Version 8.2.2112

This version includes the following known issues:

Date filed Issue number Description
2023-06-29 SPL-241621 Dashboards are loading slower than typical.

Workaround:
Set disable_highcharts_accessibility=true in web-features.conf to restore dashboard performance.
2022-08-12 SPL-224045 Data intended for Summary Indexes may be be misrouted to the default "main" index and lead to incomplete search results for searches using the Summary Index.
2022-07-29 SPL-227633 Error : Script execution failed for external search command 'runshellscript'

Workaround:
The setting precalculate_required_fields_for_alerts=0 can be set on saved searches that have no other alert actions attached aside from the "Run A Script" action, to quash the error. For saved searches that have multiple alert action attached, this may not be safe as it will disable back propagation of required fields for all alert actions, which might result in the parent search extracting more fields than required, which could negatively impact performance for that search.
2022-02-22 SPL-219540 outputlookup command in a federated search creates output on RSH
2022-01-19 SPL-217505 Federated searches fail when 'table' command is used

Workaround:
Fix a federated search that runs into this issue by appending `| noop search_optimization.replace_table_with_fields=f` to the search string.
