Released: March 2023
This release contains the following new features:
A new built-in connector for Microsoft SharePoint is available.
A new built-in connector for Google Drive is available.
The add-on was updated to ensure compatibility with the new TIBCO EBX® staging feature. Use this feature to migrate configuration settings from one environment to another. See the EBX® documentation for more details. The available staging elements for the EBX Digital Asset Manager Add-on are the Digital Asset Components (DACs). Staging a DAC configuration will also stage any related Drive configurations, Image configurations, etc.
The add-on was updated to ensure compatibility with the way TIBCO EBX® now handles URL encoding. Please see the EBX® release notes for more details.
The ability to create folders in Drives and move assets between folders was added. This enables asset organization and classification. Folders can also be shared and downloaded.
User Experience enhancements:
An advanced search mode is now available to search on inclusive or exclusive criteria types.
Multiple file extensions and digital asset types can now be applied when filtering assets in a Drive.
It is no longer possible to input a last updated date or creation date that is greater than the current date.
Asset URLs are now optimized when sharing the asset via email.
When choosing a Drive, you can now search for the desired Drive in the menu.
REST API updates:
A new V2 REST API was added that includes:
An endpoint for the TIBCO EBX GO Add-on to retrieve asset information.
Endpoints to select and search for assets of multiple types, extensions, and criteria matches.
The V1 REST API can now physically delete assets. This includes assets uploaded by the current user and other users.
As the add-on is undergoing revision, the documentation's images and descriptions of some components might not exactly match the current UI.
This release includes the following changes to functionality:
The permissions for deleting and deactivating assets were decoupled. When a user's permission to delete assets is restricted, they can still deactivate assets.
The permission setting Edit other user's assets is now coupled with the ability to deactivate assets. When this setting is enabled, users can deactivate assets uploaded by other users and vice versa.
