# Autoform DM 9.1 Release Notes

**DM Release Version 9.1**

**Release date:** 27th July 2020

### Notable Changes

These changes should be considered before upgrading:

- When Upgrading from 9.0 to 9.1 using the silent installer, the installer properties file must now contain the USR_NODE_NAME attribute.
- Search query keys that have default values and are also read-only can no longer be overridden via the REST API (results in a 400 Bad Request).

### Security Improvements

The following security enhancements have now been implemented:

- We have updated document access control, allowing full enforcement of search access configuration on all document operations.
- We have added Group management audit events.
- Note definition management audit events have been added.
- ‘Deleted’ (hidden) users can no longer activate evaluation mode.
- We have updated lodash library from 4.13.11 to 4.17.15.

### Usability Improvements

The following usability enhancements have now been implemented:

- We have standardised and improved database update logging to make debugging easier.
- The standalone installer now supports the specification of a node name and port offset values, allowing multiple standalone installs on a single machine.

### Fixes

The following list contains details of fixes we have implemented since the last release:

- The applications' dropdown wording is now more consistent.
- The search query keys with default values have been fixed for both the frontend and the APIs where:
  - the key is not read-only, the values can be overridden.
  - the key is read-only, the values cannot be overridden.
- The reset button on the Role Manager screen now clears the state correctly.
- We have resolved a visual glitch where icons were misaligned from the text.
- Reduced duplication of document access audit events when using the frontend.
- Resolved an issue preventing SQL application operations from auditing correctly.
- Configuration management can now associate links between groups and users.
- Updating user application access now triggers the correct audit event to be logged.
- We reverted a 9.0 database update that attempted to shorten name fields to 50; we saw examples of customer usages where document definition names exceeded this, so the name width once again stands at 255.
