What's new April 2026

Smarter data, cleaner platform 

This release focuses on data accuracy and platform quality — improving how numbers display across the backoffice, giving administrators better control over database growth, extending the Admin Web API with new filtering capabilities, and laying important groundwork for a faster and more scalable platform.

The most significant change this release is under the hood: asynchronous service methods have been introduced across the Litium platform, enabling non-blocking I/O for database, Redis, and Elasticsearch operations. This improves throughput and scalability and aligns the platform with modern .NET async/await patterns. Note that this change includes breaking changes — please refer to the upgrade guide before upgrading.

Asynchronous service layer for non-blocking I/O

Introduce asynchronous service methods across the Litium platform to enable non-blocking I/O operations. This includes async support for communication with the database, Redis, and Elasticsearch, allowing developers to avoid blocking threads and improve application throughput and scalability. With this change, developers will have async alternatives when calling Litium services, following modern .NET async/await patterns.

Note that this change introduces breaking changes — please refer to the upgrade guide for details.

Ability to display and edit numbers in user locale

As an administrator you would like to view and edit numbers in accordance with your locale settings for decimal separator, thousand separator and digit group size. With this feature we implement support for this across the Litium backoffice.

Maintenance of Connect ERP Import reports

Connect ERP Import reports are being created but are never removed, leading to large databases and increased storage costs. With this new feature you can configure the retention time under Settings > System settings > Maintenance.
 

Admin API: Ability to search categories based on base product id in API

When working with products in the Admin Web API, there is no easy way to find the categories of a product. With this feature we add a new filter that can be used to search for categories that are linked to a certain base product.

Admin API: Ability to search persons based on organization system id in API

When working with persons in the Admin Web API, there is no easy way to find persons connected to an organization. With this feature we add a new filter that can be used to search for persons that are linked to a certain organization.
