Technical Changes & Admin Instructions

Support for File Type "InDesign"

We have added support for the indesign file type across all relevant system configurations. This includes the capability to generate previews directly from prev_base files.

New Field to Trigger Preview Generation

The file_hash field will no longer be reset to trigger the preview generation. For that, the ois_prev_type field will be set to default now.

Direct Upload via Specific ID

We now allow file uploads via the Direct Upload API using a specific ID.

Solved Bugs

• Fix the creation of the downloadable ZIP package
• Fix issues with failed archive uploads caused by zero KB files. Zero-size files in archives will now be ignored.

Patch releases
