Upgrade Instructions​

The Digital.ai Release upgrade process you use depends on the version from which you are upgrading, and the version to which you want to go.

For upgrade instructions, see:

Here's what's new with Digital.ai 23.1.0.

Next Generation​ Extensibility—Python SDK (tech preview)​

  • Build and test integrations more quickly in Python
  • Use containers to eliminate external dependencies for integrations
  • Scale integration execution via Remote Runners without provisioning additional server nodes
  • Digital.ai Release 23.1 brings you a Python-based integration SDK—a set of tools that Developers can use to build custom integration plugins.
  • The Python SDK (digitalai-release-sdk 23.1.0) is available in the PyPI repository.
  • The Digital.ai Release Integration Python SDK template project serves as a template for developing new integration plugins.

For more information, see the quickstart for Python SDK Tutorial.

Remote Runner for Running Container-based Tasks​

Release 23.1 brings you the new Remote Runner to efficiently and effectively manage the execution of container-based tasks within a Kubernetes cluster. The idea is to isolate the task execution process with remote runners and provide greater stability and scalability for executing tasks.

Important: The container-based task functionality is not compatible with DB2 database.

Container-based tasks in Release are identifiable via the Capabilities field in the Config tab of tasks. These tasks will run only if you have the Remote Runner set up and connected to Release via the Connections page.

Container

For more information, see Install Remote Runner.

New Application Onboarding Workflows​

  • Digital.ai Release 23.1 brings you the application onboarding workflows, which are a collection of tasks that can be executed in a self-service model.
  • The new application onboarding workflows in Release makes it easier to seamlessly onboard applications from Deploy and Argo CD without needing to work with the Deploy UIs or APIs.
  • Select the workflows from the self-service catalog and execute them step-by-step to interactively onboard applications from Argo CD and Deploy into Release and manage them via a dashboard. App Workflows
  • Once you onboard the applications, you can quickly discover which application versions are deployed to which environments across Deploy and Argo CD.​
  • Deploy's logs are now live-streamed to and visible in Release making it easier to identify and troubleshoot issues.

App Workflows

For more information, see Application Onboarding Overview.

Usability and Performance Enhancements​

Release has introduced some new configurations that can be customized to improve its performance.

Caching in Release​

To enable caching in Release, you must add the following entries to the xl-release.conf file.

xl.cache.ci-reference-types.enabled=true
xl.cache.task-types.enabled=true
xl.cache.release-rows.enabled=true
xl.cache.security.enabled=true
xl.cache.security-user.enabled=true

For more information, see Caching in Release.

Script Execution Backpressure Settings​

Note: Prior to Digital.ai Release 23.1, the Script execution backpressure configuration cannot be turned off. By default, this configuration is enabled.

You can turn the Script execution backpressure setting on or off to delay the execution of scripts in case the Release server is overloaded.

Go to Settings > System settings > Feature flags > Incubating.

Performance Config

Select the Enable check box to turn this feature on.

Release Load Options​

  • Unlike Release 22.3 and earlier with which task dependencies were loaded one-by-one, you can now batch-load task dependencies with Release 23.1 and later.
  • To optimize the number of select statements that are processed, you can batch-load task dependencies along with the Release.
  • This means that the dependencies can be loaded simultaneously with the Release, resulting in more efficient processing.
  • Enable this feature by selecting the Batch load dependencies check box.
  • This setting is enabled by default.

Application Pipeline Tag​

In the Incubating tab, under the DevOps enabled deployments overview section, the Application pipelines templates tag is available by default in the Application pipelines tag field.

Keep the Application pipelines tag handy that is available in the Incubating tab of Feature Flags page. Add this tag to any Release template to run it as a workflow.

Task Drawer Enhancements​

Release has introduced a lot of new enhancements to the new Task Drawer to improve the user experience.

Real-time Task Updates​

Real time updates about events like Comments and Container logs are now displayed in the Task Drawer.

Task Logs

Comments

Additionally, help notification icons are displayed in the Activity and Attachments tabs whenever an event occurs.

Expandable Task Editor to work with Scripts​

Script task editor can now be maximized for better usability.

Script content area

Enhanced Task Details View​

The Task Details view for the Task Drawer is now enhanced to preview and edit the details of a task.

