Last modified by Erik Bakker on 2022/06/16 13:39

The 5.0.0 release of the eMagiz Mendix connector (EMC) brings back the configuration overview snippet where you can see the active configurations. There is a major difference: You do not have to upload the configuration anymore. They are directly retrieved from the portal.

Major Changes
  • The configuration overview, that was removed in version 4, is back as a snippet.
Minor Changes
  • There are two new buttons in the configuration overview to manually download the configurations from the active release in the eMagiz portal.
    • The Download button will only download new configurations from the active release from the portal.
    • The Reset button will stop the EMC, remove all configurations, download the active release and then start the EMC again.
  • On initial startup the configurations from the active release in the eMagiz portal are automatically downloaded.
  • You do not have to manually register exit connector listeners. Exit connectors are started together with the infra configuration.
    • To enable this feature the import mapping and/or microflow must be configured in the eMagiz portal.
  • The Java actions are branded with the eMagiz logo, so they are recognizable in your microflows.
  • Added support for string-only messages. You are able to send message to eMagiz and receive from eMagiz without using Mendix mappings.
  • The EMC will send daily uptime messages to the eMagiz portal.
  • The EMC will be added to the Mendix app store soon.
Known Issues
  • When migrating from version 4.x, you have to enable auto-start on the connector-infra to make sure the EMC starts correctly.
Remarks
  • Version 5.0.0 is only available for Mendix version 8.7.0 or higher.
