LDP Release 26.3.0

LDP-7957

Introduces the foundation for Lobster's public Platform API — a curated, resource-oriented, OpenAPI-documented API surface covering core business domains such as Profiles, Channels, and Partners (read-only in this release).

LDP-7956

AMQP connections now support OAuth2 client credentials authentication, enabling direct connectivity to SAP Advanced Event Mesh, SAP Integration Suite, and other brokers that require OAuth2. Configure Client ID, Client Secret, Token URL, and optional Scope in the AMQP channel settings.

LDP-7726

UI: The color themes have been completely remastered. Existing customized style templates will be migrated and adjusted to the new color palette. See Style Templates in the Lobster Platform client. Dark bluish and Bright have been declared deprecated.

LDP-7543

Added templates for ZUGFeRD 2.5.0 and Factur-X 1.0.9.

LDP-7378

The grids of the DMZs and Nodes in the view “Cluster, DMZ, Loadbalancing” now show the current version and in case the downloaded update of the particular cluster element.

LDP-7355

Resolved an issue where a "Discard changes" popup incorrectly appeared when closing a profile without making any changes.

LDP-7302

Enhanced /system/health to show per-node installed and downloaded update versions, include the Node Controller explicitly, correct worker node type naming to WORKER_NODE, and expose temporary fallback status for the Node Controller.

LDP-7280

The new view “System/DMZ/Loadbalancing” can now also be found by the keywords “restart” and “cluster”.

LDP-7198

Updated the dropdown chevron color to match the text color for better visual consistency across themes.

LDP-7195

Redesigned right-click menus for Profiles, ASM, CI, ETL, and Test Cases with clearer icons, improved wording, and better grouping of actions for a more intuitive experience.

LDP-6966

Trading Partner Manager now supports creating and managing inbound and outbound HTTPS channels directly on the Lobster Data Platform, including full channel lifecycle operations via the REST API. Authentication options have been extended with OpenID (issuer + audience validation) and OAuth2 (client credentials grant type) support, allowing partners to configure token-based security for their HTTPS channels through the Trading Partner Manager.

LDP-6963

Process Map: Added JSON and XML export functionality

LDP-6961

Process Map: Added image export functionality

LDP-6909

Control center: Job log views like Errors and Jobs by Profile now all have Pathfinder features and additional info available

LDP-6896

Pathfinder Auto-Mapping (MAPS): Users can now generate AI-powered mapping suggestions for Profile Phase 3 by clicking "Create auto-mapping," which leverages Pathfinder to propose field mappings between source and target structures, categorized by confidence level (confident matches, needs review, no match). A new review UI allows users to inspect suggestions with human-readable rationales, validate them against sample test files, and selectively approve or reject mappings before applying them to the profile. Previously mapped fields are preserved and excluded from new suggestions, ensuring existing work is never overwritten.

LDP-6880

Improved hover cursors across UI components for a more intuitive and consistent interaction experience.

LDP-6852

The OFTPService now supports RSA-OAEP-ciphers as required by Odette

LDP-6809

}

LDP-6592

The user overview now also offers a column that lists all SSO providers assigned to a user

LDP-6589

Updated the default user form and moved authentication related settings to a new “Authentication” section

LDP-6530

Channels: Added identity picker modal to additional values tab

LDP-6283

Added a REST API endpoint (POST /system/shutdown) to trigger a coordinated cluster shutdown with a configurable grace period and reason.

LDP-6180

Logging configuration settings for e.g., log retain days were now moved from the startup.xml to the Log Settings view.

LDP-6127

Admins can now configure selected platform settings directly in the UI; no more manual startup.xml editing.

What's new:

• System E-mails (Administration > Base Settings > System e-mails): Configure SMTP(S) or a Mail Channel for system notifications, set sender/recipient addresses, toggle alert conditions, and test the connection — all from the UI.

• Log Settings (Control Center > Logs > Log Settings): Renamed from "Configuration"; general log settings are now editable through a dedicated tab, with MongoDB-aware field availability.

• Storage & Backup (Administration > Base Settings > Storage, backup): Renamed from "Storage"; new "Backups" tab lets admins set the profile backup retention period.

• Migration: Existing startup.xml values are automatically imported on first access — no reconfiguration needed after upgrade.

• Access control: All new screens are restricted to Admin (Super User) roles.

LDP-5725

If the StorageService detects a broken database connection, it will now trigger a restart of the Lobster Data Platform instead of a shutdown.

LDP-5724

We've optimized the way profile backup files are stored on disk to improve performance, particularly for high-availability / load-balanced (HA/LB) deployments with a large number of jobs.

Problem: In HA clusters with a shared backup root (e.g., AWS EFS), all threads compete for the same directory metadata lock on the flat legacy bucket — throughput barely scales beyond a single thread.

Solution: New nested-bucket layout — inside every 50,000-job bucket there are now 100 sub-folders (job_number % 100). Concurrent writes land in different directories → no lock contention → up to 8.5× faster at 50 threads (mixed read/write on EFS).

Configuration via JVM property “profile.backup.handler.implementation”:

• (not set) / “legacy” : Existing behavior, unchanged (default)

• “nested” : New layout + legacy fallback — recommended for all HA clusters

Migration: No manual file migration required. In nested mode, new jobs are written in the new layout; existing legacy files are read transparently via fallback.

Revert warning: Jobs written after switching to nested are no longer accessible if you revert to legacy.

LDP-5501

ETL: In case of exceptions at runtime caught by be the executor, the scriptella XML configuration is appended to the log message.

LDP-7825

Reduced browser console error messages about web socket push messages.

LDP-7781

System info widget: The used memory value is now showing the correct value instead of always 0.

LDP-7680

Fixes to the Storage path benchmark: mounts of the same underlying share via different paths now show separately, network-mounted paths load faster, each device displays its mount point in the header, and folder paths display consistently — relative to the server home when configured so, absolute otherwise.

LDP-7647

UI: Fixed blank previews in the top bar.

LDP-7645

OpenAPI viewer: Added a system property “hub.datawizard.api.viewer.whitelist” which configures a whitelist for the OpenAPI viewer to restrict which endpoints can be fetched, mitigating unauthenticated Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF). The format of the property is host:port;host2:port2

LDP-7602

Lobster Bridge HTTP requests are now accepted from the Lobster Data Platform regardless which partner is used for the Lobster Bridge

LDP-7534

Lobster Bridge can now resolve the filter by the given id.

LDP-7493

Locked profiles can no longer be saved, cached, or backed up by users who don't hold the lock, ensuring profile locking is properly enforced.

LDP-7388

DataCockpit Logs: Direct links to specific logs are now supported via guest-user login tokens.

LDP-7371

Commlog-searches ensures to get all recent entries if the search is restricted to a maximum amount of rows.

LDP-7365

FtpProfileConfiguration: Fixed encoding problems in created CSV-files on some systems.

LDP-7358

SSH (SCP/SFTP): Corrected certificate section labels from "encryption" to "public key authentication" to accurately reflect the purpose of the configured certificates.

LDP-7321

Profile: Uploaded files in the "Start Profile" dialog are now displayed immediately after upload without requiring the view to be reopened.

LDP-7094

Fixed log overview tabs (Log, Additional info, combined view) so they are now always selectable again after switching views

LDP-6984

Process map: The “back to overview” button did not work when navigating to a profile from the process map.

LDP-6628

Removed linebrake from json leaf values.

LDP-6160
