Version 3.3.1

#Logs gruped for performance in CLI 

#Bugfix for new fields purchase steps, minAmount - maxAmount. If set to 0 the system would fail, since it is invalid in shopware

#Now possible to log to file, event log or both

#If item fails in sync service, sku is logged

Version 3.3.0

# New Feature: A new option is created in the plugin configuration, where you can enable / disable how custom fields are imported. If complex custom fields is enabled, fields will be imported as selectables / lists etc, at the cost of import speed. If disabled, all custom fields are imported as simple values. Multi selects are imported as string arrays. This improved import performance.

# Bugfix: Variant Options are now always correctly created as properties if the data exists in the payload from perfion

# Fixed issue in duplicate item validator

# Fixed issue in paths to temporary image folder. To ensure this does not cause issues / is a breaking change, version is upped to 3.3.0

# When using the new command flag --import-latest, the system could fail, if no recent batches were found. This issue has been resolved.

Version 3.2.13

# Fixed but in retention system

# Improved re-import

# Improved batch logging

# Improved product and variant field validation

# Now truncates meta fields if they are too long, in stead of skipping entire product

Version 3.2.11

# Fixed cast issue in retention system

Version 3.2.10

# When importing entities from Perfion, you can now use the flag:

# Fixed issue when not translating meta fields on primary language, when transferring it on other languages

Version 3.2.8

# When entering texts for product number, name og SEO fields in PIM, longer that 255 characters, the system would fail, since this is the Shopware limit. For products, the system now warns you which products are affected, and skips the items. For categories, fields are truncated.

Version 3.2.7

Version 3.2.5

# Missing primary translations on multi select values no longer causes the integration to fail. The user is now notified, and it is logged to the event log. The message is also added to the notification email system.

# Delta sync timestamps are now per-channel.

# Fixed active fields not being set correctly on variants.

# Sync operations for products are now processed 1 at a time, to allow the system to fail on a single product, in stead of an entire product batch; failed products are logged

Version 3.1.2

3.1.2 Perfion Shopware Connector Patch Notes

# New: Post Processing system; this system allows you to hook into the product import process and extend the use of the retrieved Perfion data.

# New: Extension system; allows you to build custom extensions that are executed as the final step in the integration process. Here you can use the Fluent API SDK to communicate with Perfion, and retrieve anything you would like, and extend Shopware to your needs!

# New: Related products in Perfion can now be imported as cross sellings in Shopware.

# New: Localizable SEO Meta fields can now be imported on products and categories.

# New: Fluent API SDK that allows you to call the “normal” Perfion API via a SQL Like fluent abstraction. Any entity from Perfion can now be imported!

# New: Proxy servers can now be used in the API endpoint configuration.

Patch notes:

# Localizable SEO meta fields are now supported for categories and products

# Cross Selling types are now supported. Related product types in Perfion, can now also be created in Shopware.

# System fields are now skipped when creating custom fields.

# Perfion Variant Dimensions no longer needs to be added to the 'filterable_properties' mapping, they are added automatically, and Variant Dimensions are now always created as properties. This should make the variant configuration process a bit simpler.

# When activating / deactivating products and categories, only Perfion items are modified, which allows products and categories from different sources to exist in Shopware.

# Fixed bug in one of the Fluent API filters.

# General interfaces added to more classes, to make extensibility easier

# Logger has been generalized

# For extension system, it is possible the execute only extensions, and skip all other imports.

# Changed the way the connector checks for the existence of images on the Perfion Image API, since HEAD requests do not seem to be supported.

# Product and Category activation and deactivation only runs on full imports (for items not contained in the API response). Of course delta-updated items will still have their activation status updated.

# ScheduledTask is now deactivated by default, since it is used for debugging mainly. This is to avoid any confusion regarding automation of the integration.

# Modified Category Import to allow any category structure in Perfion (formerly the category tree had to be rooted in the Feature in Perfion; you can now chose to import a subset of your Perfion categories if needed.

# Added support for HTML custom fields.

# Attachements from Perfion (Files etc) are now be retrieved via the EcommerceService request. This information can be used in a PostProcessor to download documents if needed (or save URLS in Shopware). The connector does not insert this type of data without any custom post processing extension.

# Added (Simple) PreImport data validator, to do a final filtering of invalid items before attempting to insert them into Shopware.

# Added additional logging.

# Added additional information on Perfion integration parameters, when validating Perfion configuration up front.

# Added plugin configuration to add a proxy server as the Perfion API Url

# Added plugin configuration to enable / disable SSL certificate validation.

# Fixed bug in Shopware lookups when no products are present in Shopware.

# Fixed minor issue with custom fields.

# Fixed an issue when assigning multiple sales channels on products.

Version 3.1.1

# Added proxy URL to Image Downloader
