New Features and Enhancements

• Renamed Google connectors: DryvIQ renamed its three Google connectors to better align with its connection methodology.

  • Google Drive is now Google Drive - My Drive.

  • Google Shared Drives is now Google Drive - Shared Drives.

  • Google Workspace is now Google Workspace (Service Account).

• Google Connector XLSM Update: Downloading and reuploading Microsoft Excel files or creating them with non-Microsoft applications causes Google to report XLSM files as Microsoft Excel files. DryvIQ previously appended the proper Microsoft Excel extension (XLSX) to the file based on Google’s reporting, so the DryvIQ Google connectors have been updated to no longer add an extension when Google reports an incorrect MIME type for an XLSM file.

• Amazon Chunk Size Configuration: A new configuration option for Amazon allows you to specify the upload chunk size to ensure large files can be uploaded without going over Amazon’s chunk upload limit. Learn more here.

• Inspection Policy Updates: The “all” inspection policy has been updated to flag failed filter content as “ignored” rather than “failed” to ensure accurate reporting of failed items.

• Job Search Bar Availability: The job Search bar is now available on the Jobs and Simulations pages, even when no jobs have been created, to provide a consistent user interface experience.

• New Job Status: Jobs that are pending cancellation will have a “Canceling” status until the process is complete.

• New Job Status Warning: DryvIQ will now display a warning when a job is running but hasn't reported a status in over an hour. This will help you identify jobs that may be stuck.

Fixes

• Fixed an access_denied_insufficient_permissions error in the Box connector when applying a collaborator that already existed.

• Fixed an issue that prevented retry items from being included in the job Overview statistics after a hard reset or complete reset was performed on the job.

• Fixed an issue that caused jobs using “uri” in the target path to not include the full URL in remediated links that point to a separate SharePoint site.

• Fixed an issue with the Microsoft Office 365 connector to preserve the original created by and modified by information during rename operations when the job uses author preservation.

New Features and Enhancements

• Microsoft SharePoint Online tenant connection improvements: DryvIQ now supports using forward slashes (/) when defining the target path for a SharePoint site when creating a job, so you no longer need to use the “%252F” in place of the forward slashes.

• Additional link remediation types for Box: DryvIQ remediates shared file links, shared folder links, and direct download links for Box.

• Content scans support for Unix User and Group accounts: When using the My Computer connection for a content scan, DryvIQ will populate the Owner, User, and Group fields with the corresponding Unix permissions on an NFS share. Note that the SKYSYNC_ENABLE_LOCAL_FILE_SYSTEM environment variable must be set to true to enable the My Computer connection, which is required to connect to Unix in a Linux environment. DryvIQ will update the fields as follows:

  • The Created by/Owner property will get updated with the Owner Unix permission field.

  • The Group Unix permission field will get added to “Group Accounts.”

  • The Others Unix permission field will get added to “Group Accounts.”

Fixes

• Fixed the refine pills for age operators to prevent the display from flipping the greater than and less than symbols (< and >).

• Fixed an issue preventing a content scan policy from being deleted if no scan locations are referencing it.

• Fixed an issue that caused jobs with a qualified path name exceeding 1000 characters not to run.

• Fixed an issue with logging the body of an API request when the Dropbox API returns a “Conflict” error when a user cannot be resolved.

• Fixed calls to the Box API to ensure DryvIQ reads the “Retry-After” header and waits the specified number of seconds between requests when being rate-limited by Box.

• Fixed an issue causing a Microsoft Office 365 connection to become disabled when multiple jobs are queued to run against it.

New Features and Enhancements

• New Flagged Status in File Properties: DryvIQ now tracks and identifies flagged files for content scans. If an error or exception occurs during a content scan, DryvIQ will retain any information it was able to collect before the error and write it to the catalog. DryvIQ will then set the Flagged property. A new Flagged column is available in the File Properties category of the Content grid so you can identify any flagged files. It shows a green check mark for flagged files and a dash for non-flagged files. (If you don’t see this column, click the Edit columns button and verify that “Flagged” under Filter Properties is set as visible.) You can refine the Content list based on this property, and you can use this property in advanced filtering.

  Note the following behavior based on the scan type and scan configurations:

  • For File Inventory scans, DryvIQ records the flagged files in the PolicyItems table (RequiresRetry), allowing delta scans to retry scanning the files.

  • For document set scans, DryvIQ only updates the catalog, so you will need to reset the scan to reprocess items.

