Previously, comments might have been trapped in the Liferay UI; now, they are first-class citizens in the API, allowing for seamless discussion threads across any connected platform.

Liferay has expanded its Headless API capabilities to include full management of Object Entry comments. When commenting is enabled for an Object definition, developers can now interact with those discussions via dedicated REST endpoints. This update supports full CRUD operations (GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE) using External Reference Codes (ERCs) for easier identification across systems.

Key Benefits:

 

• Feature Parity for External Applications: Developers building custom front-ends can now provide a fully interactive "social" experience.

• Complete CRUD Capabilities: Users aren't just able to read comments; users can programmatically create, update, and delete them.

Customers can now leverage a Liferay Toolkit to quickly and reliably spin-up Liferay in AWS. By leveraging our toolkit, customers can speed-up their deployments, as well as benefit from a robust and reliable infrastructure that reduces costs and increases predictability in the long run. 

Key Benefits:

• Increased visibility of Liferay Application and every other application in your EKS cluster;

• Reliable deployment process with easier to spot drifts;

• Operational cost reduction for running Liferay in AWS.
