Data Service release notes
Release date: 11 November 2024
This release includes security and accessibility improvements.
We have made several UI and UX improvements across Data Service.
The following are a few of the major changes:
-
Updated navigation bar: The navigation bar now incorporates two icons, providing quick and easy access to the API and administration sections. This allows for a more seamless navigation, saving time and enhancing user convenience.
-
Redesign of the Manage Access section: The redesign aims to enhance user workflows and drive an intuitive navigation experience.
-
Relocation of Choice Sets access: Access to the Choice Set has been relocated for efficiency. It will now be found under the Entities page.
-
Redesign of Date-Time fields: We've renamed and redesigned the Hide Time Field option for Date-Time fields to Exclude time checkbox. Select it to omit the time from your data.
-
We have renamed the View Schema and Customize Schema permissions to View All Schema and Customize All Schema.
-
The Auto-number and the system built-in Id fields now display Yes in the Is unique column.
-
You can bulk upload data to your entities by using the newest API endpoint:
/<tenant_name>/<entity_name>/bulk-upload. Bulk upload also supports the CSV (UTF-8) format. -
The length of choice set names can reach up to 30 characters, aligning with the recently increased character limit for entities and field names.
-
Clicking the name of a choice set now opens the Edit Choice Set panel.
We fixed the following issues:
-
Entities without valid fields were incorrectly unselectable.
-
System User fields were incorrectly referenced as
"entityTypeId": 0in a Relationship field where the correct reference is"entityTypeId": 3. -
Several sorting and searching issues occurred on the Entities page.
-
Data Service API responses returned failed records as objects, where they should have been arrays.
-
An exported schema incorrectly displayed the "entityType" for choice sets as "Entity".
-
Sorting the Manage Access page was not working as expected.
-
Default values in an entity schema were not being imported.
-
Sorting the choice sets list by the number of choices did not display the expected results.
-
Sorting the entities list by the number of fields or number of records did not display the expected results.
