The option RemoveUnprintableCharactersFromTexts for XML based target formats (GAEB and ÖNorm) now defaults to true. If you want to serialize unprintable characters, it needs to be specifically enabled
v1.36.0:
Added Position.GaebComplementingType as a new enum property to transport information about GAEB markup / complementing types in positions. This means that in GAEB XML and GAEB 2000, the different markup types are now preserved. From a Dangl.AVA perspective, there are no changes required to implement on your side, but exports might now look different than before, meaning they more accurately preserve the data in the original GAEB file
v1.35.0:
The GAEB target for version 3.3 has been updated to now export GAEB XML V3.3 with version year 2021-05. The original GAEB XML V3.3 with version year 2019-05 has been pulled back by GAEB. The original, older version may still be exported with the targets GaebXml_V3_3_2019 or GaebXml_V3_3_2019_Commerce
AVACloud clients are now automatically published during AVACloud CI
v1.34.0:
On premise hostings of AVACloud can now run databaseless, please see the README for instructions how to configure this
On premise hostings of AVACloud can now run without authentication, please see the README for instructions how to configure this
AVACloud was updated to .NET 7
v1.32.4:
Docker images for AVACloud self hosted versions are now also available for ARM images, e.g. to run on Macs with Apple M1 chips
v1.32.0:
Added Position.OenormProperties.OenormShortText and Position.OenormProperties.OenormShortTextAddition to the Dangl.AVA data model
v1.31.1:
Added SubDescriptionDto.UnitTag as a new property
v1.31.0:
Added ConsiderNullItemNumberSchemaAsInvalidForRebuildOperation as a boolean query parameter when converting to GAEB targets. This defaults to false, but if enabled, can be used to instruct AVACloud to consider null values in ItemNumberSchemas as invalid schemas, and thus triggering a rebuild attempt for the schema
v1.30.0:
Endpoints that produce GAEB files now have an optional query parameter ForceIncludeDescriptions that, when set to true, will force include all description elements like LongText properties and ExecutionDescription elements. This is useful when exporting to GAEB 84 - Offer phases when you still want to keep the descriptions
All elements of type IElementDto now support catalogue references, meaning that it is now possible for users to use those in elements of type NoteText and ExecutionDescription. This is, however, not supported for exchanges into other formats and can only be used within the AVA project itself
A new validation endpoint was added, that allows users to validate AVA projects, GAEB & ÖNorm files
v1.29.0:
GAEB 2000 files now support images, both for import and export scenarios
Fixed an issue with the .NET clients, newly introduced enum values caused the deserialization of JSON responses to fail for older client libraries. Starting now, the clients libraries will assume the default enum values for unrecognized values
When converting to REB, it's now possible to also convert to X31 files
v1.28.0:
Added CatalogueType.OenormB1801CostGroup, which can be used in ÖNorm XML based exchanges to describe ÖNorm B 1801 cost groups attached to positions
Added AbsoluteDeduction to ServiceSpecification and ServiceSpecificationGroup elements, which is supported in GAEB 2000 and GAEB XML exchanges. This is available as a backwards compatible way, meaning that the DeductionFactor of those elements will still be present
v1.27.5:
Fixed a bug when importing GAEB 90 and GAEB 2000 files with skipped item number levels and top level positions that have an index defined
v1.27.0:
The AVACloud backend was updated to .NET 6
AVA dependencies were updated, Position.HtmlLongText now supports a bidder comment, wrapped in a div element with class="bidder-comment" at the end of the text. Additionally, all description elements now have a new boolean property indicating if the used long text contains a bidder comment. Please see the documentation for Dangl.AVA for more details
v1.26.1:
The max size for file uploads was increased to 50 MB
v1.26.0:
When importing GAEB files, it is now possible to set the supportSkippedItemNumberLevelsInPositions. This defaults to false, but enables a new feature that properly supports skipped item number levels in GAEB files. For example, if an item number schema defines two group levels and one position level, but the position has is at the second level in the hierarchy, the item number may be displayed as 01.__.02 instead of 01.02.. This is in accordance to the GAEB standard, but is currently specified as an opt-in behavior. Since this feature is still considered to be under testing, it might be updated or changed in future releases
Endpoints that take an AVA project now have an optional feature to automatically generate the ItemNumberSchema and individual ItemNumbers in case it's missing
Added feature to optionally remove unprintable characters when exporting to GAEB or ÖNorm, to ensure valid XML can be generated
v1.25.0:
Multiple bugfixes for handling ÖNorm B2063 files
v1.24.0:
Self-hosted instances can now be configured to allow Http scheme in the Swagger documentation instead of Https
The ÖNorm and SIA / Ifa dependencies were updated and include many bugfixes. The import and export results may be different than in previous versions. While the element structure was not changed, many fixes are related to how elements are mapped between Dangl.AVA and the Austrian and Swiss formats
v1.23.0:
The handling of ÖNorm B2063 file was improved. Among several bugfixes, AVACloud now supports missing optional group levels and handles them correctly. This means that internally, the project structure is not restored to a valid number of parent group levels, which means that importing ÖNorm B2063 files from now one might return different, but more correct results
