6 **Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In the last sprint, we released our migration wizard for the new eMagiz connector. This wizard will guide you through migrating the existing eMagiz connector within Mendix to our latest version, which is packed with improvements. Furthermore, we will release a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.WebHome||target="blank"]] that corrects some changes and improves the UI/UX of data grids across the platform. In addition, we have various smaller changes and bug fixes for you to enjoy.

8 == **eMagiz Connector - Migration Wizard** ==
9
10 As of this release, we have a migration wizard making it easier for you to migrate your existing connections to eMagiz from Mendix applications. This wizard will guide you through the process as an eMagiz developer and, within the process, will inform you which information you must share with the Mendix App Builder. You can find this wizard via Deploy -> Mendix Connectors. Here, you can migrate each connector individually.

18 {{info}}The following applies to this functionality:
19 * The wizard is designed to help you migrate the eMagiz connector. Ensure you carefully read and follow the provided instructions to avoid confusion between yourself and the Mendix App Builder.
20 * When using the //Excel Importer module// in your Mendix application, we advise **waiting** to migrate until our next release of the eMagiz Connector.
21 * Should you run into any problems please contact us at [[support@emagiz.com>>mailto:support@emagiz.com]].{{/info}}

23 === **Minor Changes** ===
24
25 //__Event Streaming Infrastructure Update__//
26 Our infrastructure for event streaming will be updated to the latest version so we can benefit from the latest security improvements.
27
28 //__Data grid updates__//
29 * We have updated a lot of our data grids to reflect the latest changes available
30 ** ‘Double click’ action on data grid rows is introduced to the newer datagrid format and, where possible, configured as such. Since older grids will be gradually replaced, this update allows for the maintainability of the behavior you are used to.
31 ** Unfortunately, The above change resulted in a behavior shift when selecting one or multiple rows in a grid (for example, in the trigger overview). Previously, clicking on the whole row resulted in the selection of the row. Now only checking the checkbox results in a row selection.
32
33 One example of such a change can be seen here.

36
37 //__Create Transformations - Updated Functionality__//
38 In the Transformation tab of the Create phase, conditional operators can be added for transformations with multiple attributes as a source.
39
40 //__Deploy Machines - **Windows**__//
41 We have updated the default network deployment strategy for Windows machines, which might affect your machines. When you access the Deploy phase, you will see the machines required for redeployment. Redeploying your machine will ensure you benefit from these enhanced network capabilities.
42
43 //__Deploy History__//
44 * Deploy releases history tab better renders the information on the screen.
45 ** Additionally, we have updated the "Export to Excel" button to reflect the latest functionality. As a result, there is no longer a limit to how many rows can be exported.
46
47 //__Deploy Performance__//
48 We have implemented performance improvements to the Deploy phase. The larger the model, the more notable the improvements.
49
50 //__eMagiz Connector - Update__//
51 We released a new patch version of the eMagizConnector in the Mendix marketplace. It includes some small changes to the naming conventions to improve quality and align with best practices.
52
53 == **Bug Fixes** ==
54 //__System Message - Add Attributes__//
55 Using the "save and create new attribute" button in the system message tab of the design phase will not open a "new attribute" window until the previous attribute’s details are properly entered and saved.
56
57 //__Create Transformations - Helptext__//
58 We now better explain how you can link various transformation components to each other in sequence when using our transformation functionality.
59
60 //__UX update Catalog__//
61 The content inside the “used by integrations” table for the topic catalog is properly rendered to be more readable for systems with longer names. The title represents the content of the table.
62
63 //__Create Transformations - Date/Time Transformations__//
64 Date/time transformer pop-ups in the Transformation tab of the Create phase are rendered in a format that allows editing when in edit mode.
65
66 //__Runtime Image Update__//
67 * We will release a new [[runtime image>>doc:Main.Release Information.Runtime Images.V331.WebHome||target="blank"]] that corrects some changes.
68 ** Support for the ‘NTCredentials’ authentication method in a custom HttpComponentsMessageSender support object has been reintroduced.
69 ** In some edge cases, log messages produced with the Logging channel adapter component did not reach the Manage phase. This issue is now resolved.
