You can now use custom constraints with Organization Policy to provide more granular control over specific fields for some Application Integration resources. For more information, see Manage Application Integration resources using custom constraints. This feature is now available in Preview.

Salesforce connected app requires installation for OAuth 2.0 authentication

A new security requirement from Salesforce restricts the use of uninstalled connected apps. To ensure your Salesforce triggers remain functional, you must install the connected app in your Salesforce account.

When establishing a new Salesforce trigger using OAuth 2.0 authentication, you are now required to install the connected app within your Salesforce account. This step is also necessary for existing triggers using OAuth 2.0 authentication if the connected app is not already installed, as failure to do so may cause them to stop working.

For more information, see Install the OAuth 2.0 connected app.

Standard canvas view

The integration editor now features a single, standard canvas view. The legacy canvas is no longer available.

Cloud Function Task adds support for Cloud Functions v2 API

The Cloud Function task in Application Integration now lets you create, link, and run the latest generation of serverless functions, called Cloud Run functions, using the Cloud Functions v2 API.

For more information, see Cloud Function Task.

Control HTTP call access by region in Application Integration

Application Integration now offers a new control within the Regions page to enable or disable HTTP calls for integrations on a per-region basis.

For more information, see Manage regions.

New Canvas View is enabled by default in the Integration Editor

The new Canvas View is now enabled by default in the integration editor. This change is a default setting and no manual enablement is required. You can switch to the old canvas view by disabling the New canvas view toggle.

Enhancements to Replay Execution

Application Integration Replay Execution now provides the following enhancements:

• Modify input parameters on replay: You can now modify the input parameters of an integration execution when initiating a replay. This provides greater flexibility in fixing failed executions.
• Continue execution from point of failure: When replaying an integration, you can now choose to continue the execution from the point of the last failure. This will retry the failed task and, upon success, continue the execution from that point, saving time and effort.

For more information, see Introduction to replay executions.

Enhancements to Execution Logs

Application Integration Execution Logs now provides the following enhancements:

• View detailed task execution information: The dedicated Task Execution pane displays comprehensive execution details, including start and end times, status, type, and variable payload information , enabling improved debugging.
• Download execution logs in JSON format: You can now download integration execution logs as structured JSON files, facilitating easier log analysis.
• View sub-integration execution logs: The Execution Logs page now displays all sub-integration execution logs within the same stack trace as the main integration, simplifying troubleshooting of complex integration flows.

For more information, see View execution logs.

Deprecation of Rhino engine for JavaScript Task

Effective January 24, 2025, Application Integration will no longer support Rhino as the JavaScript execution engine. All existing published JavaScript tasks will continue to use Rhino and can be migrated to V8 manually. Newly created JavaScript tasks will exclusively use V8.

For more information, see JavaScript execution engine. This deprecation is related with CVE-2025-0982.

You will not be able to use the Send email task in your integrations if you have enabled VPC service perimeter for the Application Integration service.
