Version: 4.18.0.2379
Release Date: November 3, 2020
Platform version 4.18 was available on November 2, 2020. This release focused on adding new connectors for Microsoft GCC High environments as well as adding the ability to map content types and managed metadata for Microsoft SharePoint. The release also contains several other beneficial new features, feature enhancements, and fixes. Learn more about the release below. For detailed information about individual items, refer to the Platform Documentation Center.
Two new connectors are available in the DryvIQ platform to make connections to Microsoft GCC High environments. There is a new Microsoft Office 365 GCC High connector and a new Microsoft OneDrive for Business GCC High connector. Use the links below to learn more about each of the new connectors.

For Microsoft SharePoint Online, you can now map content types and managed metadata as part of the metadata mapping for a job. Use the links below to learn more about mapping each type of metadata.
When creating a new Box connection through the user interface, you can now select the the delete behavior you want DryvIQ to use when deleting files or folders. A soft delete moves items to the trash/recycle bin, and a hard delete permanently removes the item. Soft delete is the default delete behavior; however, selecting to hard delete ensures the platform trash doesn’t fill up with unwanted files. This option was previously only available for Box through the REST API. Learn more here.
You can now add a job filter that will include or exclude a file or folder based on the path. Learn more here.
The username and password fields when setting up the SMTP server for email notifications are now optional to support servers that don’t require authentication. Learn more here.
DryvIQ expanded its character replacement logic to include leading and trailing spaces in file and folder names. DryvIQ verifies file and folder names to identify unsupported characters based on the platform and replaces invalid characters with an underscore (_) so the files and folders can be transferred. The logic now includes leading and trailing spaces in file and folder names. DryvIQ replaces the space rather than trimming it because trimming the space could cause duplicate names. Adding the underscore ensures the names remains unique.
Safeguards have been put in place to prevent system jobs from being deleted, reset, rescheduled, renamed, or duplicated. These options will not be available when selecting system jobs.
DryvIQ has implemented length checks on usernames (4-255 characters), passwords (8-64 characters), and report names (1-2000 characters) to prevent unnecessary resource consumption.
Impersonation using email lookup in a CSOM call no longer fails for the Microsoft OneDrive for Business connections.
Shorter path filenames no longer get flagged with long URL errors for Microsoft OneDrive for Business connections.
A fix for the Microsoft Office 365 connector prevents jobs from being stuck in a pending state by implementing a timeout if a status check request never responds.
Files moving from NFS to Microsoft Office 365 no longer throw a “surrogate pair is invalid” error.
SharePoint connectors no longer change the case of SharePoint library URLs.
NFS connections can be selected when creating a network home drive mapping job in the user interface.
When creating a job for an NFS connection in the user interface, sub-folders under a root desktop folder now display.
Renaming nested folders on Box no longer results in an error during job execution.
A NULL check was added to the Autodesk BIM 360 connector since not all environments return version information.
The Autodesk BIM 360 connector only returns BIM 360 hubs and filters out legacy hubs.
A fix for the Egnyte Connector prevents duplicate file renames when DryvIQ identifies a new version of the file in a sync job.
When manually selecting jobs for a new report, the child job names will display with the convention job name in the list to help differentiate between the child jobs.
Cancelled jobs no longer appear in the “Running” filter and can now be restarted.
Broken context-sensitive helps links have been fixed.
Broken links in DryvIQ’s API documents have been fixed.
When creating a non-admin user in DryvIQ, the system no longer displays the incorrect message that the user will be given administrative privileges.
Jobs with a job type “move” no longer delete folders that contain filtered items in nested subfolders.
Scheduled jobs waiting for available resources to run are now properly in a “queued” status rather than “idle.”
For simulation jobs using the duplicate_names:rename policy, DryvIQ no longer flags content with leading spaces as duplicates, and the content will be properly analyzed.
DryvIQ no longer crashes when attempting to edit a custom date range filter on a duplicated job.
Global throttle rules now respect the UTC time zone.
The drop-down list for job options now hides after a selection has been made.
Scheduled jobs that are started manually outside of the schedule will properly display a “running” status rather than being stuck in a “queued” status.
