Introduced support for the following:

• Installation of the CloudLink application on Microsoft Windows Server 2016 and Microsoft Windows Server 2019.

• Provisioning of accounts from Microsoft Windows Server 2016 Active Directory.

This version of CloudLink also contains a number of bug fixes, including fixes for the following issues:

• If you used the Archive User Browser to select the users for a task, the task ran for the selected users, but in the Created Task List the Target was recorded as All. This has been fixed.

• In the welcome message template, CloudLink failed to save a change to the From field unless you also changed the content of the Body field. This has been fixed.

• In the Task Manager wizard, a problem occurred if you attempted to configure a task to repeat a set number of times. When you selected Number Of Times, CloudLink displayed the error message String was not recognized as a valid DateTime, and you could not save the task. This has been fixed.

• A problem occurred if you attempted to copy a task that had already run. CloudLink displayed the error message String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. This has been fixed.

• When CloudLink performed the bulk removal of web folders, it could fail to remove a web folder if the folder's name or URL had changed. Now CloudLink uses a more effective method to identify the web folders for removal.

• On the Task Manager wizard's page for Exchange user, group, or OU selection, the explanatory text was not clear. The text has now been improved.

This version of CloudLink introduced the following:

• Synchronization of on-premises Exchange mailbox delegation permissions. A new action for Exchange tasks lets you synchronize the delegation permissions that are applied to user mailboxes and shared mailboxes.

  See Introduction to Exchange mailbox delegation synchronization.

• Group-based Sync, which supports a specific LDAP custom query format to target Exchange distribution groups. Group-based Sync can accommodate changes in group membership when it is used in recurrent tasks. A new configuration file option lets you control what happens to the accounts of users who leave a distribution group that is targeted with a Group-based Sync.

  See Selecting users, groups, or OUs from the Task Manager Wizard.

This version of CloudLink introduced the following:

• Support for synchronizing linked mailboxes in an Exchange resource forest.

  Note:

  The option For user accounts disabled in Active Directory does not apply to synchronized accounts with linked mailboxes.

  See Configuring the additional Active Directory synchronization options.

• A new option to disable archiving for synchronized accounts if the Exchange mailbox becomes disabled.

  Note:

  Accounts whose Exchange mailboxes become disabled continue to be archived unless you configure this option.

  See Disabling Insight Personal Archive login and archiving for accounts with disabled mailboxes.
