4.27 UAT Delta

This section tracks the changes made during the iterative pushes to the UAT server and the GA release. The following is the release schedule:

  • UAT 1: Friday, Oct 29, 2021 – Snaplex version: 4.27_rc-10694 - 4.27

  • UAT 2: Friday, Nov 5, 2021 – Snaplex version: 4.27_rc-10694 - 4.27

Important

  • Per the SnapLogic Release Process, all remaining Snaplex instances across Orgs are auto-upgraded to the recommended version (main-10919 4.27 Patch 3) at 9 p.m. PT on Saturday, Jan 8, 2022. Orgs migrated to the 4.27 GA version prior to the auto-upgrade are not impacted. 
    The Snaplex upgrade process also upgrades the Java version to the latest version. After the upgrade, the Java version of your Cloudplex nodes may not be the same as your FeedMaster nodes. However, this does not impact the operations of your SnapLogic instance. We will be fixing this issue in a subsequent release.

  • To use the new SnapLogic features and Snaps in the 4.27 release, ensure that your Snaplex nodes are upgraded to the main-10704 (Recommended) version.

  • This 4.27 release includes the patches deployed to SnapLogic after the 4.26 release, as listed in the 4.26 Dot Releases section.

Dec 9, 2021

  • Fixed an issue where Snowflake and SQL Server account types were not appearing in Snaps.

  • Fixed an issue where whenever a Task is updated, such as changing its Run Policy, Notifications or Debug Settings, the task reverts all parameters to the parent Pipeline default parameters.

Nov 23, 2021

Fixed an issue where null or empty parameters were being overwritten by the default Pipeline parameters on the subsequent task update. This could cause a problem if you were updating tasks where you set the parameters to null/blank, but needed to update something else on the task. For the triggered task, the empty values are now retained upon updating any fields.
