Architecture

End of Release Tracks

Intrexx 12.0.0 marks the end of the release tracks introduced in March 2021. This means that, starting with version 12.0.0, Intrexx will no longer be shipped in two "branches."

Intrexx Silent Track and Intrexx Steady Track will each be updated to Intrexx version 12.0.0.

Server Software Update Settings

In the Silent Track and the Steady Track, you could change the release track under "Extras > Server Software Update Settings."

This menu item has been removed in Intrexx 12.0.0.

Track Selection During the Installation Process

Until now, during the installation of Intrexx, you had the option to choose between Silent Track and Steady Track. This option is no longer available in Intrexx 12.0.0.

Update to Intrexx 12.0.0

The following update options are available to you:

Intrexx Steady Track 11 Intrexx 12.0.0

Intrexx Silent Track 11 Intrexx 12.0.0

Intrexx Steady Track 10 Intrexx 12.0.0

For the options listed above, the update is performed via the Portal Manager Perform Updates for Intrexx).

New Intrexx Versions

With Intrexx 12.0.0, new versions with new features and bug fixes will be released regularly (approximately every two to three months). In other words, Intrexx 12.0.0 behaves the same way as Intrexx Steady Track when it comes to updates.

Features

Intrexx 12.0.0 includes a wealth of new features. These include, among others, the connectors for Salesforce and Microsoft SharePoint.

Below is an overview of the new features.

Credential Store

The new credential store is a secure, centralized store with its own namespace. Credentials used in processes can be stored here independently of the processes and made available at runtime.

The Credential Store is required for managing processes in public Git repositories and for sharing processes with third parties. It enables an improved staging environment from the test environment to the production environment. You can find all additional information here.

Parameter Store

The Parameter Store is a central repository that allows non-sensitive connection parameters used in processes to be stored independently of the processes and made available at runtime. You can find it in the "Integration" module on the left, below the "Connection Data Management" entry.

You can find all additional information here.

Salesforce Connector

With the Intrexx Salesforce Connector, you can read from and write to objects in Salesforce. For detailed information on this topic, see the " Connector for Salesforce" section.

Microsoft Connector for SharePoint Server/Online

With the Intrexx Connector for SharePoint Server/Online, you can access SharePoint lists and SharePoint document libraries for both reading and writing. For detailed information on this topic, see the " Connector for Microsoft SharePoint Server/Online" section.

JavaScript

The JS API has been thoroughly revised and updated. As part of this process, the standard library "Intrexx Library for Mobile Devices" was removed. The "Intrexx Standard Library" for JavaScript has been reviewed for outdated examples, cleaned up, organized, and updated with new examples. You can find all the information here.

REST Call Actions

Using REST call actions within processes, you can make REST API calls automatically or on an event-driven basis. Depending on which endpoints the corresponding REST API provides, you can complete complex "tasks" almost automatically or "at the push of a button." You can find more information on this topic here.

SSH Configuration

Every Intrexx portal now has a public SSH key, which is generated when a new portal is created or when an existing portal is updated. The public SSH key enables Intrexx to authenticate with an SSH server. You can find all the information here.

Search - Filters

New types of facets are now available

  • Text

  • Date/Time

  • Numerical

  • Boolean value

When performing a search, you'll have access to various options for filtering the search results—for example, a slider that makes it easy to adjust the date range. You can find all the information on "facets" here.

Creating Global Language Constants from Within Applications

Global language constants can now also be created directly from an element's properties. You can find all the information on this topic here.

Image Selection

The image selection now includes a search function. You can find all the information here.

New Profiles for User Replication with JDBC

There are now two additional sample profiles for migrating users and groups from existing Intrexx portals—for both PostgreSQL and other databases. You can find more information here.

New Java Class in Processes

"TransactedAcquireLockWorkflowCondition" sets a cluster-wide lock via the lock service and releases it at the end of the transaction. You can find more information here.
