1. New:
1.1. Undockable debug bar
Thanks to your feedback, we've been able to significantly improve the usability of the debug bar. In addition to having the debug bar docked to the right, the debug bar can now be undocked, docked to the bottom, and resized. The layout of the debug bar changes accordingly. This means that scrolling from instances to attribute values and back is history.
Please make sure to update the Blueriq Angular framework to version 0.15.14 or higher to use this feature.
1.2. Referrer-Policy header
Blueriq now allows to manage Referrer-Policy header from application.properties file. As a way to make the application more secure it is set by default to "same-origin".
For more information : Security: Referrer-Policy header
1.3. Unit tests in Blueriq Encore
We've added unit testing of attributes to Blueriq Encore:
1.3.1. Unit tests overview
The unit test overview can be opened from the status bar on the bottom left. It offers a total overview in which unit tests can be created, deleted and navigate to unit tests. It is also possible to run all unit tests from the opened module scope after which test results can be viewed. In the list, unit tests are grouped by target attribute and different (quick) filter options are offered.
1.3.2. Unit test editor
Highlights of the unit test editor in Encore:
- Only if a target attribute is multivalued, there will be multiple fields below expected value.
- A timestamp is shown near the results after running the unit test.
- Depending on the module structure and if relevant logic is defined in modules above the definition of the unit test, multiple different actual values are possible. This is now shown in tabs near the results.
- The profiles section has been simplified.
1.4. Virtual views in Blueriq Encore
Virtual views are views on an element from a selected module for which no definition of the element in that module exists. For example: an entity is defined in the module "Bottom" and attributes for that entity are defined in the module "Top". If the editor of this entity is opened from the definition in "Bottom", the attributes in the module "Top" are not shown. From the module selector in the titlebar, the module "Top" can now be selected (the module "Top" will be accompanied by an eye icon: 
). This is called the virtual view. and these virtual views have now been added to Blueriq Encore.
2. Enhancements
| Enhancement | Details |
|---|---|
| BaaRS error handling | The runtime reports as many invalid values in a JSON Rest request message as possible, instead of just reporting one message at a time. |
Performance of date difference | The performance of date several different functions (YEARS BETWEEN, MONTHS BETWEEN, WORKINGDAYS BETWEEN) has been improved. This change also fixed an bug, which may impact your calculations. See YEARS BETWEEN inconsistency regarding leap days for more information. |
Dependencies in Blueriq Encore | Dependencies of specializations in other modules are now included in the dependencies tab in Blueriq Encore. |

9. Bug fixes
Identifier | Component | Issue | Solution |
|---|---|---|---|
BQ-19461 | Runtime | CVE-2023-20861 was reported for the usage of Spring Framework | Spring has been updated |
CSD-4653 | Studio | Deleting a flow event would fail if an AQ_ExternalFlow container exists in an external library | Deleting a flow event no longer attempts to update AQ_ExternalFlow containers |
CSD-4631 | Encore | The process task editor in Encore would not show the correct state whether the task is automated. | The "Is automated" checkbox is now functioning correctly again. |
BQ-19192 | Runtime | The OpenAPI feed would incorrectly contain a double slash after the hostname of the server URL | The server URL advertised in the OpenAPI feed no longer contains a double slash |
BQ-19068 | Material theme | Unable to run dashboard api's behind a relative path | Updated environment configuration to support relative paths |
BQ-19010 | Encore | The WSDL & XSD import dialog would incorrectly show modules from included projects, resulting in the creation of that module in the selected project instead of updating the existing module | It is now only possible to select modules within the selected project itself |
CSD-4600 | Encore | The REST service editor in Encore did not include a field for the Location value. | The Location value can now be configured in the properties panel of the REST service editor. |
BQ-19006 | Runtime | A case stays locked when a task gets started by a user with the wrong permissions | Added a mechanism that unlocks a case and task when a access denied exception occurs when starting a task. |
BQ-18966 | Audit Consumer | Audit consumer version discrepancy occured between blueriq-dcm and blueriq-runtime packages. | Version difference do not happen anymore due to sourcing version from one source file. |
CSD-4585 | Encore | The history view in Encore could forget its scrolling position when opening an affected element that has since been deleted | The history view now stays open in this situation, which avoids losing the scrolling position |
CSD-4588 | Encore | Encore could incorrectly not show elements that were first deleted and then re-added/renamed under certain circumstances | Encore now properly deals with rename/add operations that occur after a delete of an element with the same name |
CSD-4565 | Encore | When committing pending changes using Encore, the tags would not be cleared once the commit has been created. | The tags are now automatically cleared after creating a commit. |
CSD-4572 | Runtime | When a message event is removed from the process, but the task that follows the message event is not, it may look like such a task can still be executed by the runtime (despite of the warning the runtime provides). The task is however completely ignored from the model, resulting in an exception when the task is started from the database. | To make it clear that the task will never be executed in the runtime, a warning has been added to Encore to alert users that the task will be ignored. |
CSD-4543 | Runtime | When an automatic task is reopened which is renamed in the model in the meantime, an error is thrown. This does not happen to manual tasks which are renamed. | Like manual tasks, for automatic tasks the persistency id is now used to lookup the actual task name in the model instead of using the database name, so if a rename occurs in the model this name is used. |
