Release date: 22 Oct 2024

Our team is thrilled to announce the latest release of Comala Document Management Data Center version 7.6.1

Confluence Data Center compatibility: v8.5.15 - 9.1.0

Enhancements

Compatibility update for Confluence 9.1.0

This release provides compatibility with Confluence 9.1 for Data Center.

Impersonation group for Refresh Data

The Impersonation group for Refresh Data is a new setting in the app global configuration. It is used to let a space administrator successfully refresh the data for a space, including pages with page-level edit restrictions.

A global administrator can select a confluence administrator group to impersonate a confluence administrator when the refresh data process is run in a space by the space administrator. This will ensure the process has access to restricted pages.

Improvement in document activity upgrade prechecks

The document activity upgrade precheck process now detects duplicated states in the page activity data and identifies the related pages in the support package created, preventing a failed data upgrade from being executed.

The document states report macro now includes comments added on a state transition

A comment added by a user on a state transition is now displayed in the document states report macro.

Migration to cloud improvement

During a cloud migration, pages in the space trash are skipped, allowing the migration to complete successfully and setting the migration status to Complete. Previously, pages in the space trash caused the migration status to be set as Incomplete.
