    Remove the global lock for backups.

    Finally, the global lock is gone. Practically, what this means is: Backups and Updates do not block app configuration anymore.

        @girish said in What's coming in 8.2:

        App archival?

        This is implemented now. In the Uninstall section, there is an option to archive.

        265b73f3-af33-46c4-9e4d-3c8fef9e8e43-image.png

        In the Backups view, there is a listing of archives. You can unarchive them from there.

        5e07b43a-cf67-47c8-8cc0-eff1dd8eba5a-image.png

        Archiving means:

        • App gets uninstalled freeing up space on server
        • App won't be in the main dashboard
        • The latest backup of the app is kept "forever". Not affected by backup cleaning policies.
        • Can be unarchived. If you delete the archive entry itself, the associated backup will eventually go away based on cleanup policy.

            The notification stuff has been refactored now. For a start, each user (only admins) can decide what they want to get notified about by email. If you want notification about specific things, happy to add more but we just added the basics right now.

              Making more change to backup stuff relies on getting the global lock changes out and well tested before we make more changes here. We will get 8.2 out in the coming week(s). Apart from backups, I think we implemented all the features listed initially. Will also help us get out Formbricks, Wallos and some other apps which rely on 8.2 features.

                @girish About "app is down", I'm interested in a way to tune "restart automatically" for app being down. It's not the first time I notice an app is down or not responding because it crashed during the night and in the morning I have to manually restart it.
                it happened for instance that my wordpress blog was stopped due to high traffic because of being on the frontpage of hacker news... and so was down for several hours... what a pity πŸ˜›

                  @SansGuidon I think we can add an automatic restart (one time when health check fails) next release. I guess we can make this hardcoded/automatic in the platform itself.

                            Very small quality of life request for 8.2:
                            Please ensure these tool tip / help / further reading links open in a new tab or window rather than linking directly to the resource which causes the user to lose any data they've entered into the form/process.

                                  iOS / iPadOS? macOS? There are settings to control the "new tab" behavior in both.

                                      I know it's not Christmas yet, but can I open my gift (8.2)? 😊

                                      Will install the update tonight. Thank you for your hard work @staff!

                                        Is this latest version already released?

                                          @firmansi Yes, I got the update notification for 8.20. Search for it manually if it doesn't show up by itself. I think it's considered "beta" so keep that in mind.