  • For archive file types (ZIP, etc.), DryvIQ will flag the main archive file if any of the subfiles in the archive are flagged. (Note that archive file type scanning is only available in DryvIQ Platform version 6.0 and later.)

• Reset Options Moved to the More Actions Menu: The scan reset functionality has been moved to the More Actions menu (ellipses) to make it easier to reset a scan and to make the functionality available for child scans, too. To reset a scan, click the ellipses at the end of the row and select Reset scan from the menu. The reset functionality was removed from the Edit Categories modal as part of this enhancement.

Fixes

• User and group accounts that can’t be resolved are displayed as “Unresolved” on the User Mapping tab.

• The byte sizes for SharePoint and ShareFile folders will now be reported as 0 Bytes to prevent inflated content scan size values.

• The ShareFile Shared Folders connector was updated to fix an upload issue causing an “Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error.

• DryvIQ will skip adding the “Anyone” shared link type if the site does not support anonymous sharing.

• An update was made to the Microsoft CSOM query used for tenant connections to fix “The object specified does not belong to a list” errors during migrations.

• When transferring from Box to Microsoft, Box "Previewer" permissions will be assigned "Can't Download" in SharePoint. Note that the “use_csom_for_permissions": true configuration is required for these permissions to be applied.

New Features and Enhancements

• Content scans now record permissions for the source root, providing more comprehensive reporting about your user and group permissions.

• The “Owners” group for a SharePoint site/library now persists in migration jobs.

Fixes

• An offset was added to the Accounts page export feature to ensure proper export of the items.

• A fix was made to prevent a cast exception when sending migration job notifications.

• The Box connectors no longer sanitize leading spaces in file and folder names.

• Updates were made to the Autodesk BIM360 connector to use the latest Autodesk authentication.

• An update was made to fix a change in Microsoft .NET 8.0 that caused exports not to work in DryvIQ Platform version 5.9.7.

• A fix was made to ensure link remediation respects the “Preserve Most Recently Modified” conflict policy when set for a migration job. When a file is updated on the destination outside of a migration job, DryvIQ will no longer overwrite it as part of link remediation. DryvIQ will flag the file as ignored instead.

New Features and Enhancements

• Microsoft Outlook Exchange connector updates:

  • The Microsoft Outlook Exchange connector was updated to add delete operations.

  • The number of requests per second for the connector was lowered to prevent throttling.

Fixes

• The following updates were made to fix inconsistencies with scan statuses.

  • Scans that aren’t running will have a status of “Idle” instead of “Completed.”

  • New scans that have not yet run will have a status of “Idle - No scan” to help identify scans that have not yet run. These scans will be returned when filtering the scan list for scans with an “Idle” status after the upgrade to version 5.9.7. Existing scans will not be affected by this fix and may not display when filtering the list for idle scans.

  • Scans that have successfully met their stop policy will have a status of “Completed.” Running a scan with a “Completed” status resets the scan’s stop policy.

• When starting a large number of scans, the total number of scans that were started is displayed rather than the total number of scans.

• DryvIQ Regex entity types using the \b boundary have been updated to utilize a more comprehensive boundary, enhancing identification when using OCR for document scans.

• Impersonation is now working for the Dropbox for Business Team Folders connector.

• When OneNote folders are converted in a migration, the item status will now be “Revised” to reflect that the conversion was completed.

• Updates were made to migration jobs to improve handling of HTTP responses for text/HTML content.

• If an exception triggers a retry, the exception information will now be logged for migration jobs using author preservation with the skip_preserve_owners_on_failure parameter set to TRUE.

• User and Group maps are correctly populated when creating an exception map using the DryvIQ REST API.

New Features and Enhancements

Entity Types

• New Length Exceeds Entity Type: DryvIQ added a new transform entity type you can use to identify paths that exceed a set value. You can only create the entity type through the DryvIQ REST API. Learn more here.

Migrations

• Dropbox Shared Link Remediation: DryvIQ now supports remediating shared links when Dropbox is the source connection. Shared links must be in the supported format, and even then, various scenarios may interfere with DryvIQ’s ability to remediate the shared link. Learn more about remediating Dropbox shared links here.

Fixes

Connections

• The Google connectors were updated to fix an issue that prevented users with commenter access from getting the latest file version.

• Updates were made to the Google connectors to prevent a “The request message was already sent. Cannot send the same request message multiple times” error if DryvIQ encounters rate limits when retrieving versions.

• A fix was made to the Box connector to ensure downloading locked files presents an “item locked” exception rather than an “access denied” exception.

