March 2024¶

Scope¶

We have worked hard to deliver a great Insights Hub experience. These release notes are relevant for Insights Hub Release in March 2024 and include new and adjusted features, fixed issues. If you find other issues, please give us your feedback by contacting our Support.

27^th March 2024¶

Asset Manager¶

With this release, we implemented the various quality of life features to make asset configuration easier. You can explore types during asset creation to find the one you are looking for. Now you can also create assets directly from the type in the Type view by simply selecting the parent asset.

Settings¶

We increased the transparency of PBAS by showing cross references between policies, users and user groups.

23^rd March 2024¶

MindConnect MQTT Commanding¶

With this release, you can retrieve the history of MindConnect MQTT command execution, based on the Agent Id of interest. You can use the filter to select the agent and obtain a chronological list of the commands executed on the agent. You can also filter it based on the specific user who has issued the command.

Asset Management¶

Advance Intimation

Insights Hub will enforce the page size limit of 200 for the below Asset Management GET APIs in the upcoming release.

Asset management GET APIs
GET assetmgmturl/assets?size=200
GET assettypemgmturl/assettypes?size=200
GET assettypemgmturl/aspecttypes?size=200

All the customers, users, app builders are required to adapt to the above mentioned changes, if not already done.

As part of security improvements and feature deliveries, Insights Hub will switch towards more strict API request URL validations in the upcoming releases. Also, note that there will not be any change in the API behavior according to the specifications. However, API request URLs will be validated based on stricter criteria, specifically in the use of trailing slash characters in requests pointing to dedicated resources. Refer to the list below which contains examples of incorrect URLs and correct URLs. This will be applicable to most of the APIs in Insights Hub.

Note

The support of the trailing slash will be completely removed when Sprint boot in future version removes existing support. If the application is not migrated to well-formed requests, then the application might stop working.

Examples of malformed requests	Examples of well-formed requests
GET https://gateway.\Unknown macro: {region}-{environment}.{mindsphere-domain}/api/iottsaggregates/v3/aggregates/{assetId}/{aspectName}/	GET https://gateway.\Unknown macro: {region}-{environment}.{mindsphere-domain}/api/iottsaggregates/v3/aggregates/{assetId}/{aspectName}
GET https://\Unknown macro: {tenantName}-assetmanagement.{region}.{mindsphere-domain}/api/assetmanagement/v3/assets/{id}/?includeShared=true	GET https://\Unknown macro: {tenantName}-assetmanagement.{region}.{mindsphere-domain}/api/assetmanagement/v3/assets/{id}?includeShared=true
PUT https://\Unknown macro: {tenantName}-assetmanagement.{region}.{mindsphere-domain}/api/assetmanagement/v3/assettypes/{id}/	PUT https://\Unknown macro: {tenantName}-assetmanagement.{region}.{mindsphere-domain}/api/assetmanagement/v3/assettypes/{id}
