We’re excited to announce the release of Adaptive Integration Fabric v7.2.1, a follow-up to the foundational changes introduced in v7.2.0. This version builds on our commitment to flexibility, visibility, and faster service delivery with a focus on enhancing ACS capabilities and simplifying API development workflows.
One of the most significant updates in this release is the availability of both Public and Private Authoritative Count Server (ACS) configurations for Fabric users running Java environments. These options provide greater control over how you manage activity, usage insights, and infrastructure preferences.
ACS Infrastructure: Public and Private Options
In v7.2.0, we introduced the groundwork for our ACS infrastructure. With v7.2.1, Fabric now supports a public-facing ACS hosted by Adaptigent. This gives clients the ability to connect to a managed ACS server for easier setup and optional usage alerts—ideal for teams who want visibility without local configuration.
Watch the Public ACS Demo to see how to connect and use the Adaptigent-hosted instance.
For clients who prefer more control, Fabric also supports Private ACS, allowing you to deploy the count server within your own environment. This configuration ensures all ACS operations remain within your infrastructure while still enabling visibility and access controls.
Watch the Private ACS Demo for a walkthrough of local setup and system integration.
Whether you want the simplicity of a managed connection or the control of hosting it yourself, Fabric 7.2.1 gives you both paths without added complexity.
Additional Key Enhancements in v7.2.1
In addition to ACS support, this release introduces several functional improvements designed to streamline API orchestration and improve compatibility with external services:
- OpenAPI Enhancements: Fabric Studio now maps operation ID fields more accurately during import, improving both build-time validation and exported OpenAPI documents.
- Extended Query Parameter Support: New data types (decimal, short, long, date, dateTime) and validation options offer more flexibility in REST service configurations.
- Optional Input Setting: A new runtime option lets teams configure all REST inputs as optional, helping reduce friction during service execution.
- UTF-8 Conversion Control: A new server parameter, badCharConversionSubstitute, provides better handling of invalid characters when interacting with core system host encodings.
- API Transformer Authentication: Studio now uses API keys to authorize conversions with APIMatic, resolving previous access issues.
These features collectively reduce development time, simplify external integration, and improve control over service behavior in production.
Functionality Updates
This release introduces several quality-of-life enhancements that improve development workflows and runtime accuracy across REST services and OpenAPI integration.
An update has been implemented for REST responses that previously misrepresented zero-element arrays, ensuring that responses more accurately reflect the intended structure. Studio test cases now handle boolean value initialization correctly, eliminating false negatives during validation. Character encoding has also been improved in REST test tool headers, resolving past inconsistencies with special or non-ASCII characters.
In addition, the OpenAPI import process has been refined across Studio wizards and CLI tools. Definitions now retain consistent property types and metadata, providing a more reliable foundation for API orchestration. To support the ACS enhancements introduced in this release, sample configuration files have been updated to include the latest settings and reflect both Public and Private deployment models.
These updates reinforce Fabric’s reliability and accuracy in environments where consistency across tools, formats, and teams is critical.
