Version 2.9 release notes

  • Added support for Active Directory Single Sign On.
  • Added support for SQL Server Windows Authentication.
  • Added support for GitHub and GitLab source control services, with file linking from server-side scripting.
  • Added support for server-side filters on MongoDB, DynamoDB, and Cassandra databases. Other NoSQL databases will be supported in a future release.
  • Added database record caching for retrieved records. Enable caching with a TTL in the service config and purge or refresh on demand.
  • Added support for HAS_ONE relationship. This is similar to HAS_MANY but the foreign key is the primary key or has a unique constraint.
  • Now allowing DF_SCRIPTING_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL in .env config to be either "http" (default) or "https" for internal API calls from Node.js and Python scripts.
  • Fixed handling of parameters when a stored procedure is not on the default schema.
  • Fixed server-side filters so that they adhere to the requestor type API or Script.
  • Enhanced usability of the base api/v2 output for available services.
