New Direct Access gateway version (1.7.16)

Direct Access gateway 1.7.16 introduces both new and enhanced features, and resolves several issues. For upgrade instructions and a list of resolved issues, see Upgrading the Direct Access gateway installation

• Chunks recovery can be disabled per connection

  You can now disable chunks recovery for specific connectors, providing more granular control over reload resilience and performance. This setting overrides the global chunks recovery configuration and can be configured directly in the connector settings or via the Public API.

  For configuration details, see Disabling chunks recovery per connection.

• Canada region support

  Direct Access gateway now supports deployment in the Canada region, expanding availability for customers with data residency requirements.

• Improved reload stream throughput

  Reload stream throughput has been improved through optimization of thread pool management, WebSocket protocol handling, and adaptive pacing. These improvements are automatic and require no configuration.

• File Connector custom file extension support

  The File Connector now allows you to configure custom file extensions beyond the default supported types. Configure allowed extensions through the gateway settings or by editing the extension configuration file.

  For configuration details, see Allowing custom extensions.
