Breaking Change

  • Unified KPI Data Model
    Legacy KPI structures have been migrated to a new unified schema. APIs and report templates using deprecated fields may require reconfiguration.

  • Trace Log Reset Required for SCM Processor
    With the introduction of the new SCM processor, existing trace logs must be cleared before initiating a fresh data pull. This ensures clean synchronization and prevents conflicts with previously cached data. Please clear all trace logs prior to enabling the updated processor.

Bug Fixes

  • Multiple bug fixes and stability improvements for a smoother experience.
