New Features and Fixes for ITpipes Mobile and Web:

New Features and Fixes for Sync & Media Handling:

• Sync Updates
  • Backwards Compatibility for Syncing
    • We’ve added compatibility between ITpipes Mobile 1.2 and Web 1.3, ensuring seamless synchronization across both versions without introducing the old sync logic. This enhances overall sync performance 
• Resolved Media Upload Error
  • Fixed an issue where media uploads would fail with an “Object Reference” error on the first attempt.
    • This fix ensures smoother media uploads without interruption
• Sync Progress Bar Enhancement
  • The sync progress bar will now display consistently and accurately reflect progress during the sync process. The issue where the bar stopped at 50% or didn’t appear has been resolved 
• Updated Sync Logic for More Accurate Tracking
  • Sync logic now uses SyncStatus and SyncRetry instead of SyncDate for better accuracy in tracking sync states, ensuring more reliable data transfer
• Sync Failure Handling & Retry Logic
  • Improved sync tracking and retry logic, including new fields for SyncStatus, SyncMessage, and RetryCount. Failed syncs will now retry automatically, and items with more than 3 failed attempts will no longer be processed 
• Faster Observation Saves
  • Improved the speed of saving or editing observations by optimizing the database calls, reducing save time from minutes to near-instant. This lets you work more efficiently in the system 
• Report Package Visibility in Print Manager
  • Lateral and Manhole Report Packages added in the Template Editor are now visible and selectable in the Print Manager, allowing you to include them in reports as expected.
• Optimized S3 File Upload Process
  • The S3 file upload process has been optimized by implementing conditional writes, ensuring faster and more efficient media uploads
• Snapshot Display Issue Resolved
  • Fixed an issue where snapshots were not showing up in reports when using locally hosted media. Now, snapshots will be visible as expected in reports
• CityWorks Integration Error Handling
  • Added validation for the CityWorks integration, ensuring that a proper error message is shown if a URL or username is not entered during connection setup
