Release Date: 1st September 2019
Evolphin Zoom 7.3.1-RELEASE.108 is a full release consisting of Windows servers, and Windows and Mac clients. This release is primarily a delivery vehicle for combining the Ping integration, along with several key security fixes.
Usability Enhancements

Major Fixes

- Removed a code vulnerability where the user profile may be updated using the Web Management Console to gain undue access to admin functions.
- Zoom installer on Mac has been updated to include changes for Java 8.

- In the Web Client, downloading one or more assets in a collection as a zip works fine now with no duplicates in the downloaded zipped file.
- The ‘Add Tag’ button on Collection detail page displays properly now in the Web Client.
- While using the Ping realm, global logout in a desktop Zoom app also logs out the user from Zoom web apps now.
- In the Ping realm, attempting global single sign-on from the Zoom Adobe plugin on multiple Adobe apps works without any error now.
- Files imported via Hot Folder are now saved inside Zoom with the default comment “hot-folder import”.
- Users can log in using single sign-on without any hassle through the Zoom Adobe plugin in more than one Adobe apps at the same time now.
- In the Zoom Adobe plugin, users can now log-in to Zoom without the login page automatically refreshing and clearing out the typed credentials.

- In the Ping realm, a user does not get logged out now after clicking Reload Properties inside the Zoom Adobe plugin.
- Cinema 4D Team Render settings are successfully validated now in the Z-Settings window.
- For HADR Servers running in different time zones, spec replication works now so that all servers are always in sync now.

- In the Web Asset Browser, asset thumbnails are still available after Zoom Server recovers from an unexpected crash.
- A proper confirmation message is shown now when an asset is moved between folders in the Web Client.
- While checking-in assets on a HADR setup, the popup informing about copying of data to the other HADR Servers shows the Cancel button now instead of ‘Run in Background’ as the functionality to hide that popup is not available.
Major Pending Issues

- In the Asset Browser, sometimes the Uber Search is also including assets that do not satisfy the search criteria.
- In the Asset Browser running on a Mac machine, Premiere Project’s project files do not open directly in Premiere Pro, but only inside the containing folder in Finder, when Edit is selected from the context menu.
- In the Asset Browser, check-out of folders fails when either Auto Lock On Check-Out or Ask To Lock Before Check-Out is enabled for Lock Settings
