Semarchy xDM 5.3 release notes
This page provides the latest information about Semarchy xDM version 5.3, including new features and bug fixes.
Feature highlights
Integrated authentication
Semarchy xDM version 5.3 brings considerable improvements for authenticating and managing users:
-
Users and roles can now be managed into Semarchy xDM, reducing the dependency on the application server and facilitating user administration tasks such as provisioning, assigning roles, or resetting passwords. These tasks can be performed using the Semarchy xDM Configuration user interface of the administration REST API.
-
Built-in identity management supports all identity providers and protocols—such as Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly known as Azure Active Directory), Google, OKTA, or Auth0, using OpenID Connect, SAML, or LDAP—which facilitates the implementation of single sign-on (SSO) authentication. Administrators can easily configure and test how users authenticate to the corporate identity provider, retrieve their roles, and synchronize their profile information.
Using these new features, administrators can set up and maintain users, roles, and SSO for the Semarchy xDM platform, in cloud and on-premises infrastructures.
Integrated datasources
Administrators can now configure in Semarchy xDM the datasources to connect the databases storing the data hubs, as well as xDM Dashboard and xDM Discovery data. They can also limit the usage of these datasources to specific functionalities to enhance data security.
The integrated datasources simplify setting up new database connections for data hubs, profiling, and dashboarding, and streamlines the deployment of Semarchy xDM across environments.
Secrets management
Secrets management allows administrators to secure the Semarchy xDM platform’s sensitive configuration items such as credentials, API keys, or passwords.
-
Secrets may be stored in the repository, encrypted with a choice of methods, using a local key or third-party key management services such as AWS Key Manager Service, Azure Key Vault or Google Cloud Key Management.
-
Semarchy xDM can also use secrets stored in third-party secrets managers such as AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, or Google Cloud Secret Manager.
With this feature, administrators and designers can store and manage sensitive configuration items with the highest security, and leverage corporate encryption or secret stores on-premises or in the cloud.
Data notifications
Data notifications enable designers to easily automate data and change propagation from the data hub to consuming applications.
Data notifications are delivered—on schedule or data change—to event streaming platforms (such as Apache Kafka) or applications via REST API calls and message services. Their payload is fully customizable, using Semarchy xDM’s named queries, and can contain any data change performed in the hub on golden data, master data, history, etc.
With data notifications, the designers and integration team can simplify data integration and change propagation patterns from the data hub to downstream systems.
Database views
Database views allow designers to design logical views in the model and deploy them in the data hub schema as views, where they can be consumed by external applications or xDM Dashboard charts and dashboards.
Database views use the full power of SemQL transformations, functions, and expressions to define each column’s content as well as data filters.
Using database views, developers can quickly design and deploy SQL APIs for their data hubs, aligned with the model structure and life cycle.
Other notable changes
Integration
-
Delayed continuous loads prevent job contention with continuous loads by delaying load submission in the event of long-running certification job instances.
-
A new REST API Mass update action on the Manage load endpoint allows updating multiple records in a single call, using literal or SemQL expressions.
-
The REST API Manage load endpoint can be configured to limit the response payload to a summary of the changes instead of all records.
Application Builder
-
Compact Mode in Steppers: application authoring form fields have been rewritten to support the compact mode.
-
New Markdown form field supports rich text editing.
-
A new reference is automatically added to the model diagrams containing both entities linked by the reference.
-
New Add Existing Reference actions in the model diagram palette to add existing references.
-
The properties view of the Collection Columns and Form Fields have been reorganized in the Application Builder. This view now appears in a vertical panel and supports multi-selection.
-
The Melissa Personator Enricher plugin is updated with the latest features of the Melissa API.
-
New Current task performer assignee available in workflow transitions.
-
New and updated design-time properties to limit import to record creation or update in workflow transitions, stepper collection steps, and actions.
-
In SemQL, The MasterRecords transition is now available on the GoldenDataWithErrors view.
Changelog
Version 5.3.27
Known issues
-
MDM-7254: With PostgreSQL, the application server hosting the Semarchy xDM instance and the database server must be in the same timezone to avoid inconsistent dates in the integration loads.
-
MDM-7917: A boolean field default value is set to null when creating a record and to false when editing it.
-
MDM-7949: A model with a physical column name using a reserved name raises a validation error but can be deployed.
-
MDM-8034: When stopping Semarchy xDM using the Tomcat Manager, a
Severe
message is logged withorg.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.checkThreadLocalMapForLeaks…
. This message is a known Tomcat issue that can be ignored. -
MDM-8703: Data import from Excel does not handle properly dates before February 28, 1900.
-
MDM-8977: Changing a reference to a fuzzy-matching entity while authoring a master record is not taken into account.
-
MDM-9184: Existing
FS_
andFP_
reference column values in a basic entity are overwritten by an enricher when this record is modified by the API or by authoring. -
MDM-10193: When a record in an entity is updated, records with the same ID in inheriting entities are also updated.
-
MDM-10269: Using the
SEM_NUMBER_TO_CHAR
function with a string argument does not raise a model validation error but fails with aninvalid number
error in the log. -
MDM-10319: Authoring the same record in two different browser windows makes the second authoring fail with a
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Current Step (products) should be a form step
error. -
MDM-10738:
Duplicate flexElement
error occurs at runtime when using a transition named like a form element (e.g., "field", "container") in a business view. -
MDM-12415: Long-integer values higher than 9223372036854700 raise errors when authoring (
Invalid ID for data type (longInteger)
) or browsing (<entity name> not found

MDM-13099: When moving an attribute from one group to another governed by a different survivorship rule, any overridden value within this attribute causes all other attributes in the new group to be considered overridden as well. As a result, the values of these attributes may be nullified during the subsequent execution of the certification process, unless override values have previously been defined. To minimize potential negative impacts on data consistency and accuracy, designers should consider moving attributes with pre-existing overridden values to a group that does not include any other attributes.
Bug fixes

Breaking changes
-
MDM-14408: To increase security, the
X-Forwarded-For
,Forwarded
, andX-Real-IP
HTTP headers are now ignored by default. A newallowXForwardedHeaders
system property is available to process these headers, which should be activated only when the xDM instance is exclusively accessible through a reverse proxy.
Bug fixes
-
MDM-14407: Third-party module upgrade: Apache Tomcat (xDM Preconfigured).
-
MDM-14405: Starting xDM on a Mac M1 or M2 CPU using an arm64 JDK fails with an
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module
error. -
MDM-14355: With ID-matched entities, the absence of publisher ID for referenced records causes components such as browsing, named queries, enrichers, and validations to fetch incorrect references when several master records have the same ID but different publishers. A new
-Dmdm.dataaccess.resolveIDMatchedRefsWithSamePubId
system property allows bypassing this limitation by forcing the publisher ID to the same value as the child record’s. This property is set tofalse
by default and must be set totrue
to enable this behavior. -
MDM-14164: File upload security enhancement. The maximum number of files that can be uploaded at once in Configuration and in the Application Builder is now set to 100 files. A new
-Dcom.semarchy.mdm.maxImportFileCount
system property allows customizing this value. -
MDM-14138: When a form is opened in a stepper, a nested exception
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'order'
is raised with SQL Server under certain conditions. -
MDM-13876: HTTP connections are not closed by REST data notifications.
