Qrvey 8.4

Release Date: 2024-02-05

Note: If you wish to upgrade to this version, please contact the CX team if you have a Managed Infrastructure contract. Otherwise, please see the Upgrade Notes document for important notes and access to the upgrade link.

Architectural Improvements​

Version 8.4 implements major architectural improvements that provide multiple benefits to users. Installation and upgrade times are significantly faster (reduced to around 1 hour). This improvement applies to both new instances and subsequent upgrades from version 8.4.

Note that, if you are upgrading from an older version, an automatic script updates your datasets to be compatible with this new architecture. As a result, your installation time may be extended, depending on the number of datasets.

In addition, due to the architectural improvements, this version updates many endpoints. While we continue to support the existing endpoints as documented on our API documentation site, we encourage you to update those at your convenience to leverage the new enhancements. The legacy endpoints are listed on a deprecation schedule that you can find on our End-of-life Schedule page.

General Tweaks & Bug Fixes​

  • Subscriptions provided to incorrect recipient (bug fix): Fixes a rare issue in which the ZIP files of separate export requests that ran at the exact same time were given the same file name, causing the files to be overwritten and some recipients potentially receiving the wrong file.
