Summary

Description

New

Administration

Allow user to designate a project as Cold Storage.

A new ability for instance administrator to flag projects on which work is mostly done as ‘Cold Storage’ so that these projects don't get billed in the same way and cannot be opened, but so that there is also the option to take them out of 'cold storage' if someone needs to continue working on them.

 If requesting this feature, please consult directly with your consulting or sales representative as to process and implications. 

New

Administration

Ability to edit instance settings.

New for instance administrators, the ability to see and edit instance-level settings (also called MSA settings) in the web UI. These settings historically had been only available in the Review Manager desktop tool.

New

Administration

Add S3 staging bucket access keys to instance system settings.

Instance admins can now get their S3 staging bucket access keys so that they can add data to it for processing and other related tasks. Doing so via the UI is now much more secure and preferred.

The settings include bucket name, secret access Key, secret access key ID. The user will use them in non-encrypted form and only instance admins have access.

Project admins can download any users' Ask history log. This gives an overview of all the current project’s Ask history across all users so that a project admin can download it for tracking and offline investigation purposes.

Ask - Query should be available in Download.

The column is in the first tab, the Questions and Answers tab.

New

Ask

Allow users to retrieve and continue historic Ask sessions.

User should be able to see a new side bar menu showing historic Ask sessions. This side bar now shows an "Ask new chat" button and breaks the menu down into 3 categories:

Fix

Data Visualizations

Doc counts not correct when drilling down to seconds.

Corrected an edge case on the Timeline widget, which affected the document count in the tooltip shown on a timeline bar, when the timeline was displayed by seconds (the last drill-down level).

Corrected a small display issue with accented characters in the Field Profile management area.

Fix

Fields

Selecting ranges of filtered results in sortable lists selects hidden items.

Fix

Filters

"Responsive" tag sometimes not expanding when a filter search is applied.

Corrected an edge case, where the Responsiveness tag in the sidebar would not expand if there were no documents matching that tag after a search.

Fix
