5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked hard on improving various aspects of our home. Among others we have improved the logging, alerting, and security of our next-generation architecture. On top of that we have improved the inner workings of the store and the certificate management for those of us using the Event Streaming pattern.
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release, we have a new version of our eMagiz Mendix connector available, that will support Mendix version 10 and higher. Furthermore, we have improved our functionality to enable users to seamlessly import OpenAPI specifications with URL paths of up to 300 characters in length. Lastly, we have done many bug fixes, one of which will ensure that SFTP sessions will be closed again after completion. For this fix, a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V304.WebHome||target="blank"]] has been published.

7 -== **Next generation improvements and bug fixes** ==
8 +== **Feedback Items** ==
8 8  
9 -//__Enhanced overview of the HTTP Statistics__//
10 -As of now all resources that have been called atleast once since deploying them will now show up in the left-bottom graph of the HTTP Statistics. This will make it easier to see whether a particular operation was called within a timeframe. On top of that it makes comparing data on various operations easier. In here you can also filter on one (by pressing the + icon) or more by clicking on the filter icon. In case you want to sort the table in a different manner you can click on the name of the column on which you want to sort.
10 +//__eMagiz Mendix connector__//
11 +We released a new version of our eMagiz Mendix connector that will support Mendix version 10 and higher.
11 11  
12 -//__Reason why runtime cannot start is now in the vast majority of cases reported back__//
13 -In this release, we have improved the way we report failures during startup of runtimes. This will ensure that it becomes much easier to pinpoint what went wrong upon startup.
13 +//__External machine agents__//
14 +We have added functionality that allows the user to (auto-) update their external (on-premise) machine agents on the current generation architecture from the portal. With future releases of environment templates, your on-premise agents may also be updated.
14 14  
15 -{{info}}Note that this fix is part of a new runtime image for the next-generation runtimes. The release notes of this can be found [[here>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
16 +//__Improved OpenAPI import__//
17 +The path length that eMagiz supports when importing OpenAPI specifications is now increased to a maximum of 300 characters.
16 16  
17 -//__Forced congestion control__//
18 -To reduce the number of repeating mails within a 10 minute window we have now forced congestion control on all alerts generated via the platform.
19 +//__Flow test stack trace__//
20 +If a flow test creates a log line with level ‘Warning or ‘Error’ and there is a stack trace created, then we show the stack trace inside the log message on a separate tab.
19 19  
20 -//__Unused images are cleaned up__//
21 -This release improves the way in which images are kept. To avoid a lot of old and unused images on our systems and our systems we now (on default) cleanup old images that are not used anymore. Should you wish to keep the images and manually remove them on your own server you can deactivate this behavior per "Deploy machine" step in your deployment plan.
22 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-stack-trace.png]]
22 22  
23 -//__Improved rollup and storage of metrics when running an event streaming solution__//
24 -To improve the stability of the Manage phase and, in particular, the metrics when zooming out on the provided information, we have made some structural changes that support this user functionality better.
24 +{{info}}With the release of Spring 6 in our previous release, some users reported that their filters have begun logging warnings about discarding messages even though the filter is configured to not throw an exception on rejection. For flows that process high numbers of messages (and potentially discard a lot of messages as well) this can significantly disturb the overview of the logs in the manage phase.
25 25  
26 -{{warning}} Due to this change, the platform will remove data collected before the release date in the upcoming weeks. This process will be finished at the beginning of July. From then on, all data before the 9th of June will no longer be visible. As users generally do not look back this far back in time, we consider this an acceptable trade-off. {{/warning}}
26 +To mitigate this, you can change the filter that throws the warning so it specifically refers to a discard channel. Given the chosen configuration, we advice to use the nullChannel option. This will silently drop the message without registering a warning in the log. In case you find the warning in the log a nice addition, we suggest to add an explicit discard channel leading to a logging outbound channel adapter. This log component can then be configured to throw a warning.
27 27  
28 -== **Store Improvements** ==
28 +In the next release, we will aid you by adding a validation check that will force you to select a discard channel when it is currently not selected once you edit the flow to create a new version. More on this in the next release blog. {{/info}}
29 29  
30 -//__Improved importing behavior for specific use cases__//
31 -Before, it could happen that a certain placeholder that contained an asterisk (*) were imported incorrectly. This has now been fixed to ensure that the correct import behavior is experienced by our users.
30 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
31 +//__Error handling__//
32 +When migrating to the current generation architecture, the default error handling will now also be migrated correctly, so that no manual changes have to be done for this.
32 32  
33 -== **Event Streaming - Certificate Management** ==
34 +//__Volume mapping passwords__//
35 +Passwords for network volumes are now securely hidden in the runtime’s machine after deploying a new release.
34 34  
35 -//__Expired certification notification__//
36 -As of now we have functionality in place that will inform you (and us) when a client certificate of an Event Streaming user is going to expire within the upcoming three months. This way you can take action early on and report back that the update was succesfull so we can revoke the expiring client certificate accordingly. If you want specific information on this please reach out to us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:academy@emagiz.com]].
37 +//__Create integration removal__//
38 +When removing an integration from Create, the Create phase is now correctly updated.
37 37  
40 +//__Legacy statistics__//
41 +Legacy pages are now correctly hidden when running on the current runtime architecture.
42 +
43 +//__Unused properties__//
44 +Users should not be able to edit or delete eMagiz properties, and so these eMagiz properties will now not be shown in the 'Unused property overview' anymore.
45 +
46 +//__Enumeration values__//
47 +Users are now able to add and edit enumeration values while editing event processor flows in the Create phase.
48 +
49 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-event-processor.png]]
50 +
51 +//__SFTP sessions__//
52 +SFTP session factories did not close their connection after it was complete. This could cause connection starvation on the SFTP server, and was especially noticable when using the SFTP Session Factory without caching, as that factory opens a new connection for every call. For this, a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V304.WebHome||target="blank"]] has been released.
