Release notes
New available values
Bonita UI Builder integration into Bonita Studio
During development, the Bonita Studio now allows you to launch Bonita UI Builder very easily (for production, the Studio is not used). See Development instance from Studio for more information.
New functionalities and improvements are on dedicated UIB release notes.
New Ollama AI Connector
A new AI connector for Ollama is now available, enabling you to run AI models locally without requiring cloud-based API keys or internet connectivity. This connector extends the existing AI connector capabilities (Ask, Extract, and Classify) to work with locally-hosted Ollama models.
Key features:
-
Local deployment: Run AI models on your own infrastructure using Ollama
-
Privacy-first: Keep sensitive data within your organization without sending it to external AI providers
-
No API key required: Works out-of-the-box with your local Ollama instance
-
Cost-effective: Eliminate per-request API costs for development and production environments
-
Offline capability: Process automation continues even without internet access
-
Same functionality: Supports all three use cases (Ask, Extract, Classify) with the same interface as cloud providers
Default configuration:
-
Base URL:
http://localhost:11434 -
Default model:
llama3.1 -
Supports all Ollama-compatible models including Llama, Mistral, CodeLlama, and more
This connector is ideal for organizations with strict data governance requirements, development/testing environments, or scenarios where internet connectivity is limited. See AI Connectors documentation for complete configuration details.
REST Connector OAuth2 Authentication Support
The REST connectors now provide built-in OAuth2 authentication support.
-
OAuth2 Client Credentials Flow: For machine-to-machine authentication (RFC 6749)
-
OAuth2 Authorization Code Flow: For user-specific authentication with optional PKCE support (RFC 7636)
-
OAuth2 Bearer Token: For using pre-obtained access tokens
-
OAuth2 Token Retrieval Connector: A dedicated connector to obtain OAuth2 access tokens that can be reused across multiple API calls
The OAuth2 Token Retrieval connector allows you to obtain an access token once and reuse it for subsequent REST API calls using the Bearer authentication mode.
See REST Connectors documentation for more information.
Email Connector OAuth2 Authentication Support
The Email connector now supports OAuth2 authentication using the XOAUTH2 mechanism, enabling secure email sending through modern email providers such as Gmail and Office 365/Exchange Online that require OAuth2 authentication.
This feature allows the Email connector to authenticate using a pre-obtained OAuth2 access token (for example using the new OAuth2 Token Retrieval connector) instead of traditional username/password authentication, providing better security and compliance with modern authentication requirements.
See Email Connector documentation for more information.
