6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release,
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.

9 -//__Queue alerting__//
10 -Alerting for message queues has been improved for the [[current runtime>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] architecture, which includes the following improvements:
11 -* New UI that shows all queues and the alerting that is active on them.
12 -* Every queue in the model will be automatically added to the list of queues in Manage - Alerting.
13 -* Triggers of a queue will be automatically enabled or disabled based on whether that queue is included in the release.
14 -* Added 2 new trigger types "inactivity check" and "periodic activity check" that replace the "queue throughput" alert.
15 -** These checks can now run for a (very) long time, whereas the "queue throughput" was limited by 1 hour.
16 -* The alert generation has been solidified to reduce the likelihood that your alerting is affected with false positives or false negatives during eMagiz maintenance.
17 -* When the same check of multiple queues trigger at the same time, the alerts will be aggregated into a single summarized email instead of a single email per alert.
18 -
19 -If your model is running on the [[current runtime>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] architecture, you will be migrated on the day of release. eMagiz will transfer the queue alerts that you have currently configured to the closest match in the new alerting stack. Models that are in the process of migrating to the [[current runtime>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] architecture during the time of the release of this feature will be able to pre-configure their new queue alert triggers, but will not be able to make active use of them until the runtime migration has finished.

21 -{{info}}Please note that the new queue alerting will not yet be available for queues with message redelivery. {{/info}}
10 +//__eMagiz Mendix connector__//
11 +We released a new version of our eMagiz Mendix connector that will support Mendix version 10 and higher.
22 22  
23 -//__Tenant technical name__//
24 - The technical name of a tenant cannot be changed once the tenant has been transferred to Create.
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.
25 25  
26 -//__Tenant transfer__//
27 -A tenant cannot be untransferred from Create if the connector container of that tenant is still active in Deploy.
16 +//__Improved OpenAPI import__//
17 +The path length that eMagiz supports when importing OpenAPI specifications is now increased to a maximum of 300 characters.
28 28  
29 -//__Property placeholder__//
30 -A property placeholder which contains a tenant name will be hidden in case its values and the technical name of the tenant are equal.
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.
31 31  
22 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-219-creation-carousel-stack-trace.png]]
23 +
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 +
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 +
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  == **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.
33 33  
34 +//__Volume mapping passwords__//
35 +Passwords for network volumes are now securely hidden in the runtime’s machine after deploying a new release.
36 +
37 +//__Create integration removal__//
38 +When removing an integration from Create, the Create phase is now correctly updated.
39 +
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.
