Features/Enhancements
Background Job Processing & Monitoring
Platform 6.6.0.0 enhances asynchronous job processing with an improved user experience and monitoring capabilities. With the introduction of two new Job Monitoring sections, administrators can now see the job history for the entire tenant, and regular users now have access to see the jobs they have initiated. These tables include a link to exported list view or report files if applicable. Additional shared properties - Monitoring Storage Purge and Monitoring Table Purge allow Master Administrators to configure how long job history and exported content is available.
Application developers now have more options for how and when they can access their previously generated files with custom email templates. In prior versions, the content of exported HTML or plain-text reports would be included directly in the email body. Now, these reports will be sent as an authenticated link like all other report types. This change does not apply to batch job reports. This applies to Import, Export, Mass Update and Group Status update jobs also. This new feature will save time and increase efficiency when handling large-scale activities.
Furthermore, the new UI notification center displays notifications on completed jobs or jobs with errors. This provides additional insight for users.
For detailed information, see Monitoring setup, Exporting from views and reports, Email templates and UI Notification Center.
