New in this Release: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.3.0 (build 55)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-1084 | Colligo Briefcase will no longer sync with SharePoint on startup when the sync interval is set to Manual (in-app under Advanced Settings or when the Colligo Console policy Default Sync Interval is set to Manual.) Note: The Colligo Console policy Default Sync Interval must be set to something other than Manual if authentication is required when opening Colligo Briefcase for the first time after installation. If it is set to Manual, users will not receive the authentication prompt until they manually sync. |
Resolved Issues: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.3.0 (build 55)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-766 | The information dialog for sub-sites no longer displays authentication fields (username/password) when Single Sign On authentication is detected. |
| CREM-982 | The presence of text in the search field could cause users to experience a delay on switching sites (the larger the site, the longer the delay). |
| CREM-1059 | Colligo Briefcase would sometimes crash or display an error message when launched from the emailed Briefcase Link. |
| CREM-1098 | Resolved issues with ADFS authentication on iPads. |
| CREM-1104 | Colligo Briefcase would crash when syncing 10,000 or more files in a single library. (Files are distributed among different folders). Note: A crash may still occur if the 10,000+ files are located in the same folder and the user is currently navigated to this folder. |
| CREM-1126 | Saving annotations to a PDF document using the Save option was sometimes resulting in a zero byte file named temp.pdf. Annotations were not saved. |
Known Issues: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.3.0 (build 55)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-893 | In iOS 11, Colligo Briefcase crashes when an item in a Contacts List is selected. |
| CREM-1084 | Grid View list items are sometimes displayed as a blank row. This has been observed in iPads for libraries that have more items than visible on one page. Workarounds:
|
| CREM-1055 | Revoking permission to a subsite of a site that has already been synced does not remove the subsite from the view. As permissions have been revoked, no files will be visible should the user click on the subsite. |
| CREM-1079 | On iPhones, Advanced Settings is missing for synced subsites of previously synced sites. Workaround: Add the subsite as a separate site to sync the subsite directly. |
| CREM-1085 | Colligo Briefcase crashes when previewing large (1GB+) TIFF files. Note: TIFF file previews are supported for files up to 500 MB in size. |
| CREM-1096 | Users in a Control Group are able to view content from libraries they no longer have access to by using an emailed Briefcase Link. Workaround: Colligo Console administrators must remove the entire site. This will force the Briefcase Link to not work. Colligo Console administrators can then re-pin any locations that were unpinned when the site was removed. |
| CREM-1106 | Linked PDF files do not open. When a user previews a PDF containing a link to another PDF file in the same library, nothing happens when the user taps the link to the linked PDF file. |
Release 7.2.8 – 21 March 2018
This release includes new features that include contextual search, search filters, and support for hyperlinks in the PDF viewer part of the application.
As of this release, iOS 9 is no longer supported.
New in this Release: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.2.8 (build 30)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-715 | Support for hyperlinks in the PDF viewer portion of the application. |
| CREM-856 CREM-853 CREM-854 | Contextual search and search filters. When contextual search is enabled, users can search from the current location and below. When disabled, the application will search the currently navigated to site. When contextual search is enabled, a search filter can be used to limit the search to the currently navigated location (no subfolders). These features are enabled per user in the Settings area of the application and for a group of users in Colligo Console with the policies Enable Contextual Search and Show Search Filter. For details, refer to the knowledge base article Contextual Search. |
| CREM-941 | As of this release, iOS 9 is no longer supported. |
| CREM-945 | New Colligo Console policy Search Results Limit. This policy allows one to specify the maximum number of results returned from a contextual search. If this policy is not enabled, search results will be limited to the default value of 3. This policy is documented in the knowledge base article Console Policy: Search Result Limit. |
Resolved Issues: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.2.8 (build 30)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-704 | New list items were not appearing in the list until a synchronization occurred. |
| CREM-877 | Search result ordering was not reflecting metadata changes made to a file when the device was offline or if the device had not yet synced with SharePoint. |
| CREM-882 | The title bar of the search pane was displaying the filename of the file last previewed from the previous search results. |
| CREM-907 | The Loading… icon would keep appearing on the right side of the screen. |
| CREM-960 | Users are no longer presented with a SharePoint authentication prompt when there is no connectivity (no network or in airplane mode). Previously, a blank SharePoint authentication screen was displayed. |
Known Issues: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.2.8 (build 30)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-866 | On iPhones, contextual search is not available beyond the site level. |
| CREM-886 | When contextual search is enabled, the metadata date search is not based on the format displayed in the app (e.g. December 3, 2018). Workaround: Users may search in the format as stored by SharePoint (e.g. year-month-day such as "2018-12-03". Note that this may not be the format displayed in SharePoint. |
Release 7.2.5 – 23 October 2017
This release contains a change to how SharePoint permissions are reflected in Colligo Briefcase. Any SharePoint permission changes to an item after a site has already been synced are now honored. This includes granting and revoking permissions made directly on an item as well as permission changes made by adding/removing users from a SharePoint group. The items will appear or disappear on the next sync.
This release also contains these changes in behavior:
- When a new site is added: by default, the library selection will not have any items selected. Users can still select all items by selecting the Libraries and/or the Lists checkbox(es).
- Share to… and Open in…: The Share to… function has been removed and the Open in… function has been renamed to Share to…. For details, see CREM-808.
Resolved Issues: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.2.5 (55)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-592 CREM-726 | Revoking permission to an item does not remove the item from the application. (Known Issue in release 7.2).

Changes are either automatically identified, or are identified when the user refreshes the content. |
| CREM-664 | Settings page displays Colligo Engage Console rather than Colligo Console. (Known Issue in release 7.2). |
| CREM-745 | Adding a new library or granting permission to a library automatically selects and syncs the library. Expected behavior is for the library to be selected but not synced, unless specifically pushed from Colligo Console. |
| CREM-791 | When in Grid View, folders do not have a value in the Type field. This has been resolved. The value “Folder” is now displayed. |
| CREM-804 CREM-811 CREM-812 CREM-819 | Resolved various display issues presented in iOS 11 as menu/navigation bars with white text on a white or nearly white background. |
| CREM-808 | The Share to… function has been removed and the Open in… function has been renamed to Share to…. This change is because iOS 11 changed the way the application shares files with document providers |
Known Issues: Colligo Briefcase for iOS 7.2.5 (55)
| Reference | Description |
| CREM-810 | The Colligo icon in the iOS 11 dock is disabled and does not function. |
| CREM-815 | When permissions are revoked during a sync, a sync error appears for every item that has lost permission (Document download failure: Authentication needed). Workaround: Temporarily restore permissions or remove and re-sync the site (not just the library). |

| CREM-832 | iPhone users are not pushed back to the library list view if they are viewing a subfolder when permissions to the library are revoked. Workaround: Tap on the back button for as many folders as needed to return to the library list view. |
