Brief Connect v2.5.9 Release Notes

Release date - Thursday, June 18th, 2026

Package version: 2.5.9

This is a patch release with a single bug fix that resolves an issue where proxy notification emails were not sent to all configured active proxy users.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed proxy notification emails not being sent to all active proxy users

When a user had multiple proxy users configured, assigning a record to the delegator for action could send a proxy notification email to only some of the configured proxy users instead of all active proxy users.

Proxy notification delivery now correctly targets all active proxy users configured for the delegator.

  1. Go to Azure DevOps, open your Brief Connect project
  2. In the left panel navigation, go to Pipelines -> Library -> Variable groups
  3. Review variables for all environments included in this release and update values where required
  4. Save any changes

Create a new release
