Platform

  • Enforcement of integration requests throttling

    Open integration requests that last too long might impact the system's performance, stability, and overall availability. To avoid this situation the FSE server terminates connections to incoming integration requests that keep an open HTTP connection longer than 120 minutes. A 408 error code is returned to the calling application, with the “Request Timeout” message.

  • MS SQL Server upgrade

    The current database server was upgraded to MS SQL 2019.

    Checkmark This feature is available upon deployment.

  • Analytics service on Sandbox tenants

    Access to the Analytics service on Sandbox tenants is limited to the preferred Sandbox tenant.

    Checkmark This feature will be available in Fuji MR18 after deployment, upon announcement.

Security and Trust

  • New MFA token delivery method by Google Authenticator app

    Twilio’s text messaging service is planned to be decommissioned toward the end of the year. Use the new MFA token delivery method and transition from Twilio’s text messaging services to increase service stability and availability.

    Settings icon Configure the Google Authenticator delivery method for MFA. See Configuring Multi-Factor Authentication in the FSE Administration and Configuration Guide.

  • TLS on integration servers in production environments

    Improved integration security uses TLS infrastructure to meet the highest industry standards. This change doesn’t impact customers.

    Checkmark This feature is available upon deployment.

  • File attachment retention policy change

    Some customers retain file attachments for business purposes such as audits, safety information, a holistic view of service records, or completeness of work orders. To accommodate this need, the data retention policy for file attachments is extended to 180 days. This retention policy means, for example, that a file attachment placed in an AWS S3 designated bucket on July 1, 2024 will no longer be accessible in 2025.