To enable this feature, click System setting > Feature flags, navigate to the Task details (redesigned UI) section and select the Use new Task details version check box. If the Admin clears this check box, individual users cannot enable this feature in the Personal settings screen.

Task Details

Note: The Task Drawer feature was introduced with Release 22.3. However, with every release enhancements are made for better usability. You can switch back to the old view (Task Modal) by clearing the Use new Task details version checkbox.

Enable or Disable Task Drawer for Tasks—Users With Administrator Permissions​

  1. Log in to Digital.ai Release.

  2. On the top-right corner, click Settings > System settings.

    The System settings screen appears.

  3. Click Feature flags from the left-navigation bar.

    Enabled

  4. Select the Stable tab.

    In the New UI for task details section, the Enabled check box is selected by default. This means the new Task Drawer for tasks is enabled by default.

    Note: If you want to use the Task Modal for tasks instead of the new Task Drawer, clear the Enabled check box and click Save.

Enable or Disable Task Drawer for Tasks—Opt Out of Task Drawer​

Digital.ai Release 23.1 and later allows non-admin users to enable or disable the Task Drawer feature. This is possible if and only if your Administrator has enabled the new Task Drawer and you want to opt out of it in favor of the Task Modal.

  1. Log in to Digital.ai Release.

  2. In the Profile page, under the New UI for task details section, clear the Use task drawer check box to opt out from the Task Drawer and use the Task Modal instead.

Improved Tooltips and Icons​

When you hover over the task details icon, the full text about the task type is displayed now.

Hover icon

Additionally, the following task details tool tips and labels are updated:

  • Close icon
  • Flag icon
  • Script icon
  • Lock icon
  • Documentation icon
  • Failure handler

Additional Improvements​

When you update the Scheduling and Conditions tabs in the Task Drawer, small help icons in the form of badges will be displayed.

When the Check environment availability toggle is disabled and you hover over it, the toggle must be in cursor:not-allowed state.

Task Drawer Updates

Furthermore, the task details' tooltips and labels have been improved to provide a better user experience.

Release Flow Editor Views Moved to the Sidebar​

Other Performance Enhancements​

  • Reduced the server load when navigating through various Tasks screens.
  • Improved the way Teams and Permissions screen handles a large number of users when it comes to task and team assignment.
  • Observed increase in performance by implementing an experimental option to cache security data in the server.

Limit Folder Depth in Release​

A nested folder structure with more than five or six levels becomes cumbersome to deal with and can adversely impact the performance and lead to the following issues:

  • General slowness
  • High CPU usage
  • CLI tasks become unreliable
  • Create release task is not usable

Configure the folder depth in Release via Settings > System Settings > Feature Flags > Set Limits within release section:

  • Select the Enable checkbox to enable this feature and limit the folder depth based on the value set in the Max folder depth field.
  • Set the folder depth value in the Max folder depth field.

Note: The default folder depth is set to 5. However, admin users can increase the folder depth to more than 5 based on the requirements.

Folder Depth Limit in Release

Limit Minimal Trigger Polling Interval​

Currently, the minimum polling interval for triggers is 1 second. This causes increased load in Release and other third-party systems. To overcome this performance issue, the minimum polling interval for triggers is changed to 60 seconds.

Configure the minimum polling interval in Release via Settings > System Settings > Feature Flags > Set Limits within release section:

  • Set the minimum polling interval value in the Min trigger interval field.

Limit Minimal Trigger Polling Interval

Skip Nested Variable Interpolation for Text Type Variables​

You can now skip interpolation of values and prevent Digital.ai Release from creating variables out of it for Text variable types.

Configure this setting via Variables > Create variable dialog > Prevent variable interpolation checkbox. This checkbox is enabled only when you select Text from the Type drop-down list.

Note: It is applicable only for Text variables. It can be set at Release, Folder, and Global variable levels.

Nested Variable Interpolation

View String Type Variable Values in String Type Fields​

Text type fields, by default, fetch and show the values of the String type variables added to them. Text type fields show the variable's name in case the variable has no values assigned to it.

Here's a Text type field—${title}—for example, with a value assigned to it.

Release variable string

Here's how the Release Title text field shows the value of the String type variable when you add the variable to the Release Title field.

