Removed Parameter ‘parametrized’ on calling Business Objects within Scripts and Client-Side Business Objects

We removed the parameter ‘parametrized’ on calling Business Objects within Scripts and Client-Side Business Objects. You need to adapt your Applications and Business-Objects if you are using that option, to avoid unforeseen behavior of your Applications

[Integration] Support of CryptoJS in Server-side Business Objects

The active development of CryptoJS ended a while ago. For security reasons, the CryptoJS integration will be removed from Simplifier.

For server-side business objects, there will be no direct replacement. We provide replacements within the Simplifier SBO API for selected CryptoJS APIs instead, starting with AES encryption and SHA256 hashing. On-premise customers with use-cases not covered by these should contact us (for Simplifier-hosted customers, we will check CryptoJS usage automatically).

If you need client-side crypto functionality, we recommend using the available JS Web Crypto API.

You can already deactivate CryptoJS in the Feature Settings.

Deprecated since MAKERS CHOICE 26-04; Removal with a MAKERS CHOICE Release after Simplifier 11. Latest Removal with Simplifier 12

[Integration] Global API objects (capital letters) in Server-side Business Objects functions

Currently, you can still use the redundant and outdated global Business Object API with the prefixes CONNECTOR_, BUSINESSOBJECT_, PLUGIN_, LOG_, TOOLS_, and USERS_. Their usage is deprecated and will be removed in the future. Use the Simplifier SBO API instead.

You can already deactivate the global objects in the Feature Settings.

Deprecated since MAKERS CHOICE 26-04; Removal with a MAKERS CHOICE Release after Simplifier 11. Latest Removal with Simplifier 12

[System requirements] Support of Oracle for Simplifier databases

[Integration] Result type in SQL Connector endpoints

Currently, you can set a result type in SQL Connectors. As the result types are call-specific and not connector-specific, we will remove this field in a later version

Deprecated since MAKERS CHOICE 25-12; Removal tbd

[Integration] Client 1.0 API route to access Proxy-Connector

Our new Proxy Connector will be accessible via the Client 2.0 route (Read more). Starting with MAKERS CHOICE 25-10/Simplifier 10, all old Proxy Connectors are migrated to the new one. Until Simplifier 11, the Client 1.0 route is still available. If you use it in Scripts, Client-side Business Objects, or REST-Connectors, please change it to the Client 2.0 route to keep accessing your Proxy Connectors.

Deprecated since MAKERS CHOICE 25-08; Removal with a MAKERS CHOICE Release until Simplifier 11/Removal with Simplifier 11

[Integration] Javascript execution in PDFs created by PDF Plugin

Currently, it is possible to add Javascript to PDFs created by PDF Plugin. This is a potential risk for Server Side XSS (PDF Injection) and Server Side Request Forgery (SSRF). The option to add Javascript to PDFs in PDF Plugin is now deactivated but can be activated at its own risk. The activation is subject to be removed in later Releases.

Deprecated since Simplifier 8 EHP 3; Removal tbd
