Why now?
A key dependency of the Agent service is . As SpringBoot v2 is no longer supported, we upgraded to SpringBoot v3, which is no longer compatible with Java 8.
Why Java 17?
Java 17 has been released in 2021 and benefits from Long Term Support.
How to stay on Java 8?
If you need time to migrate to Java 17, you can stay on the Agent version 23.9 LTS, which will stay supported on a best effort basis until September 2024.
Please note that this support will be on a best effort basis: As this version relies on an unsupported version of SpringBoot, we may not be in a position to fix a bug or vulnerability that will be discovered in SpringBoot v2. If the issue is not related to SpringBoot, we will fix it as per our support policy.

MessageML - Accept new languages in the <> tag: Markdown, JSON, Scala, Shell, YAML
and now support auto-submit: When auto submit is enabled for an element, the form gets submitted on selection of the drop down menu, or when typing the <enter> key in a text field. This allows a faster and more natural interaction with a form, and works very well with the capability to update a form with a new state (using the MessageUpdate endpoint). You can create cascading drop down menus for example.
