Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where query Business Rules were preventing Bulk Share for sharing exepcted number of records.
DataSync for ServiceNow (Replicator)
March 3, 2020
New Features
- Manually reshare records from your ServiceNow instance from a period of three days or less for situations where all records were not received.
- There are now two options to choose from in dynamic share: business rule or flow designer. Choosing flow designer will create a dynamic share using flow. With this option, you can send records out of your ServiceNow instance even with setWorkflow is set to false. Choosing business rule uses a previous release approach by creating a dynamic share using business rule.
- Specify how many bulk shares can run simultaneously in a scheduled bulk share. This is useful if you don't want all the bulk shares listed in this scheduled bulk share to try and run immediately based on the number of scheduled workers you have available.
- You are now prompted to confirm when deleting messages in the inbound or outbound messages tables.
- Upon creating shared queues or subscribed queues, you can choose a queue type that will automatically prepend a queue prefix to your queue name for easier creation and setup.
- Enable debug logging for a specified time frame in the Perspectium properties to obtain additional informations when using the Perspectium application.
- Fanout queues are used to broadcast messages across multiple queues. When creating a shared queue, you now have the option to send to a fanout queue. Monitoring receipts for fanout queues is now also available.
- Filter out which audit log records to share in dynamic share or bulk share.
