Production Cloud Agent Group Release Notes

10.11

• APAC: Released 13 January 2020
• EMEA: Released 15 January 2020
• NA: Released January 16, 2020

This update is an upgrade of the Production Cloud Agent Group from agent version 10.8 to agent version 10.11.

The Sandbox Cloud Agent Group is currently available for testing your projects to ensure that you are ready for this upgrade of the Production Cloud Agent Group. (Note that projects migrated to the Sandbox Cloud Agent Group cannot be migrated back to the Production Cloud Agent Group because of differing agent versions.

Production Cloud Agent Group updates occur approximately every 30 days; see the Upgrade Schedule for details.

Changes

• Cloud Agent temp storage file size limit is now 50 GB
  When using 10.10 or higher Cloud Agents with a temporary storage target in Cloud Studio or Design Studio, there is now a limit of 50 GB per file. Those who need to create temporary files larger than 50 GB are encouraged to use Private Agents. (Added in 10.10)

Enhancements

• Salesforce API version 47 is now supported
  The Design Studio Salesforce connector now supports Salesforce API version 47 with the use of a 10.11 agent and 10.11 version of Design Studio. When opening an existing Design Studio project that uses this connector and meets both of these version requirements, you will be prompted to upgrade to Salesforce API version 47. This upgrade from version 45 includes new objects supported in both versions 46 and 47. (Added in 10.11)

• OASIS WSS plugin now supports WS-Addressing SOAP headers
  A new version of the OASIS Web Service Security plugin (1.3.0.0) allows you to specify the Web Services Addressing SOAP header elements wsa:To and wsa:Action by defining these parameters using global variables. The updated plugin is available on 10.10 and higher Cloud Agents. (Added in 10.10)

• PrependData plugin can now be used with Linux Agents
  The current versions of the PrependData plugin (1.1.1.0 and 1.3.0.0) can now be used with the Jitterbit Cloud Agent Groups. (Added in 10.10)

Fixes

• FTP/HTTP transfer for large files now works
  When using Cloud Studio or Design Studio to upload a file greater than 2 GB to an FTP or HTTP endpoint, the transfer is now successful. Previously, you may have received an error regarding a libcurl function. The issue was caused by library upgrades in Jitterbit Harmony agent version 8.29 and has been resolved with 10.11 and higher agents. (Added in 10.11)
• FormatDate() can now handle milliseconds and a time zone
  When using the Jitterbit function FormatDate(), you can now format source dates provided in the form of YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.SSSZ, where SSS indicates the milliseconds and Z indicates the time zone, which are seen with certain LDAP implementations. (Added in 10.8)

10.8

• APAC: Released 11 November 2019
• EMEA: Released 12 November 2019
• NA: Released November 13, 2019

This update is an upgrade of the Production Cloud Agent Group from agent version 10.7 to agent version 10.8.

Fixes

• Global variables used in endpoints are now recognized in JavaScript
  Global variables that are used within endpoint configuration fields in Design Studio or Cloud Studio are now recognized when accessed within a Jitterbit function called from JavaScript. Previously, use of JavaScript Jitterbit functions such as Jitterbit.ReadFile and Jitterbit.WriteFile ignored global variables used in an endpoint configuration. (Added in 10.8)

Fixes

• Design Studio JMS Listener now reconnects after interruption
  When using a Design Studio JMS Listen operation, if the connection to the JMS server is interrupted, the agent will try to reconnect to the JMS server every 1 minute, for a maximum of 120 retries. Previously, the listener wouldn't recover after JMS server downtime. (Added in 10.7)
• Scheduled operations now run as expected
  Operations configured to run on a schedule now run reliably. Previously, the scheduler service on the agent would crash intermittently without recovering, leading to scheduled operations being skipped until the service was restarted. (Added in 10.6)
  
• AWS S3 Create plugin now supports KMS encryption
  An updated version of Jitterbit's AWS S3 Create plugin (1.0.1.0) can now be used with S3 buckets using Server-Side Encryption with AWS KMS-Managed Keys (SSE-KMS). Version 1.0.1.0 of the plugin is available on Cloud Agents. (Added in 10.6)

(Added in 10.1)

Changes

• A change made to the Cloud Studio Cherwell connector means it is no longer compatible with 10.0 agents. If using the Cherwell connector, please upgrade to 10.1 or higher agents. (Added in 10.1)

• The Production Cloud Agent Group no longer supports creating new projects using ODBC drivers as of agent version 10.1. This change has already been made for the Sandbox Cloud Agent Group as of version 10.0, effective March 26, 2019. Existing projects using ODBC will continue to work for the time being, but will no longer be supported at a later date. We encourage you to convert existing projects using ODBC to JDBC or migrate them to a Private Agent ahead of this upcoming change. For assistance, contact Jitterbit Support. (Added in 10.1)

Enhancements

• Support for NetSuite's 2019.1 WSDL is now available for use with Jitterbit's NetSuite connectors.

• An issue with the Jitterbit global variable jitterbit.source.preserve_char_whitespace not being honored when transforming from CSV to JSON or from an Oracle Database to XML has been fixed. Setting jitterbit.source.preserve_char_whitespace=true means white space will be preserved and won't be trimmed from the beginning and end of strings in the source.

  The default value for this variable is "false", and white space will be trimmed from the beginning and end of strings in the source. This default value will be used if the variable has not been explicitly set. The default behavior is unchanged from prior releases. (Added in 9.8)

• Fixed an issue with retrieval of the NetSuite custom segments to avoid timeout errors while generating or refreshing the schemas. (Added in 9.7)

• Fixed an issue in the JMS Connector with messages that are missing a JMS destination header. (Added in 9.7)
