Hi there, eMagiz developers!  In this release, our new log alerting will be available! Please find out more about it here. Furthermore, we have implemented improvements for SMB and did some performance improvements. Lastly, from now on we no longer support our legacy Mendix connector (< version 4.x).

Information

Please note that this is our last release of the year. Our next release will be on the 16th of January!

Feedback Items

Log alerting
We have added log message alert triggers to our new alerting stack for the current runtime architecture. This new feature allows you to trigger on all incoming log messages with an error log-level, or trigger for log messages with a specific log message and log level (info, warning or error) combination. Furthermore, you can specify the specific runtime the log message originated from as one of the filters as well.

Information
  • Please take into consideration the following migration actions
  • All existing log message alert triggers from the current runtime architecture models will be automatically migrated to the new alerting feature.
  • All fields will be mapped directly to their corresponding new fields on a 1:1 basis, with one exception:
    • The ‘Description’ field has been replaced by the new ‘Instructions’ field (note: the 'Description' field no longer exists).
    • The values of the old description field will be transferred into the instructions field
  • Additionally, a new field, ‘Name’, has been introduced for identification purposes. The ‘Name’ field will be included in email notifications when a trigger is activated.
    • This field will be automatically populated with a default name (e.g., "Log Trigger 1").
    • Users are advised to review and update these names to appropriately reflect each trigger's purpose.
  • A new filter for ‘Log level’ has also been added to the new Log alert triggers, which will be configured such that your existing triggers will generate an alert for all log types.
  • The new feature introduces duplicate detection when saving an individual log trigger. This duplicate detection is not performed during the migration process. Please check your migrated error triggers to avoid receiving duplicate log alerts.
Warning

To keep a better overview, we recommend you to remove your old dynamic triggers after the new error triggers are activated, these have already been disabled by our migration process. The same applies for your log-related triggers. These triggers can be found under the ‘Other’ tab on the alert triggers page.

Warning

Please check out our microlearning for an elaborate explanation of our new error alerting. 

Tooltip alerting
We have improved the visibility of titles of larger columns in the new Alerting page.

SMB improvements
Some configuration options have been added to our SMB connectors that will solidify the connections with a SMB share:

  • It is now possible to add a local filter to the SMB inbound channel adapter.
  • It is now possible to add a 'Request handler advice chain' to the SMB outbound channel adapter, SMB outbound gateway, FTP outbound gateway and SFTP outbound gateway.
