Version 2

2020-03-26

Breaking Changes

  • Changes in pricing
    Pricing based on productive executions of tasks replaced the token-based pricing model. Productive task executions are called “connections”.  The “Token Report” section was removed from the UI.
    Ref: CLOUD-2145
  • Removed “inputs” resource
    The “messages” and “inputs” resources were merged into a combined resource called “messages”. The new messages resource provides additional functionality to design message forms to request a response from Cloudomation users.
    Ref: CLOUD-1622
