Recent Changes
Update Rocket.Chat to 7.10.0
This release introduces significant improvements across usability, APIs, and platform integration. App logging now features enhanced filters, accurate exports, and fixes for instance-specific logs. OpenAPI 3.0 coverage expands with new conversions, JSON schema support, and improved error handling. A new
@rocket.chat/desktop-api
package enables tighter integration with the desktop app. Citizen Engagement sees a boost with an Omnichannel microservice, outbound messaging actions, UI endpoints, and default agent queue support. UI/UX refinements include a restored scroll bar on the Permissions dashboard and scoped navigation with a second sidebar, filters, and smoother scrolling. Additional updates include normalized PT-BR translations, removal of outdated React test parameters, and cleaner, more consistent user experiences across the platform.This update delivers a series of critical bug fixes to improve reliability and consistency across the platform. Thread replies with quoted messages now render correctly, and the 'users.update' API no longer overwrites existing custom fields when modifying a single one. App enablement errors tied to missing permissions have been resolved, and team creation behavior now properly aligns with channel creation permissions. Audio playback from S3 is stabilized to work beyond URL expiration without refresh, and SAML authentication now consistently supports username creation across web and mobile. Encryption settings remain intact when switching between room types, while locale mismatches causing load errors have been corrected. Custom statuses now update instantly, custom notification sounds function as expected post-7.6.3, and Livechat reliably uploads PDFs with correct S3 permissions. Additionally, Omnichannel rooms are now properly locked to a single agent, preventing duplicate assignments.
