Release highlights

  • New Feature: You can now use Jitterbit global variables as sources and targets. The new type of source and target allow users to read and write directly from/to global variables in their operations, bypassing any extra workaround they had to do in the past, such as temporary or local storage.

  • New Feature: Added support for the Salesforce Summer '16 release (aka SFDC API v37).

  • New Feature: Cloud Deploy History can now be viewed via Harmony website (WMC Projects page) and Studio. The deploy history keeps track of who deployed the project and when, as well of what specific items were changed.

  • Improvement: New trial users will now be given a default environment right away so they can go directly into the Studio, create projects and run operations without having to set-up, configure, or provision anything prior.

  • Improvement: The On-Premises Gateway now only requires a single domain name which reduces cost and simplifies configuration.

  • Improvement: The Support Portal has been updated to improve the flow and ease of use. See Using the Jitterbit support portal for more details.

  • Fix: OData and custom API IP ranges are now consistent when creating new APIs through the WMC.

Agent

  • New Feature: You can now use Jitterbit global variables as sources and targets. The new type of source and target allow users to read and write directly from/to global variables in their operations, bypassing any extra workarounds, such as temporary or local storage.

  • Improvement: Studio no longer prompts you to upgrade to a newer Salesforce version, if you are using v33 or older, and use the 'Restore Project From Cloud' feature.

  • Improvement: The Studio now displays a warning message when closing or switching projects if the current project has local changes that have not yet been deployed to the Cloud.

  • Improvement: Creating a JPK without credentials now retains some non-sensitive and user helpful properties that used to be blanked out, such as the Folder Path of Local File Sources and Targets.

  • Improvement: Request headers such as 'if-match' are now properly forwarded to the Jitterbit API platform and those headers are passed through to the operation.

  • Fix: The Studio's 'Deploy-With-Backup' option now uploads a backup only if the deployment itself was successful.

  • Fix: When connecting to a QuickBooks Endpoint, your password is now required.

  • Fix: Fixed bug that could cause a new Jitterbit Connect operation to not appear in the project tree, until the project was closed or re-opened in Studio.
