Improvements#

  • Extended file upload support for additional Office and text-based document formats.

  • Enhanced user permission validation to apply a role-based fallback when project permissions exceed the scope of the user role.

  • Added an all-permissions matching method to improve the accuracy of permission validation.

  • Added the ability to rename items collections.

  • Improved validation for asset and widget endpoints and added boolean type conversion for query parameters.

  • Updated the MySQL connection charset from utf8 to utf8mb4 to match the table encoding and ensure full Unicode support.

Bug Fixes#

  • Single-page PDFs not handled correctly when using the retriever with image reasoning in Squirro Chat.

  • /var/log/squirro/topic/stderr.log growing continuously due to DeprecationWarning messages in wsgiservice-based services.

  • Item details loading indefinitely when the chat widget was opened directly from a URL.

  • Chat not functioning correctly with RSS data sources.

  • Context variable propagation in asynchronous executor calls affecting tracing.

  • Semantic search plugin not correctly handling the TERMS array filter syntax.

  • Index Manager /cluster/health endpoint not responding correctly.

  • Double quotes not escaped when applying a facet filter from the Labels widget.

  • Incorrect interpolation of encrypted configuration values.

  • Collection update operations not returning the correct 409 status code when a collection with the same name already exists.

  • World Map widget crashing when the map component was not yet initialized.

  • Data loading failures when using the Squirro connector with instances running a version prior to 3.15.1.

  • Chat with Document feature missing the item ID when dashboard selections were active.

  • Parent item not always cleaned up from the index and neither retried nor moved to a failed batch when sub-items failed to index.

Known Issues#

  • In specific scenarios, cross-lingual information retrieval for semantic search may deliver lower-than-expected quality (SQ-28171).

  • An error may occur when chatting with an uploaded .pptx file in Squirro Chat (SQ-31480).
