Centralpoint Update 8.11.106
Date of Update: Monday, May 19, 2025
| Feature | Summary |
| Web API Natural Language Search Integration | The Development > Web API module has been enhanced with a new Natural Language Search method that enables external applications to access Centralpoint's Contextual Search capabilities through a standardized API endpoint. This integration allows developers to leverage the advanced search functionality by referencing the DataId of an NLS Configuration record, providing programmatic access to the same intelligent search algorithms, relevance scoring, and contextual capabilities available through the web interface. Organizations can now extend their search infrastructure beyond the Centralpoint platform while maintaining centralized configuration and benefiting from the sophisticated ranking and filtering mechanisms developed throughout previous phases of the Contextual Search Engine. |
| Module Properties > Resource Content Attributes was added to Content > Video Library | The purpose of this feature is to extract text from files based on defined attributes and insert the extracted content into a system attribute named ResourceContent. Support for extracting content from .vtt files has been added. |
| Form Management > Processing > Web Request/Response | Now supports Basic Authorization |
| Centralpoint Contextual Search Engine - Phase 5 Enhancements | The fifth phase of the Centralpoint Contextual Search Engine introduces support for multiple NLS Autocomplete scripts on a single page. To enable this functionality, HTML element IDs have been modified, with corresponding CSS classes added to maintain backward compatibility. Existing customizations referencing the previous IDs must be updated to either target the new IDs or utilize the equivalent CSS classes. Additionally, the Container Selector can now target input elements directly, expanding implementation options for advanced search interfaces and interstitial pages. The Natural Language Search scheduled task has been enhanced with two new statistical properties: "Contextual Search Query Statistics Days To Process" for managing sliding window tracking of query relevance, and "Contextual Search Query Statistics Minimum Count" for filtering low-frequency searches from analytics, ensuring more meaningful search insights and improved system performance. |
| New code to handle Resource download name | Depending on the 'ResourceDownloadName' property, the user can change the name from the system name of the resource to the regular resource name. |
