    Status

    408765

    Performance

    Performance improvements. See the Release Notes page.

    Enhancement

    401693

    Import applications

    If an import application is associated with more than one document definition and the user is uploading only one file, the import application no longer asks the user to specify whether all import files are of the same type.

    Enhancement

    421781

    Search applications

    Users can now drag-select text in search result tables. This enhancement enables users to copy data from the data.

    Enhancement

    424062

    Import applications

    The administrator can now select Filename (no extension) for the Default value property of String key bindings to import applications. This setting removes the file extension from the import document’s filename to generate the key's value.

    Enhancement

    421781

    Search applications

    If a document’s row in a search result table contained one or more empty columns, the header area (displayed after the user selected a document and then clicked View) merged some key data instead of displaying a | (pipe) character between each key value.

    Fixed

    400339

    Search applications

    The file that Autoform DM downloads (when the user clicks the Download button that is provided alongside the preview of a document in a search application) did not have the correct filename if the relevant document definition had a custom Filename format.

    Fixed

    401570

    Resolved an information disclosure vulnerability in Autoform DM.

    Fixed

    401693

    Import applications

    If an import document matches an archived document on Customer Unique Key (CUK), the archived document’s key values override the default key values (specified by the import application). However, if the import document’s CUK value is cleared, String keys whose default value is configured as Filename displayed fn:filename() instead of the import file’s filename.

    Fixed

    424831

    Installer

    Updated http to HTTP in the text displayed by the Autoform DM installer.

    Fixed

    Enhancement

    361607

    Administration

    The Enable Document Downloading configuration setting was not present in a configuration export file (export.json).

    Fixed

    361965

    REST API

    If a POST request to the /documents endpoint provided an empty string as the value for the customerUniqueKey parameter, the CUK of the resulting document was an empty string instead of NULL.

    Fixed

    362551

    Document Import

    If the Fill Series feature was used on a value that included a decimal part (for example, 8.45), the automatically generated subsequent values omitted the decimal part (for example, 9, 10, rather than 9.45, 10.45).

    Fixed

    366861

    In some circumstances, when the Autoform DM configuration defined many document definitions, the Document Import feature displayed a blank page.
