Digital.ai Agility Sync 21.3 Release Notes​

Here's a list of what's new and what's fixed with Agility Sync 21.3.

Rally—Agility data migration (Beta)​

  • You can now create a mapping solely for the purpose of migrating your Rally assets to Digital.ai Agility.
  • This is a beta feature in Agility Sync 21.3. Do not use this in a production setup.
  • While the mapping you create can migrate the Rally data to Agility (and not vice versa), you cannot have the mapping do live data sync between Rally and Agility.

While all other mapping features are supported, the following Additional Mapping features are not supported for Rally—Agility data migration:

  • Live Sync
  • Work Item Change Detection
  • Dependencies
  • Conflict Resolution

For more information, see Create a Mapping to Migrate Assets from Rally to Digital.ai Agility (Beta).

Bug fixes​

Fixed an issue with Agility — Jira integration, due to which the Jira work item in Jira gets deleted post sync when you delete an attachment from the Agility work item in Agility.

Digital.ai Agility Sync 21.2 Release Notes​

Here's a list of new features and enhancements that's part of Agility Sync 21.2:

Agility—Salesforce integration​

Agility Sync supports integration between Agility and Salesforce.

Agility Sync supports the following Salesforce assets:

  • Case
  • Opportunity
  • Lead
  • Account

Salesforce project mapping is not supported. You must select "No Projects" from the Projects drop-down list when you integrate Agility—Salesforce.

For more information, see Agility—Salesforce Integration.

Agility Sync Plugin Management​

  • Native plugin management within Agility Sync to add and delete new application instances.
  • Click Systems from the Agility Sync home page to go to the Manage Plugin page. You can add new instances of the following tools from the Manage Plugin page.
    • Digital.ai Agility
    • Jira
    • TeamForge
    • ServiceNow
    • Azure DevOps/TFS
    • Micro Focus ALM/Quality Center
    • Salesforce/SFDC

You can also test the connection between Agility Sync and the tool's instance from the Manage Plugin page.

Do not edit the instances you added using Agility Sync's native Manage Plugin page using Continuum's Manage Plugin page.

For more information, see Configure the Agility Sync Plugins.

Export and Import Agility Sync Mappings​

You can now select and export the mappings you created in Agility Sync. The ability to export Agility Sync mappings comes in handy when you have multiple instances of Agility Sync or if you want to export a mapping that you created in your test setup and import the same in your production setup.

Import Mapping

For more information, see Export/Import Mappings.

Resync All Failed sync events​

Instead of resyncing failed sync events one at a time, you can now Resync All failed sync events in one go from the Logs page. This feature comes in handy at times when you find a single root cause leading to multiple sync failures. Earlier, in addition to fixing the root cause of sync failures, you must resync all the failed sync events one by one, which was tedious. Now, with the ability to Resync All, you can resync all the failed sync events in one go (clicking the Health issues from the Mapping List page shows Logs page with the list of all failed sync events).

Auto Map fields when you create a mapping for Iteration and Sprints​

Auto Map

Sync Specific Workitem​

In addition to text type fields, "Contains" and "Not Contains" comparison operators are available for list type and multi-select fields.
