Note on individualization: Our release notes describe the standard product. If your 4ALLPORTAL is strongly customized or if you installed individual apps, we recommend contacting our support before upgrading.

Breaking Changes

• Version 4.0 is now only compatible with servers that have 4App 4allportal-desktop-app installed, or that have installed an older version than 4.0.

{
  "environment": {
    "desktopFiles": [

    ]
  }
}

Former configuration on root level is not supported anymore.
