Feature Enhancements

Platform

  • The processes API has been enhanced to retrieve all details within a Task.

EverSmart

  • The Exit to Console menu item is only displayed to Microshare users and admins.
    • By default, Exit to Console should now be available for:
      • users whose email ends with @microshare.io
      • users whose email begins with “ms_admin@”
      • users whose email begins with “root@”
      • users whose isAdmin is true
      • users whose roles contains “admin”
    • If hideExitToConsoleForAdmin is set to true, then Exit to Console should ONLY be available for:
      • users whose email ends with “@microshare.io”
      • users whose email begins with “ms_admin@”
      • users whose email begins with “root@”
  • In the UI, in the “Summary” tiles on the Overview page and in Device Health, we have updated the description/naming of un-twinned devices to better reflect their status.
    • Un-twinned devices are no longer classed as “Unhealthy” by default. The devices are now described as “Unconfigured”. This will aid new users in understanding the information being displayed to them.
    • Only devices with issues e.g. low battery will now be described as Unhealthy.
    • These were the devices previously set-up with the “dummy” devEUI 00-00-00-00-00-00 (aka “unconfigured devices”). See in-app Help document for more details.

Bug Fixes

Platform

  • Identities in the Composer > Switch Org dropdown are now listed alphabetically.
  • When viewing the Composer > Forms > Info slide-out (i), the Owner, Imported By, and Created By fields are now filled in.

  • The Device Cluster > Quick Update loading icon now appears when expected.
  • When clicking the Composer > Device Cluster > Network > Create button only a single call is made now. This improvement has been made in order to reduce the load on the server and time on the browser to populate the drop-down.
  • The API has been updated to automatically remove trailing spaces in all location tags (e.g. Loc1, Loc2, Loc3, Loc4) for devices in a Device Cluster.

New Features

Feature Enhancements

Platform

  • Composer Search functionality is no longer case sensitive.
  • Console allows escape from forced suite app start.
  • Rule Editor now has “Configs”, “Profiles” and “Streams” in the “RESOURCE TYPE” dropdown.
  • When deleting a device in a Device Cluster, the prompt upon clicking Delete now includes the device tags.

  • The Device Cluster CSV upload format no longer requires only semi-colons and now accepts comma delimited CSV files as well.

EverSmart

  • Implemented a bulk user upload feature in the Settings app to assist in adding large numbers of users.

DeployM

  • The “Scan a real device” prompt message in Deploy-M has been updated to “! Scan a physical device’s QR code” this is intended to assist users in understanding the next action to take when starting to use Deploy-M.
  • The QR code icon has been updated to a camera icon to make it clearer that this starting point for a new user to begin at. – Deploy-M’s Search functionality now has the ability to search on the the data, such as a name, used in a tag field. So, for a User they could now search on a site name e.g. Gianni’s or Pizzeria to more quickly find the correct device in a device cluster.
  • There is now a warning when deleting a device in Deploy-M.
  • Improved the “purpose” string used to ask the user permission to access location data.
  • Improved usability and styling to give an improved look and feel – Deploy-M now provides a pre-populated list of suggestions for tag values where appropriate. This provides suggested terminology for users to select when tagging a device in the field and will hopefully deliver more consistency in tagging descriptions.

Bug Fixes

Platform

  • Device Cluster Downloads now support leading zeros in tags.

DeployM

  • Users can now clearly see any Configuration tag in DeployM as it is being typed.
  • It’s now easier to view, scroll and select from the Language selection list in DeployM on iPhone.

Release Notes for November 20, 2023

New Features

The following changes have been completed to allow EverSmart Alert to meet demands for a “push button” service request. This solution is an MVP and is at an Alpha status.

  • EverSmart Alert now supports One-Button alarm sources. Initially, this will be with Smilio A devices, but other hardware devices are being looked at and could be considered based on the use case.
  • Any of our Smilio A devices can now be configured as a 1-button device with support for Service Requests (Push Button requests).

IoT Monitor

  • We now show the faults from the Indoor Foot Traffic devices on the Overview page. This provides better visibility/awareness so that end users can more easily find and address hardware issues reported by these sensors.

Feature Enhancements

IoT Monitor

  • Device Health no longer reports devices as “Unhealthy” when they are not visible in the UI.
  • Change how IoT monitor interprets device health from Smilio A devices.
  • To ensure IoT Monitor correctly shows healthy devices as healthy, Intermittency is no longer used as a metric for these devices when determining device health. We now handle Smilio device health as a special use case.
  • Poor Signal to Noise ratio is no longer a primary metric for device health as some amount of weak connectivity is expected in real-world environments.

  • Other minor improvements in EverSmart include:
    • Renamed field “Missing Records” as “Data Loss”
    • Renamed field “Total Records” as “Expected Records”
    • Added “Realtime” tab

Platform Authorization

  • A show/eye icon has been added to the password input field on login so that end users may now choose to unmask their password when typing it.
  • To improve the login screen, the Organization (Optional) field is no longer displayed on the log-in screen.
  • Login UI now displays which “special characters” are allowed and properly allows/disallows special characters as indicated.

Suite App

  • We’ve added a new menu item in the “hamburger” menu of the Suite App. “Exit to Console” is an advanced menu item that now appears at the bottom of the menu. Users can click on this link to exit directly to the Microshare Management Console with all of the usual advanced features. To return to the Suite App sandbox, users can either use the “back” functionality in their browser, or they can click on the “Dashboard” item in the top menu bar, or they can click back on the Suite App icon.
