2.19.0

January 25, 2024

What’s New

You must upgrade the runtime templates of your environment to 2.19.0 before you can begin using the new features in this release.

  • Improved certificate management

    You can now select the type of certificate (private keypair, public certificate, or identity key) to add to the host, partner, or third-party connection profiles with a consistent experience.

  • SSH identity-key-based authentication for SFTP endpoints

    You can now select the additional authentication types identity key and basic + identity key, to connect with internal and external SFTP servers that require SSH-key-based authentication. Previously, Partner Manager supported only basic (username, password) authentication for SFTP endpoints. You can also update identity keys and trigger the redeployment of the endpoints that use them.

  • Improved TLS context for outbound AS2 endpoints

    You can now configure the TLS context in outbound AS2 endpoint configurations to use a self-signed SSL certificate or allow an insecure connection (recommended only for testing purposes). Previously, you could configure only CA-signed certificates for outbound AS2 endpoints.

  • Support for additional EDIFACT versions

    You can now configure EDIFACT message types with versions s93a, d16a, d16b, d17a, d17b, d18a, and d18b.

  • New About section for the host profile

    You can now add additional information such as your company’s logo, contact information, and more to your organization’s host profile.

  • Custom application properties configured in Runtime Manager for CloudHub-deployed applications are now retained during upgrades and redeployments.

  • You can now configure a substitution character in X12 Send settings to replace any characters in the outbound data payload that are used as other delimiter characters.

  • You can now have multiple SFTP send endpoints with the same host, credentials, and path, but with different file naming patterns.

  • Performance is improved for runtime applications deployed to Runtime Fabric.

2.18.0

October 10, 2023

What’s New

This version requires a runtime template update.

Starting with this version, on-premises standalone deployments are no longer supported.

Enhanced Partner Manager Deployment Options

This release contains enhanced Partner Manager deployment options.

Runtime Fabric Deployment

You can now configure Anypoint Runtime Fabric as a deployment target for Partner Manager. This enables you to execute B2B transaction-processing workloads in a Kubernetes cluster that you create, configure, and manage.

To leverage this new deployment option, you must set up an ActiveMQ messaging broker on your preferred infrastructure and configure the connection parameters in Partner Manager’s deployment settings.

The Runtime Fabric deployment option was validated on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). Deploying Partner Manager runtime applications on other Runtime Fabric infrastructure is currently not supported.

When deploying Partner Manager runtime applications to Anypoint Runtime Fabric, the length of the AS2 keystore can’t exceed 1024 characters, which limits the algorithm option to SHA1.

Environment-level Deployment Settings

You can now configure Partner Manager deployment settings such as the deployment target, runtime version, deployment region, and runtime capacity allocation at the individual environment level. In previous releases, you could configure deployment settings only at the business-group level.

New UI for Configuring Deployment Settings

You now configure Partner Manager deployment settings in a new Access Management UI.

More Information

For more information about Partner Manager deployment options, see Deploying Partner Manager Runtime Apps.

Other Enhancements

  • The deployment of each environment is now shown on the Partner Manager <host> page.

  • You can now remove schema files that are attached to previously-configured JSON and XML message types if you don’t need schema validation on payloads.

W-13577974

View payload links in the message details view are now easy to click, even when the corresponding file name is very long.

W-13695625

The error response code when Access Management authentication is down is now correct.

W-13806543

Partner Manager now applies schema validation to transactions in outbound message flows with JSON or XML as the target message format when a schema file is attached to the message type definition.

Because this type of validation did not happen in earlier releases, the transactions in existing message flows of this type might fail if the message payload fails during schema validation. If you believe that this could happen, consider removing the schema file association in the message type definition.

W-13915947

The outbound AS2 runtime application is now updated when you deploy a message flow after a host AS2 keystore update.

W-13968139

W-14049820

2.17.0

July 27, 2023

What’s New

You must upgrade the runtime templates of your environment to 2.17.0 before you can begin using the new features in this release. These features are available only for CloudHub runtime deployments.

Transmission replay

  • You can now replay failed or successfully-delivered B2B transmissions.

    When you replay a transmission, Partner Manager reprocesses the source payload as if it was received from the source again. The transmission goes through the validation, acknowledgement, transformation, and routing steps configured in the message flow at the time of replay.

  • Original transmissions that were replayed at least once and transmissions and messages that were created due to a transmission replay have indicators to help you understand the user actions performed on the transmissions.

  • You can navigate between the original transmission record and its associated replayed transmission records.

  • You can filter the transmission search results to show only the transmissions that contain at least one replay.

  • Platform administrators can see the history of user actions related to repalying transmissions in the Anypoint Access Management audit logs.

CSV (Delimited) File Support

  • You can now configure CSV as the message format for all usage types: Receive from partners, Target at host, Source at host, and Send to partners.

Acknowledgement Status Enhancements

  • When a functional acknowledgement received from a partner contains the error code E, the corresponding outbound transmission’s ack status is set to Accepted with errors.

  • When a functional acknowledgement received from a partner contains the error code P, the corresponding outbound transmission’s ack status is set to Partially accepted.

  • When Partner Manager can’t deliver the functional acknowledgement for an inbound transmission, the ack status of the transmission is set to Failed to send.

Other Enhancements

  • You can now configure hex codes as separator characters for outbound EDIFACT and X12 messages. You do this either from the partner’s profile or via custom settings in outbound message flows.

  • You can now configure JSON and XML message types without an associated schema.

    When processing message payloads for message types that don’t have an associated schema, no schema validation is performed.

  • Partner Manager now streams the data when it loads large message payloads to the payload view of the UI.

  • Partner certificate statuses and related color coding are improved.

  • You can now navigate from the transmissions list and transmission details pages to the messages list page to view the list of messages contained within the same transmission.

