2.9.2 - Pushing Big Data with the ItemPath API

March 24, 2023

Having a Motive: Data Push Retries & Filters

Users of the Data Push app can now see more details about transactions that had an export error. When resending these from the Failed Attempts tab of an integration, the status will update as the transaction is re-exported. Refreshing will remove successful transactions from the list.

Data push failed attempts

In the settings of each Data Push integration, users can also filter transactions by Motive Type. This can be used to exclude transactions that are not relevant to the integration, such as deletions or cancellations.

Data push settings filters

As with the History Type filter, you can select multiple values from the dropdown for the motives you wish to include. Leaving the selection blank will include all transactions. (To view a list of all Motive Types in the API reference, click here.)

Exploring PowerPick Parameters

The Explorer view now includes a "Parameter Value" tab, which shows valies obtained from PowerPick settings. This is useful for seeing what ItemPath reads from PowerPick, for checking PowerPick rules, and for troubleshooting.

Explorer parameter values

New Features

  • A pie chart Dashboard widget with one snapshot using the "group" feature will show different colors for each group/slice of the pie.
  • Reports can now have filters that use the "equals" operator with "None" to filter out null values. Using "None" twice will filter out both null and empty string values.
  • Data Push's performance has been improved by using multiple threads to push data in bulk. Data Push's logging has also been improved by combining the logs into one file and using a backup log file.
  • The "Test" button in Data Push is disabled if there are no history records to push.
  • For Data Push connections test (usually to a /ping endpoint), the self-signed SSL certificate check is overridden. This test also has better error messages.

Bugfixes

  • Some users were having errors with Microsoft OS compatibility with ODBC 18 because of a TLS mismatch, so we've downgraded to ODBC 17 for now.
  • Some Data Push transactions were getting stuck at Export State Type 3 because of an error, which has been resolved.
  • Fixed a bug when resetting a password using the password reset link.
  • "Station" was missing from the history table in Data Push but has been added.
  • Fixed a crash caused by a missing port in a PowerPick connection and fixed the SWL port check.
  • Fixed occasional errors when deleting dashboard views and reports.
  • Because there can be multiple stations with Web Services either enabled or disabled, the "Test" button in the Web Services connection settings now checks if any station's Web Services parameter is set to "true".
