  • New serviceOutputField attributes allow changing the default sorting of service results:
    • sortMode: defines how the comparision between field’s values is done.
    • sortFieldOrder: determines the order of the field in the sorting criteria.
    • sortAsc: ascending or descending sorting.
  • The admin-command „get environment“ returns a json object instead of a string for the key „ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLES“.
