      List of release notes 2024.6

      March 20, 2024

      Over the last two weeks, we have been working on improvements to the platform. In this blog post, you can see a simple list of what has been changed, updated, and/or what bugs have been fixed. Read more about the release notes here.

      New features & improvements

      Pages

      • We enhanced the ordering of page variable settings in the modal that appears on create and update of a variable. Now the model selector comes first and the name field as second, which allows us to pre-fill the name field with the name of the chosen model for you. This makes your life a bit easier here.

      • Page variable data can now be used as default values inside the following components: Select, Autocomplete, Radio, Checkbox group, and Multi-autocomplete inputs.

      Data

      • We improved the developers experience within the Data IDE:

        • When you create a new model, the selected model type is based on the overview you're at at that moment. So when you're currently on the remote model overview and want to add a new model, the remote model type will be selected.

        • When you are in a model, the back button redirects you to the correct overview. So again, when you're in the detail view of a remote model and click the back button, you will be redirected to the remote model overview.

      • Create application: Start from scratch now comes with management for users and roles to simplify the first building experience.

      • Exporting company data from the company overview now includes registered Betty Blocks users and their access within the organizations and applications.

      • Application templates can now be shared within the company and made available for all organizations associated with the company.

      • Permissions are now displayed in categories on company and organization level.

      • The following organization permissions have been added to improve the access management:

        • Promote application to template

        • Remove organization user

        • Invite users to application

        • Change application user roles

        • Remove application user

      Fixes

      Pages

      • Components. Rich text editor inputs that were fetching their default value from a page variable did not work as expected. The component did not resolve the default value as a result it was left empty. This is fixed now.

      • Page variables. The page variable filter option did not have a shadow box surrounding the entire filter. This is fixed now.

      • Page variables. In the page variable filter option, the buttons for the AND / OR filter statements were cut off in the user interface. This is fixed now.

      Data

      • The case sensitivity bug that appeared on the private clouds when you are searching for models in the Data IDE is now solved.

      • Updating your password via the My Betty Blocks profile page now correctly syncs this with the Internal Betty Blocks authentication login.

        • Using page variables in the multi-rule display logic component option.

        • Using component-state in the multi-rule display logic component option.

        • Implementing a fix when search through page variable model properties where the model has more than 50 items (this has unexpected behavior currently).

      Data

      • Expected in this quarter:

        • Next up, we will work on supporting nesting in schema models. With it, you no long need to adjust your Swagger file to make use of nested schema models.
