v1.1.1 - What's new or changed

v1.1.1 - What's new or changed

Release date: December 02, 2024

New

  • When using the DRAPI IdP users can be locked out if they enter incorrect credentials several times.  You can now view and reinstate these users without waiting for the lockout period to end via the Management console. For more information, see Release suspended users.

  • Users with valid JWT tokens can now be identified via the Users tab on the Management console. For more information, see Identify known users with valid JWT token.

  • The Domino REST API configuration settings and where they are located can be identified via the Config src tab on the Management console. For more information, see Find configuration sources.

  • Domino REST API administrators can now customize which API schemas and endpoints are available to meet specific requirements and use cases. For more information, see Customize available API schemas and endpoints.

  • Implemented the Monaco Editor to the Text View mode on the Source tab on the Schema Management page of the Admin UI. With this implementation, users can now also edit the database schema from the Text View mode. For more information, see Edit database schema JSON.

  • Added a new OpenAPI landing page that shows all the general API schemas and application-specific schemas, enabling users to easily find the schemas they require.

  • Added OpenAPI schema and Swagger page for the WebDAV API that provides endpoints to perform remote Web content authoring operations that support the Office Round Trip Experience and Virtual Spreadsheet features of Domino REST API.

  • Added the console command tell restapi idpstatus that shows the state of the configured identity providers when executed on the Domino console.

Improvements

  • When adding a JSON object to the database schema on the Source tab on the Schema Management page in the Admin UI, the value of the JSON object is now validated to ensure the correct format based on the selected JSON object type. For more information, see Edit database schema JSON.

  • When adding fields to a form on the Schema Management page in the Admin UI, users can now identify the property of the field by hovering over the info icon beside the field name. For more information, see Change form configuration.

  • The Clear passkey option has been removed from the Admin UI login page to avoid user confusion. This option only clears local storage data, not the actual passkey. To enhance the user experience, both the LOG IN WITH PASSWORD and LOG IN WITH PASSKEY options are available on the Admin UI login page. For more information, see Use WebAuthn (Passkey) to log in to Admin UI.

  • Added the column attributes twisties and responsesonly to the GET v1/lists endpoint response when the columns parameter is set to true.

  • Added hourly task to refresh TLS certificates when using the Domino Certificate Manager.

  • Implemented the remaining special-text functions when retrieving a view. Special-text functions are calculated at runtime and include functions, such as @DocNumber, @DocDecendants, @DocParentNumber.

Resolved Issues

  • Forms or views with some special characters were not encoded when performing a REST call to retrieve the list of fields or columns, resulting in a 405 Method Not Allowed error response.
  • Editing a schema in the Admin UI led to an empty page when the name of the schema form or view contained #.
  • When calling the GET v1/lists/{name} endpoint using the view alias, the configured external names were not retrieved; instead, the column programmatic names were retrieved.
  • Implemented various fixes resolving issues when using Domino Certificate Manager to enable HTTPs.
  • Fixed the issue with the Domino REST API Task not always showing correctly via Domino Administrator Monitor pane. 
  • Fixed the issues around Office Round Trip Editing in Windows using Webdav APIs.

v1.0.10 - What's new or changed

v1.0.10 - What's new or changed

Release date: February 22, 2024

New

  • Added POST v1/profiledocument endpoint to create and update an existing profile document.

Important

A POST request replaces all fields listed in your schema. Ensure to include all the fields in the POST request body and the corresponding values you want to retain and overwrite.

  • Added DELETE v1/profiledocument endpoint to delete a profile document as long as the schema allows it.
  • Added GET setup-v1/admin/purge endpoint to discover scopes that no longer have a valid schema because the schema no longer exists, the schema has invalid JSON, a corrupted NSF, or the NSF no longer exists.
  • Added POST setup-v1/admin/purge endpoint to specify the schema and scope information to remove using the GET setup-v1/admin/purge endpoint response.

  • Added Microsoft Office round-trip editing capability to simplify document editing experience by launching Office documents directly into their native applications and saving changes back to the server. For more information, see Setup Office Round Trip Experience.

Improvements

  • The GET v1/profiledocument endpoint has been updated. Previously, this endpoint returned the complete profile document by default, but starting this release, you must define a schema to get a Profile document. The need for the schema also applies to the new POST v1/profiledocument and DELETE v1/profiledocument endpoints.

