Release date: September 18, 2024
Version 1.13.2 of Private Mendix Platform is a patch release which adds support for using custom self-signed root-CA certificates to encrypt the connection between the Private Cloud License Manager and the Mendix Operator.
Improvements

This release also provides numerous other improvements to the Mendix Operator, such as setting the log levels in the Operator deployment, enabling customers to tailor log visibility, resolving an application scaling issue when PCLM was configured without licenses, and generating the log format in JSON. For more information, refer to the Operator release notes.

Known Issues
Issue with Removing User with Bitbucket as Host
With Bitbucket as version control host, there are issues with removing a user from the repository when the user leaves an app project.
Cause
The integration with Bitbucket which fails to remove the corresponding Bitbucket user from the repository when the user leaves the Mendix app project.
Solution
The user must be removed from the app project by the company admin.
Validation Error during User Group Creation
Unexpected validation error occurs when a new user group is created for which the assigned group admin is also a member of another group.
Cause
This issue is caused by a bug in the group management logic.
Solution
The company admin must perform the following steps:
- Create a new group.
- Save immediately.
- Assign the group admin on the Group Detail page.
409 Error when App Ownership Is Transferred by Users
A 409 error appears when an app project is transferred to another owner, and the previous owner leaves.
Cause
This issue is caused by a bug in the app ownership logic.
Solution
After transferring ownership, the previous owner must not leave. Instead, they must be removed by the new owner.
Conflicting Data Issue when App Ownership Is Transferred by Admin
A conflicting data issue appears when company admins attempt to transfer the app project ownership from one user to another. While the ownership status is updated, the project roles for the respective users remain the same as before the transfer.
Cause
This issue is caused by a bug in the ownership transfer logic.
Solution
After transferring the app project between users, the company admin must set their respective project roles manually.
Issue with Renaming App Projects
A repository URL error occurs when an app project is renamed.
Cause
A bug in the app renaming logic causes the repository URL to be set to empty after the app name is updated. Because of that, users may not be able to use the app correctly with Studio Pro.
Solution
This bug will be fixed in a future release. We recommend that you do not rename your app projects until this issue is resolved.
1.13.0
Release date: August 30, 2024
Version 1.13.0 of Private Mendix Platform introduces a number of bug fixes and improvements.
Improvements
Build and Deploy Enhancements
The Build and Deploy process can now be triggered by using an API call.
Dynamic role management is available for Build and Deploy on Kubernetes. Role management is now granular - instead of one permission list for all purposes, each member now has separate roles for each DTAP purpose, and can be granted different roles or permissions for each different purpose.
Webhook Enhancements
You can now customize the payload for webhooks. You can input both static text and variables.
Engineering Improvements
- Azure Blob is supported for Kubernetes build output.
- Logs are now generated when the Deployment pipeline is triggered.
Studio Pro Updates
- Studio Pro 9.24 LTS latest patch version updated to 9.24.26
- Studio Pro 10.6 MTS latest patch version updated to 10.6.12
Fixes
We have provided the following fixes:
- (Platform) We have added email validation for the New User form.
- (Platform) We have fixed some issues related to the Build pipeline.
- (Platform) We have resolved a merge error that occurred for CI/CD pipelines with a decision tree.
- (Platform) For governance reasons, we have restricted the ability to edit user names, so that the option is no longer available to non-admin users.
- (UI) We have fixed some UI-related issues.
Known Issues
Cluster Manager Members Removed After Upgrade
After upgrading Private Mendix Platform to ver. 1.13, any members previously defined in the Cluster Manager settings are removed.
Cause
Because of the implementation of dynamic role management, previously created members are incompatible with the new options and must be recreated. In previous releases of Private Mendix Platform, there was only one global role for all DTAP purposes, so all members were created with one permission list for all purposes. Starting in ver. 1.13, there are three role options (Cluster Member, Cluster Admin and Custom) for each of the four deployment purposes (DTAP), which correspond to the specified purpose of the deployment environment. Because of that, member roles could not be mapped or inherited between the releases.
Solution
After the upgrade, manually add the members that were removed from each namespace in the Cluster Manager settings.
