Public APIs
Documentation of the Activity API is now available.

Designer

  • Toolbar and icon changes.
  • The toolbar has changed to display less buttons initially and an option to display all.
  • The order of icons has changed.

The icons for the following functions changed:

  • Pipeline Properties
  • Copy
  • Versions
  • Zoom to Fit

Functionality change: Validation separated from Save.

  • New Validate pipeline icon in the toolbar. Clicking the Validate pipeline icon validates the pipeline. If the pipeline has unsaved changes, it will be saved first. Clicking the icon while a validation is in process cancels that validation.
  • The Auto-validate option in User Settings was modified to now toggle between save and save plus validate when saving a Snap info box. Within the Mapper Snap, you will need to click Validate at the pipeline level to trigger a validation.
  • Note: When copying, moving or importing a pipeline, opening pipeline in the canvas, or logging in, auto-validation will not be triggered. It will be triggered only when saving the pipeline, a Snap inside the pipeline, or pipeline properties.

Manager

  • Asset search added to Manager. Once found, each asset entry label has a context menu that includes the actions available for that asset type and a view asset in project entry.
  • When creating a user, you can now disable sending the Welcome email notifications.
  • Setting CORS domain whitelist
  • Org admin can enter a list of domains that can access slsched rest endpoints
  • The value entered by the org admin will appear in the Access-Control-Allow-Origin response header for slsched requests
  • Configurable maximum wait time before restart added to Update Snaplex dialog.

Dashboard
