Release 2021.1

Headline Changes​

  • New versioning schema (year.month.release)

  • Add global email settings

    In previous versions, you had to configure email connection details per Email Stage. Now, you can (and should) configure global settings.

    This is documented under the docker-compose and Kubernetes sections.

  • New notification system

    More info can be found under Notifications and Transports.

    During the update, some default rules will be created. These rules notify you about policy exceptions, configuration errors and updates.

    These notifications will be sent using a default transport, which uses the global email transport.
