Detailed Version
Refresh Token Problem on Azure DevOps
When the Azure DevOps token expires, the system returns a 203 status code instead of the expected 401. Due to this mismatch, the application fails to trigger the refresh token process, leading to authentication issues. The application logic relied on a 401 response to initiate the token refresh process. The unexpected 203 status code bypassed this logic. Updated the token validation logic to handle 203 status codes and initiate the refresh token process as needed. Conducted testing to ensure compatibility with both 203 and 401 status codes in various scenarios.
Integration Logo Missing
The integration logo failed to appear in the user interface, impacting visual consistency and user experience. The logo asset was either missing or misconfigured in the codebase, leading to a failure in rendering the logo. The logo asset was restored to the designated storage location. Code references were corrected to ensure the logo is properly displayed.
Disable Autom Run Issue
Users could bypass the disabled state of an Autom instance and manually run it using the "Run Autom" option in the drop-down menu when a schedule trigger was configured. The application did not check the disabled status of the Autom instance during manual execution from the menu. Logic was added to validate the disabled status before displaying or enabling the "Run Autom" option. Now, the "Run Autom" button will be disabled or hidden for any Autom marked as disabled.
Database Max Connection Error Crashing DB Microservice
When the max_connections limit in MySQL was set to a very low value (e.g., 1), exceeding this limit caused the database microservice to terminate instead of handling the error gracefully. In one test scenario, running an Autom that created 17 simultaneous connections resulted in the microservice crashing. The database microservice did not handle MySQL connection limit errors (Too many connections) properly, leading to unhandled exceptions and eventual termination of the service. Enhanced error handling for database connection failures caused by exceeding the max_connections limit. Implemented safeguards to prevent the database microservice from crashing, ensuring proper recovery and retry mechanisms when connection limits are exceeded. Added logging and alerts to monitor connection usage and notify administrators of potential connection bottlenecks.
Improved Clarity for RESTful Errors
Errors in RESTful calls were classified based solely on the statusCode being greater than 400, without additional details about the root cause. When the response from the service was not logged into the output field, users were left without sufficient error information for debugging. The service response was not properly recorded in the output field when the field was left empty, causing a lack of visibility into error details. Enhanced error logging to ensure that all RESTful responses are recorded in the output field, even if the field is initially empty. Updated the system to provide clearer error messages by including detailed information from the service response in the error output. Added fallback logic to handle cases where the service response is incomplete or malformed, ensuring meaningful error messages are displayed.
Dynamic List Issue in MS Teams
The dynamic list in MS Teams failed to refresh or display updated data, leading to outdated or incorrect information being shown to users. The backend logic responsible for fetching and updating the dynamic list did not trigger correctly, resulting in static or stale data being displayed. Updated the dynamic list fetching logic to ensure proper triggering and retrieval of the latest data. Improved synchronization between the MS Teams interface and the backend data source to guarantee real-time updates. Conducted testing to validate dynamic list updates across various scenarios and use cases.
Action Label Display Issue
Action labels with long names disrupted the UI when an Autom was reimported with an excessively long name. The truncation logic was not triggered for imported action labels, leading to unrestrained text display in the UI. Adjusted the label rendering logic to truncate labels exceeding the character limit and append “...” for clarity. Improved the overall UI behavior to ensure consistent truncation of long text across various components. Introduced a character limit threshold for action labels, ensuring all labels fit neatly within the allocated UI space. Added real-time label validation during imports to prevent display issues.
Error Configuration "Go To" Action Issue
In Autom workflows, when an error configuration was enabled, the associated "Go To" action failed to execute. The issue did not occur when the error configuration was disabled, indicating a conflict between the error handling mechanism and the "Go To" logic. Logs displayed the error: "The destination action in the goto action was not found." The system could not locate the destination action referenced in the "Go To" step when error configuration was active, possibly due to a misalignment in the workflow execution sequence. Updated the workflow execution logic to ensure the destination action in the "Go To" step is properly resolved, even when error configurations are enabled. Enhanced error handling mechanisms to maintain compatibility with "Go To" actions during error-configured scenarios. Improved logging to provide clearer insights into such scenarios and aid in debugging.
Disabled Autom Schedule Error
When an Autom instance was scheduled while disabled (or before being disabled), the schedule was not halted. Upon reaching the scheduled execution time, the Autom instance would attempt to run, resulting in an error, and the next schedule date was not set (as expected). However, the error message created confusion, as it did not accurately represent the issue. The system allowed scheduled executions for disabled Autom instances without proper validation, leading to incorrect behavior and misleading error logs. Updated the logic to prevent schedules from triggering for disabled Autom instances. Added validation to ensure that when an Autom is disabled, any active schedules are automatically halted. Improved error messaging to reflect the actual state of the Autom instance and provide clarity.
