Improvements

Improved exclusion of non-existent groups IMPROVED

Previously, if a group used in a step approval was deleted, the approvals list view failed to function, but now the application handles this scenario correctly and works seamlessly across all views, including case, project, and global.

Improved exclusion of non-existent groups IMPROVED

We improved the external approver view in the Approval Path to ensure all content elements are displayed correctly for external approvers, covering Confluence pages.

Key updates include migrating from deprecated Confluence endpoints, introducing a new page HTML renderer, and enhancing issue rendering with custom layouts, styling, and media support. These changes involved redefining the implementation due to major updates in the issue HTML renderer and Guarana ADF. Additional testing was conducted to address XSS vulnerabilities and verify content rendering across various Confluence pages.

Supported elements include:

Breadcrumbs, title, creator and updated date, content, labels, attachments, and last comments.

Bug Fixes

Fixed external user approval link redirection Issue FIXED

There was a bug in email notification when clicking “Reminder: Action requested for Approval” link redirected users to the page in Confluence instead of the approval path window. After the fix, the link now redirects correctly to the approval path window, allowing the approver to take action directly.
