6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we focused on improving the flow back and forth between the various phases in eMagiz by solving several feedback items related to Design, Create, and Design and the interaction between these three phases. We have also improved the memory calculation for all runtimes running on a Windows machine. Moreover, we have updated the styling of our graphs in the Manage phase.
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we focused on testing the eMagiz Mendix Connector and solving internal feedback on the process and the connector itself. With that behind us, we are ready to launch the new eMagiz Mendix Connector in our community. With this release, we will make it available for all new Mendix systems in models running on the current-generation architecture. In a future release, we will bring a migration wizard aiding a simple and smooth migration to the new eMagiz Mendix Connector. On top of that, we have some minor updates to improve the quality of the platform.

10 -As part of this release, we will update the underlying memory calculations for all runtimes running on a Windows machine. Consequently, these runtimes will have a slightly increased memory footprint on your machine.
10 +This release introduces the new eMagiz Mendix Connector to our platform. This means that when you add a new Mendix system to any eMagiz model that runs on the current-generation architecture (new and existing), eMagiz will configure this Mendix system to act as the new eMagiz Mendix Connector. We have created this eMagiz Mendix Connector to simplify the configuration and management of the eMagiz Mendix Connector, to enhance the stability of the connection between your Mendix app and your eMagiz model, and to simplify problem detection if something goes wrong. As a result, the whole way of working with the eMagiz Mendix Connector has changed both in Mendix and in eMagiz. This means that less communication is needed during the development of integrations with Mendix, smoothening the development process and that the functionality within Mendix resembles how we run all our runtimes in the current-generation architecture.

13 -* **Please take into consideration the following**:
14 -* The new memory settings will take effect on the **first** deployment you will execute after **this** release.
15 -** When executing this deployment, you will see a pop-up notifying you of the **new** used memory. Here, you can also see whether the new **used** memory exceeds the available memory.
16 -* Should the **used** memory increase the available memory (as determined by eMagiz), you can manually override this setting in Design -> Architecture under the "Edit machine" option by filling in the memory field.

27 -== **Minor changes** ==
28 -//__SMB component improvements__//
29 -Validation feedback and help text updates for the following components: SMB outbound gateway, SMB session factory, and SMB composite list filter.
30 -
31 -//__EDI Components - Styling Update__//
32 -The styling of the following components has been updated.
26 +//__Added View option on support objects__//
27 +We have added a view option that allows you to browse the list of support objects when you are **not** in "Start Editing" mode. This makes determining whether particular support objects exist and which ones you need before diving into building a flow much easier.

44 44  == **Bug Fixes** ==
45 -//__Import from Store - Design__//
46 -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.
30 +//__Auto-creation connector infra SOAP hosted endpoint__//
31 +We have changed the auto-creation behavior for SOAP web service systems. This means that we now properly create two support objects, Payload Root Endpoint Mapping, and SOAP Web service interceptors, to avoid errors when opening the entry flow for the first time.
47 47  
48 -//__Removing integrations from Create__//
49 -When the last integration is removed from a system in create, the container infra flows are also removed from the create phase release.
50 -
51 -//__Flow Test Logging - Navigation__//
52 -We have improved the navigation of the logging shown on the flow test level in Create.
53 -
54 -//__Create Phase - Synchronization process updated__//
55 -The flow version for the Create release on the Deploy phase is synced for that specific flow automatically when the user resets the flow in the Create phase.
56 -
57 -//__Update on search functionality in "Start/Stop flows" overview__//
58 -Searching in the start/stop flows overview and the queue browser can now be done from any page in the overviews.
59 -
60 -//__Windows line break fix__//
61 -If the message in a log or error contained a Windows line break (\r\n), and a log or error alert was configured that matched it, an alert would be generated, but no email would be sent out.
33 +//__Manage Dashboard Error__//
34 +We now prevent errors in the Manage Dashboard overview when an error occurs in a component with an id that does not follow the [id].[system].[flow] convention or when that value is longer than expected.
