# July 2024 (24.2.8969)

> Release notes for CData Sync July 2024 (build 24.2.8969).

## Key Features

### Added

* Added Automatic Retry capabilities to jobs.
  * You can configure **Automatic Job Retry** on the **Job Details** page.
  * When this feature is enabled, CData Sync re-executes the job.
    * If the last run is an error, Sync re-connects and attempts to run the full job.
    * If the last run fails, Sync executes only the specific tasks that failed.
* Improved the **Email Server** settings:
  * Added badges for email addresses.
  * Added the **To** and **Error Only** fields in **Settings** > **Notifications**.
  * After you configure notification settings at the application level, notifications are turned on automatically for all newly created jobs.
* SQL transformations now support the CALL statement.
* Exporting settings now requires a password to encrypt sensitive values.
* Improved the performance of the initial snapshot for Change Data Capture jobs. Added the **SnapshotSize** job option to control how many records to retrieve incrementally with the default value is set to 100K rows.
* Added PostgreSQL as a source for reverse ETL jobs.
* Improved custom schema generation.
  * Deprecated the **Location** connection property. Now, Sync always write schema files to `/<ApplicationDirectory>/connections/<ConnectionName>/`.
  * Removed invalid input parameters.

### Changed

* The `/api.rsc/$oas` endpoint now returns the version of Sync.
* The password for a user can now be updated using the [Sync API](../../rest-api/v1/update-user).
* The **Logs** tab for connections now refreshes automatically when the test connection fails.
* Connecting via OAuth now generates only one log file instead of three.
* Improved previewing connection logs.
  * Increased the size of the dialog box.
  * Added line wrapping.
* When you import a job, the schedule is turned off. This feature should prevent jobs from starting immediately after successfully importing them.
* Updated the **Install Connector** flow to include **Automatically install connector** and **Manually install connector** options.
* Changing the **Application Log Level** setting no longer requires Sync to restart.

### Fixed

* Fixed the location of **Start Menu** shortcuts that incorrectly included the current year. Shortcuts are now written to `C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Program\CData Sync\`.
* Fixed an issue where the **Add Tasks** dialog box flashed "Select Schema" for sources that do not support multiple schemas.
* Fixed an issue where Sync incorrectly used an older version of a connector.
* Fixed multiple profiles that did not properly render the connection settings.
* Fixed an issue where tasks allowed the INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE commands. Sync now validates that the query is a REPLICATE, CACHE or CHECKCACHE command.
* Fixed an issue where the server logs were not always written to the `httpserver` folder.
* Fixed an issue where renaming a job caused the loss of configured events.
* Fixed an issue where the **API Access** and **Active** checkboxes did not accurately show whether a user was active or had API access.
* Fixed an issue where some tasks incorrectly showed incremental replication as **Unsupported**.
