Notes for Release 4.9.6

Over the past months we have been working on improvements to Cellosign platform. In this post you can see a list of what has been changed, updated, and/or what bugs have been fixed

Security

Allowed browsers

We have updated our blacklisted browsers.

Rate limit

This new addition is builtin, none optional and controlled exclusively by Cellosign staff. In end-client views this feature limit a client to post too many requests for access in a given time window. The conditions of lock and release can be modified from time to time to our discretion.

Cellosign views that includes rate limit are:

1. Client forms (new addition shipped with this release)
2. OTP and Challenge with Client session

Javascript limitation

Due to security concerns we are reducing our support to Javascript extension in templates. Please make sure that your templates does not contain javascript code. If it does, find configuration alternatives in Cellosign or seek our support team assistance.

Upload file size limits

Forms already include builtin limitations to upload files. Be advises that with this release we have also applied 5Mb limit when:

1. Posting file(s) through API
2. Configuring template
3. Creating Adhoc session

Heads-up for using iframe

Over the past year browser providers were and still consistently preventing and deprecating usage of iframes. Technology wise the prevention is about blocking cookies and outbound communications from the guest. Eventually, it is widely accepted, that iframe technology will be deprecated all together sooner or later.

Although Cellosign allows to deploy views in iframes, we encourage you to adapt other methods.

Signature verification

We have implemented functionality to validate signatures capture directly with internal services. This might take one or two more seconds when interacting with data collection.

Template changes

Signature field button text

Added option to change default text for signature button

Default values for select field

Added preference to pick default option for select field

Lock template

Until this release a template could be edited and changes are reflected on live sessions. With this new release we are promoting template lock per session for which a session will also hold the template properties at the time a session is initiated, which eventually result that changes in templates will have no impact on forms that have sent to clients. No clients will automatically work like so and by the end of Q1 2025 we shall enforce this change.

Font David Removed

Font David deprecated from Template configuration for the reason that it has issues with mixed char-sets and special characters, such as “@”. Be advised to replace template to other font face in case you are using it.

Autodate field

Added formats to auto date and now include breakdowns for day, month and year.

Zip and password

Depreciation notice. Zipping files in archive email has been depreciated.

Download PDF for print

We have added a new feature for client toolbar to create and download a PDF out of the data that is incorporated in a form without submitting the form.

Changes in connector integrations

Added functionality to modify integrations inline when moving template from one environment to another.

Read only

Added a read only configuration for session that disable the ability to submit a form.

Integrations

Group data

Added “group_data” array to archive api for future use.
