# 13.22.0

{% hint style="info" %}
**Release date 01-04-2026**
{% endhint %}

## New Features

* **Batched outbox publishing** — Messages are now fetched and published in configurable batches, improving throughput.
* **Outbox circuit breaker** — Automatically stops polling when the message broker is unavailable and resumes once connectivity is restored.
* **Outbox health indicator** — Exposes outbox publisher status via `/actuator/health`.
* **Suppress outbox for Object Management** — A `suppressOutbox` property can be set on object management configurations to skip outbox writes for read-heavy integrations.
* **Pipelined RabbitMQ confirms** — The RabbitMQ publisher now sends all confirmations in parallel instead of one-by-one.
* **Case definition-scoped access control permissions** - Permissions can now use `CaseDefinition` as a container condition. See [container conditions](https://github.com/valtimo-platform/valtimo/blob/v13-stable/documentation/features/access-control/container-conditions.md) for details.

## Bugfixes

* **Replaced Carbon overflow menus with custom overflow components**

  The Carbon Design System overflow menu components have been replaced with custom-built overflow components throughout the application. The Carbon overflow menu had persistent issues with sizing, positioning, and lacked adequate support for custom panes and custom trigger elements. The new custom components resolve these limitations and provide a consistent, flexible overflow menu experience across the platform.
* Fixed sensitive data logging in inbox messages and null safety issues in SSE event mappers.
* Fixed MySQL outbox message query missing ordering.
* Fixed RabbitMQ outbox publisher null safety on confirmation result.

## Deprecations

The following will be removed in 14.0:

* `OutboxMessageRepository.findOutboxMessage()` — use `findOutboxMessages(batchSize)`
* `ValtimoOutboxService.getOldestMessage()` — use `getOldestMessages(batchSize)`
* `ValtimoOutboxService.deleteMessage(id)` — use `deleteMessages(ids)`

## Known issues

This version has the following known issues:

* **Outbox circuit breaker never recovers from OPEN state**
  * Discovered in version 13.22.0
  * Fixed in 13.23.0. Workaround: Disable the circuit breaker using the `valtimo.outbox.publisher.polling.circuit-breaker.enabled` property.
