Details

🚀 New functionality

  • More information on devices with multiple antivirus installed. In the Security tab of a device’s detail view in the Workspaces module, a new field showing additional information appears when more than one antivirus is installed, helping identify and prevent conflicts between security solutions. These data are also available as a column in the views of Workspaces and Servers.

🔨 Improvements

  • Predefined categories in microservices. Allow defining classification categories for microservices. This helps maintain consistency and avoid the creation of random or duplicate categories.

  • Reorganized Portal menu. The Information, Products, and Modules sections are now found in Portal -> Settings -> Organization, within the tabs: General, Products, and Modules.

new-menu

  • Clone microservices in sub-organizations. Sub-organizations have the option to clone the microservices created in their environment to the main organization.

  • Improved flows

    • New format. A left sidebar menu has been added to facilitate access to all functionalities.

    • New cooldown minimum time. The minimum value has increased from 1 to 10 minutes, providing greater control and stability in flow execution.

  • Static workspaces groups without agent. Static workspaces groups can now include devices that do not have FlexxAgent active.

  • Filter optimization. Filters by workspaces groups and installed applications in the workspaces module have been improved for more agile use.

  • CrowdStrike

    Transition to Alerts. The integration has been adapted to changes in the CrowdStrike API, using the Alerts endpoint instead of Detections, which is now obsolete.

    Better performance. Threat detection collection is now 40% faster. And they are collected completely and without delay, even with a very high volume of logs.

    Greater data consistency. The displayname field in detections now always contains valid information, preventing it from appearing empty.

  • Optimized searches

    • In the Event Log list of the Workspaces module, searches and filters are faster and more efficient.
    • In the Jobs section of the same module, record query performance has been improved.
  • API improvements. Documentation now includes details of the fields returned by each endpoint. Additionally, inconsistencies were fixed where numeric fields returned "" (empty string) instead of null when no values were available.

  • DeviceManagerEntries API endpoint fixes for startswith/endswith functions.

  • Stricter parameter validation in API. Previously, if an API call included a non-existent parameter, the system ignored it and executed the query, this could cause issues (e. g., writing filer instead of filter). Invalid parameters are now validated correctly, returning a 40X error instead of unexpected results.

  • Status updates for scheduled shutdown jobs. Previously, jobs were marked as Completed with errors when some machines were already shut down, causing confusion. Now the job ends as Completed.

  • Status updates for Wake on LAN jobs. Previously, jobs were marked as Completed with errors when some machines were already shut down, causing confusion. Now the job ends as Completed.

  • Bulk support for pop-up, disconnect, log off, and force log off actions. Multiple actions are now grouped into a single bulk job, simplifying execution at scale.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue where alert thresholds remained linked to the former tenant after a change.
  • Fixed the ability to add networks from other tenants to Locations. There is now a restriction preventing cross-assignments between tenants.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented marking notifications as attended on devices outside the domain.
  • Resolved a security vulnerability in notifications. If a notification was sent with JavaScript code, it could execute when accessing the Workspaces menu after expiring. The risk has already been eliminated.
  • Fixed a translation error when removing messaging services.
  • Fixed an issue where workspace group updates included null elements.
  • Fixed an incorrect state in remote assistance jobs when the screen closed before receiving the AnyDesk ID.
  • Optimized operation execution with overall performance and stability improvements.
  • Fixed an error that automatically changed the report group with the same title as another modified by a user, making differentiation difficult.
  • Fixed the ReportingGroup endpoint, which did not correctly apply groupby/aggregate.
  • Fixed an issue in the notification detail view on a device, which incorrectly opened navigation.
  • Fixed inconsistency in public IP information between different machine views.

FlexxAgent

FlexxAgent version 25.9.1

  • 🔎 UDS brokers detection. More visibility and filters.
  • 🌐 More compatible Wake on LAN. Supports UDP 7 and UDP 9.
  • Improved performance in device screens with notifications.
  • 🐞 FlexxAgent in diagnostic mode. New Agent trace logging with automatic deactivation after 24 hours.
Details about this version

🚀 New functionality

  • UDS Detection. FlexxAgent now also recognizes UDS brokers. This enables filtering of devices by type of broker, improving visibility and simplifying both management and troubleshooting.

🔨 Improvements

  • Wake on LAN with greater compatibility. The Wake on LAN process also includes UDP port 9, in addition to the already supported UDP port 7. This ensures greater compatibility with different devices and network configurations.
  • Improved performance in workspace screen with notifications enabled.
  • FlexxAgent debug mode for diagnostic purposes. New diagnostic mode in FlexxAgent to help troubleshoot issues. Renamed 'Session analyzer trace logging' to 'Agent trace logging' because this option enables trace logging for FlexxAgent too collecting event log events every minute. The trace logging is automatically deactivated after 24 hours.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed an error in power actions on Azure virtual machines after the agent starts. Power commands now work correctly after initialization.
  • Resolved the “Access Denied” error during some installations.

  • Fixed a failure in FRA form detection after a reconnection in attended remote support that sometimes prevented connection even after accepting from the destination device.
  • Fixed an issue where remote support tools could run before the user accepted in attended sessions.
  • Fixed an issue in unattended remote assistance notification. If the process closed or the user ended it, the notification did not reappear.
  • Resolved an issue in workspace group creation, where the required name field was not validated.
