Introduction

This page summarizes the new features, resolved issues, and known issues in AppBoard version 2.6.4 released on January 12th, 2017. This version is a currently supported version.

What is AppBoard

AppBoard is a data integration and data visualization platform that dramatically redefines the cost/benefit equation for the development and deployment of real-time business systems dashboards. AppBoard allows you to connect, integrate, visualize, and interact with your data in a simple, straight-forward builder environment. The end result is powerful, compelling dashboards that summarize data from multiple sources and can be accessed from any device.

Supported Platform Changes

New Features

  • CyberArk Password Vault integration extended to support evaluation in LDAP Repository Connection settings. SHIM Expression to be used to look up username and password information at runtime. (AB-1219)
  • Session variable expressions should support evaluation in LDAP Repository connection settings (Note: This is pre-session evaluation so it really will only evaluate to the default value of the variable definition). (AB-1219)
  • Inlcuding MS SQL Server's OpenSource JDBC Driver by default v6.1.0jre8. (AB-1292)

Resolved Issues

  • Fixed Session Variables configuration of variables and provisioning of Domain and User variables to apply sort using the ordinalPosition and the name. (AB-1296)

  • Fixed ShellScript Adapter to properly identify SHIM:query params as attributes that can be used in client side actions. (AB-1289)

  • Fixed security issue when backing up LDAP Repository connection settings. (EN-331).
  • Fixed security issue where OCSP Login Request Processor allowed alternate login credentials from userId processed from the user certificate. Login page update required (contact support for details configuring: ocsp.usernameProp and ocsp.validateUserId=true settings). (EN-330)
  • Fixed OCSP Cert Path validation to allow multiple certPaths as new certificates are issued. (EN-329)
  • Fixed GC logging when spaces are in the directory names. (EN-327)
