7 What's new in Áú»¢¶Ä²© 5.0.2

More file types by vfs.file.exists[]

The vfs.file.exists[] agent item previously supported only regular files and links. Support for more file types has been added including directories, sockets, block devices, character devices, etc.

Several file types to include can be specified in the second parameter as a quoted, comma-separated list, while file types to exclude similarly can be specified in the third parameter:

vfs.file.exists[file,<types_incl,<types_excl>]

For more details, see vfs.file.exists[] in agent items.

Logging of global script executions

Information about global script executions is now logged into an Audit log with the following details:

• Timestamp
• User that started a script
• IP of the target host or Áú»¢¶Ä²© server/proxy
• Script after macros substitution (secret macros will be shown as )
• Script results

Additionally, there is now an opportunity to pass user information by inserting user-related macros in a script itself. Supported macros:

• {USER.ALIAS} - Áú»¢¶Ä²© username
• {USER.FULLNAME} - current user's first and last name as specified in Áú»¢¶Ä²© (username)
• {USER.NAME} - current user's first name as specified in Áú»¢¶Ä²©
• {USER.SURNAME} - current user's last name as specified in Áú»¢¶Ä²©

If a script is executed automatically under an action operation, these macros will not be resolved.

Webhooks

The now supports custom fields and custom buttons in message cards.

Regular expression support in user macro context

In addition to static strings, regular expressions are now also supported in user macro context, using the following syntax:

{$MACRO:regex:"regular expression"}

Using regular expressions may significantly reduce the number of user macro contexts you need to define.

See user macros with context for more information.

Enhanced URL widget security

The URL dashboard widget and the URL screen element now put retrieved URL content into the sandbox. By default, all sandbox restrictions are enabled.
