Internal Enhancements

Internal Only:
This information is internal only; do not share outside of CivicPlus.

Complex Agenda Import Improvements

Enhanced the Content Import Tool to better support complex agenda imports. This streamlines administrative workflows by reducing manual steps when creating and associating agenda content.

Authenticated Swagger Testing Improved in Non-Production Environments

Updated non-production {{glossary.API}} tooling so authenticated PUT testing works more reliably in Swagger. This supports faster validation and troubleshooting for supported API workflows.

Content Import Authentication Reliability Improved

Resolved authentication issues affecting content import service workflows on certain production sites. This helps internal content operations complete API-based tasks more consistently across environments.

CP Tools Site Setup Auto-Fill Updates

Improved the Add New Site workflow in {{glossary.CP}} Tools by auto-filling selected fields and reducing unnecessary required input. This helps streamline site setup and reduce manual data entry.

Updated Add New Site dropdown options in CP Tools to better align with current product naming and setup workflows. This improves consistency and reduces confusion during site creation.

CP Tools Keyboard Shortcut Behavior Corrected

Fixed an issue where typing the letter "k" could unexpectedly open sidebar search in CP Tools after shortcut use. The search shortcut now behaves more predictably during normal text entry.

Additional Application Security Hardening

Completed security-focused improvements related to query handling, dynamic string safety, and related code paths. This work supports stronger application resilience and safer request processing.

Runtime Security Policy Improvements

Implemented additional security improvements in runtime configuration and related application protections. These updates support more consistent security behavior across the platform.

Endpoint Security Protections Expanded

Completed security work focused on request validation, endpoint protections, and related access-control safeguards. This strengthens defensive controls across affected application areas.

File Path and Upload Security Hardening

Improved protections around file handling and upload-related code paths. This work helps reduce risk and improve the safety of affected administrative workflows.

SQL Deployment Reliability Improved

Improved handling for failing {{glossary.SQL}} deployments so database changes are applied more consistently across environments. This supports better environment alignment and deployment stability.

Large Content Import Upload Timeout Improvements

Adjusted handling for large Content Import uploads to reduce timeout-related failures. This supports more reliable import workflows for large asset packages.

Broken Legacy Agenda Attachment Links Restored

Resolved an issue affecting legacy agenda attachment links on an existing site so impacted files can be accessed again without altering visible agenda content. This restores continuity for previously published records.

Deployment Process Resiliency Improvements

Completed follow-up operational work related to a prior News Flash and {{glossary.FAQ}} disruption incident. These changes improve release sequencing and help reduce deployment-related risk.

Security Preparation and Documentation Work Completed

Completed supporting preparation and documentation tied to broader security hardening efforts. This work improves readiness and traceability for ongoing platform security initiatives.

Accessibility Toggle Validation Completed

Completed validation work for paused and play-control accessibility functionality behind toggles. This supports safer phased rollout of accessibility-related improvements.
