Announcing Journey Manager 25.04

We are pleased to announce the Journey Platform 25.04 release. It is a major release of Manager, Maestro, Analytics, Workspaces, and is comprised of new features and bug fixes.

Journey Manager

The Journey Manager 25.04 major release introduces the following key new features and enhancements:

• Code Libraries
  A new 'Code Library' Service Definition is introduced, providing a centralized repository for custom classes that can be updated once and used across all services in JM, with only a single bytecode copy in memory. This feature eliminates code duplication, removes the need for 'fileIncludes' and large groovy script deployments, simplifies development and maintenance, reduces memory footprint, improves compilation speed, and removes serialization/deserialization requirements of objects between services.

  Functionally, Code Libraries can be called by any service, passed by reference between services whilst retaining state, securely access the Fluent API, instantiate and share instances with other Code Libraries, and be used with composition, ultimately enabling developers to build reusable, robust solutions with industry-standard coding practices and offering a better programming experience, while access is restricted to the secure Fluent Services.

• Form html injection service
  A new fluent service that provides functionality for injecting html content into the form render HTML returned to the browser by TJM. 

• Configuration service export
  We have introduced the ability to export TJM configuration via the Configuration Service. This can be used to move solution configuration across servers. 

• Job Event Wait
  Added new Job Wait type to collaborations jobs. The Event Job wait provides a job action wait that is configured to wait on a specific Event pushed to TJM. This feature helps bring the Eventing Framework into TJMs workflow.

• Log Improvements
  We have introduced a few changes to TJM logging. You can now set categories on Event and Error logs, this allows users to manage logs in TJM based on business or solution specific requirements. Internal TJM logs, including event, error, groovy etc, now also write out to system log files to allow for more integrations. 

• Dynamic Tasks for Job
  Collaboration Jobs now support the creation of Tasks dynamically. Being able to define tasks during active workflow drastically increases the flexibility and complexity of solution workflows.

• Service Tags
  Tags can now be added to Services to allow for customized management.
