Special Upgrade Instructions

If you are upgrading from 9.0.0 please check that the migration script from 8.3.20 to 8.3.21 has been run. If it has been run there will be a column export_file_formats_enum in table stream_view. If this column does not exist you must run the 8.3.20 to 8.3.21 migration script before running the 9.0.0 to 9.0.1 migration script.

Improvements and New Features

DEV-13401: Font has now changed for all expressions to Roboto Mono.

DEV-13553: Added "Max Duration" to task plan under "advanced". value must be blank or a positive integer. When a value is entered the task plan will be automatically cancelled after running for a number of minutes equal to the max duration.

Added "Earliest start" and "Latest end" to task plan under "advanced". value must be in the format hh:mm e.g. 06:30. If one is set then the other must be set as well. When both are set the task plan can only be run after the start time and will end automatically at the end time if still running.