Source Message Attributes

Attributes such as the source file name, protocol, size, and headers, along with the transmission ID and message ID are now available in a predefined variable named b2bMessageContext.

The attributes in b2bMessageContext are accessible during the execution of the message type reference mapping and the transformation mapping within the message flow execution.

Other Enhancements

  • The new Associated reference identifier field on the New Endpoint dialog enables you to associate a partner reference ID with SFTP and FTP Receive from Partners endpoints that receive non-EDI messages.

    If configured, the partner reference ID is available in the b2bMessageContext variable. Partner Manager uses the ID to route the message via the appropriate message flow when it executes the message type reference mapping.

  • The new Associated message type field on the New Endpoint dialog enables you to associate a static message type with SFTP and FTP Receive from Partners endpoints that receive non-EDI messages.

    Specifying an associated message type overrides the need to prefix the file names with the message type ID. All files received via the endpoint are treated as the configured message type, regardless of the file name prefix.

  • The activity search time period selection now has a new date-time picker.

  • The new Retry interval and Maximum retry attempts fields on the New Endpoint dialog enable you to configure the retry interval and count for HTTP and HTTPS Send to Partners endpoints.

  • The new Acknowlege every transaction field in the X12 receive settings on the partner page enables you to configure a validation rule that requires Partner Manager to generate detailed acknowledgements.

    These acknowledgements include a separate AK2/AK5 (997) segment for every received transaction set, even when all transactions are accepted.

  • The new expandCustomAttributes query parameter is now available to use when calling the Partner Manager Tracking API messages resource. Set the parameter to true to receive the custom message attributes within the API response.

  • Performance in JSON and XML message processing and schema validation steps is now improved.

What’s New

  • You can now update endpoint configurations and deploy the changes with simple steps.

    Note: Before making endpoint updates, you must upgrade your runtime templates to the latest version.

  • Inbound HTTP endpoint applications now return the unique Partner Manager transmission ID in the HTTP response header, x-apm-trx-id.

  • Partner Manager is now compatible with Mule runtime 4.4.

    Note: To deploy your applications with Mule runtime 4.4, you must explicitly select Mule runtime 4.4 in the Use latest version option in the Partner Manager Settings page.

  • Seconds are now shown in transmission and message views.

  • Improvements in overall UI and cache performance in runtime applications for environments with a high volume of partners.

Upgrading to Mule Runtime 4.4

Partner Manager 2.15.0 is compatible with Mule 4.4.

To take advantage of the new features and fixed issues, upgrade to the latest Partner Manager templates, and deploy runtime applications with Mule 4.4:

  1. In Access Management, go to Partner Manager Settings and select either Use latest version or 4.4.0.

  2. In Partner Manager, from a non-production environment, in the Message Flows page, click Upgrade deployments to upgrade to the latest templates.

  3. Run the necessary validation tests for your apps.

  4. Repeat Step 2 in the production environment to deploy your runtime apps to production.

If you don’t want to move your apps to Mule 4.4 at this time, you can follow the previous steps 2-4 to upgrade the runtime templates only and stay on Mule 4.3. Then, when you are ready to deploy your apps on Mule 4.4:

  1. In Runtime Manager, individually update each application to 4.4 in a non-production environment.

  2. Run the necessary validation tests for your apps.

  3. After the tests complete successfully, in Runtime Manager, individually update each runtime application to 4.4 in the production environment.

  4. In Access Management, go to Partner Manager Settings and select either Use latest version or 4.4.0.

2.0.1

November 9, 2019

New Features

None.

Fixed Issue

Transmission data attributes were not being shown for failed transmissions. These attributes include partners involved in the transmission, EDI format and metadata for the interchange. All new deployments use the latest version of the DocumentProcessingService application.

If you have any message flows deployed with Partner Manager 2.0.0, use Anypoint Runtime Manager to remove the existing DocumentProcessingService application. To get latest version of DocumentProcessingService, use the Deploy button to redeploy any message flow from Anypoint Partner Manager.

Removing the DocumentProcessingService application pauses transaction processing until you deploy these message flows again. For information about deleting applications, refer to Managing Applications on Your Own Servers.

Known Issues

None.

Anypoint Partner Manager 2.0 delivers templatized B2B integration flows that can be configured via the Partner Manager management console. The templatized flows leverage the power of the Mule runtime engine 4.x, Dataweave transformations, and connectors such as the X12, SFTP, AS2, and HTTP connector.

  • Simplified, wizard-driven configuration of B2B flows
    Anypoint Partner Manager 2.0 introduces a message flow wizard that enables users to easily set up B2B integration flow components such as endpoints, messages, maps, and acknowledgments. Furthermore, the solution enables the reuse of the building blocks of a B2B integration flow thereby speeding up trading partner technical onboarding. You can use Anypoint Partner Manager v2 to setup inbound - receive flows with your trading partners using protocols such as SFTP and AS2.

  • Support for hybrid deployments
    With this release of Anypoint Partner Manager 2.0, users are able to leverage the cloud-based Partner Manager management console to configure and manage their B2B flows, while the corresponding B2B integration flows based on the packaged templates provided by the Anypoint Partner Manager 2.0 solution, processes workloads on Mule runtime engine 4.x which can be hosted on-premise in your data centers or in public clouds of your preference.

  • Tracking of B2B transaction activity
    Anypoint Partner Manager 2.0 provides a detailed view into the B2B integration transactions processed on your Mule runtime engine. The solution allows you to monitor trading partner transmission activity via a set of end-to-end events related to transmission metadata, messages, and errors. The information includes:

    • The received EDI payload that can be viewed and downloaded

    • Acknowledgements (such as TA1 and/or 997/999) that are sent back to the partner
