December release 1

Bug fixes

Error when saving tenant settings

Fixed an error with the tenant settings not being loaded correctly.

Error when requesting content with very long template title definition

When the template title, along with the name of the business entity type, exceeded 50 characters, the request would fail. Fixed this to support long request names by clipping the name on 47 characters and adding three dots to indicate the clipping. The description field of the request will still contain the full, unclipped version of the request.

November release 2

Bug fixes

Changing content incorrectly tracking changes

When changing some properties, the save button was either incorrectly enabled or disabled in some cases. Fixed the change tracking to have the button state reflect the change state of the item.

Prevent requests from being executed twice

Added additional protection for web requests being executed multiple times when a user clicks twice on an action (e.g. a button).

Azure table writer deadlock issue

Fixed an issue regarding some azure table client code that was stuck in a deadlock state when fulfilling a request for content.

Preview cache invalidation

In some rare cases of very minor adjustments to a file's content, the preview cache was not invalidated. The invalidation logic was improved to catch these edge cases.

Improvements

Improved loading state behavior

Added behavior to track the applications 'busy' state and disable some elements accordingly.

Added feature management

Added the ability for a customer to enable preview features for validation.

Performance

Added partitioned search optimalization and a query caching mechanism for enhancing performance in some complex query scenarios.

November release 1

New features

Content Requests

Request content from people within your organisation, regardless of whether they are Content Gate users or not. Content request recipients will receive a mail with your request details. As soon as they fulfill the request a reviewer of your choice can accept or reject the uploaded content before it is actually added to Content Gate.

Tasks overview

Content Gate users can open a tasks overview in the top header menu. So far this overview shows tasks related to pending content requests.

Bug fixes

Warning about missing expected content

A warning about missing expected content was shown incorrectly in some cases. This has been fixed so the warning only shows whenever expected content is truly missing from a gallery (for instance, when expected content items are filtered out from a gallery view).

Creating expected content items with limited permissions

When creating an expected content item with limited permissions (for instance, without update permissions), this action would fail if the expected content template contains properties with default values. This has been fixed.

Errors when importing configuration

In some cases errors would rise when importing Content Gate configuration. This has been fixed.

Cleared principal secret

When saving the general settings, secrets of service clients could be cleared unexpectedly. This has been fixed.

Importing content category permissions from configuration file

Permissions for content categories are now imported correctly when importing a configuration file.

Errors when uploading files linked to a CRM entity through the client SDK

The client SDK failed to upload files which where linked to a CRM entity. This has been fixed.

Configuring Azure blob storage with key vault credentials

The last release introduced a bug where Azure blob storage could not be configured with key vault credentials anymore. This had no effect on existing configurations and has been fixed.

Uploading files through the client SDK was missing information

The CreatedBy and Version fields are now populated correctly when uploading files through the client SDK.

When showing content items which are linked to a related entity in a gallery, some properties were not visible. This has been fixed.

Improvements

Improved business model diagram

Removed the spinner when the diagram finishes loading and improved initial scaling of the diagram.

Improved permission configuration of views

Permissions on views can now be configured in the same way as in other parts of the application, which allows for more fine-grained control.

Any errors when downloading files are shown correctly

When downloading files, any errors would be surpressed or downloaded instead of the requested file. This has been improved to show the errors instead.

August release 1

Bug fixes

Default value of toggle property can't be set to false

When a property with a toggle is configured, the default value could only be set to true (enabled). This has been fixed.

Non required property can't be saved without a value

When a non-required property, without a default value, was not submitted when adding content to Content Gate, the server would reject the content. This has been fixed.

Removed duplicates when adding relation mappings

When adding new business entity relation mappings the available mappings are no longer shown twice.

Errors when sending notifications about added content

Fixed some cases where errors would appear when adding content due to errors while sending notifications about this event.

Updating numeric properties of content

After numeric properties had an initial value, no more updates of this property where possible. This has been fixed.

When visiting a gallery through an internal reference id (../gallery/), adding content to this gallery would fail. This has been fixed.

Some date ranges in the datetime gallery filters had overlapping dates, so enabling this filter could possibly filter too much or not enough content. These date ranges have been corrected.

Improvements

Performance improvements

  • Some parts of the Content Gate application are pre-loaded on startup to improve performance in daily use.
  • Sped up the loading of the Content Gate client by using a CDN to serve files.
  • Reduced logging overhead.
  • Improved and increased the telemetry for further performance improvements.

Improved readability when adding Business Entity Relation

Some fields have been made bigger to ensure all information is readable.

Improved selecting and downloading of content items

  • When downloading selected items, only the currently visible and selected items are downloaded.

Improved creating content template titles

  • When adding dynamic content to a content template title some options where hidden or cut off. This has been fixed.
  • Improved readability and editing of the dynamic title.
