Hello, We are pleased to announce the release of SL1 PowerFlow v3.2.0, as well as the release of SL1 PowerFlow powerflowcontrol (pfctl) command-line utility v2.8.0. Both of these releases are included on the customer portal for download under Product Downloads > PowerFlow Platform > SL1 - PowerFlow 3.2.0. SL1 PowerFlow v3.2.0 adds the ability to bulk download reports, adds a new API endpoint to support bulk downloading of reports, adds two new configuration options to the docker-compose.yml file, and addresses multiple issues. Read on for more details or see the SL1 PowerFlow Release Notes. SL1 PowerFlow powerflowcontrol (pfctl) command-line utility v2.8.0 updates Couchbase-related checks, updates pfctl checks to require HTTPS certificates, and updates the pfctl init-sps action to use the HOST_ ADDRESS for the PowerFlow system. See the SL1 PowerFlow powerflowcontrol (pfctl) command-line utility v2.8.0 Release Notes. Features (SL1 PowerFlow v3.2.0) This section covers the features that are included in SL1 PowerFlow Platform version 3.2.0: You can now bulk download reports in PowerFlow. When bulk downloading, you have the option to select multiple specific instances of a report to download, or you can select all available instances to download. Added the new DELETE/api/v1/reports/batch API endpoint, which allows you to delete reports in a batch. For more details about using the new endpoint, see the API documentation in the PowerFlow user interface. Added two new configuration options to the docker-compose.yml file to allow access to the Couchbase and RabbitMQ user interfaces without requiring Dex authentication: DISABLE_DEX_AUTH. This option allows you to disable Dex authentication for the Couchbase and RabbitMQ services. ENABLE_SECONDARY_CB_UI. This option allows you to access the Couchbase user interface on port 8091 through secondary nodes without additional port openings. NOTE: The DISABLE_DEX_AUTH and ENABLE_SECONDARY_CB_UI configuration options are intended only for troubleshooting and should be turned off when the PowerFlow system is stable. Blank spaces in configuration options or application variables are now automatically stripped by the PowerFlow API to prevent the spaces from causing issues when PowerFlow reads the values. Updated API service initialization messages to improve clarity when Couchbase indexes are created. Updated the db_host configuration option to function more uniformly across all PowerFlow services.

You can now use the $ character in the PowerFlow password. (Case:00484230) Updated custom mappings values so that you can set any value you want before PowerFlow checks whether the value is unique. Previously, if you attempted to add a custom value and any part of the string matched an existing custom value, you could not attempt to save the value.

Thank you, Release ManagementMicrosoft Teams SyncPack v2.0.0 and Microsoft Teams Automation PowerPack v200
Hello, We are pleased to announce the GA release of the Microsoft Teams v2.0.0 SyncPack and the Microsoft Teams v200 Automation PowerPack integrations for PowerFlow. These releases represent a complete re-architecture of the Teams integration and was driven by a change by Microsoft to the ways Teams works, as detailed in this blog post last fall. Essentially, Microsoft 365 Connectors have been retired, and Microsoft Power Automate was introduced as a replacement. Our new packs make use of Microsoft Power Automate. Please read the release notes and manual carefully, as we have included important details you will need to know before configuring your integration. Here are some highlights from the release notes: Updated the "Create Channel For Event" application to trigger event notification in Microsoft Teams based on the "ms_teams_webhook_url" configuration option, which is a webhook URL generated from Microsoft Teams. When acknowledging an event in Teams, the username of the user who acknowledged the event message is now displayed in SL1. When an event occurs and the event message is posted to Teams, you have three options for handling the event message: Add Note Acknowledge Resolve Added the "enable_existing_channel" configuration option to the "Create Channel For Event" application to allow event notifications to post to an existing Teams channel specified in the "channel_id" configuration option. Updated the "Delete Event From SL1" step name to "Resolve Event From SL1". The Microsoft Teams PowerPack will now create events and event notifications for both major and critical events. Removed the "Major Event Notification to MS Teams" application from the SyncPack. The PowerPack now handles both Critical and Major event notifications using the "Create Channel for Event" application. Removed the "Outage" and "Create Channel Event Notification" applications from the SyncPack. Previously, a refresh token was used to gather user information from adaptive card reactions. The refresh token was removed, and now the user ID is retrieved directly from the workflow using authentication through the Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL). Optimized the "Microsoft Teams Power Automate" application by reducing API permissions to ensure minimal permission exposure while maintaining essential functionality. This enhancement improves security and aligns with best practices for access control. Microsoft is changing its API policy and the way to use it for adaptive cards. As a result, ScienceLogic has upgraded this SyncPack with the Microsoft authentication library, which is the new way to interact with Microsoft applications in a more authenticated process. For more information, see Microsoft's documentation on MSAL . NOTE: Group calling is not available currently with these packs. Thank you, Release ManagementSL1 PowerFlow v3.1.0 is Released
Hello, We are pleased to announce the release of SL1 PowerFlow v3.1.0, which includes important updates and fixes to Issues that were previously reported to ScienceLogic.

Also available on the release download page are the SL1 PowerFlow Flow Control SyncPack v1.0.2 and the SL1 PowerFlow System Utils SyncPack v1.1.7. This release includes some important updates to the PowerFlow user interface, such as: A persistent footer now displays system information, including a last login timestamp and the PowerFlow version installed. A new green badge on scheduled applications that indicates how many schedules exist for the application, giving you at-a-glance information about your applications without your needing to open each application to see more information.