Release variable string value

Time Frame (Last 7 days) Added for Audit Reports​

A new value is added to the Time period drop-down list to generate Release audit report for the last 7 days. You can now generate an audit report by selecting the last 7 days time period, adding a filter, clicking Preview results and then clicking Generate report.

Time period release audit report

Also, the last 7 days filter is the default setting for the Dashboards and Value stream sections under the Reports group.

Dashboard

Value stream

Set Expiration Period for Personal Access Token​

You can now set an expiration period for the personal access token (PAT) using the Expiration dropdown in the Personal access tokens screen.

On the top-right corner, click Profile avatar > Access tokens. In the Personal access tokens screen, enter a token name, select the number of days for token expiration, and click Generate. A new PAT with an expiration date is generated.

PAT Expiry

Expiration days can be set as 30 days, 60 days, or 1 year.

Note: You can select No expiration from the dropdown to avoid expiration of the PAT.

Log Retention Policy for Container-based Tasks​

Logs in general are purged to free up the hard disk space. The Log Retention Policy is now introduced for Container-based tasks to delete the task execution logs that are stored on the server.

You can set the no of days for deleting the task execution logs in Release via Settings > General > Task execution log purging section:

  • Set the no of days for deleting the task execution logs in the Delete task execution logs older than field.

Note: The default value is 10 days, and the maximum number of days the logs can be retained is 45 days. The logs are purged only if the task is completed or skipped.

Log Retention Policy

Reordered Sidebar Navigation for Template/Release​

The sidebar navigation for templates and releases have been reordered for better user experience.

Template

Template

Release

Release

Enhanced Release Breadcrumbs​

Click the release name in the breadcrumbs, and it now redirects you to the Release flow editor screen.

Breadcrumbs

Added Reference Variable Type​

This variable type is used to support Http server connections as a reference in multiple tasks of the same release. In the Referenced type drop-down list, select the relevant HTTP server connection for which you want to create a variable. This variable type is only available at the Release level and not at the Folder level.

Create Release variable

Support Personal Access Tokens for LDAP Users​

Earlier, personal access token (PAT) was supported only for internal users. With this EA Release, PAT is supported for LDAP users too.

PAT LDAP

Enhanced Remote Completion Task​

When the Remote completion task is assigned to a user, the action required email to complete or fail the task is received by the user. Also, a valid notification message (Email sent to user(s): testuser) is displayed in the Activity tab.

Remote completion task issue

However, when the same Remote completion task is assigned to a team, the action required email to complete or fail the task is not received by the user. Also, a failure notification message (Notification failed. Reason: 'Task owner's email address and team members email addresses are not configured or not whitelisted) is displayed in the Activity tab.

Note: In this case, the team must be linked to a global role, and this global role is assigned to multiple users/principals. These users/principals will receive an email stating that the Remote completion task has started and is assigned to you. But, the action required email to complete or fail the task is not sent.

This issue is now fixed, and action required emails are received when the Remote completion task is assigned to a team also.

Enhanced Connections page​

The Connections page is now enhanced for better user experience using new components. You can access them via Global or Folder levels.

New Connections Page

Version Control Enhancements​

When versioning folders, all YAML files used to be dumped into a single file named Releasefile.yaml. In order to track changes for separate entities like Templates, Patterns, and so on, and to view them separately the Releasefile.yaml file is now split into separate entities. You can configure this versioning style under the Version control settings.

Enhancements to Triggers​

You have the option to set the maximum number of trigger failures that can occur before a trigger is disabled. To configure this value, navigate to Settings > System settings > Feature Flags. In the Set Limits within release section, you can enter a value or select an option from the drop-down menu for the Consecutive trigger failures field.

Task Drawer Updates

Furthermore, when a trigger is disabled, a notification is sent to the System Administrator.

Enhanced XL CLI​

List of enhancements to XL CLI in 23.1.0:

  • Added support for air-gapped installation of Deploy and Release.
  • Added support for custom repositories in the install and upgrade wizards.

Other Enhancements​

  • You can now find the identifier of the folder in which the Release is running.
  • Improved performance on folders, users, roles, and permissions screens.
  • Caching support improved for users, roles, and permissions.
  • Improved performance in user assignment when there are bulk users (in thousands).
