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.
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 -With this release, we introduce the new [[runtime image>>Main.Release Information.Runtime Images||target="blank"]] to our flow testing functionality. This means that your flow tests will run against the latest runtime image as of that moment. We do this to decrease the likelihood of unexpected things happening in your actual environments once we release the image to the community.
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.

16 +* **Before using this, please take into consideration the following**:
17 +* Your Mendix app needs to run on **Java 17**
18 +* Your Mendix app needs to run on version 9.24.25 or higher
19 +** We have tested and support the LTS and MTS versions of Mendix with this eMagiz Mendix Connector

18 -
19 -The new eMagiz Mendix Connector is ready and will be first implemented in our infrastructure further to assess the quality and stability of the new connector. Once this is done, we will share more information with the community about the new eMagiz Mendix Connector changes and make it available to a broader audience. In the meantime, you will already notice a UI change that identifies Mendix systems by showing the Mendix icon on these systems.
24 +== **Minor Changes** ==
20 20  
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.
28 +
21 21  == **Bug Fixes** ==
22 -//__Removing integrations from Create__//
23 -Removing an exit/entry connector linked to a system and using the same message type can now be removed from eMagiz without problems.
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.
24 24  
25 -//__Showing Topic Statistics__//
26 -Showing topic statistics with offsets above 2.2 billion is now possible.
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.
