:rocket: Alpha Platform Current Release Notes – 25.09-30.0.0.0-current

Release Period: June 13, 2025 - September 30, 2025

This release brings the current channel release upto-date with the LTS release from June 2025 to Sep 2025.

This comprehensive release notes document summarizes all features, improvements, bug fixes, and migrations from Alpha Platform releases 25.06-13.0.0.0-lts through 25.09-22.0.0.0-lts.

:new_button: New Features

Pull Tasks Directly (APS-2376)

Empowers users to pull tasks directly, select groups, specify task count, and ensures transparency and efficiency. This feature requires RabbitMQ setup to function properly.

Task Check-In/Check-Out Configuration (APS-2308)

Added configuration option to control task check-in and check-out behavior. Users can now open case details without auto check-in and perform manual check-in/check-out from case details page with feature flag support.

Dev Mode UI Banner (APS-2506)

Added UI indication banner for development mode in Case Manager UI and Workflow Studio to prevent accidental enablement in non-dev environments.

Enhanced Master Data Configuration (APS-2585)

Reels master data configuration from Workflow Studio now supports tags instead of just Entity IDs, allowing users to fetch master data based on Version or Tag selection.

Custom Header Injection via Deployment Environment Variables (APS-1716)

Enables custom headers to be added to all HTTP requests via environment variable configuration. This is a community contribution by Sagar V.

Supported services:

  • alpha-case-service
  • alpha-admin-service
  • alpha-case-manager-ui
  • alpha-task-distributor

Usage: The Delegate API forwards headers to other services while preserving original caller identity if headers are already present.

:hammer_and_wrench: Improvements

Copy Icon on Inboxes (APS-2190)

Added a copy icon next to inbox entries to streamline content copying.

Project Import Validation (APS-2494)

Enhanced project import process to validate tenant existence during import for fresh database installations.

Display Value Configuration (APS-2661)

Added configuration for dropdown and radio button display values in view-only mode, allowing choice between label and value display.

Column Translation Support (APS-2694)

Fixed column name translations in customize column popup to show correct language values.

Inbox Entry Sorting

Added the ability to sort inbox entries by ‘created_at’ by setting environment variables.

SSL Certificate Configuration for DB Connections

Added the ability to configure SSL certificate for database connections by setting environment variables across multiple services.

Bandwidth Calculation Configuration

Users can now configure specific task names to be excluded from bandwidth calculation. This skips bandwidth calculation for specified tasks when allocated and submitted.

Task Cron Service Enhancement

Updated date comparison in task query to include lower bound when querying tasks for syncing to enquiry.

Enquiry Improvements

  • APS-1993: Removed the requirement to “enable” enquiry for generating enquiry tables, ensuring tables are created for My Task, Group Task, and Team Task.
  • APS-1994: Ensured enquiry works even when the case model is empty.
  • APS-1995: Ensured enquiry works when a project is imported, without requiring a call to the generate-enquiry-config API.
  • APS-1818: Automated enquiry table generation when saving inbox filters in Development Mode and deprecated the manual Generate Tables API call.
