Resolved issues

Domino Adapter

  • Using special characters as part of the search parameter for the $filter in the GET method returned errors. An example is the = sign in the search parameter value col1 eq B=S. Performing GET method with $filter=col1 eq B=S would return an error. You have to enter it as $filter=col1 eq Bx_003dS.
  • The $FILES field wasn't usable for the $filter query parameter to find documents with a specified attachment, for example, $filter=x_0024FILES eq attName.txt.
  • An incorrect access token was used for an operation when multiple users performed operations simultaneously while using a shared connection instance to a Domino REST API server.
  • Volt MX Go Iris threw an exception on a GET operation on view data models when the maximum depth of the view hierarchy is more than two hierarchy levels. An example of a view hierarchy with more than two hierarchy levels is a document with a response and a response to that response.

VoltFormula

  • API Fixes
    • Fixed the 0 second or minute in @Date function.
    • Fixed documentation of arrays.
    • Removed Compatibility category in the API Reference.
    • Fixed use of the function MROUND instead of ROUND.
