5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have crossed our t's and dotted our i's on the release properties functionality that will impact the day to day life of every user working within the platform. The focus of the release blog will consequently also be on this subject. On top of that we have several additional smaller feedback item coming from our hackathon efforts that are now released to you.
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 -== **Release Properties** ==
8 -As of this release, we will introduce a new way of handling properties for all our clients. This change intends to solidify the relationship between a release and a property value. Before, in the current generation architecture, timing of changing properties was crucial to avoid costly mistakes on Production. On top of that it was not always clear whether a property value was indeed updated as it was not linked to something that was deployed. These considerations let us to change the property management behavior not only on our next-generation architecture but also on our current generation architecture. Having said that, there are several key changes compared to the current way of managing your properties. Most notably among these are:
8 +== **Feedback Items** ==
9 9  
10 -* The current properties tab in Deploy will disappear. The new overview of the properties (and their values) can be found under the "Create phase release" in Deploy -> Releases
11 -* Property placeholders (i.e. the names of properties as given in Create) are now automatically created for you. This to avoid mistakes when filling them in.
12 -* When adding or editing a property you can *now* select multiple runtimes for which the property applies. This is mainly beneficial for those running in a double lane setup or having a distributed landscape of containers.
13 -* A, for most, new concept of a "property release" is introduced. With the help of this functionality you can easily change a property on Production without having to create a completely new release in Test and promote it to the Production environment.
10 +//__eMagiz Mendix connector__//
11 +We released a new version of our eMagiz Mendix connector that will support Mendix version 10 and higher.

15 -{{info}}For more information please check out the following microlearnings:
13 +//__Improved OpenAPI import__//
14 +The path length that eMagiz supports when importing OpenAPI specifications is now increased to a maximum of 300 characters.

16 +//__Flow test stack trace__//
17 +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.

24 -== ** Manage - Next generation graphs improvements ** ==
25 -As of this release, we will create a condensed view of your metrics when zooming out in the Manage phase graphs. This will significantly improve the performance of the manage graphs as we retrieve and show less fine-grained information when zooming out.
21 +{{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.
26 26  
27 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@202-release-blog--manage-graphs-zoomed-out.png]]
23 +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.
28 28  
29 -== **Feedback Items** ==
25 +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}}

31 -//__Improved editability when testing in eMagiz wihout Edit rights in Create__//
32 -Without having edit rights in the Create phase you could already do a lot on the level of flow tests in eMagiz. However, there were some oversights we missed during the implementation. These have been fixed allowing those without edit rights to now also change the name and description of the test case.
27 +== **Bug Fixes** ==
28 +//__Error handling__//
29 +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.
33 33  
34 -//__Improved auditability on Deploy Architecture__//
35 -To improve the audtiability on Deploy Architecture we now also log when someone with Admin rights changes specific functions on this level (i.e. Fixed IP).
31 +//__Volume mapping passwords__//
32 +Passwords for network volumes are now securely hidden in the runtime’s machine after deploying a new release.
36 36  
37 -//__Test your own exported work__//
38 -We have now made it possible to test your own exported work to the Store before it gets approved. This will increase the quality of store items we have, and our partners, have on offer within the store.
34 +//__Create integration removal__//
35 +When removing an integration from Create, the Create phase is now correctly updated.
39 39  
40 -{{info}}In case the concept of the store is new for you please check out this [[Fundamental>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-emagiz-store.WebHome||target="blank"]]{{/info}}
37 +//__Legacy statistics__//
38 +Legacy pages are now correctly hidden when running on the current runtime architecture.
41 41  
42 -//__Improved Audit Trail on several places__//
43 -In several places in the portal, we have improved the audit trail to specify better who changed what at which point in time.
40 +//__Unused properties__//
41 +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.
44 44  
45 -//__Removed the erroneous alert on message mapping when having a passthrough API__//
46 -This release removes the erroneous alert people reported on "errors in message mapping" for a passthrough API.
43 +//__Enumeration values__//
44 +Enumeration values for event processors can now be edited in Create.
47 47  
48 -== **Bug Fixes** ==

49 49  
50 -//__Avoid clicking on other components while deleting another__//
51 -To avoid unexpected behavior, we now ensure that nothing can be selected once you see the "deletion" pop-up when you want to remove something in the flow designer.
48 +//__SFTP sessions__//
49 +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.
52 52  
53 -//__Improved validation feedback in migrating to the next-generation architecture__//
54 -We have improved the validation feedback when migrating to the next-generation architecture.
55 -
56 -//__Make sure that user credentials can be viewed with view rights__//
57 -This release makes sure that the user credentials in Deploy can be considered with view rights and not only when having edit rights.
58 -
59 -//__Refresh behavior within the deployment plan is fixed__//
60 -This release changes the refresh behavior within the deployment plan to show, once more, the "to be installed" flows before the user presses Execute.