    Profile documents do not always have a Form associated with them. In such cases, you must create a schema for the Form named "Profile" (case sensitive). Profile documents without a Form will look for the "Profile" schema and return the error "No form and mode configuration found for Profile/default" if the schema doesn't exist.

    The easiest way to create the "Profile" schema is to create a Form named "Profile" in the database containing all fields you need to retrieve or update and then add the Form Schema. Alternatively, you can create the schema programmatically by following the steps:

    1. Call the GET setup-v1/schema endpoint to get the schema where you want to add the "Profile" form.
    2. Copy the response to a text editor, and modify it by adding the "Profile" form and the fields required using other Form schemas as a guide.
    3. Update the whole schema using the POST setup-v1/schema endpoint.

    Make sure to save a copy of the GET setup-v1/schema response in case you need to revert to the previous version. In a future release, you will be able to add a Form schema for a form that doesn't exist in the database and will be able to add the Profile using this method.

    Note

    The GET v1/profiledocument endpoint no longer creates a profile document. Instead, use the POST v1/profiledocument endpoint to create one.

  • Reduced heap memory used by Domino REST API.

  • Added option to use a named key when using the v1/profiledocument endpoints.
  • Added the date time attributes of a datetime field when executing the setup-v1/design/forms/{designName} endpoint.

Resolved Issues

  • Passkey on Admin UI didn't work on newer versions of Safari.
  • The setup-v1/design/{designType}/{designName} endpoint returned shared libraries.

Others

  • Implemented documentation updates.
  • Installer jar files:

    • For Domino 14: restapiInstall-r14.jar
    • For Domino 12: restapiInstall-r12.jar
  • Docker image version for docker compose .env file (CONTAINER_IMAGE):

New

  • HCL Domino REST API now supports WebAuthn allowing users to log in to the Admin UI using a passkey.

  • Introduced access control for scopes via maximum access level to control the maximum access anyone using a scope might have. For example, if a scope's maximum access level is Editor and you are a Manager, the API runs as Editor. This feature doesn't increase a user's access level. The default for existing scopes is Editor.

  • Introduced $SETUP scope that can be added to an application, which needs access to $SETUP endpoints. For more information, see Scopes.

  • Added ftSearchQuery to the GET v1/lists/{name} endpoint to filter a view based on a full text search query.

  • Added ability to retrieve a database's DXL utilizing the GET setup-v1/dxl endpoint.
  • Updated the Domino REST API serializer / deserializer so that only items specific to the fields and their types are added to the schema when creating or updating the schema. There should be no issues with pre-existing schemas, and the schema will update next time something in that schema has changed.

Resolved issues

  • An issue occurred with GET setup-v1/design/{designType}/{designName} when the designName contained characters that would normally be encoded.

  • Searches for the text/markdown MIME part of the document and returns it if existing when retrieving a document where the Rich Text representation is Markdown but stored as MIME.
  • Updated the Database Views activation page in Schema Management for better user experience.

Resolved issues

  • admin-v1/access/groups parameters weren't working as expected.
  • v1/scope/form/{form} didn't return the form information when using the form's alias.
  • The default configuration wasn't set for some attributes when using the Admin UI Quick Config or the setup-v1/admin/quickconfig endpoint.
  • v1/bulk/delete returned an error instead of deleting the document.

Others

  • Changed default Rich Text representation to MIME in the documentation.
  • Docker image version for docker compose .env file (CONTAINER_IMAGE) is docker.qs.hcllabs.net/hclcom/projectkeep-r12:1.18.3.
v1.0.4 - What's new or changed

v1.0.4 - What's new or changed

New

  • Added parameter metaAdditional= to the /lists/{name} endpoint in api/v1 to return additional metadata for each row. Currently just returning the Form name of the underlying document.
  • Added the OpenID /userinfo endpoint in api/v1 for OIDC compliance.

Improvements

  • Increased throughput performance of most endpoints.
  • Modified the /admin/quickconfig endpoint in api/setup-v1 to add default values to some Schema items if not specified.

