  • What?s New 

    API

    • Added a new API method that allows you to update the log level of a running TIBCO Flogo app. (IPAS-18406)
    • Added new API methods that allow you to enable, disable, and view the status of the TIBCO Flogo Flow tester. When enabled, the Flow Tester service allows you to test Flogo apps connected to on-premise systems using the Hybrid Agent. (IPAS-18918)
    • Added new API methods that allow you to enable, disable, and view the status of the TIBCO BusinessWorks execution history service. When enabled, you can view execution history on the App Details page for TIBCO BusinessWorks apps that connect to on-premise systems using the Hybrid Agent. (AMBW-43702)
    • Updated the enable DB Service API method to use an internal system key, which makes the Hybrid Agent Access key parameter (tunnelKey) optional. (IPAS-19067)

    Develop/TIBCO Flogo®

    • Enhanced data mapper
      • The Flogo data mapper has a redesigned user interface based on a drag-and-drop experience and visual data linking. This new data linking view makes it easier to quickly see what data is mapped and where the data is going in the target datastore. 
      • You can now do conditional data mapping by using if/else conditions. The if/else statements are used to execute blocks of code based on the specified conditions.
    • Enhanced Monitoring (applicable for an app executable only)
      • A new component, TIBCO Flogo® Flow State Manager, has been introduced. Use this component along with the TIBCO Flogo® Enterprise Monitoring application to collect information about the state of all executed flows of a Flogo app. The details are displayed on the TIBCO Flogo® Enterprise Monitoring dashboard.
    • Connect to on-premise systems with the Flow tester
      • The Flow Tester now allows you to test apps that connect to on-premises systems by selecting the Using on-premise services check box.
    • Deploy a Flogo app in Knative
      • You can now create and deploy a Flogo app as a Knative service.
    • OpenTelemetry support
      • You can now capture traces from your Flogo app by using OpenTelemetry Collector and send them to observability vendor tools such as Jaeger, Zipkin, and Datadog.
    • Changing Log Level of Running App Instance
      • You can now change the log level of a running app instance without restarting the app by using the GET and PUT curl commands.
    • Timer trigger enhancements
      • In the Timer trigger, you can now specify the time to start the flow execution by using the Start Time field. You can select the date and time from the calendar. Alternatively, you can set an app property for the start time. When you configure an app property for the start time, you must use the RFC 3339 date and time format. 
    • Auto-update of mappings when upstream activity or app property are renamed
      • When an upstream activity or app property is renamed, all the mappings are now automatically updated to use the new name of the activity or app property. 
    • Additional mapper function
      • In the JSON category, a json.exists function has been introduced. This function checks whether a key exists in a specified JSON object. The key can be a JSONPath expression and the function returns true if the expression evaluates to true.
    • Ability to migrate contribution models to newer versions
      • For existing apps, if a new field is introduced in the latest contribution version, the contribution is now automatically upgraded. In prior releases, you had to export and re-import the app to see the changes in the contribution.

    Integrate/TIBCO BusinessWorks?

    • Provision to view Execution History data on App Details page for TIBCO BusinessWorks remote apps
    • Added support for EMS X Client libraries with Integrate apps deployed in TIBCO Cloud Integration.

    TIBCO Active Matrix BusinessWorks Plug-In for OSIsoft PI

    After the January 2022 release of TIBCO Cloud Integration, the Plug-In for OSIsoft PI only supports PI JDBC Driver 2019. Follow the instructions in Supplementing Plug-ins and Connectors in the TIBCO Cloud Integration online help to supplement the plugin with the PI JDBC Driver 2019.  (PIBW-870)

    https://integration.cloud.tibco.com/docs/index.html#tci/using/using-apps/configuring-apps/supplements.html

    Note: Using the Plug-in for OSIsoft PI without the required supplement generates errors similar to one of the following errors: 

    Exception occurred while processing Output for activity [JDBCQuery - Connection to https://127.0.0.1/DataAccessServer/Query failed. Error: [PI SQL DAS] Connection refused

    Details: connect failed in tcp_connect()

    Connection to net.tcp://127.0.0.1/DataAccessServer/Query failed. Error: NetTcp is not supported.

     or

    Exception occurred while processing Output for activity [JDBCQuery - RDSAWrapper ( /opt/tibco/bwcloud/1.1/system/hotfix/shared/libRdsaWrapper64-1.5.3b.so) cannot be loaded because it could not be verified. Message: /opt/tibco/bwcloud/1.1/system/hotfix/shared/libRdsaWrapper64-1.5.3b.so (No such file or directory)] .-{ActivityName=JDBCQuery, ProcessName=pi_test.Resource_get, ModuleName=PI_test}

    Deprecating and End Of Support for Development

    IPAS-15461

    Limited messaging support was provided as part of the TIBCO Cloud Integration - Integrate capability prior to the availability of TIBCO Cloud Messaging as a first-class, full-scale messaging service. With the availability of the suite of messaging options as part of TIBCO Cloud Messaging, we will be deprecating and retiring the legacy and limited messaging Cloud FTL palette offered as part of TIBCO Cloud Integration by the next release. We recommend evaluating the extensive set of messaging options now available as part of TIBCO Cloud Messaging (https://www.tibco.com/products/tibco-cloud-messaging) and the corresponding Plug-in for TIBCO eFTL? (https://integration.cloud.tibco.com/docs/index.html#tci/connectors/eftl/index.html).

