DryvIQ Migrate Release Notes

Version: 5.9.3
Release Date: February 6, 2025

 

DryvIQ Migrate version 5.9.3 was available on February 6, 2025. This is a maintenance release that focuses on enhancements and bug fixes. Learn more about the release below. For detailed information about items, refer to the DryvIQ Migrate Documentation Center.

 

When updating DryvIQ from a version older than 5.8, the upgrade will take an extended time due to database updates. Do not cancel the update; let it complete even if it takes excessive time.

New Features and Enhancements

  • Improved Character Sanitation: The Dropbox, Box, and Egnyte connectors were updated to replace emoji characters with underscores in file and folder names for platforms that do not support these characters.

  • New Filter Reason Column Option: The Job Items page now has a Filter Reason column option. When selected, this column displays why the item was ignored in the job. This field will also be included in the Items export. Learn more here.

  • New SSL/TLS Server Setting: The SMTP Server setup now allows you to specify the SSL/TLS support you want to use for the server. Learn more here.

Fixes

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

  • Updates were made to prevent the rare occurrence of duplicate folders on the destination when an IOException is thrown.

  • The Google Drive, Google Workspace, and Google Shared Drive Connectors were updated to ensure files without extensions get extensions added based on their MIME type.

  • Updates were made to prevent API calls from failing if they did not include a sort parameter.

  • The Network File System connector was updated to display a more useful message when failing to resolve a user in a Windows environment. This scenario will produce the following message: "Security Identifier could not be resolved: <windows exception message>."

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

  • Updates were made to fix an issue that prevented file transfer to Dropbox personal accounts.

 

Updating the DryvIQ Platform does not update the Command-line Interface (CLI). If you use the CLI, you should update it when you update to a new version of DryvIQ to ensure the CLI is current. Run the CLI install command to update the CLI.  


Previous Release Notes

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • 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 a 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.

Fixes

  • Updates were made to ensure file names are truncated or a sanitization exception is added to the job 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).

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

  • Versions now transfer from SharePoint on-premises connections.

  • The Link Detection feature was updated to handle “null exception” and “set attribute” errors during link remediation.

  • DryvIQ will no longer transfer items if they have been added to or moved to a subfolder excluded by job filters.

  • A fix was made to ensure items in retry are properly flagged with a “retry” status and not marked as “completed.”

  • Updates were made to fix list items in Box Notes not converting during migration.

 

New Features and Enhancements

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

Fixes

  • Filtering a user map by “External” now properly filters the results.

  • Items will not transfer twice when the parent folder is in a “Retry” status.

  • Microsoft SharePoint Online connectors will sanitize colons in root path names properly based on the unsupported character setting for the job.

  • SharePoint Libraries will not be identified as Sites for tenant SharePoint Online connections when crawling is enabled for the connector.

  • The DryvIQ Box connector will properly assign Owner to access rules during change detection.

  • The DryvIQ Migration API was updated to ensure permissions are properly propagated when inheritance is broken.

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • 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.

  • Docusign template sharing handling: The DryvIQ Docusign connector was updated to manage shared templates. Templates will be shared to the Administrators group when migrating. Learn more here.

Fixes

  • Updates were made to link remediation aggregates to ensure negative values are not being calculated.

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • New messaging for pause 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

  • Batch support was added to the Dropbox for Business connector when author preservation is enabled to reduce the number of “too_many_write_operations” messages encountered.

  • The Dropbox for Business connector was updated to prevent the impersonation list from timing out when searching for a user.

  • The Microsoft OneDrive for Business and Microsoft Office 365 connectors were updated to correct an issue where files with more than 200 versions were listing the versions out of order.

  • Link remediation was updated to properly escape forward slashes when remediating links on Microsoft Office 365 tenants.

  • The Network File System SMB connector was updated to fix an issue that prevented the connector from seeing users or groups during a permissions migration.

  • Updates were made to ensure distinct SIDs are assigned to disabled users across multiple jobs.

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

 

New Features and Enhancements

  • New Docusign Connector: DryvIQ now offers a read-only Docusign connector that can be used to migrate files and templates out of your Docusign account and into your preferred content storage platform. Learn more here.

  • New managed Network File System connector: DryvIQ now offers two Network File System connections in Windows environments. The original Network File System connector uses NFS protocol to access files. The new managed Network File System connector is a read-only connector that uses SMBLibrary to make the connection, which may allow for better performance than the native connector in some instances. The new managed connector can be used as a source connection for Migrate jobs but cannot be used as the destination connection.

  • Improved filter logic: DryvIQ now applies the job filters to all items that have changed on subsequent job runs to improve transfer results. This means that an item that did not transfer on a previous job run will transfer on a subsequent run if a change causes the item to now meet an include filter criteria. Similarly, an item that originally transferred will be skipped if the update causes the item to now meet an exclude filter criteria.

  • Improved link remediation performance: Updates were made to improve the link remediation queries. This will result in overall faster performance of the link remediation feature.

Fixes

  • Owner preservation for disabled users on root folder creation for Microsoft Office 365 will now be preserved if the information needed to resolve the user is available through either the EnsureUser CSOM API call or the _api/web/siteusers REST API call from Microsoft.

  • External email invitations are now properly sent for Microsoft Office 365 connections.

  • SharePoint On-premises connections can now be created in Linux environments.

  • A fix was made to prevent the “Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error could occur during link remediation.
