Required actions
Update the MTA Plugin
Some new functions will not work on the old version of the MTA Plugin.
Because Menditect now hosts all Mendix Runtime versions (9, 10 and 11) in the same marketplace component, we have moved to a different versioning system. The major MTA Plugin version indicates the Mendix Runtime version. The remaining digits indicate the internal version of the MTA Plugin.
Replace Page call by Microflow call
The MTA Plugin is now an Add-on module. Imported Add-on modules cannot contain Snippets or Pages. If you used a Page to establish the connection to MTA, you can download a Module with a Snippet from here: https://marketplace.mendix.com/link/component/252213
Re-create your PAT
For Mendix Teams still using SVN repositories, it is required to re-create a Personal Access Token (PAT) in their Mendix profile, with the required scopes.
