Version 8.15.x Release Notes

Some steps have been removed due to security concerns and are no longer supported. We understand that this may impact existing flows, and recommend using the new Upgrade Validator to determine if any of your flows are affected. The Upgrade Validator is designed to help identify and address any potential issues that may result from upgrading.

[DT-031045] Input label for the AD step "List Users in OU" needs to be more specific/changed
Previously, In the "ListUsersInOrganization Unit" AD Module step, we were passing the whole URL in the OU input, now, you only need to pass the OU name. Existing flows will break if they are passing the whole URL.

[DT-038752] "Add Account to Groups" Step: Account ID input works if you are not using "Account ID"
The Add Account To Groups step would take in non-AccountId values. The step has been changed to throw an exception.

[DT-038761] Github Modules - Required 8.15 - Update Module.Build.xml to Module.Build.json
Module settings files have changed from XML to JSON. This impacts all modules in Decisions. Any users with custom modules will need to rebuild them, or the modules will not function.

[DT-038556] Fix Sequence Generation Code/[DT-038494] Duplicate Sequence Creation for Case Folder Naming Postgres
If the output of step GetNextNumber was modified to anything other than the default name (GetNextNumber1_Output) upon upgrading the name will revert to GetNextNumber1_Output and this will break any Flow looking for that output.

[DT-033112] DB Connection String
Output data options on DatabaseData steps have been removed. Existing value mappings may break.
