Since ConfiForms app version 2.x we will publish release notes here
Version 2.1.0 - in development
- (Smart) multi row field - new field type to help with "inline" creation of master-details structures
- "ConfiQuery" field type to help you to link other form's data and associate it with a particular field/row in your current form
Version 2.0.9
- Improvements in data migration for forms using auto-number fields and have missing rows (deleted rows)
- Fixed issue with User fields not showing profile pictures
- Fixed issue with conditionally shown Edit Controls in TableViews
- Better reporting of license incompatibility when used on environments not matching the license type
- Compatibility with upcoming Confluence 6.13
- Fixed issue with TableViewMerger macro form/file naming for exports
Version 2.0.8
- TableViewMerger macro dynamic sources discovery now supports forms defined in blogposts
- ConfiForms views placed on external pages/blogposts now support forms defined in blogposts
- Fixed issue with user's data caching on Confluence version 5.7.x
- Fixed configuration issue with ConfiForms Field Definition Rule when rule to "Look up and set the value from WebService" has been used
- Optimized filters by page and user fields, when simple expressions are give (to match agains page id or username)
- New virtual function "randomInt(minVal)" - Virtual functions
Version 2.0.7
- Fixed regression issue with [empty] filters applied on user fields
- Fixed issue with rules applied on the same fields, when ConfiForms started to calculate the sums (when numbers only were given as values), instead of applying values separately
- Support for CSS and message to show when results are empty for TableViewMerger macro
- Edit controls and viewer controls rendering optimizations when no dynamic parameters were given
- Optimizations in how user fields are fetched
- Fixed backward compatibility issue with Confluence 5.5
Version 2.0.6
Version 2.0.5
- Re-packaged for data center compatibility (metadata). Version is waiting an approval from Atlassian (https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/DCHELP-387). ConfiForms is already fully compatible with Confluence Data Center, but is awaiting official approval from Atlassian.
Version 2.0.4
Recovery API now physically deletes existing records and replaces the dataset contents with what's given. You can also clean up the form completely by uploading empty dataset in a format
- Fixed issue with show/hide container on forms in dialog mode (and when ID is used as CSS selector)
- Field Definition Rules macro, when used with "Lookup and set value" action tries to "aggregate" the values it receives, and if all are numbers then sums it up. Use of formulas (expressions) in values to set parameters is supported
Enhanced service to check forms storage integrity (reporting non-compliant fieldnames)
[YOUR_CONFLUENCE_SERVER_URL]/ajax/confiforms/rest/storage-integrity.action?formName=<FORM_NAME>&pageId=<PAGE_ID>
- Fixed issue with Currency field type not validating it's type by default and accepting non numeric values
- Fields of a text type and similar are now rendered as lookups when used in ConfiForms Filter macro
- Smart fields now support referencing field values (in addition to referencing records)
Introducing "_func" bridge function to enable access to virtual functions through the entry (without using any field). This is sometimes necessary when you want to create complex dynamic filters such as:
field1:[entry._func.asEntryRef(entry.field2.transform(id).join( OR field1:))]
This filter, for example, tells to find records where "field1" values match values from "field2". And both fields are multi-value fields
- timezoneAwareDate and timezoneAwareDateTime virtual functions to format date/datetime as timezone aware dates
- Cleaner output of emails when rendered and sent though IFTTT macros
- Attachments picker field enhancement to support showing of all attachments versions
- Fixed issue with creating pages using ConfiForms when a 3rd party app called "InPlace editor" is installed
Added support for "Apply filter" field definition rule to work on attachments picker
Assuming the field name for "Attachment picker" is "mypicker" and is set to show attachments from children pages, but you want to show only current page attachments (when you put FormView on a child page)
mypicker.asAttachment.content.id:[entry._page.id]
- Fixed regression issue with excessively strict field name validation
Version 2.0.3
- Quick fix to address too strong check for field names in ConfiForms field names. Non-latin characters in ConfiForms field names are still supported but strongly NOT RECOMMENDED
Version 2.0.2
- Optimisations in data serialization and deserialization, resulted in reducing the data storage format size up to 30% (depends on the data you store)
- Data loading speed improved up to 15% compared to previous version (depends on the dataset / form configuration)
- Field definition rules are processed 30% faster, especially on the configurations with many rules (30+)
- Fixed issue with the uploading of multiple attachments of the same file
- Entry metadata is back as a tooltip in CardView/TableView row
- Fixed issue with IFTTT to send emails containing files having a comma in their names
- Fixed issue with service URL mapping in web services backed fields when current context variable values, such as [entry._user] and [entry._now] were not correctly applied on the parameter
- New field definition rules to hide (or show) any arbitrary element on the page by CSS selector based on the condition ("Show/Hide container" action type)
- Fixed helper tools with providing mapping of database and web-service backed fields
- Fixed issue with form printing when comments added with a Comment field with "inline comments" enabled were not printed
- Fixed issue with auto-link generation when a reference to uploaded file is used in the pattern
- Changed JSON export format for multi-value fields to contain "JSON" value string for the values, instead of "XML"
- Improved and secured content search indexing for forms - now you need to enable form export to enable the contents of a form to be searchable. Also, setting the form to "show only own records" to non-admin users disables indexing the contents of a form
Version 2.0.1
- ConfiForms now has a new storage layer, with much faster edit and delete operations. And with faster and less memory consuming search / filtering operations.
There are no limits on the dataset size per form. And the size of the record is limited by the number of characters your database can hold in a CLOB type field (ConfiForms limits are 2,147,483,647 bytes) Data migration is done for your automatically when you access the form for the first time. This could take some time for the first load, depending your your dataset size
There are methods to help you to understand how you data looks like and force the migration via migration APIs if you want to do so (accessible only to Confluence system administrators)

We advise you to take extra care with upgrading to version 2.x+ from 1.x branch and test your form configurations in your test environments first, before upgrading your live environments.
Your tables, rendered with CardView and TableView macros, will look different and use the cleaner styles as provided by AUI - https://docs.atlassian.com/aui/7.8.0/docs/tables.html
Your forms look cleaner as well, and also follow the guidelines and styles from AUI
- ConfiForms is DC ready (approval is in progress)
- Optimizations in rendering: reducing HTML markup size → faster rendering
- All the features and changes included in 1.54.x releases, up to the latest 1.54.6, https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211860/confiforms-data-forms-workflows/version-history#b105004060
- Data is stored in the database table "AO_CEFA84_CONFI_FORMS_ENTITY", using record per row method.
- Rows are not physically deleted from the database when you delete a ConfiForms entry, but marked as deleted. Record contents is removed, but the ID and removal date for the entry are stayed. This allows us to "fix" the logic with auto-number re-use when last ConfiForms entry has been deleted (in ConfiForms version 1.x the last number will be reused, which is not the case anymore with ConfiForms version 2.x)
- Backup and restore DOES NOT back up the values from ConfiForms storage. Use RAW export and recovery APIs to get the data imported
