FAIR Data Services Version 2.22.0

First Released: 22 October 2024

Summary

This release introduces the ability to request a workspace as part of the DAR process.

It also includes updates to cohort builder, further changes in support of user groups and self service management of external datasets.

The release also includes a number of minor bug fixes.

Workspace Requests in a DAR

From this release the following FAIR curated roles will have the workspace request permission added as standard:

  • Data Manager
  • Data Steward
  • Standard

This means that users with those roles will have the ability to request a new workspace as part of the DAR process

Where hub administrators have created custom roles, the permission will need to be added to those manually as required.

Released features

Feature Type Jira key Summary
Unable to change case sensitivity of dictionary field BugFix FAIR-4565

This resolves an issue with editing dictionary fields in a dataset

Update Dataset UI Pages to update based on Datasource Feature Availability Enhancement FAIR-7573

This introduces changes to the FAIR UI that make it more responsive to the data source, removing features that are not available.

For example externally held datasets do not require data files to be uploaded to FAIR, therefore when a dataset has an external data source the data file upload component of the UI will not be available.

Cohort settings do not respect the query dictionary dataset BugFix FAIR-7963

This resolves a bug with Cohort Builder, previously a user with API access could create a cohort with dictionaries from multiple datasets.

Update Metrics To Successfully Report Dataset Details for Direct & Indirect User Association Enhancement FAIR-8014

This ticket updates FAIR metrics to take account of users' membership of User Groups.

DAR workspace request: Add workspace request permission to curated roles Enhancement FAIR-8474

As detailed above this ticket introduces workspace request in a DAR as a standard permission for three curated roles in FAIR.

Dark Theme - custom text upon DAR submission is not displayed BugFix FAIR-8580

This resolves a bug with the display of the new custom DAR message feature.

Cohort builder - mismatch in dictionaries between sub-cohorts causes visualisation to break BugFix FAIR-8611

This resolves an issue with Cohort Builder, previously a mismatch in the dictionaries between sub-cohorts would cause cohort visualisations to break.
