December 2020 release notes

Release: 5.0.8.587

The following is a complete list of the bug fixes and enhancements provided in the December 2020 Release. Some of the bug fixes listed below may address existing Support Articles, of which are noted inline with the associated bug fix and in a comprehensive list at the bottom of this page.

Note: The 5.0.8 release is now available for developers to pull down and work with locally or to request for deployments.

Product BA Sarah Norris covers the highlights of the December 2020 Release for Spire.

The B2B Commerce private Nuget feed is moving from MyGet to the Episerver public server. You will need to point your Nuget host to https://nuget.episerver.com/feed/packages.svc after the December release is out.

The following are the high or medium priority breaking changes that occurred during this release:

We are implementing a new authentication/licensing system for machine to machine authentication between ISC and PIM. When upgrading to 5.0.8, any PIM customers MUST have an updated connection with new credentials or integration to PIM will be broken until this happens. Episerver will be coordinating with customers/partners for this change and it only affects PIM customers.
Please note that we are adding the Microsoft.Graph nuget package to the allowed packages.
Added method to non-extensible ITranslationLocalizer.

Partners/Developers: You can view a cumulative list of breaking changes, including Spire breaking changes, in this spreadsheet. (Note the two tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet: one for cumulative breaking changes, one for Spire breaking changes.)

There were no database changes for this release.
