MindAccess Developer Plan Subscribers and MindAccess Operator Plan Subscribers

Asset Management Service

Fixed issues

  • The user can delete core.basicenterprise type assets if it does not represent a tenant, but will get an appropriate error response if it is a tenant.

  • Appropriate error message is returned when moving a tenant.

Analytics Services

Fixed issues

  • Security fixes for Signal Calculation API and Anomaly Detection API.

Cloud Foundry

What's new?

  • Share a backing service across multiple spaces to reduce operations cost. We have enabled the Cloud Foundry feature for instance sharing across spaces.

  • General usability and security enhancements

  • Updated buildpacks:

Fixed issues

  • Fixed a bug that caused sporadic issues during unbinding of services.

  • Fixed a bug that caused random 404 error for broken requests.

  • Fixed a bug that kept rabbitMQ 36 instances stuck in "create in progress" state.

Known issues

  • Upgrading single Logme, MongoDB 3.2 and PostgreSQL 9.4 Backing Services instances to clustered instances is not possible.

  • In rare situations the creation of a Backing Service instances takes longer than 30 minutes and might fail. In those cases please try later again to create the service.

  • Mendix:

    • The Mendix buildpack is currently only available on MindSphere running on region Europe 1.

    • MindSphere currently does not support mobile native apps.

    • If the user logs out from MindSphere, the application built using Mendix will not delete the session cookie. In some circumstances, this could lead to another user using the same app on the same browser on the same computer, picking up the session from the previous user if the cookie has not yet expired.

Additional Information

  • Mendix:

    • When deploying an application to MindSphere, the app name has to be compliant with the MindSphere naming conventions.

    • Binary File Storage: MindSphere does not currently have a compatible file service available to its Cloud Foundry stack. Therefore, you cannot use any Mendix features which rely on having a file service.

    • Currently, MindSphere only supports two roles. This should be taken into account when designing security within your Mendix app. It is recommended that you create two scopes for your MindSphere app, user and admin which will map to identically-named user roles in your Mendix app.

Identity and Access Management

What's new? 

Hint:  With the next deployment it is planned to update the token signing key. Further information will be provided also in the documentation. 

Known issues

  • In the current version the logout with Internet Explorer 11 might not work. In this case please close the browser directly.

  • After modifying the authorization of an user via Identity Management Service, the change is not immediately visible. The user has to close the browser and login again.

IoT and Storage Services: File Service

Known issues

  • For security reasons a strict timeout is enforced. Currently, this leads to the situation that the size of a file which can be uploaded/ downloaded depends on the network bandwidth at client side.

  • When uploading files to the File Service, a file name must not contain blank spaces. Blank spaces in the file name will prevent the file form being stored.

  • After deleting an asset, associated files might still be accessible for up to 30 minutes as this data is deleted asynchronously.

IoT and Storage Services: Time Series Service

Known issues

  • The maximum payload size of a message sent to Time Series Service as part of a PUT request cannot exceed 1 MB.

  • The service will never return more than 2000 records in a response.

  • After deleting an asset, respective time series data might still be accessible for up to 30 minutes as this data is deleted asynchronously.

  • When getting the job status of a bulk import job, the response might not always contain detailed information on errors that occurred.

  • When creating or updating an aspect it might take up to 30 minutes until aggregated data can be read for this aspect. Writing data or reading raw data is possible immediately.

Technical Token Management

What's new?

  • New endpoint for applications that use app credentials

    With the Technical Token Management API you are enabled to get a permission to fetch tenant data from an IoT Value Plan. With this release a new endpoint will be published. This endpoint enables the application to fetch the list of all IoT Value plans, that are connected via provisioning to the application that uses app credentials. A pagination is also part of the new endpoint. This pagination is necessary if the application is provisioned to more than e.g. 50 IoT Value Plans.

Usage Transparency Service

What's new?

  • Additional metrics will be shown at the Customer Dashboard: Asset instances and Asset types.
