Upgrade Notes

You can find out about the major technical changes in this version by consulting the upgrade notes here

For Functional Users

Login page, a new style

The login page has been modified to make it easier for users to view. Depending on the settings, the login page offers username and password authentication and/or single sign-on.

Easier to add documents

New ways of manually adding a document to FlowerDocs have been added to reduce the number of actions users have to perform, saving a significant amount of time.

To add a document to FlowerDocs without a specific context, you can now drag and drop a file from your workstation to the ‘+’ button on the banner.

Depending on the settings, it is also possible to add a document directly to a virtual folder using the ‘Add document’ button or by dragging and dropping directly into the file plan area. The new document is automatically indexed in the same way as the folder to simplify indexing and avoid errors.

* Depending on the settings, the “+” button or the “Add a document” button will appear in a virtual folder.

Full-text search, a complete use

Full-text search has been optimised, allowing the use of “ to perform strict searches and extract text from zip documents.

The word or words being searched for are also automatically highlighted in the viewer, so users can quickly see why the document has appeared in the search results.

* As a reminder, full text search can be enabled in the settings.

Optimised versions management

You can restore a version directly from the version you are viewing. This makes it quicker and easier to restore the version you want.

Serial processing

Serial processing is available by opening it in the same window or assigning it to yourself from the context menu, to suit all applications.

This function is not available when opening in a new window, to avoid errors or misunderstandings between different processing sessions.

Faster access to product information

Information about the product, such as the version installed, is moved from the avatar menu to the menu.

The ARender viewer, improvements and new features

This new version of the viewer offers enhanced security and the following new features:

  • Disable information notifications (blue) to make it easier to consult documents. Error messages are always present to warn of abnormal behaviour.

  • Integration with Mixpanel, which provides anonymous usage data to the Uxopian team, enabling data-driven improvements to ARender. No personal or sensitive information is collected, ensuring full compliance with the RGPD, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and other global privacy standards.
    By centralising this anonymous data, we gain valuable insight into feature usage, enabling us to prioritise updates and deliver meaningful improvements for all users.
    You can change this default configuration by following the documentation here

Transparency First :
Our approach to data collection and usage is fully documented, ensuring clarity and trust : More about Product Analytics

For integrators

Administration

Addition of an Asynchronous column in the Operations Handlers table to facilitate analysis.

Virtual folder

A new parameter has been added to limit the document classes created directly from a virtual folder: children

To find out more, see the upgrade notes here

CLM

The Command Line Manager (CLM) has been modified to make it easier to use when updating the data model with an import. The scope.xml file is no longer mandatory, which means that the settings made for the teams can be retained.
Documentation available here.

New endpoints for documents

Two new REST APIs are available for :

  • Create a document with the associated file in a single call instead of successive calls: create a temporary file, create a document, then link the temporary file to the document : /core/rest/documents/unique

  • Update a document to add a file in a single call instead of successive calls: Create a temporary file, then link the temporary file to the document : /core/rest/documents/{id}/unique

These two new APIs will make it easier to create or update a document. They will also facilitate error management for applications using FlowerDocs services.

Login page, SSO activation only

The configuration of the login page allows you to activate only the SSO (Single Sign On) connection to enhance the security of the platform To find out more, see the upgrade notes here.

For operators

Performance enhancement, User tag

Reviewed the operation of user tags to reduce the number of calls to the directory to retrieve users when populating lists with users.

When a user is deleted, all their data is deleted

Users can add documents, tasks or folders to their Favourites, save searches and customise FlowerDocs to suit their needs. This information is unique to the user and is therefore deleted when the user is removed from FlowerDocs to avoid storing orphaned information.

A user’s saved searches that have been shared with other users will be kept so as not to interfere with their use.

OpenSearch, using alias

In order to facilitate operations, OpenSearch indexes are now queried via their aliases instead of their names. It is still possible to query the index directly, but this is deprecated. To find out more, see the upgrade note here.

End points

  • A new API has been created to make it easier to purge the GUI cache : /{gui}/rest/caches/{cacheNames}. More details here

  • The API for checking the status of Core machines no longer requires authentication, to facilitate the platform’s monitoring mechanisms : {core}/actuator/status

Physical folder - Whatever the configuration of the user workstation (window size), child folders or documents are displayed correctly. TMAFLW-540
Virtual folder - Whatever the configuration of the user workstation, the list of documents is displayed. TMAFLW-594 TMAFLW-866
Virtual folder - The ratio between the panel of the indexing form and the panel of the viewer or list of documents, set in the configuration file, is respected whatever the configuration of the workstation. TMAFLW-650

Known issues

  • The new endpoints for creating or saving a document by directly associating it with a file have does not work with Swagger.
  • Highlighting the searched word(s) in the viewer after a full-text search does not work the first time you view the page (first opening of open in new window). If you open the page a second time or refresh it, the words will be highlighted without having to search in the viewer.
