Important

New
We added these features

  • The observability feature in Flow now includes HTTP support, allowing you to connect a broader range of observability platforms, such as Dynatrace and Splunk. This enhancement improves monitoring and analytics capabilities, providing greater flexibility and integration options. (FLOW-7505)

  • Flow now includes an enhanced Data Grid component that displays data in a grid format. This component provides secure user interaction and data management features, ensuring a reliable experience. Key features of this component include:

    • Search, sort, resize, and reorder columns for improved data organization.
    • CSV export functionality for easy data sharing.
    • Editable cells that allow for quick updates.
    • Pin columns to the left for better visibility.
    • Customizable cells with the ability to incorporate custom components. (FLOW-7647)

  • We added support for theme snapshot deletion to enhance the user experience. This update lets you delete theme snapshots when environments are off, allowing for a cleaner and more manageable list. This functionality provides a way to clear snapshots, similar to the rollback process for a production release when environments are active. (FLOW-7492)

  • The table component now includes a feature for exporting tables to CSV format in Runtime. This enhancement adds a button above the table, allowing you to download its contents as a CSV file easily. (FLOW-8047)

  • You can now access the Multi-Cloud Runtime without installing the player. Runtime assets are now successfully moved into the engine, eliminating the requirement to run a web server to use the player. (FLOW-7835) (Available for Early Access)

Fix
We fixed these issues

  • Resolved an issue affecting the selection of columns in tables that source the values from a connector. With this update, the properties drop-down correctly displays the columns in a table that sources values from a connector, streamlining the configuration process and enhancing user experience. (FLOW-7327)

  • We addressed an issue where modifying an editable boolean table cell during Runtime incorrectly set the modified value as a boolean in the client state. The system now stores these values as string representations of booleans, such as 'true' or 'false'. (FLOW-7958)

  • Fixed an issue that prevented the reordering of flow navigation items. With this fix, navigation items can now be successfully reordered through drag-and-drop actions, improving the overall user experience and enhancing the organization of flow navigation. (FLOW-8016)

  • We resolved the issue with the step shape in Flow to ensure links open in the current window instead of opening in a new window. (FLOW-8040)