• The Microsoft connectors were updated to change how DryvIQ handles OneNote folders containing non-OneNote files. On the initial transfer to Microsoft 365, DryvIQ will convert valid OneNote folders (as defined by Microsoft) to OneNote files. However, it will not convert OneNote folders that contain non-OneNote files. Instead, DryvIQ leaves these folders as is and transfers them as regular folders.

• File owners are now transferred when migrating from Citrix ShareFile to Microsoft 365.

Migrations

• Items in retry no longer result in a duplicate rename, resulting in additional items appearing in the Items table.

• When processing an “item already exists” response from the migration batch API, DryvIQ no longer performs a size (bytes) comparison to prevent false negatives when determining if DryvIQ needs to transfer an existing item.

Scans

• Updates were made to the Access and Sharing entity type to ensure all item groups display.

• All items are no longer reprocessed on subsequent scans when the File Active User Status entity type is included.

Migrate

• Statistics are rebuilt when a job is cancelled or when items are in a Retry/Flagged status to ensure the job statistics are correct.

• Items with a revision reason of “Owner preservation failed” will properly display a status of “Revised.” This fix applies to items transferred after the 5.9.4 update and will not affect existing items that have "Owner preservation failed" with a status of “Success.”

• Updates were made to prevent unnecessary API calls during change detection.

• The expired client secret for the Microsoft Exchange connector has been updated.

• The Google Shared Drives connector was updated to ensure the item owner field is available.

• Using the Box folder ID rather than the path no longer produces an error when scripting jobs.

Settings

• Categories now populate on the Add Recipient modal in the Notifications setup.

New Features and Enhancements

Discover

• Item scan count added back to scan status: The item scan count has been added back to the information for running scans to help you track the scan progress.

Migrate

• New SharePoint Online configuration option for permissions: For Microsoft SharePoint connections, a new use_csom_for_permissions configuration option was added to specify that you want to use the CSOM API rather than the Graph API for retrieving and setting permissions. This setting is useful if you want to maintain “can’t download” permissions since the Graph API has limitations on what permissions it provides. Learn more here.

• Set inspection policy during job creation: You can now set the Item Inspection Policy when creating a job. A new Change item inspection policy setting has been added to the Behaviors page in the job wizard. With the toggle off, the default inspection policy will be None. Enabling the toggle allows you to set the policy to Filtered, Shared, or All. Learn more here.

Connections

• Dropbox connector improvement for rate limits: Improvements were made to the Dropbox, Dropbox for Business, and Dropbox for Business Team Folders connectors to limit the number of requests for shared links, which should reduce rate limiting.

Fixes

Migrate

• Updates were made to ensure file names are truncated or a sanitization exception is added to the activity based on the job settings if an item name exceeds the destination’s limit on a rename operation.

• The last_failure_message column in the jobs export now populates for all jobs (where applicable).

• Versions now transfer from SharePoint on-premises connections.

Connections

• Reauthenticating a Network File System connection will no longer create a new connection.

New Features and Enhancements

Entity Types

• The default threshold value for the PII Extraction Module was increased from .01 to .6 to decrease the number of false positives. This affects Discover scans and Govern policies that use the PII Extraction entity type. To get the new threshold value, you will need to upgrade your extension policy packs to version 5.9.1. Contact your DryvIQ Consulting Services representative or DryvIQ Customer Support for assistance.

Migrate

• DryvIQ now supports migrating OneNote files. OneNote files migrated from any source connector to a SharePoint connector will retain the OneNote file format.

Insights

• Improved chart messages: Insights charts now display different messages when they are in an empty state to help you understand why the chart is not displaying. This helps you understand the necessary adjustments you need to make to your data source or filter options so that the chart displays as expected. Learn more here.

• Tooltips for stale data date parameters: When working with the dates for the stale data parameters, you can hover on the question mark icon next to the date field to view a definition of the selected date. The help text is dynamic and will change based on the date you select and may help you choose a date if you are unsure which date to select. Learn more here.

Results

• Filters updates: Several filters have been updated to improve usability.

  • Included Entities: This filter now follows the same three-tier hierarchy used by the scan templates: Tier one is the template, tier two is the category, and tier three is the entity types. This structure provides consistency between the scan setup and the filters. In addition, a new Migration Details template will display in this section to display the Item Status entity type for files that have been added to migration plans. Learn more here.

  • Duplicate Data: You can now select multiple Duplicate Data filter options. In addition, “hash” was removed from the help text definitions and replaced with “signature” to clarify how DryvIQ defines each duplicate data category. Learn more here.

