6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, our new environment template will be available! Please find out more about it [[here>>Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates||target="blank"]]. Moreover, we have addressed several key feedback points within our platform.
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we focused on finishing the first iteration of our new eMagiz Mendix Connector and the first iteration of our new base image. We will first utilize the new eMagiz Mendix Connector to get an even better feeling of its performance, but you will notice a UI change straightaway. Once we have passed that hurdle, we will share more information about it and release it to a broader range of customers. Regarding the base image, we will now introduce this to our flow testing offering to see if anything unexpected happens. This is an additional safety measure we have put in place to reduce the chance of something breaking in your model once the new base image is released. On top of that, we have some minor updates to improve the quality of the platform.

10 -As announced on our [[status page>>https://status.emagiz.com/incidents/nc5jxhxtkvfg||target="blank"]] we will release a new environment template to our community. This environment template contains two significant changes on your environment of which the eMagiz agent is key. This agent is responsible for communicating between the various machines within your model (both on-premises and our cloud).
10 +With this release we introduce the new [[runtime image>>Main.Release Information.Runtime Images||target="blank"]] to our flow testing functionality. This means that as of that moment your flow tests will run against the latest runtime image. We do this to decrease the likelihood of unexpected things happening on your actual environments once we release the image to the community.

13 -* **Please take into consideration the following migration actions**:
14 -* You can use the [[(automatic) upgrade procedure>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Novice.eMagiz Cloud Management.novice-emagiz-cloud-management-cloud-templates-explained||target="blank"]] as provided within the platform to update your environments to this new environment template.
15 -* Please ensure to update the environment template before the **February, 13th 2025**. We impose this deadline to avoid delays for subsequent updates to our infrastructure.
16 -* Should you encounter any problems please your partner manager!
13 +* **Please take into consideration the following**:
14 +* This means that the flow testing results could differ from the results you get once you have deployed your functionality to an environment. If something like that happens please contact us via our [[support department>>mailto:support@emagiz.com]].

19 -== **Minor changes** ==
20 -//__Help text improvements__//
21 -We have added updated the help texts on our (S)FTP components to better explain the local filter options. This to avoid confusion on the intention of those settings.
17 +== **New eMagiz Mendix Connector**~* ==
22 22  
23 -//__Migration functionality removed__//
24 -We have removed Spring 6 related migration functionality from our portal given that all our customers are already migrated to the latest runtime image. As a result, this functionality became obsolete.
25 -
26 -//__Manage Alerting feedback__//
27 -We have slightly altered the user experience when configuring an alert in eMagiz with regards to the "Notification" part of the trigger. In here we now provide an explanation of what is going wrong when trying to activate the notifications **without** selecting **any** recipient. On top of that we now filter out **all** inactive users to ensure they cannot be selected as a recipient on a trigger.
19 +The new eMagiz Mendix Connector is ready and will be first implemented in our own infrastructure to further assess the quality and stability of the new connector. Once this is done we will share more information to the community about the changes related to the new eMagiz Mendix Connector and make it available for a broader audience. In the mean time you will already notice a UI change that identifies Mendix systems by showing the Mendix icon on these systems.

31 31  == **Bug Fixes** ==
32 -//__Import from Store - Design__//
33 -The possibility of importing anything from the store in Design is now blocked when the system has no technical name yet. This is to avoid broken transformations within the Create phase of eMagiz.
34 -
35 -//__Changing number of runtimes__//
36 -As a regular user, you can now increase and decrease the number of runtimes for existing Systems. This allows you to transfer them from Design Architecture to Deploy Architecture to be utilized in future deployments.
37 -
22 +//__Removing integrations from Create__//
23 +When removing an exit/entry connector linked to a system and using the same message type can now be removed from eMagiz without problems.
