5		-**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last few weeks, we have worked around the clock to release various improvement points within the 3rd generation runtime and elsewhere. We have improved the feedback provided when a flow can't start due to an incorrect transformation, improved when specific logging is triggered, and improved the stability of our internal infrastructure. On top of that, we fixed several bugs surrounding other parts of the platform. So without further ado, let us look at all these improvements.
	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		-== **3rd generation improvements** ==
	8	+== **Feedback Items** ==
8	8
9		-//__Better feedback in the error log when a corrupt stylesheet is encountered__//
10		-We have improved the logging within a 3rd generation runtime that identifies the broken resource by name within a container and informs you to navigate to Create -> Resources to see in which flows the resource is used so you can take the appropriate action.
	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		-//__Better internal error handling to avoid unnecessary alerting and notifications__//
13		-We have improved the internal error handling when sending metrics from the runtime to our monitoring stack. This will gravely reduce the alerts you receive on this topic when your model runs on the 3rd generation monitoring stack.
	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		-//__Improved Manage Dashboard__//
16		-This release improves what you can see in the Manage Dashboard after you migrate your model to the 3rd generation runtime architecture.
	16	+//__Improved OpenAPI import__//
	17	+The path length that eMagiz supports when importing OpenAPI specifications is now increased to a maximum of 300 characters.
17	17
18		-//__Improved process surrounding "slot standby" and "slot wakeup" for 3rd generation runtimes__//
19		-When a slot is put into standby mode, we also stop all on-premise runtimes to avoid excessive logging (and alerting) on your models with this functionality. The opposite happens when the slot wakeup is triggered. As a result, not only the cloud runtimes are started but also all on-premise runtimes.
	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.
20	20
21		-//__Improved process of deploy preparation__//
22		-With this release, we have improved the process through which your deployment action is prepared by eMagiz. As a result, the chances of unexpected behavior occurring in your model are drastically reduced.
	22	+[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-stack-trace.png]]
23	23
24		-//__Improved migration of Streaming container__//
25		-When migrating your streaming container, we now consider whether "custom error handling" is used within one of the event processors. Based on that determination, additional components are added to ensure that the streaming container will work after migrating without manual intervention.
	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.
26	26
27		-//__Add History to Notifications in Manage__//
28		-To improve the auditability of our platform, we have introduced an audit trail to the Notification section in Manage for models running on our 3rd generation monitoring stack. This way, it is always visible when the notifications were paused and who paused or unpaused the notifications.
	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.
29	29
30		-//__Improved Manage phase for Event Streaming__//
31		-Based on the feedback on our first iteration of the Manage phase for Event Streaming, we have improved the graphs and the calculations that fill the graphs with values. On top of that, we have added help texts to clarify what each chart our table displays to you.
	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}}
32	32
33		-//__Improved help text for network volumes__//
34		-With this release, we have improved the help text that explains network volumes and how to use them within our solution.
	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.
35	35
36		-{{warning}}Should you be interested in migrating your model to our new 3rd generation architecture, don't hesitate to contact us at [[productmanagement@emagiz.com>>mailto:productmanagement@emagiz.com]] or read our [[documentation>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] on the subject.{{/warning}}
	34	+//__Volume mapping passwords__//
	35	+Passwords for network volumes are now securely hidden in the runtime’s machine after deploying a new release.
37	37
38		-== **Feedback items ** ==
	37	+//__Create integration removal__//
	38	+When removing an integration from Create, the Create phase is now correctly updated.
39	39
40		-//__Generation of security logic API Gateway in case of API Key as security method is improved__//
41		-With this release, we have improved the generation of security logic within the Create phase related to API Gateways that use the API Key method as their security mechanism.
	40	+//__Legacy statistics__//
	41	+Legacy pages are now correctly hidden when running on the current runtime architecture.
42	42
43		-//__User Roles are sorted alphabetically__//
44		-All user roles under User Management are now also sorted alphabetically.
	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	45
46		-//__Name of keystore for user management now includes the environment__//
47		-To improve the naming of the downloaded keystore that needs to be distributed to external parties, we have added the name of the environment to the filename. You can distinguish between the various environments by looking at the filename.
	46	+//__Enumeration values__//
	47	+Users are now able to add and edit enumeration values while editing event processor flows in the Create phase.
48	48
49		-//__Improved Topic calculations in Design Architecture__//
50		-Following our earlier improvements on the best practice configuration of topics we have now additionally updated the calculations on "Topic Storage" level to ensure that the configuration of a user is related to the total Assigned Size on "Topic Storage" level.

51	51
52		-== **Bug fixes ** ==
	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.
53	53
54		-//__Consolidated upgrade process cloud template__//
55		-With this release, we have removed some specific update options that could cause mismatches between what was visually displayed and what was happening in the cloud.
56		-
57		-//__Ensure users can deploy release on environments they have edit rights on__//
58		-Currently, users with limited rights in Deploy, for example, only edit rights in Test, can now activate and deploy releases ready for other environments but need to be deployed on the environment for which they have the rights to do so.
