Appliance 1705.00 Release Notes

A new API method getDocumentAnnotationsUrl has been introduced, allowing you to get the specific URL you need to annotate a particular PDF document. The getToken API method now supports authenticating a user who has 2FA enabled. Improved support for file download range-requests, with memory optimizations for certain clouds.

Where users are using tools (e.g. Desktop or Mobile tools) to execute a logged action, the name of the tool will be displayed in the Audit Logs. Where a document is edited in Zoho Office, the Audit Logs now includes this. Where an upload has been performed using 'direct upload', this is now reflected in the Audit Logs. Where an upload is encrypted with Personal Encryption, the Audit Logs now reflect this.

Google Authenticator is now supported as an 2FA method. The organisation can now control whether users with 2-Factor Authentication are allowed to authenticate with the protocol gateways (CloudS3, CloudDav, CloudFTP) Appliance appladmin user can now enable 2FA on their account When 'auto configured' providers are used in conjunction with an Authentication System, message is displayed on first web login indicating that the user's storage is being added. Added support nested groups within LDAP authentication systems SAML is now available as an external authentication system, in addition to our existing LDAP and Active Directory support (previously released in a service pack for Appliance v10).

Editing the same document in real-time with colleagues is now possible with our Zoho Office integration (previously released in a service pack for Appliance v10). Document feedback and approval workflow are now available (previously released in a service pack for Appliance v10). Users can now mention each other when commenting on a file (previously released in a service pack for Appliance v10).

Your team encryption keys can now be stored in HashiCorp Vault, enabling you to use the key in other areas of your business. We now provide a method for Team Admins to export their encryption initialization vector for use with our standalone decryption tool. You can now enable Team Encryption on nominated folders

The passwords to shared links you create can now be sent via SMS (using Twilio). You can now specify your own custom domain for short URLs instead of Bit.ly. Dropfolders are now mobile friendly. You can now create shared links that allow other users to edit the shared file with Zoho Office. They must have an account in order to edit.

Where clouds can support 'direct upload', a granular option on each cloud provider has been added to allow you to turn this on or off. You can now enable or disable trash on each cloud provider. Real Time mode can now be enabled or disabled on each cloud provider. You can now enable versioning of your files, but hide the versions from your users. The comments timeline of a file now indicates when new versions were created (previously released in a service pack for Appliance v10).

CloudS3 Now supports v2 and v4 signature formats CloudDav Now has better support for MS Office, preventing MS Office from repeatedly re-prompting the user for their credentials. Storage Providers

Improved the choices and behaviour of file editing from the web. An on-premise document previewer is now available that uses LibreOffice. The Web Interface now supports custom localisation using PO files (GNU gettext). General improvements to the PDF Annotation tool. The appliance now supports a 'Web View Only' permission, that permits users to only access the folder through the Web File Manager. Where users have a large number of files in a folder, the Web File Manager now paginates the file list for browser performance reasons. A message will now be displayed when a users user's connection to the SME appliance has been lost (e.g. no network connection).

The appliance will now send an email to the administrator if the PDF Burner is not running. Added configuration option to specify the SSL/TLS version for your storage cloud if it does not support the latest strongest versions. Improved the alignment on the Edit User form The Dashboard now indicates how much space has been used on each cloud The apostrophe ' character is now supported in user's email addresses. All other sessions a user has apart from the current session will now be terminated if the user changes their password. Filebox now has an option to 'move to trash'. Improved handling of large folders during move operations Improved rate limit throttling imposed by storage system. Bug fixes

When you have an Audit Watch notification configured to alert on the generation of file sharing links, this notification includes a file sharing link, which can cause repeated notifications. This has been resolved. It was not previously possible to export a large volume of audit log entries. This has been resolved.

The getMyFavouriteFiles and getLockedFiles API methods did not respect pagination controls. This has been resolved. The getProvidersForOrgMember API method could be called by an non-admin user. This has been resolved. The getFilesByQuickFilter indicated that matches were found in the content of the file, even if deep content search was disabled. This has been resolved.

When copying a file from an encrypted folder to an unencrypted folder, the file was not decrypted. This has been resolved. Files that were encrypted on upload (Personal Encryption), could not be downloaded if they were in a Dropfolder. SME now prompts for the encryption phrase on download.

Auto-sharing rules would cause thumbnails to be generated where they were not necessary. This has been resolved.

The Team option, Default page after login did not display the currently set option. The choice had been saved and honoured, but displayed incorrectly on the Organization Options screen. Storage Providers

Rackspace If you created an empty folder directly within Rackspace, then it would appear as a file within the SME interface. This has been resolved. CMIS Resolved error after file rename and cloud refresh Jive Resolved error handling with their API OneDrive Resolved issue where OneDrive could not be added with newly created OneDrive personal accounts Box.net Resolved issue where you could not have a folder called 0

The 'Download from Web' option did not work if the URL contained a question mark '?'. This has been resolved. Resolved issue where Team Members who have the Manage Permissions permission on a folder could not delete the Team Folders created by others. The permissions on sub Team Folders were not always displayed correctly. This has been resolved. There were no issues with the enforcement of the permissions. Resolved issue where if you had too many tags, it would restrict the viewing of files resolved issue where some team members in a team folder could not see a thumbnail for a file. Resolved issue where the pagination controls could appear on top of the search results if the window was small in height. Under certain circumstances it was easy to submit a comment twice. This has been resolved. You are now prevented from renaming buckets/containers. This is not supported by object storage systems.

If GraphicsMagick is used, SME now limits its execution time for cases where it can take a very long time to generate a thumbnail. If you have Show versioned files in clients set to User choice, and the Team Admin Dashboard option Show versioned files in clients is set to Yes, this option was ignored for the Team Admin. The option is respected correctly for Team Users. This has been resolved. Resolved system error when filename contains a line-break symbol. When running the DB Upgrade script, it would output Undefined offset SERVER_NAME to the command line. This has been resolved. If users performed an upload using 'direct upload', this would contribute towards their package bandwidth usage. This has been resolved. Business group email notifications could sometimes render incorrectly in some legacy email platforms. This has been resolved. Resolved issue with the internal cache, which would lead to a providers title being displayed incorrectly for a short period of time after it had been updated. General improvements to the storage and management of security sensitive keys.
