Compatibility with Java JDK 8 runtime has been deprecated as of Q4.2023. Java JDK 11 is now the recommended runtime environment.

Proxy Objects allows users to manipulate data directly in external systems, such as Salesforce. This feature provides the ability to always interact with live data, avoiding duplicating and conflicts between the systems.

Now, Liferay includes a connector to Salesforce for proxy objects. With it, you can integrate your proxy object with custom Salesforce objects, using Salesforce as an external storage system

Evolving the power of notification templates, this feature allows users to use variables not only from the object in context, but also from related objects.

This feature allows the user to define a default value for object picklist fields. Default Value can be configured for custom fields from both Custom and System Objects.

This feature allows the user to require that a field's values be unique inside of that column. When this is configured, the system will not let two records have the same value for that field, behaving similarly to a key to that entry.

This feature adds a new field type “Date and Time”. A Datetime value stores a year, month, day, time, and time zone. With this field, users will also be able to create time ranges, manage priorities and order entries well, and to give more context and assertiveness to the data.
