New Features / Changes

• Improved the way metrics are processed and stored, which increases accuracy and responsiveness of metrics on several platforms.

• New and improved documentation in environment creation wizard.

• Added "Allow Subscription in Self-Service" switch for API products. Only if enabled, subscriptions will be possible in developer portal.

• Added read-only overview over all rules within a rule set.

• Added editor for rule set files.

• Added option to assign rule sets to organizations. Rule sets will only be applied to APIs from assigned organizations. If no organizations are assigned, rule sets will be applied globally.

• In application overview, show metrics from production and non-production enviroments, like in API overview.

• Emails sent by developer portal are now branded and the email footer text can be customized.

• Removed some stacktraces and unnecessary lines from agent logs, to improve readability.

• Menu item ‘Governance’ has been added to tutorial for new users.

• Added the ability to change the plan of an existing subscription. A new switch has been added for developer portals, to configure if this feature is available from the portal.

• Improved error messages reported by rule set validation.

• Added new advanced configuration option to control how APIs are merged during API discovery. Instead of the name reported by the gateway itself, it is now possible to use the title or first tag from the OpenAPI specification.

• Added oAuth callback url and scope to applications. As of now, these values will be included when the application is deployed to Layer 7.

• Added ability to upload and versionate terms of use documents that can be attached to some or all API products as well as developer portals. In the developer portal, each user will be required to confirm the attached documents when subscribing to an API product or when registering (setting their password). Additionally, the exact version of the confirmed documents for a user or a subscription can be found in admin-portal.

• Add option to limit access for subscribing or publishing APIs in certain environments. Instead of being publicly available, environments can be configured so that only users from selected organizations are allowed to subscribe or publish APIs.

• Added option to overwrite how API urls are generated. The url pattern that is normally reported by the agent can now be overwritten for each API. Additionally, the way that this pattern is integrated into the environment URL can now be configured, potentially overwriting the platform default for that environment.

• Added webhooks. You can now register webhooks and link them to certain events (currently creation and deletion of subscriptions). When the event occurs, a JSON payload is sent to the webhook URL containing detailed information. If transmission fails, it will be attempted again later, with exponential backoff. It is also possible to manually retry or permanently cancel a failed transmission.
