Hello everyone, Claris released today FileMaker 2024 in version 21.1.1. Works fine with MBS FileMaker Plugin 14.4. You get a few cool new things. Let me point to these: * The HTTP Tunneling for macOS and Windows will make a few IT departments happy. They can close port 5003 and run everything over 443. * Limits removed for Data-API and OData. No longer clients need to worry about data caps and now you can fully use these APIs to build web front-ends to your FileMaker database. * Concurrent backups should increase performance if you have multiple solutions on a server, that can be backups independently. * The changes to script defaults is small, but if you write a script, you may enjoy them. No longer you accidentally create endless loops as the "Exit after last" option is now set by default. * Use Perform Script on Server in a server script to start a new session and run another script. You may have a small script called via PSoS to start a longer PSoS script and quickly return the information, that it started. Then the second script can do work for a few minutes and later store the result in some field of a job table.

We had to adjust our plugin in several places to fix a few bugs. And of course we keep an eye open on what users report and may adjust more for the next plugin release. If you like to learn more, please check the FMTraining.tv live streams this week featuring Claris staff explaining the details.