v1.22.0:
The internal packages were updated, there's a new property Position.AlternativeGroupIdentifier available in the Dangl.AVA model that allows users to explicitly specify the group identifier used when exporting base and alternative positions
v1.21.0:
When converting to ÖNorm Xml based formats, AVACloud will now default to try outputting valid Xml files according to the schema. This means that required but missing properties will be filled with sensible defaults
Conversions that target ÖNorm can now set a new query parameter SkipTryEnforceSchemaCompliantXmlOutput to disable strict Xml output when creating ÖNorm files
Several smaller bugfixes when deserializing GAEB files have been added
v1.20.0:
Dangl.AVACloud now supports the new ÖNorm V2021 format for import and export
v1.19.0:
GAEB exports to GAEB XML can now optional export QtyDeterm items (Quantity Determination or Quantity Take Off), which can be used to export detailled quantity calculations via GAEB
The internal modules were updated to support more features, mostly for GAEB and ÖNorm
The SIA endpoint can now also deserialize crbx Ifa18 files
Subscriptions to AVACloud are now no longer handled by the service itself, but by the external identity provider
Responses on the public instances should now correctly compress, even those being served from the Cloudflare CDN endpoints. This saves around 90% of bandwidth for most request scenarios
Dangl.AVACloud was updated to .NET 5
For on premise or self hosting customers, Dangl.AVACloud can now be configured to use API key authentication, thus no full integration with Dangl.Identity is required
For on premise or self hosting customers, Dangl.AVACloud now supports PostgeSQL in addition to SQL Server and SqlAzure_ as database providers
v1.18.0:
Added support to export ÖNorm files to V2009
v1.17.0:
Added a new parameter EnforceStrictOfferPhaseLongTextOutput when converting to GAEB. This parameter is only applied when the conversion target is GAEB XML and the exchange phase is Offer. This leads to long text exports being strict, meaning that only text addition segments are exported and all other textx are removed from the export, even if the containing element is marked to contain a text addition
Added support for the old ÖNorm B2063 format in import and export scenarios. This is still in a preview state, no guarantee is given that the import and export is working correctly
v1.16.8:
Fixed a bug where embedded images in Excel files could cause the deserialization to fail. This was caused by missing native dependencies in the Docker images. This did not impact most Excel files, since images are not supported when importing Excel in AVACloud
v1.16.0:
All endpoints that accept the Dangl.AVA format now accept explicitly empty string values for Guids and enumerations. These empty values will resolve to their internal default values and should make it easier to implement clients
The Swagger specification now correctly describes the application/problem+json content type that may be returned for some Http status codes when client side errors occur
v1.15.4:
The Excel conversion controllers now internally abort the conversion if the client closes the connection to free up server ressources
v1.15.0:
Dangl.AVACloud now runs on ASP.NET Core 3.1 and uses the latest Dangl.Identity integrations

When the source format is an AVA Project, it is now possible to set both ProjectTaxRate and ProjectHourlyWage directly on a ServiceSpecification when the ServiceSpecification.PriceInformation element is missing
v1.14.0:
Internal dependencies were updated to support additional properties in the AVA project model
v1.13.0:
When exporting to GAEB or ÖNorm, the ProgName value can now be controlled by the user. By default, the name of the OpenID client will be used. This can be configured by setting a special client claim. Please see the documentation for more details
v1.12.0:
The Dangl.AVA data model was updated and now supports ProductData
Import of REB and GAEB X31 files for quantity takeoff is now supported
v1.11.0:
Properties that represent DateTime are no longer marked as required by the Swagger definition endpoint. This is because the underlying .NET model uses non-nullable DateTime properties that are omitted from serialization if they have no actual value set
v1.10.0:
AVACloud now supports GAEB XML v3.3 files in import and export scenarios. This does not change the public interface but only introduces a new DestinationGAEBType value
v1.9.1:
Add AvaToAva conversion to regenerate calculated properties
Fix regression where properties with default values, e.g. DateTime, were not omitted from the output when ProjectDtos were returned
v1.9.0:
Add support for importing properietary aslv files
v1.8.1:
The interactive documentation was changed back to use Swagger 2.0 instead of OpenAPI 3.0, since most tools still have compatibility issues with the newer specification
v1.8.0:
The generated assemblies now have a strong name. This is a breaking change of the binary API and will require recompilation on all systems that consume this package. The strong name of the generated assembly allows compatibility with other, signed tools. Please note that this does not increase security or provide tamper-proof binaries, as the key is available in the source code per Microsoft guidelines
v1.7.21:
Add initial support for GAEB XML Version 3.3

Updated Dangl.GAEB to v1.6.7 for latest improvements to deserialize GAEB XML files with missing GAEBInfo declarations
v1.5.0:
The Dangl.AVA dependencies were updated to v2.1.0. This now also includes support for the new destination GAEB phases SideOffer and CostEstimate