    Automate / TIBCO Cloud Live Apps

    CBPM-22671

    The work item notifications > Email Template User Interface does not function correctly if Administrator is launched from the TIBCO Cloud Integration Environment & Tools page.

    Develop/TIBCO Flogo

    FLOGO-8648

    When a user launches a TIBCO Flogo application for the first time after the January 2022 TIBCO Cloud Integration release, there is a mismatch in the app data after the app contribution auto upgrade. This mismatch generates design-time validation errors which were not there in previous releases.

    This issue has been addressed by the February 14, 2022 release for any apps that have not been modified.  If you have modified any apps, contact Support for help recovering those apps manually.

    FLOGO-8530

    Custom errors from the implementation are not returned back to the client from the Graphql trigger.

    FLOGO-8519

    The documentation of the InvokeRESTService activity is updated to include the following note:

    If the content type is other than the types application/json, application/xml, or text/plain, it is converted into Base64-encoded values. You can use the utils.decodeBase64 function to get the actual values. This is applicable when Configure Response Codes is set to True or False.

    FLOGO-8448

    The eBay oAuth flow does not work with grant type "Authorization Code". To fix this, whenever the grant type 'Authorization Code' is used to get the access token,  'Authorization Header' is now set in the request.

    FLOGO-8438

    When configuring the HTTP Client Auth connector for the TIBCO Cloud service account using client credentials, an "invalid credentials" error was returned.

    FLOGO-8203

    The Client Authentication type 'Header' does not work for the grant type 'Client Credentials'. 

    FLOGO-8191, FLOGO-8140

    For a large response payload, the response time is significantly higher for a REST trigger when configured with a STRING data type.

    FLOGO-8189, FLOGO-8190, FLOGO-8123

    In the InvokeRestService activity, if the request type is set to form-urlencoded and the input payload contains spaces, the activity does not render the output correctly. 

    FLOGO-8176

    The "Using the Loop Feature in an Activity" section of the documentation is updated to include the following note:

    "Keep in mind that the index for the Repeat while true iteration begins at zero and iterates n+1 times. If you enter 4 as the iterator value, it executes as the following iterations: 0,1,2,3,4.?

    FLOGO-8133  

    The Login action under the HTTP Client Authorization Configuration fails with an ?Invalid credentials? error for the 'Client Credentials' grant type and 'Body' as 'Client Authentication'. 

    FLOGO-8125

    Images in the "Creating Your First REST API" section of the documentation are updated.

    FLOGO-8036

    When you import an app, the process takes a long time if the TIBCO Cloud Mesh service invoked by the InvokeRESTService activity is not available in the TIBCO Cloud Integration environment.

    FLOGO-7968

    If you have defined the multipart form data field as filecontent but provide a string in the input, multipart form data is returned as a string instead of a file.

    FLOGO-7936

    A manually-typed array is not supported in a ternary expression. As a workaround, you can use the new If/Else feature.

    FLOGO-7810

    When the ReplyToTrigger activity is used in a flow, the following warning related to the Return activity is incorrectly displayed: Flow output is defined but not configured. To set flow output, add Return activity from Default category.

    FLOGO-7967

    If you have defined a filecontent type as a multipart form data field, you cannot provide a filename as input.

    FLOGO-7600

    For Project Flogo extensions, the configuration user interface is disoriented after clicking the Discard button and requires a browser refresh. If you click the Discard button, the user interface for FIELDS is transformed to basic type inputs (input=text).

    FLOGO-7523

    Users that are not the owner of the app cannot export the app.

    FLOGO-7572

    When you upload a contribution with a Default category (display.category set to Default), an error message is not displayed.

    FLOGO-7491

    The REST trigger settings user interface hangs when an app is created from an Open API 3.0 spec with an Object type in multipart/form-data request.

    FLOGO-7411

    Overriding app property names with (secs) for the deployed Lambda functions from the command line is not supported.

    FLOGO-6950

    If an app is created with the app property type as password and double quotes are used in the value of the password, the app fails. 

    FLOGO-6031 

    In the InvokeRestService activity, the application level schema toggle is displayed for plain/text and other type request and response.

    FLOGO-4324

    For a JSON tag that does not have any value, Null is displayed in the output. As a workaround, you can use the new If/Else feature and add the "isdefined(xxxx)" condition. 

    *FLOGO-3305

    You run into an error after an old application JSON file is imported if it uses the default REST Invoke activity.

    FLOGO-2844

    If you change the input or output schema in a subflow, it does not give any warning or error in mapping in the call flow activity.
