29 March 2022 Release Notes

Version 1.1.246

Feature Highlights

Conditional Nodes Available to All Users

Last fall, DataKitchen released its Conditional Nodes feature for Beta testing with select customers. After considerable user feedback and several updates, this graph tool is now in general availability. Users will find the Add Condition button in the Graph tab of their variations.

Conditional nodes allow recipe builders to insert a decision point in their graphs. They evaluate statements based on variable input, operators, and metrics. The results of the evaluations determine which downstream graph nodes will be executed or skipped. See Conditional Nodes for more information. [DEV-9814]

The conditional nodes feature determines if downstream nodes are executed or skipped.

New Kitchen Roles Feature in Limited Availability

This release introduces a way to grant more restricted user access to kitchens using Automation's predefined roles!

Available only in participating customer accounts, these roles differentiate Admin users with full access to configure kitchen settings from Developer users who focus on building recipes and running orders. Role selection menus appear in the Users tab of the Configure Kitchen page.

Customers may request this feature for their accounts but may not request customizations at this time. See Manage Web App Access for more information. [DEV-9787, DEV-9789]

Admins can select predefined roles for kitchen users with this limited availability feature.

Other Fixes & Enhancements

PostgreSQL Connections Updated: Users reported sporadic connection timeouts with Automation's PostgreSQL connector. To allow for potential database performance or network issues, this release increases the connect timeout from 10 to 60 seconds. Additionally, this update verifies that all PostgreSQL source and sink connections are closed after queries have run. [DEV-9798]
