November 2023

435patches24208

Fixed an issue with the HTTP Client Snap that caused incorrect parsing of the boundary parameter by some REST endpoints. If you need to specify a character set, enter it in the individual parts of the request, as the charset parameter has been removed from the multipart content-type.

433patches21307

Latest

Fixed an issue with the HTTP Client Snap that caused pagination to fail when the next Snap in the pipeline could modify the input document (for example, the Mapper Snap).

Behavior Change:
With the 433patches21307, pagination evaluation occurs before sending the output to the output view. Therefore, if snap.out.totalCount is part of the Has next or any other pagination properties, the Snap will not include the count in the output corresponding to the request that produced the output document.
