released december 7, 2023, includes we have addressed a duplicate key error observed when enqueueing hangfire jobs we recommend customers with version 10 14 2 or later upgrade to mitigate the duplicate key error 10 15 0 swimlane 10 15 0, released november 21, 2023, includes with this release, we are making enhancements to our role based access control (rbac) permissions so that granular permissions can be given to users for integration tasks, assets, key store, plugins and python packages this reduces dependency on system administrator roles you can now copy or download the notes when importing or exporting ssps these include the take action, take notes, and export inventory notes that you use to make decisions about what you are importing and exporting general improvements and bug fixes fixed a problem in the old record view that previously caused unique field validation to activate only when attempting to create a record in an application through a reference field in another application with 'ability to add new on target' enabled addressed a problem where the ui failed to re fetch the application definition after it had been modified by a background task resolved an issue where certain http headers were not correctly formatted in api replies we also resolved an issue where the 'active' field from the api get /user endpoint did not have accurate information about users currently logged in audit logs have been improved to include ip addresses additionally, users are now identified with email addresses users now return to the previous screen upon re logging in, rather than being redirected to the welcome page charts now accurately display date values, even when the date locale differs from mm/dd/yy unnecessary record revisions are no longer created when updating only the 'last updated' field in a record 10 14 2 swimlane 10 14 2, released october 30, 2023, includes clean up jobs no longer delete conditions, loops, or actions from workflow when conditions have repeat actions existing non unique fields selected as a "key field" in output mapping configuration, will continue to be shown going forward, only unique fields can be selected as a "key field " you can now search by keyword alone instead of having to build a search with swimlane's search filters 10 14 1 swimlane 10 14 1, released september 27, 2023, includes we have successfully resolved an issue related to the functionality of correlation not working properly when the correlation field is changed for an application we resolved an issue where the hangfire job, "cleanuporphanedentitiesjob," was removing field values from workflow conditions now it only deletes the condition if it doesn’t have any actions or nested stages 10 14 0 swimlane 10 14 0, released september 12, 2023, includes swimlane solution package import and export improvements the ability to import and export swimlane solution packages ( ssp files) has been improved so that you can select specific components when exporting content and import them into other swimlane instances any context or references to other applications are now maintained you can also export multiple applications at once with the flexibility to choose what you want to export existing permissions in the destination now remain intact upon import we also provide a background job that cleans any orphaned objects that were created as an artifact from using other content migration tools key store import when exporting data, if your tasks include key store keys they are automatically included and the mappings are now preserved upon import on import, if a key already exists in your destination environment, it will not be overwritten if a key does not exist, it will be created for you you will need to manually update the key value, however sizing improvements with this release, swimlane now integrates with external storage solutions to store larger fields efficiently records have a limit of up to 100 mb, and fields have a limit of up to 30 mb this means that data exceeding mongodb's document size limitation will no longer be an issue you can select which fields will need extra storage this is available on new fields only new external api for forwarding logs we have created a new external api specifically to pull logs out of swimlane so that you can use them in third party technology this api allows you to choose the time range and specific log levels it also allows you to search for specific logs based on keywords the reporting limits the number of records per page to 1000 in order to throttle data, and will specify the total number of pages in the returned response so that users are able to get all the logs see the logging topic in the swimlane user guide for additional details general improvements and bug fixes when searching records, you can now build complex filters based on conditional logic this means you can now filter on multiple fields and/or multiple values multi line text fields now have dynamic height when you need to bulk edit them chart labels have been expanded to allow a maximum of 32 characters the label can also now wrap this is specifically for when you include charts in pdf reports reports now sort alphabetically if you inadvertently close your web browser with unsaved updates in application builder, you'll now receive a pop up alert to remind you to go back and save or leave your changes users with read only permission are now able to view others' comments and images we have updated the key field select to allow you to only select unique fields