Default Value Update for Webhook and API Trigger Parameters
Previously, these parameters remained null, causing potential integration issues when API consumers expected structured data. With this update, the default empty object ({}) ensures:
Improved API reliability, eliminating the need for additional
nullchecks.Consistent data structure, maintaining a standardized format across API-triggered executions.
Better integration compatibility, preventing unexpected errors.
This change enhances stability and predictability in API-triggered Autom executions, ensuring smoother and more reliable workflows.
Fix for Expired Client Credential Password Refresh
Previously, if an Autom attempted to execute with an expired client credential password, the system attempted to refresh the password using the refresh token. However, this process encountered an error, causing the Autom execution to fail instead of automatically renewing the credential.
With this fix:
When an Autom runs with an expired client credential password, the system will now correctly use the refresh token to obtain a new password.
The error handling process has been improved to ensure a seamless refresh operation without interruptions.
The update enhances Autom stability, preventing failures due to expired credentials.
This fix ensures smoother execution of Autom processes that rely on client credential authentication, eliminating disruptions caused by expired passwords.
Resolved Business Impact Estimator Data Handling Issues
Business Impact Estimator data was not updating properly when edited. Optimized data handling to ensure smooth calculations and updates.
Fixed Data Persistence in Business Impact Estimator Calculator
Some saved calculations were not retained after page reloads. Improved persistence mechanisms to ensure data remains intact.
Validation & Sorting Fixes
Some required fields were missing in Business Impact Estimator calculations. Implemented validation rules to ensure completeness before saving. Business Impact Estimator reports did not always sort correctly. Adjusted sorting logic to prioritize total value sorting correctly.
Resolved Invalid Filename Error During Delete File Operations at Mate Drive
A bug was resolved where file or folder names containing invalid characters (e.g., :) caused errors during project creation or deletion. The system now sanitizes file names before processing, ensuring compatibility with the file system and preventing such errors.
Updated created_at Logic
created_at LogicThe created_at field for pending operations now reflects the start time of the operation. Previously, it incorrectly displayed the time the operation was moved to the pending state. Adjusted the backend logic to ensure that created_at is updated with the actual start time of operation processing. Improves accuracy in operation tracking and provides consistent data for analysis.
Filter Button and Input Field Enhancements
Filter Button Design: The filter button has been redesigned for better visibility and accessibility, ensuring users can quickly apply filters to refine their search results.
Multiselect and Contains Input Placement:
The Multiselect field now appears in a more structured layout, improving selection efficiency.
The Contains input is positioned for easier text-based filtering, aligning with best UI practices.
Filtered Sections Placement: After applying filters, the filtered sections are now displayed in a structured manner, ensuring users can easily identify the active filters and adjust them as needed.
These enhancements improve the user experience by streamlining filter interactions and making the search functionality more effective.
Filter Indicator for Applied Filters
Previously, applied filters were not visually indicated, making it difficult for users to track which filters were active. With this enhancement, users will now see a filter chip that clearly represents the applied filter state.
Filter Chip Display: When a filter is applied, a chip appears below the tabs, showing the number of filtered columns.
Edit and Delete Options:
Edit: Users can modify the filter directly from the chip.
Delete: Clicking the delete icon prompts a confirmation message before removal. If confirmed, the filter is deleted, and the UI updates accordingly.
User Experience & Accessibility:
The summary section is designed to be responsive, ensuring proper display across different screen sizes.
Accessibility improvements include tooltips or labels for delete icons to assist users in understanding their functionality.
This update enhances filter usability, providing a more intuitive experience by ensuring users can easily view, edit, and remove applied filters.
Enhancements to Dashboard Widgets: Description, Time Range, and Symbols
Previously, dashboard widgets lacked key visual indicators, making it harder for users to interpret data at a glance. To enhance usability, the following updates have been implemented:
Description Addition: Each widget now includes a description that provides meaningful context about its displayed data.
Time Range Indicator: Widgets now display a time range or percentage gain where applicable, allowing users to track data trends over time.
Symbol Integration: Relevant widgets now include symbols to visually represent data more effectively.
Custom Token Refresh Status Code for OAuth 2.0 Connections
Previously, when an OAuth token expired, the system expected a 401 status code in response to an API request. However, some applications return a different status code when a token expires, causing the automatic refresh process to fail.
With this update:
Users can customize the status code that triggers a token refresh, instead of relying solely on
401.If an application responds with a different status code (e.g.,
403,498, etc.) upon token expiration, this option allows the system to recognize it and refresh the token automatically.This improvement enhances compatibility with various OAuth-based integrations, reducing manual interventions and ensuring seamless authentication renewal.
By implementing this feature, OAuth 2.0 connections in the OAuth App Library now offer greater flexibility and reliability, improving token management for diverse API environments.
Better Data Accuracy & Validation
Stronger validation rules to prevent incomplete or incorrect entries. Automated record updates for real-time accuracy. Reports now sort correctly based on total value. Prevents data inconsistencies and ensures precise financial reporting.
