FlexDeploy 9.0.0.3 (2/17/2025)

Application Updates

General

• FLEXDEPLOY-13792 – Improved the performance of background processes responsible for automatically managing the mapping of target group property sets.

• FLEXDEPLOY-13838 – Improved performance for build request submissions when a large number of change logs are detected.

Security

• FLEXDEPLOY-12301 - Introduced several password security features for FlexDeploy local users:

  • Passwords now have an expiry date, configurable in system settings.

  • A limit is now set on the number of previous passwords that cannot be repeated, also configurable in system settings.

  • A "Forgot Password" link has been added to the login form, allowing users to reset their passwords independently.

• FLEXDEPLOY-13519 - FlexDeploy now supports Private Key type credentials, enabling the upload of OpenSSL private keys with an optional passphrase, and eliminating the need for a Java KeyStore. However, the Java KeyStore is still required for certain integration instance properties until the underlying plugins are updated to support the new credential type.

  • FlexDeploy now offers the ability to select specific credential types for designated fields. For instance, only "Private Key" credentials are now accepted for some properties of OAuth applications and Integration Instance.

  • Additionally, the Certificate type credential no longer includes a password input, as it is no longer necessary.

Compliance & Audit

• FLEXDEPLOY-13825 - Activation and inactivation of Group is now captured in the Change History report.

These features are applicable exclusively to OIC Gen3.

• Oracle Analytics Cloud

  • FLEXDEPLOY-11705 - Plugin now supports OAuth (Resource Owner & JWT Assertion) in addition to Basic Auth. As part of this, target properties like URL, Username, Password are migrated to Cloud Account which can be configured by customer to use OAuth as necessary.

• Oracle Transactional BI and Oracle Analytics Cloud

  • FLEXDEPLOY-13865 - Updated the sorting logic for Oracle Transactional BI (OTBI) and Oracle Analytics Cloud files. The package files are now sorted in the following order: Folders first, followed by Dashboard Groups, and then all other files.

• Oracle BI, Oracle Transactional BI and Oracle Analytics Cloud

  • FLEXDEPLOY-13630, FLEXDEPLOY-13857 - Resolved issues with discovering the WebCatalog from the backend when folders contained unusual characters such as / \ * ?.

    • Starting with FlexDeploy version 9.0.0.3, a new escape sequence is now used. This means that if your files contain certain characters, you will need to rediscover them with the "Inactivate Missing Files" checkbox checked. After doing so, a new file will appear, with a name that is similar but percent-encoded.

    • Previously, files containing backslashes (\) didn't work with FlexDeploy. Also, any files with colons in their names will be rediscovered with escape sequence and not have any history. Packages containing these files will need to be updated to reflect their new location, and builds will need to be executed again.

• Surround SCM Plugin

  • FLEXDEPLOY-8969 - Resolved the error: "get error: -v option cannot be used for multiple files" in the Surround SCM Integration.

Incompatible Changes

• The Oracle BI, Oracle Transactional BI, and Oracle Analytics Cloud plugins now require Java 8. Please ensure Java is updated on your endpoints as needed. Starting with FlexDeploy version 9.0.0.3, a new escape sequence has been introduced. As a result, if your files contain certain characters, you'll need to rediscover them with the "Inactivate Missing Files" checkbox selected. Once this is done, a new file will appear with a similar name, but percent-encoded. Previously, files containing backslashes (\) were incompatible with FlexDeploy. Files with colons in their names will not retain any previous history, and packages containing such files must be updated to reflect their new locations, and builds will need to be executed again.

• Oracle SaaS FSM Plugin now require Java 17. Please ensure Java is updated on your endpoints as needed.

Automated Rollback

  • Project Version - Source from a previous project version artifact.

  • SCM Revision - Retrieve from the project's configured source control system.

  • Rollback Project File - Select a different project file to build and deploy to roll back. Rollback file is retrieved from project’s source control system. This is project file attribute and can be defaulted as necessary by providing groovy scripts. For example, if file is Fil1.sql then Rollback file can be R_File1.sql. Customers can implement as necessary.

  • Backup Repository - Restore from a previous backup version. Backup repository must be enabled for this option. See plugin guides to see which plugins support taking backups automatically.

  • Rollback Source Type is a project file attribute which can be defaulted from a Groovy script entered on the Project Types screen.

• Rollback execution history, including linked executions and files, can be easily viewed from the Project Execution page, as well as globally from reports.

...

• FlexDeploy Configuration Export/Import allows Projects and Workflows to be seamlessly migrated between 2 separate FlexDeploy servers.
