This version, released on the 30th Aug 2022, is based on DSpace 7.2.1 tag. This version provide new features, improvements and fixes for several bugs.

Key Enhancements

  • Machine Token: it is now possible to generate a long lived JWT token that is independent from the session login, so that it can be used in external system to query the DSpace API without giving away your credentials. The new feature is accessible from the profile (user account) page. The machine token can be revoked by the user.
  • Multi-language support: visualization of metadata values according to the UI language with fallback to the default language and available values in other languages. Multi-language support is also available in the search and browse for metadata coming from vocabularies and value pairs (dropdown)
  • Manage bitstreams via the XLS BulkImport: support to edit bitstream metadata, attach, delete new files pointing to local folder configured in the server or remote location (via public ftp, sftp, http, https)
  • New fresh rendering for attachments that allow a more clean visualization of the bitstream metadata

Major improved areas/bug fixes
Several bug fixes and improvements have been introduced in the area of

  • submission: type-bind, controlled-vocabularies, lookup, support for different upload panel in different collections
  • edit submission mode: change bitstream policies, configure a single mode for the access and upload step to make the UI simpler
  • statistics: improvement to the navigation among the pages
    and much more, please refers to the commit history for details.