Resolved issues

  • A page in the Admin UI may time out while bringing up a list of databases if there are a lot of databases.
  • The /attachments/{unid} endpoint in api/v1 didn't honor the fieldName= parameter. This parameter specifies the richtext field to attach to, instead, it attached to the document.

Others

  • Docker image version for docker compose .env file (CONTAINER_IMAGE) is docker.qs.hcllabs.net/hclcom/projectkeep-r12:1.17.0.
v1.0.3 - What's new or changed

v1.0.3 - What's new or changed

New

  • /lists/{listname} API has a new parameter keyAllowPartial=true added to allow partial key matches.
  • New endpoint added to the setup API, call DELETE /admin/cache to reset the Domino REST API Scope and Schema cache, call if you are modifying Scopes or Schemas directly in Notes as opposed to the API or the Admin UI.

Improvements

  • Removed invalid Scopes (openid and email) from the Swagger UI dropdown list of APIs / Scopes.

Resolved issues

  • The Admin UI became unresponsive when populating the Database list when defining a new Schema when there were a lot of databases on the server.
  • A JWT token failed to decode if it's claims contained extended characters.
  • On a Windows Domino server, the .wellknown issuer may have been wrong.
  • In various endpoints, an error may have been thrown if a Rich Text CD record returns invalid or unknown data. This issue may have also prevented a database from showing up in the Admin UI.
  • When calling the /design/{designType}/{designName} and using the nsfPath parameter as opposed to the dataSource parameter resulted in the API trying to return that design information from KeepConfig.nsf instead of the specified database.

Others

  • Docker image version for docker compose .env file (CONTAINER_IMAGE) is docker.qs.hcllabs.net/hclcom/projectkeep-r12:1.15.0.
v1.0.2 - What's new or changed

v1.0.2 - What's new or changed

New

  • Added ability to view the Domino Server console live as well as send commands from the Domino REST API management page if using admin credentials. See Domino Console Configuration for more information.

  • Added ability to send Domino Server console commands via API if using admin credentials.

  • Added ability to view the schema json within the Admin UI.
  • Added ability for customers to use a different name for fields (like an alias) in a schema,  good for obfuscating field names or for descriptive naming.

Improvements

  • Increased speed of design element population in the Admin UI.
  • Increased stability of the Admin UI when the retrieving complex databases.
  • The setup-v1/design json output been modified so the design element key is the UNID, previously the key was the design element name. This change was made because design element names are not necessarily unique and part of the fix for design element population noted above.

v1.0.1 - What's new or changed

v1.0.1 - What's new or changed

New

  • The installer now has an upgrade option. Please see the installation instructions for more information.

  • A Quick Config option is now available to the Admin UI (lightning bolt on the left side). This feature creates a populated Schema and Scope based on the database you choose.

    • The Schema is configured with all visible Forms and Views.
    • All non-system fields are added to the Forms.

Improvements

  • Added the PATCH verb to the APIs /api/v1/document/{unid} and /api/v1/bulk/update allowing a document update without the need to provide all fields in the schema.

  • Field schema has been modified. The boolean fields readOnly and writeOnly were removed and replaced with String field fieldAccess which specifies the access of this field, either RW, RO or WO. If existing schemas have the old fields, they will be still processed correctly.

  • null has been added as valid json for document updating, setting a field value to null will remove that field from the document.
  • Inactive scopes will no longer show in the Swagger UI's drop down list since they're not available.
  • Performance improvements.

Resolved issues

  • The Domino restapi task may not successfully start on Linux Domino.
  • A document was prevented from being created or updated if one of it's multi-value fields had empty value(s).
  • Fixed multiple issues around odata.

Others

  • Docker image version for docker compose .env file (CONTAINER_IMAGE) is docker.qs.hcllabs.net/hclcom/projectkeep-r12:1.10.0.
v1.0 - What's changed since the Early Access Release

v1.0 - What's changed since the Early Access Release

Improvements

  • The core api (/api/v1) has changed name, it's now basis, but still has the same path (/api/v1).
  • The design, schema, scope, and some administrative APIs that were in the core api have been moved to the setup api (/api/setup-v1). This has been done so that these apis can be disabled from a user facing server.
  • The Domino REST API landing page now has a single button for the Swagger UI, once in the Swagger UI, use the drop down at the top right to switch between API specifications.
