Hello everyone,

In this release, we have added support for using a managed identity to connect to an Azure SQL Database from an Indicium Linux Web App. Furthermore, we have improved the usability of system flows and made some minor fixes.

You can read more about Indicium's features in the Indicium user manual.

About Indicium

Two types of the Thinkwise Indicium Application Tier are available:

• Indicium Basic (EoL): for use with the Windows GUI and Mobile GUI. This basic version does not support features such as system flows and OpenID.
• Indicium: for use with the Universal GUI and via APIs. This version uses the full range of Indicium functionality.

New and changed

Linux Azure Web App now supports managed identity

new

You can now configure Indicium to use the managed identity to connect to the Azure SQL Database. To configure this, open the Web App in the Azure Portal and enable System assigned identity in the Identity screen.

Configure Indicium to use this managed identity by adding the following settings to the appsettings.json file (or environment variables):

"MetaSourceConnection": {
    "Server": "<server>",
    "Database": "<database name>",
    "UseAzureActiveDirectory": true
}

For more information see Azure Active Directory as pool user.

Process flow monitor can now start system flows from IAM meta source

change

Previously, you could only start system flows from the Process Flow Monitor from the Software Factory meta source. Since the Software Factory is typically not available in acceptance or production environments, this limited usability. With this update, you can now start system flows from the IAM meta source in the Process Flow Monitor.

Minor fixes and tasks

• DB2 In a previous release, we added CLOB support for DB2 using the new DB2 Core driver. This is now also implemented for the older iSeries driver.
• Fixed an issue where the OpenAPI endpoint did not work correctly when the model contained a view without a primary key. Note that the platform still requires every view to have a primary key. This is enforced through a validation in the Software Factory.
• Previously, when you exported date and time columns from a grid to Excel, the format would differ from the user's settings in the Universal GUI. This has been fixed.
• Fixed an issue that caused export queries to fail when sorting was applied but there was no pagination.
