Fixed

• QFE: Fixes #4403. Patched Unicode CLDR database which caused file upload in Polish to appear blank, by @compulim, in PR #4406

[4.15.3] - 2022-08-10

Breaking changes

• Suggested actions is now a role="toolbar" and adopted roving tab index
  • <kbd>TAB</kbd> key will now land on the container, instead of individual button
  • While the focus is on the container, <kbd>LEFT</kbd>/<kbd>RIGHT</kbd> arrow keys are used to select different buttons (<kbd>UP</kbd>/<kbd>DOWN</kbd> for stacked layout)
  • Visual focus indicator is now two tiered. The default styling is same as the one we use in chat history
    • New style options added suggestedActionsVisualKeyboardIndicatorColor, suggestedActionsVisualKeyboardIndicatorStyle, suggestedActionsVisualKeyboardIndicatorWidth
  • Suggested actions container will be unmounted when there are no suggested action button to display
  • Suggested actions container is not longer a live region. The suggested action buttons will now be narrated by the chat history live region
• Published NPM packages will now include /dist, /lib, and /src folders
  • The /dist folder was previously missing from our NPM packages
• The activity.channelData.state property is being deprecated in favor of the updated activity.channelData['webchat:send-status'] property. Main differences include:
  • Previously, we would set the state property to "send failed" when the chat adapter failed to send the activity, or after passing a timeout as defined in styleOptions.sendTimeout
  • The new 'webchat:send-status' property will be set to "send failed" when the chat adapter fails to send the activity or after passing a hardcoded timeout of 5 minutes
  • See PR #4362 for details

Changed

• Resolves #4301. Updated Dockerfile to support secure container supply chain, by @compulim in PR #4303
• Resolves #4317. Updated package.json to allowlist /dist, /lib, /src, by @compulim in PR #4318
• Resolves #4322. Improved error messages for sending activities, by @compulim in PR #4362
• Resolves #4211. Added new useSendStatusByActivityKey hook to check the UI send status of an outgoing activity, by @compulim in PR #4362
  • The send status returned by this hook is designed to display different UIs that reflect the "sending", "send failed" or "sent" status of the activity
  • When modifying styleOptions.sendTimeout prop, the send status returned by this hook may transition from "send failed" to "sending", and vice versa
  • This is different from the send status provided by the chat adapter, namely activity.channelData['webchat:send-status']

Fixed

  • Centralized live region of suggested actions into chat history live region for better live region control

• Fixes #4312. groupActivityMiddleware returning invalid value should not throw exceptions, by @compulim, in PR #4378.
