  • TIBCO Cloud? Integration V3.6.0.0 December 2022 Release


    Ana Bahr

    What?s New

    TIBCO Cloud? Integration

    • The updated TIBCO Cloud Integration Hybrid Agent allows you to  manage remote apps from the  TIBCO Cloud Integration user interface. Remote apps are auto-discovered by the agent and can be monitored, scaled up or down, stopped or started, and environment variables can be updated. Note that to use this new functionality, the latest version of the agent must be downloaded and run in a Kubernetes Cluster. Existing Hybrid Agents used for Hybrid Connectivity to establish tunnel connections to on-premises resources can continue to run and do not need to be upgraded at this time. (IPAS-20577)
    • You can now download  TIBCO BusinessWorks app templates from the TIBCO Cloud Integration Marketplace and import those templates into TIBCO Business Studio for BusinessWorks . (IPAS-20471)
    • A new  --logStreamPort option has been added to the start command for the Hybrid Agent. In cases where there are two agents on the same machine, you can specify the port to be used for streaming logs using this command: tibagent start agent --logStream --logStreamPort <port number> <agentName>  (IPAS-18585)
     

    TIBCO Cloud Integration API

    We have added the following API methods in this release:

     

    GET ?/v1?/subscriptions?/{subscriptionLocator}?/apps?/{appId}?/testsuite/export

    Use this  method to export TIBCO Flogo Test Suites. Test Suites are a collection of unit tests for the flows in a Flogo app. (IPAS-20552)
    PUT ?/v1?/subscriptions/{subscriptionLocator}/apps/{appId}/endpoints/{endpointId}
    Use this method to update the service name and description of an app endpoint.  (IPAS-19959)
    POST /v1/subscriptions/{subscriptionLocator}/apps/{appId}/pin
    Use this method to pin a Flogo app. Using a pin you can go back to a previous version of an app if necessary. (IPAS-20655)
    DELETE /v1/subscriptions/{subscriptionLocator}/apps/{appId}/pin
    Use this method to delete a pin from a Flogo app.
    PUT /v1/subscriptions/{subscriptionLocator}/apps/{appId}/pin
    Use this method to restore a pinned Flogo app.
    GET /v1/subscriptions/{subscriptionLocator}/apps/{appId}/pin

    Closed Issues

    TIBCO Cloud? Integration

    FLOGO-9426 / FLOGO-9486

    When you add a property or group in an app having a large number of flows and nested app properties (for example, 80 flows and more than 100 nested app properties), the API call for the Save button takes time to add properties and groups.

     

    FLOGO-9427

    If you move a property from the root level or from one group to another group in the app properties (using the drag-and-drop feature), at an activity level, existing mappings are not updated in the input data or mapper text field.

     

    FLOGO-9434

    If you remove a property and add the same property under another group or root level, the mappings are not updated in the input data or mapper text field. The changes are visible at the activity level but the input data or mapper text field displays the following error: Property 'Property_name' does not exist in '$Property'

    If you move a property from the root level or from one group to another group in the app properties (using the drag-and-drop feature), at an activity level, existing mappings are not updated in the input data or map?$Prop?$Property?ext field.

     

    FLOGO-9444

    Search in app property does not return a match if that app property does not have any value.

     

    FLOGO-9742

    When using access credentials and a session token generated from the AWS portal, the Queue URL is not shown in the SQS SendSQSMessage activity and SQS ReceiveSQSMessage trigger.
