• Disabled Snap Functionality: Introduces a fundamental shift in the modes in which your Pipelines are executed. You can now disable a Snap, preventing it–and all downstream Snaps–from executing. This change takes a major complexity out of iterative development of Pipelines. If you have Pipelines with multiple branches, you can now test each branch in isolation without having to copy and import the branch into a new canvas.
  
  
  
  
• Triggered Task Updates: Introduces the following enhancements for running Pipelines as Triggered Tasks:
  • You can access custom HTTP headers during execution through Pipeline parameters.
  • Performance optimizations resulting in improved latency when triggering Tasks through On-premise and Local Override URLs, reducing latency.
• API Management Enhancements: The API Management layer is enhanced to handle at-scale management of APIs (Triggered tasks) configured to run on a Groundplex, as well as add support for OAuth2 authentication flow for APIs. APIM Proxies now support Tasks that are triggered from Groundplexes.
• Enhanced Support for Data Catalog: Enhances data catalog usability by enabling you to infer the Schema of your data using the JSON Formatter Snap. Previously, only metadata from Parquet-formatted files could be written to the Data Catalog. You can now use the following Snap pattern to populate the Data Catalog: JSON Formatter → File Writer → Catalog Insert.
• SFTP connection update for Snaps: Changed the default value for maxSftpChannels field to 2.
• New Expressions: Enhance the SnapLogic Expressions Language by adding the following expressions:
  • HTML.encode()/decode(): Encode/decode strings into and from HTML entities.
  • zipObject(): Returns an object composed from key/value pairs, which accepts two arrays: the first containing only properties and the second containing only values.
  • toObject(): Performs arrow functions on the values of the array to generate the key/value pair in the object returned by the callback. 
  • getMonthFromZero and getUTCMonthFromZero: Returns the month in the specified date (with the option of UTC time) as an integer between 0 (January) and 11 (December).
  • capitalize(), camelCase(), kebabCase(), snakeCase(),lowerFirst(), upperFirst(): Alters characters in your strings.

Updated Snap Packs

Binary Snap Pack

• Enhanced the Binary Snap Pack to support SMB versions 2.0 and 3.0.
• Added two properties, Number of retries and Retry interval. Use these to manage retry attempts to the following Snaps in case of network failures:
  • Directory Browser
  • File Delete
  • File Poller
  • File Reader
  • File Writer
  • Multi File Reader
  • S3 File Reader
  • S3 File Writer
  • ZipFile Read
  • ZipFile Write

Confluent Kafka Snap Pack and Hadoop Snap Pack

• The Snap Packs are tested and certified against CDH 6.1.

Database Snap Packs

• Fixed an issue with the Database Execute-type Snaps wherein the Snaps would send the input document to the output view even if the Pass through field is not selected in the Snap configuration. With this fix, the Snaps send the input document to the output view, under the key original, only if you select the Pass through field. The impacted Snaps are:

  • Azure SQL - Execute

  • Cassandra - Execute

  • Generic JDBC - Execute

  • Hive - Execute

  • MySQL - Execute

  • Oracle - Execute

  • PostgreSQL - Execute

  • Redshift - Execute

  • SAP HANA - Execute

  • Snowflake - Execute

  • SQL Server - Execute

  • Teradata Execute

  • Vertica - Execute

Hive Snap Pack

• Added a new authentication method, User ID and Password with SSL, for Hive SSL Accounts which allows SSL connections for valid user name and password credentials.
• Certified and tested the Snap Pack against CDH 6.1.

ML Analytics Snap Pack

• Profile: Added an optional second output view. When enabled, this outputs a graphical representation of the Snap's first output as a HTML file.

ML Core Snap Pack

• AutoML: Enhanced the AutoML Snap. You can now:
  • Select algorithms to derive the top models.
  • Input the best model generated by another AutoML Snap from a previous execution.
  • View an interactive HTML report that contains statistics of up to 10 models.
• Clustering: New Snap that performs exploratory data analysis to find hidden patterns or groupings in data.

ML Data Preparation Snap Pack

• Feature Synthesis: New Snap that automatically creates features out of multiple datasets that share a one-to-one or one-to-many relationship with each other. Features are measurements of data points. For example, height, mean, mode, min, max, etc.
• Match: New Snap that identifies matched records across datasets that do not have a common key field.

NetSuite Snap Pack

• NetSuite is enforcing two-factor authentication (2FA) for credentials-based accounts and advises that all web-based integrations transition to token-based authentication. To support this transition, NetSuite Credentials account will be deprecated, and we recommend that you either create or switch to NetSuite Token account immediately, so that all SnapLogic Pipelines continue to work without any disruption.

REST Snap Pack

• Added support for OAuth 1.0 accounts, which enable you to connect to applications that require OAuth 1.0.

ServiceNow Snap Pack 

• ServiceNow Insert and ServiceNow Query: Added Batch Size field that enables you to configure the number of documents that you want to process per batch. You can configure the Batch Size for Ultra Tasks as well.