• Does not Contain Refine option added: When searching account or group permissions, you now have a Does not contain operator that can be used to filter out domains so you can identify external accounts or groups that have access to files. This refine option is also available for custom insight charts.

• Column Updates: Improvements were made to multiple columns to improve viewing content.

  • Size (Including Versions): In the Metadata section, this column will always display a dash (-) for folders since no size data will be reported in this column for folders. This more clearly indicates a null value due to the item being a folder.

  • URL: The Origin URL column was renamed URL to simplify the name and cause less confusion about the information being displayed.

• Toolbox Updates: The following updates were made to the file toolbox to improve functionality:

  • A Copy link button was added to the toolbox. It is used to copy the file URL to your clipboard so it can be pasted as needed. This button also serves as a workaround for when the Go to location button is blocked by browsers. Learn more here.

  • Directory is now Path to reflect more clearly the information being displayed.

  • An Intelligent Migration section will display at the bottom of the file toolbox for files added to a migration plan. This section displays all the information relevant to the file’s migration. Learn more here.

Scans

• Improved Scan Processing: The Start scan button is now always active and shows the number of scans it will start. When you start scans, a modal displays and remains on screen with the progress of the process. You will not be able to close the modal while the scans are starting since important processes are being performed. Once all requested scans have been started, you will be able to close the modal. Learn more here.

• Next Scan information: The Status column was updated to display the next scan information for every scan. This information helps you easily identify when a scan will run based on its schedule or identify scans that do not have a schedule set and that need to be run manually. Learn more here.

• Improved scan status displays: Updates were made to make the scan status more visible for Queued, In progress, and Failed jobs. This allows you to more easily identify the status of each scan.

• View activity log for failed scans: Failed scans now display a View Activity Log link that can be used to view the activity for the scan. This will help identify what caused the scan to fail so you can take the necessary actions before attempting to start the scan again. Learn more here.

• New Refine Options: Three new refine options have been added to provide additional search capabilities: Has Executions, Scan Date, and Scan Status. Learn more about each option here.

• Enhanced warning messages: Since there is a direct correlation between the number of entity types added to a scan and scan performance, DryvIQ will display warning messages if you select multiple templates for a Discover scan. The messages serve as guidance to help you understand when your selections could impact your scan performance. Learn more here.

Migrate

Jobs

• Link detection setting renamed: The job setting used to enable link detection has been renamed to Allow link detection and remediation on supported files to reflect the full capabilities available when the feature is enabled for the job. Learn more here.

Navigation

• Improved navigation support: DryvIQ added browser support for improved navigation through the Migrate section of the application. This area now supports using the browser’s Back, Forward, and Refresh buttons without losing your place in the application.

New Features and Enhancements

Migrate

• New messaging for paused jobs: A new informational message has been added to the Overview page for scheduled jobs that have been paused to indicate that the job will not run again until manually started due to the paused state. This helps users understand why a job is not running despite having a schedule so users can take the necessary action to resume the job or leave it paused as desired.

Fixes

Discover

• The MIP classifier now works properly with the SMB Network File System and cloud connectors for Discover scans and Govern policies.

• Updates were made to prevent an "Object reference..." error for Discover scans that use the root folder as the data source.

Migrate

• Item tracking was improved to prevent issues when moving a root-level item to a newly created folder.

New Features and Enhancements

Discover

• New user account Discover results: A new Accounts page has been added to Discover so you can instantly view Discover scan results by account to help you identify your largest users by both file count and size. This page provides the same filter, refine, customization, saved views, and export options as the Results page, so you have all the same great functionality available to you while viewing your scan results by account. Learn more here.

• New Discover scan settings: A new Settings step has been added to the Discover Scan Setup. This step allows you to add filters based on path, pattern, file type, and file size and offers settings to specify how much of a file gets scanned. You can even enable optical character recognition (OCR) if you want PDFs and images to be scanned for text. The settings allow you to have full control over what is included and excluded in your Discover scans. Learn more here.

• Enhanced scan editing capabilities: Several editing capabilities have been added to allow to you update scans after you create them. This includes renaming scans and duplicating scans to use as templates, so you don’t have to create new scans from scratch. You can even edit the scan categories once the scan has been created to adjust them as needed. Learn more here.

• PII label change for clarity: When using the PII entity type, the “Entity Type” label was renamed “Organization Name” to accurately reflect the information being displayed.