when configuring create/update records output mappings you will not be allowed to select non unique fields from now on known issue if you are on an airgapped installation of swimlane, when you upload plugins, you might experience a delay where the upload stalls on “uploading plugin ” should this happen, close the tab and then view plugins to verify that your plugin has been uploaded 10 13 2 swimlane 10 13 2, released july 18, 2023, includes we have added a new string interpolation type called 'session' which is introduced in task literal inputs you can use it to send access tokens from your browser session session interpolation types are accessible to widgets and can be optionally sent to tasks via widget by invoking the triggerintegration method a new widget created, called "azure action get access token" helps to get the session token from microsoft azure ad and sends it to the api for authentication 10 13 1 swimlane 10 13 1, released june 30, 2023, includes users of swimlane can now share dashboards, reports, and records with other swimlane users based on role based permissions within the platform this means that you have control over data access with swimlane’s robust permissions only those users who have permission to view a dashboard, report, or record are available to select as recipients of the shared information but don’t worry, you can still send to others, including people outside of your swimlane platform, by simply including their email addresses sharing reports, dashboards, and records with others can be done by email, by downloading a pdf, or by scheduling either an ongoing or one time email we hope this feature helps you ensure that your swimlane data are shared with all the right people with this release, we have also added a new permission, restrict history when you enable this permission in role permissions for specific applications, then the users with that role designated are not able to see the history or workflow of that application’s records fixes we resolved an issue with copying field values some users had reported that they copied field data, received a “text copied successfully” message, but the text hadn’t actually been copied that has been resolved and you can again copy field data swimlane now restricts user information that is passed through api endpoints 10 13 0 swimlane 10 13 0, released april 27, 2023, includes improvements you can now hover and copy read only fields (with the exception of rich text and list fields) workflow runs now display in timestamps that include seconds if you inadvertently close your web browser with unsaved updates in application builder, you'll now receive a pop up alert to remind you to go back to save or leave your changes fixes we resolved an issue that was causing duplicate records due to workflow and selection fields we've improved the coedit session sync for multiple users you can now see unsaved changes during a session 10 12 0 swimlane 10

swimlane 10 11 1, released january 20, 2023, includes api improvements new attachment api endpoints now require both an associated record id and field id as well as delete/read permission for the referenced record and field previously removed attachment api endpoints have been temporarily reintroduced to circumvent breaking changes introduced in swimlane 10 11 0 due to a security vulnerability with these endpoints, they should be disabled as soon as possible via the disable obsolete attachment endpoints feature flag once you confirm that attachment apis are not directly in use the /api/data import/run endpoint now requires record create permissions for the applicationid sent in the payload see swimlane 10 11 api changes https //support swimlane com/a/solutions/articles/8000107023 for information about why we made these api changes, and how you can mitigate the vulnerability if you use these api endpoints 10 11 0 swimlane 10 11 0, released january 11, 2023, includes security and quality improvements across the swimlane platform a change to how session timeouts work instead of timing out based on how long you have been logged in, timeouts are now based on how active you've been so, as long as you're interacting with swimlane, you won't be logged out but, if you step away for a bit and don't do anything, the system will automatically log you out after a configured amount of inactivity the workflow run (time to live) ttl setting will now apply to the swimlane stageexecutions collection in the database previously, this collection was not properly managed by this setting, resulting in the collection growing to a large size and potentially causing a database crash you should now see a reduction in size if the workflow run ttl setting is configured corrected behavior when setting global record permissions field level permissions now properly supersede changes to global permissions and remain set regardless of changes to global permissions security click

sensitivity wasn’t active between saml email and username values and their counterparts in swimlane records now properly display in charts in accordance with all the constraints of the group by in the query dimension removing a selection field value no longer disables a record instead, you are able to identify the records that had that selection field value by identifying it as no value , modifying it if necessary, and then save the record updating a date field in a record now also updates the date in the default report you no longer have to refresh the browser to add a reference to a reference
