API Management

Enhancements

  • You can now rename or edit an unpublished API, API Version, Proxy, and Proxy Endpoint to align with your company standards and best practices to ensure an efficient operation.

  • The API Dashboard now displays the Remote Address field in the API request details table to showcase the client IP of the API invoker. Learn more about API Insights.

Fixed Issues

  • Fixed an issue where the Triggered Task for an APIM URL did not return any data when the expected behavior was an Asset does not exist message.

  • Fixed an issue where, if you created an API from an existing Project and selected a few assets in some but not all asset categories, then the resulting API version would not have any assets.

Known Issues

  • We do not support Azure AD for the OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials policy because Azure AD does not provide an introspection endpoint.
    Workaround: Use the JWT credentials OAuth2 policy to authenticate with Azure AD.

AutoSync

Enhancements

  • The transformation screen preview now shows the schemas for empty tables:

  • Improved screen for handling naming conflicts:

Fixed Issues and Behavior Changes

  • The data pipeline wizard Replace empty values screen no longer shows non-nullable columns.

  • Data pipeline wizard transformation screens, Filter columns and Replace empty values, now display the schema for tables and objects that have no data.

  • For the Salesforce endpoint in integrations using Incremental load, AutoSync uses one of the following timestamp fields for the last updated column. It selects the field in this order of priority: SystemModStamp, LastModifiedDate, CreatedDate, LoginTime.

Monitor

Feature

  • From the Execution overview screen Actions column, open a pipeline in Designer to view the color-coded Snaps and identify warnings and failures.

Behavior Changes

  • For specific Orgs, the Dashboard tab redirects to the Monitor.
