## Key Features

### Added

* Added the ability to save [notes](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/flows/designing-a-flow.md#using-notes) directly in the flow designer.
* Added the ability to resize connector shapes in the flow designer.
* Added a [threadSleep](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/scripting/operations/op-thread-sleep.md) ArcScript operation.

### Changed

* The certificates API now uses a date format that is consistent with other APIs like transactions, logs, requests, etc.
* [Function](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/scripting/value-formatters/function-formatters.md) calls in ArcScript are now case-insensitive.
* The Application Logs now include information about the AppDB connection during the startup sequence.
* Relaxed the filename length limitation when uploading files in the UI where the application is running in environments that do not place restrictions on filename lengths.
* Updated the SQLite and Derby libraries that ship with the application to their latest versions.
* Security and Performance improvements across the board.

### Fixed

* Fixed an issue causing errors in the dashboard for users with very high transaction volumes.
* Fixed an issue with the pub/ping.rst endpoint causing errors to be reported in load balanced environments when concurrency is very high.
* Improved the new flow designer's handling of special characters in workspace and connector names.
* Fixed an issue in the import Admin API endpoint that caused flow connections to be lost for some imports.

## Connectors

### Added

* Added a new version of the [SAP IDoc](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/sap-idoc/sap-idoc.md) connector.
* Added the ability to upload custom schemas directly in the UI for EDI connectors.
* Added the ability to reset data in a connector's state storage back to its initial state in the UI for EDI connectors.
* The [Response event](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/webhook.md#custom-responses) in the Webhook connector now allows items to be pushed out in order to cause custom messages to be sent down the flow.
* The [Email Send](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/email-send.md) and [Email Receive](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/email-receive.md) connectors now support NTLM as an authentication mechanism.
* The [JSON](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/json.md) connector now supports the Local File Scheme setting.
* Added support for the `LastRunTimestamp` and `CurrentTimestamp` attributes of the `_connector` item to the [Script](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/script.md) connector.
* Added a **Compress HTTP Request** setting to the Advanced tab of the [REST](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/rest.md) connector.

### Changed

* The [XML Map](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/xml-map/xml-map.md) connector now makes the XML Streaming capabilities more obvious through a new toggle in the Settings page.
* The [FTP Server](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/ftp-server.md) connector now adds a FTPServer-Virtual-Path header to received messages.
* Performance and stability improvements for the [Flat File](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/flat-file.md) connector, including the ability to indicate that the given length for fields in a position-delimited file are based on byte-length instead of character-length.
* Updated the underlying dependencies for the [Apache Kafka](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/apachekafka.md) connector.
* New instances of the [Google Drive](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/google-drive.md) connector now use a PATCH request to update files, instead of a combination of DELETE and POST requests.
* The InitializeVendorBill stored procedure in the [NetSuite](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/netsuite/netsuite.md) connector now treats `ItemList` as an XML aggregate, eliminating the need for decoding the XML aggregate in subsequent steps in the flow.

### Fixed

* Fixed an issue in the [Email Send](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/email-send.md) connector that caused the filename provided in the Content-type header to be ignored.
* Fixed an issue in the [REST](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/rest.md) connector where certain characters in the configuration would cause the UI to behave unexpectedly.
* Fixed an issue causing the Output Behavior setting in the [REST](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/rest.md) connector to affect the behavior of the \_response item in the Response event.
* Fixed some UI issues in the [XML Map](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/xml-map/xml-map.md) connector.
* Fixed an issue in the [Amazon Marketplace](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/amazon-marketplace/amazon-marketplace.md) connector that caused some connections to throw an error related to decrypting the OAuth client settings file.
* Fixed an issue in the [appSendEmail](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/scripting/operations/op-app-send-email.md) operation's handling of attachments.
* Fixed an issue preventing events from showing up in the UI for connectors that transform messages based on a schedule.
* Fixed an issue in the [API](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/api/api.md) connector causing authtokens to be accepted in the URL in some cases, even when the setting to **Allow Auth Tokens in Url** was not enabled.
* Fixed an issue in the [Zip](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/zip.md) connector causing the dates on extracted files to be incorrect.
* Fixed an issue that prevented the afterSend event from showing in the UI for some database connector configurations.
* Fixed an issue that prevented the [Email Send](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/email-send.md) and [Email Receive](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/email-receive.md) connectors from establishing new OAuth connections.
* Fixed an issue that caused the **user name** field to no longer show up for new Oracle connections.
* Improved the performance of the [Email Send](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/email-send.md) connector in attachment mode.
* Fixed a backward compatibility issue in the [OFTP](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/oftp.md) connector's routing functionality when upgrading from legacy versions that did not contain support for multiple workspaces.
* Improved the [REST](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/rest.md) connector's logic for refreshing tokens to avoid concurrency issues when many workers are assigned to it.
* Improved the [File](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/file.md) connector's logic for the **Overwrite Behavior** setting when two files with the same name are being processed at the same time.
* Improved the logic for the **Rotate Interval** and **Delete Interval** settings in profiles to also ensure old log files from orphaned processes are cleaned up.
* Fixed an issue in the [SharePoint](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/sharepoint/sharepoint.md) connector that prevented it from downloading files with some special characters.
* Improved the [Batch Create](https://docs.arc.cdata.com/26.4/self-hosted/en/connectors/batch-create.md) connector to properly handle multi-gigabyte messages.
