Dataverse 4.18.1

This release provides a fix for a regression introduced in 4.18 and implements a few other small changes.

Release Highlights

Proper Validation Messages

When creating or editing dataset metadata, users were not receiving field-level indications about what entries failed validation and were only receiving a message at the top of the page. This fix restores field-level indications.

Major Use Cases

Use cases in this release include:

  • Users will receive the proper messaging when dataset metadata entries are not valid.
  • Users can now view the expiration date of an API token and revoke a token on the API Token tab of the account page.

Complete List of Changes

For the complete list of code changes in this release, see the 4.18.1 milestone in Github.
