December 18, 2023 release notes

General

We've improved the GoFileRoom sign-in process to help avoid confusion with the new Thomson Reuters Account.
During the sign-in process, the user will now get re-directed to the Thomson Reuters Account sign-in page if the username doesn´t exist in GoFileRoom.
The GoFileRoom legacy password options will only display for valid GoFileRoom systems accounts users and will not allow for editing.
We've corrected 2 issues in
Document Search
.
In certain situations, the
Edit
icon displays light gray, as a disabled option, when the document should be available to make edits.
After selecting the
Preview
icon nothing happens. The Preview functionality is now working as expected and spawns another browser tab for viewing.
We corrected an issue when attempting to create a new user in the GoFileRoom
Administration
,
Manage Users and Groups
, then
Users
. It was possible to receive a warning message “Request Failed” in the final steps when attempting to save the new User.
We've corrected an erroneous sign-in message
You can Not access GoFileRoom from your current location. Please contact your GoFileRoom administrator.
IP Restrictions are now working as expected.
The FirmFlow API Utility has been reverted to version 2.2.7. and is now available from the GoFileRoom toolbar. If your firm is currently leveraging API services with this utility, it will be important to download and apply this version and use legacy username and passwords. This service is not supported by the new Thomson Reuters Account at this time. Check with your firm’s administration team to understand if your firm currently takes advantage of this utility.
The SSO URL field has been removed from
Administration
,
Manage Configurations
, then
Security
. This URL is no longer applicable for Federated Single Sign-on under the new design of the Thomson Reuters Account.
Opening GoFileRoom and viewing the
Home Page
has been optimized for improved speed.

Virtual Office

Includes changes to support the Thomson Reuters Account.
Eliminates a script error that some customers would experience when printing to GoFileRoom or using the GoFileRoom Add-In.
Provides Virtual Office customers with the ability to email from within GoFileRoom, using the Native Outlook on Virtual Office option.

FirmFlow

API and Automation

API enhancements and issues addressed on this release

Get DocumentSecurityGroups {/api/v1/administration/user/getdocumentsecuritygroups}
Get DocumentSecurityUsers {/api/v1/administration/user/getdocumentsecurityusers}

/api/v3/administration/user/createuser - This API lets you remove the password field from the request body. Accounts created using this API will automatically trigger an email to the new user to set their password via the new Thomson Reuters Account system.
/v3/administration/user/modifyuser - This endpoint has been updated to correctly update the user when modifications are made using the API.
/v4/administration/user/getuser - We made modifications to clearly indicate if the user is an AdvanceFlow user and removed parameters now handled within the Thomson Reuters Account.

/V1/Workflow/Route/Users?workflowId={workflowId}&filingId={filingId} - Allows the customer to retrieve a list of users that can be assigned responsibility to a specific workflow.
/V1/Workflow/Users - Returns a list of users with the FirmFlow license.
V1/Workflow/ServiceType/Users?workflowId={workflowId}&serviceType={serviceType} - Returns a list of users associated with a workflow.
V1/Workflow/ServiceType/Groups?workflowId={workflowId}&serviceType={serviceType} - Returns a list of groups associated with a workflow.
/V1/Workflow/InformationTab/Users?folderId={folderId}&filingId={filingId} - Returns a list of users that are available in the
Information
tab.

We've corrected an issue with the /firmflow/api/v1/FirmFlow/RollForward that would not allow customers to use a Group when using the
Assigned To
field.
Authentication was prohibited when IP restrictions were configured in GoFileRoom. Expected sign in is now working as expected when using development tools such as Postman.
Some customers experienced extra long file names when using the {/api/v1/documents/{documentId}/file} endpoint to retreive documents.
When using the {/api/v1/administration/user/modifyuser} endpoint group permissions were not being updated appropriately. This has been corrected.
The {/api/v2/firmflowreports/TrackingReportByWorkflow} was not properly filtering results upon providing a response.
The /gofileroom/api/v1/drawers/lookuplists/{lookupid} endpoint was providing mixed results due to commas and other punctuation.
