Nintex RPA Release 22.3.1
Release Date: March 2022
Nintex RPA 22.3.1 brings new features, security capabilities, and improvements to our stability and performance, thereby paving the way for the implementation of our cloud-based solution.
New Features and Enhancements
We now integrated the CyberArk OS Credential into Console Plus.
CyberArk is a Privileged Access Management (PAM) tool that securely manages your sensitive data. You can now manage your credentials from the Credentials Vault, or the CyberArk Vault with the highest security standards.
Remote Triggers are available for FCAaaS deployments.
As more and more enterprises are moving to SaaS software, we've added the ability to choose between the local machine or the cloud. Triggers can now be managed from the Nintex Kryon server and micro-services can now manage solutions on the local machine.
You were tired of the dependencies and limitations of Advanced Commands, and we heard your requests for a change.
Along with refactoring the Java engines to be more robust, scalable, and with higher test coverage, we migrated the Java Advanced Commands to Dynamic Advanced Commands.
In place of full installation packages, our new Distribution System (Package Manager) provides the ability to distribute smaller packages like DACs, upgrades, and other Nintex Kryon software (like Studio + extensions).
Our Attended Robot Search is new and improved.
Using dtSearch, our advanced Attended Robot Search engine can perform searches across any field type, it supports a wide variety of data types and the use of Boolean operators, and the index automatically updates after saving new data.
We have implemented functionality to automatically update the search index when a wizard's details change.
We have added Trigger APIs to our vast selection of Wizard, Queue, and Task APIs.
Approximately 60 PS/CS and customer bugs have been addressed:
