Breaking changes

• The following RTE actions were merged into the TABLE action:

  • MERGE_TABLE_CELLS
  • TABLE_ADD_ROW_AFTER
  • TABLE_ADD_ROW_BEFORE
  • TABLE_ADD_COLUMN_AFTER
  • TABLE_ADD_COLUMN_BEFORE
  • TABLE_DELETE_ROW
  • TABLE_DELETE_COLUMN
• Projects using those actions in the toolbar can safely remove them, because table actions are now accessible through the triple dot menu on the table enhancement.
• Many filters are now hidden in the search panel, and editors can expose them by clicking on a control. Hiding filters is the default configuration. To restore the old view, disable this feature entirely in Admin > Settings > Global > Debug > Disable Configurable Search Filters.

• Security upgrades mandated the following changes:

  • javax.mail::mail was renamed com.sun.mail:javax.mail
  • Various Google API signatures changed
  • Jsoup removed deprecated methods
  • Cron utils started using the official java.time over org.threeten.bp
  • onegraph project renamed to graphql-ui

• In the CMA, StorageItems were using the scalar type Upload. They now use a GraphQL Input Type called StorageItem which contains two fields:

  • url whose type is the URL scalar which is expecting a String URL
  • file whose type is the previously used Upload scalar.
