VERSION HISTORY

What is the current version, which features are new, etc.?

All versions and changes are listed historically below:

Feb. 27th, 2025 - syncDings for Microsoft Teams - Version 1.2.1.0

Enhancements:

  • Improved proxy handling: syncDings now supports basic authentication. 
  • Added an option to prevent showing the user interface: Admins can now change the value of the PreventShowingUI setting in the syncDings.exe.config file to "True" to prevent the user from being able to open the UI and close the app. 
  • Added an option to prevent pop-ups: Admins can now change the value of the PreventAllPopups setting in the syncDings.exe.config file to "True" to prevent any pop-ups from the app. Notes: This also disables error pop-ups. Use with caution, especially if coupled with PreventShowingUI. 
  • Enhanced UI: Faster reaction times of UI.

Bug fixes:

  • Wrong proxy settings: syncDings did not fully respect the configured proxy settings. Fix: It should now auto detect and use the configured Windows proxy settings. Optionally the settings can be overwritten on Application level under: C:\Program Files (x86)\Deliberate\syncDings\syncDings.exe.config xpath:/configuration/system.net/defaultProxy/proxy
  • Genesys status change when offline: If the user logged out or closed the browser and the agent status chaned to "Offline" a change in Teams status changed the Genesys status according to the set rules. Fix: When the Genesys status is set to "Offline" the rules no longer impact synchronization. Once the agent logs back into Genesys the status synchronizes again.
  • App settings not recognized: When the app settings were changed in the syncDings.exe.config file syncDings would always use the default values, which were always "False". Fix: A change in syncDings.exe.config file is now recognized and admins can change the values to get the desired effect.
  • Fixed potential threading and locking issues

Known issues:

  • proxy.pac are not supported: syncDings does not currently support proxy.pac.
