6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release we have done many improvements to the monitoring graphs in Manage. Moreover, we have made some improvements to the missing properties and unused properties overviews and did several bug fixes. Find out all improvements & bug fixes below!
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we are bringing a significant performance improvement to flow testing, with execution times now accelerated by up to three times. Next to that, over the past week, we focused on improving the usability of our platform and addressing community feedback. Specifically, we enhanced user interface elements on several pages, including the descriptions of help texts, external links within help texts, and the overall layout of help text pages. Additionally, we made improvements to several pop-up pages. We also made the user interface more user-friendly for debugging integration flows. Lastly, we resolved an issue for some models when creating an Event Processor.

12 -* Pressing the 'show main dashboard' button returns back to the unfiltered master dashboard.
13 -* For detailed views the 'show main dashboard' button is on the left.
14 -* Graphs on a page share the same crosshair.
10 +We are rolling out a major upgrade to flow testing performance, boosting execution speeds by up to three times. This enhancement will greatly accelerate your workflow when developing integrations, enabling you to run tests faster and more efficiently. Consequently, this will further support users for delivering higher-quality integrations.

16 -//__Specific improvements__//
12 +== **Feedback Items** ==
13 +//__Retention duration and bytes in Capture__//
14 +The pop-up page for specifying integration requirements in the Capture phase now correctly asks for the required retention duration and bytes for the integration/topic, instead of the previously incorrect terms retention size and bytes.
17 17  
18 -* The following graphs now show the unit of measurement per time frame (i.e. bytes/2h)
19 -** Queue Statistics - Overview
20 -*** Message Througput
21 -** Event Streaming Statistics - Overview
22 -*** Bytes In
23 -*** Bytes Out
24 -*** Messages In
16 +//__Help text panel in Capture__//
17 +Collapsing the help text of this pop-up page by clicking the "i" icon on the top right corner of the pop-up page will now correctly hide the help text pane.
25 25  
26 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-228-eventsteamingstats.png]]
19 +//__Adding tags in Capture__//
20 +In the Capture phase, clicking to add or remove a tag in the pop-up page for specifying integration requirements no longer displays a 'blocked' icon.
27 27  
28 -* The following graph now shows an improved unit of measurement
29 -** Runtime Statistics - Key Metrics
30 -*** Log events are counted as a sum instead of a maximum per data point.
31 -* The following data measurement graphs indicate whether the component was on or off when hovering over the data points.
32 -** Runtime Statistics - Other Metrics
33 -*** Data measurements
34 -** Queue Statistics - Other Metrics
35 -*** Data measurements

36 36  
24 +//__Adding attributes for a message definition__//
25 +We fixed an issue where your selected attributes were lost when navigating between paginations while adding more attributes to the entity in the pop-up shown when you press the 'Add Attribute' button on the right panel of your System Message, CDM, API Data Model, or Event Streaming Data Model.
37 37  
38 -* The Memory and CPU usage table in the Runtime statistics displays the maximum value in a given time period that is selected.
27 +//__Improved text in Design architecture__//
28 +We fixed some spelling mistakes in the steps to be executed within the pop-up page when applying to environment in Design architecture.
29 +
30 +//__Property value page__//
31 +Pop-up pages with non-editable input fields containing long text are now displaying the entire content without any text being cut off at the edge of the page.
39 39  
40 -* The styling on HTTP statistics when there are no (un)successful requests within a timeframe has been improved.
41 -* For selection dropdowns the selected variables are locked to the top for easy deselection.

35 +//__Password property__//
36 +In the Flow designer within the Create phase, copying password properties now copies the actual password value instead of the encoded value.
45 45  
46 -== **Feedback Items** ==
38 +//__Enumeration values__//
39 +When editing a message definition (i.e., a System Message, CDM, API Data Model, or Event Streaming Data Model) in the Flow designer within the Create phase, users can add enumeration values for attributes with an Enumeration data type. In this release, we’ve added a "Save and Add New" button to streamline the process of adding multiple enumeration values.
47 47  
48 -//__Failover deployment plan__//
49 -The deployment plan steps with type 'Failover' are now deprecated, meaning they can no longer be added to a deployment plan.
41 +//__Helptext for HTTP methods__//
42 +We improved the help text for the HTTP method field in the HTTP outbound gateway and HTTP outbound channel adapter flow components to provide clearer descriptions for different HTTP methods. Additionally, we implemented a validation for these components to prevent selecting the HTTP method 'PATCH' if an Apache HttpComponents REST template is not provided.
50 50  
51 -//__Edit mode flow testing__//
52 -Test messages can now be edited or removed while in the edit mode of the flow testing functionality.
44 +//__External links__//
45 +Clicking links to external documentation in the eMagiz portal is now configured to always open the links in a new tab, rather than replacing your current tab.
46 +
47 +//__Debugging Shortcut__//
48 +Debugging a flow typically requires users to activate debug on a specific flow in Deploy → Containers, then navigate to Manage → Explore → Queue Browser and manually type in emagiz.debug. In this release, we have added a shortcut button that opens the Queue Browser page directly in the pop-up page right after activating debugging.
53 53  
54 -//__Missing properties overview__//
55 -Setting the value of a missing property will now automatically remove it from the missing properties overview. Besides that, search and sort functionality have been added to the missing properties overview.

72 -It is now possible to reuse the test messages created in other flows within the routing and vice versa.
73 -
74 -//__Unused properties__//
75 -We added logging for when properties are deleted from the unused properties screen.

87 87  == **Bug Fixes** ==
88 -//__Legacy properties__//
89 -We removed legacy properties in connections through the eMagiz Mendix connector. This means that you will not get blocked anymore when deploying to Production.
90 90  
91 -//__Exceeding memory__//
92 -We fixed a bug where new machines could be deployed with exceeding memory.
64 +//__Event Processor Keystore and Trustore__//
93 93  
94 -//__Copy paste__//
95 -The copy paste functionality in the flow designer does not change the configuration of existing flow components anymore.
66 +We fixed an issue where the keystore location and the truststore location were generated incorrectly when creating a new event processor for models that were migrated from the legacy runtime architecture to the current generation architecture.
