We released an update today to Flows, SDK, CLI, Globus Connect Personal, and Globus Connect Server.


HIGHLIGHTS


Globus Flows

  • Flow authors can now include date and time math directly in their definitions with the addition of timestamp functions in the flows expression language. This enables, for example:

    • Creating a temporary directory with a unique name:
      "path.=": "'/~/dmz_tmp/' + str(to_epoch(now()))"

    • Transferring files which were modified in the last 5 days:
      "last_modified_min.=": "strftime(sub_time(now(), days=5), '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S%:z')"

For more information on this release, see our API Change History.


SDK and CLI

  • Flow web inputs can now be managed through the globus-python-sdk and globus-cli.

For more information on this release, see globus-python-sdk and globus-cli.


Globus Connect Personal

  • High Assurance collections will use FIPS-compliant ciphers for all data and metadata in transit. See our documentation for more information.


Globus Connect Server

  • Improved performance of collection listings

For more information on this release and previous GCS releases, please see the GCS Changelog.
