### General

- Security (#3569 - 8.1.2): Added the `SameSite` flag with the `Lax` value to all WorkflowGen server response cookies.

- Security (#3652 - 8.1.2): Added the `HttpOnly` flag to all WorkflowGen server response cookies.

### Portal

- Feature (#3486 - 8.1.1): Advanced View: Added `Server-side paging` to the advanced search gridview.

- Bug (#3612 - 8.1.0): Fixed an error message display issue when a `file not found` exception error was raised in the data file download.

- Bug (#3642 - 8.1.1): Advanced View: Fixed an exception error when sorting the gridview by a data column with the `Quick approval buttons` mode enabled.

- Bug (#3647 - 8.1.2): Fixed a sporadic performance issue where a request or action list would try to retrieve the data of all requests or actions.

### Administration

- Feature (#3485 - 8.1.0): Process participant: Added a new permission option to allow specific users to access all requests and actions of a process in `read-only` user mode.

- Feature (#3464 - 8.1.1): Added a new `API` access level for sub-process, which restricts a process that can only be started from the APIs such as `GraphQL`, `Webhooks`, `SOAP Web Services`, and `Remote launch URL`.

- Enhancement (#3650 - 8.1.2): Form Designer: Added the `Maximum length` field behavior (i.e. `maxlength` attribute) to `textarea` form fields to limit the number of input characters.

- Bug (#3670 - 8.1.2): Fixed an issue where some parameter settings (i.e. `Data IN` and `Scripting language`) were missing in the new action after duplicating from an existing action.

### Workflow Engine

- Bug (#3658 - 8.1.2): Fixed an authorization issue that prevented a sub-process in `archive` status to be started from a parent process.

### Workflow Applications

- Enhancement (#3664 - 8.1.2): Support for retrieval of value into `Numeric` and `DateTime` process data using JSONPath query in `JSONTODATA` and `RESTAPICLIENT` system actions.

- Bug (#3654 - 8.1.2): Fixed an authorization issue that prevented a standard action initiator from starting a new request via the `STARTPROCESS` system action with the `IMPERSONATE_USER` parameter.

### GraphQL

- Enhancement (#3485 - 8.1.0): Added new `canAccessAllRequests` field to the `ProcessParticipantProfile` type, `AddProcessParticipantProfileInput` and `UpdateProcessParticipantProfileInput` input objects.

- Bug (#3611 - 8.1.0): Fixed a performance issue when retrieving `requests` or `actions` and verifying if the user is the `assigned by` user of the action.

### Webhooks

- Enhancement (#3485 - 8.1.0): Added new `canAccessAllRequests` field to the `AddProcessParticipantProfile` and `UpdateProcessParticipantProfile` operations in the `swagger.json` template file.

### GraphQL v5.1.2, Webhooks v6.1.2, Auth v3.0.8 and SCIM v3.0.8

- Updated Node.js vulnerable dependencies.

## Notes

- All of the Node.js modules (`GraphQL v5.1.2`, `Webhooks v6.1.2`, `Auth v3.0.8`, and `SCIM v3.0.8`) now require Node.js **version `14.16.1 LTS`**.
