. On runtime level you can open the context menu and select the option called "Start/Stop Flows".
	14	+== **Announcement - Spring 6** ==

	16	+Placeholder for info from Jelle
14	14
15		-After selecting the option eMagiz will open a pop-up in which you can stop and start the starting point of each flow that is deployed on that runtime. The effect of this is that no new messages will be processed by the flow but all remaining messages will still be processed by the flow after stopping the flow. To stop a flow you simply select a flow and press the Stop button. To start it again press Start.

	20	+== ** Updated release functionality - Infra flow selection** ==
18	18
19		-{{info}}Only in "Start Editing" mode you can actually start and stop specific flows{{/info}}
	22	+This release will include a major update of our release functionality through which you can configure your release. As of now eMagiz will provide you with the option to visually see changes on infra flow level.

21		-== **Manage overview Event Streaming** ~*~* ==
	24	+[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-216-hack-heaven--infra-flow-comparison.png]]
22	22
23		-To enhance the observability of your event streaming solution while running in the 3rd generation runtime architecture, we have added a new feature to our Manage phase called "Event streaing statistics." You can access this functionality via the "Monitoring" menu in Manage. Then, by clicking on the "Event streaing statistics" overview, you can see metadata information on all your topics. Among others you can see whether data is consumed, on which topic a lot of data is produced, and whether consumers are lagging in consuming data.
	26	+When you are in edit mode you can select a new version via the right-click option as you were used to for other flows.

26	26
27		-== **Feedback items ** ==
	30	+On top of that we have added an title to each context menu that specifies the flow type (i.e. exit connector, container infra, connector infra) for additional clarity while constructing your release.
28	28
29		-We have also solved other feedback items besides the flow designer's critical updates.
	32	+[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-216-hack-heaven--context-menu-title.png]]
30	30
31		-//__Topic configuration calculation__//
32		-With this release we have simplified the configuration of settings on topic level to enforce certain best practices within the portal and at the same time make it easier to configure topics.
	34	+== ** Updated deploy functionality on-premise - Multiple environments selection** ==
33	33
34		-//__Make preparation step in deployment plan visible__//
35		-For a deployment on the 3rd generation runtime to work some preparation work needs to be done by the portal. We have now made this step explicit and part of the deployment plan.
	36	+{{warning}}The following is only applicable under the following conditions:
	37	+ * Windows 2022 server
	38	+ * Atleast one port opened (as a consequence of a hosted web service){{/warning}}
36	36
37		-{{warning}}Make sure to update your deployment plan accordingly to ensure that the preparation step is not forgotten{{/warning}}
	40	+When configuring your Deploy Agent you now have an additional option that can be activated by the user. With the help of this checkbox you unlock the possibility of stabily running multiple deploy agents on one machine.
38	38
39		-//__3rd generation runtime debugger feedback__//
40		-We have improved the user experience of the 3rd generation runtime debugger with this release by solving various feedback items we noticed in the first adoptions of the functionality.
	42	+[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-216-hack-heaven--multiple-environments.png]]
41	41
42		-//__No "Shift key" needed anymore to select multiple items in the flow designer__//
43		-As of now you do not have to hold your "Shift key" when you want to select multiple items in the flow designer. This will make it easier to select parts of flows.
	44	+== **Feedback Items** ==
	45	+//__Easier component selection in flow designer__//
	46	+The area selector through which you can select one or more components has improved to allow for an easier selection of said components when they are displayed closed to the edge of the canvas. By expanding the area you can select the selection of these components will become much easier.
44	44
45		-//__User Management synchronization now happens in one step__//
46		-With this release we have updated the synchronization process between Design and Deploy with regards to User Management. From now on, when you press the "Transfer from design" button both Users and Roles will be synchronized.
	48	+//__Improved handling of optionality in JSON on lists__//
	49	+Previously, eMagiz would always create a JSON array if your data model expected a list. This would lead to unexpected and undesirable behavior of the message as empty arrays are not always accepted by external parties. With this release we have changed the way in which we generate the JSON output should there be an empty list in the output. Consequently the empty list will **not** be part of the output anymore as desired.
47	47
	51	+//__Loading bar when searching for log entries__//
	52	+To indicate to the user that eMagiz is still busy retrieving log entries we have now added a loading bar to the log entry overview upon pressing search.
	53	+
	54	+//__Improved feedback when deleting elements from Capture__//
	55	+To better specify to the user which integration or system the user intends to delete we have improved the text in the confirmation pop-up. This way we can provide more information to the user to avoid mistakes.
	56	+
	57	+//__Enhanced filter options in Manage__//
	58	+With this release we have added filter options on both the Alerting tab and the Trigger configuration pop-up. This results in being able to filter on Status (Alerting) and Queues, Topics, Recipients, and more (Trigger configuration pop-up) in these places.
	59	+
	60	+//__Copy property names from Create__//
	61	+This release unlocks the possibility to easily copy the name of a property placeholder so it can be used whilst deploying.
	62	+
	63	+
	64	+== **Bug Fixes** ==
	65	+//__Queue name validation__//
	66	+The validation regarding undesired spaces for components that use a queue name has been improved. Specifically, users are now prevented from creating a queue name with a space in the queue name when editing this in the Create phase in the Flow Designer.
	67	+
	68	+[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-215-tiny-tales-queue-name-validation.png]]
	69	+
	70	+//__Removal of onramp__//
	71	+An issue has been fixed where removing an onramp that was previously linked to a combined entry was impossible in the Create phase.
	72	+
	73	+//__eMagiz login__//
	74	+In the login screen, users can now press "enter" to log in when the username field is selected. Previously, this was only the case for the password field.
