4. Only Level One (1) Users are Allowed to Set User Level Permissions​

User access management has been refined to ensure tighter control over system configurations. Improves governance and prevents unauthorised modifications to critical access controls.

  • Only Level 1 users are now authorised to configure and manage user-level permissions.
  • Other user levels will have view-only access to these settings.

5. SSO Login Support for Docs & Swagger​

The SSO experience has been enhanced to ensure consistent authentication across all integrated platforms, including API documentation (Swagger) and User Manuals.

What's Enhanced

  • Authentication context is now preserved when navigating from the Dashboard to external resources such as:
    • API Docs
    • User Manual documentation
  • The system dynamically identifies the appropriate authentication configuration based on the company context.
  • Supports both:
    • Default authentication policies
    • Company-specific custom Identity Provider (IdP) configurations

How It Works

  • When users access Swagger or User Manuals from the Dashboard:
    • The system automatically determines the correct authentication policy for the user's organization
    • Users are seamlessly authenticated without requiring an additional login

Ensure the required redirect URLs are configured in the identity provider (e.g., Azure AD B2C) for documentation endpoints if not already set.

6. Sensor One year Data Retention​

The Sensor module now supports long-term data analysis with extended retention capabilities.

  • Sensor data can be retained and accessed for up to 1 year.
  • Users can visualize long-duration trends with optimized chart formats:
    • Detailed view for shorter durations
    • Aggregated (bar chart) view for extended periods
  • Sensor data logs can be downloaded for the full retention duration.

Check out Sensor Data Retention and Extended Trend Analysis for more details.

7. Webhook EPD Fail Notification​

The system now provides label display and hardware-related issues through webhook events.

  • EPD-related failures are captured and reported with detailed status indicators.
  • Includes specific failure categories such as:
    • EPD Broken
    • Decompression Error
    • EPD Display Fail

It helps users in faster diagnosis and proactive handling of label issues through real-time notifications.
Check out EPD Error Notifications for more details.

8. SFTP Enhancements​

SFTP configuration capabilities have been enhanced to support secure and flexible integrations.

  • Supports both:
    • Password-based authentication
    • SSH key-based authentication
  • SSH key pairs are automatically generated within the system.
  • Public key download and configuration enable seamless secure connections.
  • SSH key-based SFTP authentication requires proper public key configuration on the server.

Check Out SFTP Manual for more details.

9. Restricted Access to PDA Configuration​

Access to ESL configuration within PDA settings has been enhanced.

Only authorised Level 1 users can access, modify, and save PDA (ESL) configurations.

Restricted to ensures secure handling of device-related configurations and reduces the risk of unintended changes.

  • Features:
    • Supports all labels
    • Multiple algorithm options available

Check Out Image Push for more details.

This enhancement improves the LED Blink API by allowing users to specify duration in both mixed format (minutes/seconds) and seconds-only format. It provides better flexibility and a more standardised way to define LED blink durations without affecting existing implementations.

  • Access via API Docs → LED POST API
  • Supported duration formats:
    • Mixed format: 1m, 2m, 5m, 10m
    • Seconds format: 60s, 120s, 300s, 600s
  • Both formats are valid and interchangeable

16. Minor Changes or Enhancements​

1. Allowing friendly names to JSON based product uploads

Overview:

When articles are uploaded through the JSON API, each request generates a unique batchId (e.g., "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890"). Since these IDs are system-generated and not user-friendly, it becomes difficult to identify the purpose of each batch when multiple requests are submitted. This enhancement introduces the ability for users to provide a friendly name, so batches can be easily recognized and managed.

Without Friendly NameWith Friendly Name
a1b2c3d4-e5f6-...Republic_Day-26.json

API change

Endpoint: POST and PUT /api/v2/common/articles (JSON upload)

New Query Parameter: fn (optional)

POST /api/v2/common/articles?fn=Republic_Day-26

How It Works

When fn (custom file name) is provided:

  1. The value is validated against the pattern
  2. .json extension is appended automatically
  3. This makes tracking and debugging article uploads much easier.
2. ALDI Nord image Data (null) Vs Regular Article Update.

Overview:

To ensure correct label content rendering when switching between Article, Article Image Push, Regular Image Push events.

This enhancement prevents incorrect duplicate detection caused by stale checksum metadata and ensures the label always reflects the latest intended article data.

3. Yellow dogs store list pagination issue fix and Audit Log Integration Status Endpoint reference updated.

Overview Updated the configurations and API calls for the Yellow Dog POS and Audit Log pages. In the Yellow Dog POS page, the store list data table was modified to disable pagination and request up to 500 items at once and in Yellow Dog POS Audit Log Integration Status - corrected the endpoint reference.

4. Added Repeat Schedule Text for Page 88

Overview: The purpose of this update is to introduce support for a new page type identifier (88) representing Repeat Schedule operations.

This ensures that when the system processes events for Repeat schedule by label or article, the UI correctly displays the label REPEAT SCHEDULE in both transaction logs and historical records.

5. Improved Event Accuracy for Reconciliation Status Notifications

This enhancements ensure more accurate and consistent webhook events during product reconciliation.

Key Updates * Correct handling of status transitions (Processing, Success, Timeout)

  • Improved tracking of in-progress records
