Flow Links needs an update to be compatible with Switch 2021 Fall
Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2021 8:29 pm
There is a change in the way scripting works in Switch 2021 fall and this causes a problem in the Flow Links App. If you see the following error messages being logged by the Flow Links Receive App, then you are running into this problem:
Error messages on a job with external datasets
Error in line 146 of script : Undefined member function 'getPath' for object 'undefined' of type: 'Undefined'
Failed to set private data of job ''
Failed to set private data of job ''
Failed to set ticket data of job ''
Failed to save IJT file for the new job with ID ''
Error messages on a job without external datasets
Failed to set private data of job ''
Failed to set private data of job ''
Failed to set ticket data of job ''
Failed to save IJT file for the new job with ID ''
I just created a new version (v5) which fixes this issue and sent it to Enfocus for review and publishing.
This new version should be available in the Appstore in a couple of days.
If you are planning to upgrade to Switch 2021 fall and are using the Flow Links app, then I strongly advise to delay this upgrade. Once version v5 of Flow Links is available in the Appstore you can install it and then it is safe to upgrade to Switch 2021 fall.
If there are people who already upgraded and they have the scripting module, then they can work around the issue by replacing the instances of the Flow Links Receive app with the script version of the Flow Links Receive app. You can download it from this link:
