+== Infinite Scale 4.0.0
+
+[discrete]
+=== General
+
+This release primarily focuses on performance and stability improvements along with usability enhancements for a more streamlined user experience.
+
+Please find the full list of changes here:
+
+* Infinite Scale: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/releases/tag/v4.0.0[Changes in 4.0.0]
+* Web: https://github.com/owncloud/web/releases/tag/v7.1.0[Changelog for ownCloud Web 7.1.0]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Paste to Upload
+
+With the "Paste to upload" feature, you can instantly upload a single file by simply pasting it from your clipboard via kbd:[CTRL+V] / kbd:[CMD+V] in the Web UI. This eliminates the need for traditional file selection and upload methods, providing you an intuitive and swift upload process. Note: For security reasons "Paste to upload" works only for a single file, not for multiple files or a folder.

+
+[discrete]
+=== Fulltext Search: Highlight Matches
+
+Instead of just showing you the files that contain your search terms, it also highlights exactly where those terms are within each document. This will expedite your search for relevant content, saving you from the hassle of manually scanning through lengthy documents. Users can now activate the fulltext search by selecting the btn:[Search only in content] filter chip located on the search results page. This takes away the need for inputting search syntax. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9294[#9294]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Search: Location Filter
+
+The location filter feature allows you to refine search by specifying the file location. Now, instead of searching throughout your entire storage system, you can specify to search only within your current folder. This allows for a faster, more accurate search result, saving you precious time and effort. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9304[#9304]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Search: Tag Filter
+
+With the tag filter on the search results page, you can now refine your search results by specific tags. If you've assigned tags to your files and folders for better organization, you can utilize these tags as filters in your searches. This means you can narrow down your search results to only show items that carry a specific tag.
+
+For example, if you're looking for a particular project file and you remember tagging it as "Project X", you can input "Project X" in the tag filter, and the search results will only display files and folders with that tag. This new feature is particularly useful when dealing with a large number of files, making your search more efficient and manageable. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9044[#9044], https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9096[#9096]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Cloud Importer (experimental)
+
+We are excited to announce our new extension: Cloud Importer, designed to import files from other services. With this functionality, you can now seamlessly import files and folders from other services like OneDrive, Google Drive, ownCloud 10 or Nextcloud directly into Infinite Scale.
+
+Effortlessly transfer your work documents, shared files, or entire project folders from these popular cloud storage platforms to your account. Whether you're moving a single document or a large batch of files, the Cloud Importer ensures a smooth, fast, and reliable transfer. Note that the Cloud Importer only imports files, not shares or tags. Think of it as uploading a file, but from a cloud service instead of from your local drive.
+
+The Cloud Importer is disabled by default. To enable this extension, please refer to the xref:{latest-ocis-version}@ocis:ROOT:deployment/container/orchestration/orchestration.adoc#docker-compose-examples[WOPI Docker Compose Deployment] Example. https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/6702[#6702]
+
+This feature is experimental, i.e. its in a preview state, may break and individual production usage must be agreed with ownCloud Support.
+
+[discrete]
+=== Simplified Sharing Links
+
+The simplified sharing links make sharing files with both internal and external parties easier than ever, while maintaining the highest levels of security and access control.
+
+With simplified sharing links, you can generate a single, user-friendly link for any file or folder you want to share. This one link is all you need, whether you're sharing with team members within your organization or with external partners and clients.
+
+The advanced design of simplified sharing links respects the permissions of all recipients, regardless of whether they're internal or external. This means that users will only gain the access levels (e.g. view, download, edit) that you authorize. It ensures secure, controlled sharing without compromising on ease of use.
+
+An added benefit for internal users is the visibility of the file location. If permission is granted, internal users can see where the shared file is stored within the organization's file system. This enables them to navigate directly to the file location, eliminating the need to access the file via the shared link every time. This feature is particularly valuable for efficient collaboration and knowledge sharing within teams.
+
+Simplified sharing links combines convenience, control, and clarity in one package. Experience a more streamlined and intuitive way to share files both within and outside your organization, while always maintaining control over your files' security and accessibility.
+
+Note: If you create a sharing link that tries to grant more permissions than internal people have, the internal sharing permissions will take effect for internal people. In other words: The link acts as a "pointer" for internal people. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9299[#9299]
+
+[discrete]
+=== File Control Bar
+
+The file control bar is a static, always accessible bar located within the user interface of the document viewer or editor. It is designed to provide a consistent location where users can find and use critical file-related functions such as btn:[close] or btn:[save]. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/8442[#8442], https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/8447[#8447]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Links: Directly Open in Editor
+
+When you share a document that has a standard associated application, the link will now open the document directly in its respective app, instead of showing the document as a single file listing as it did previously. This enables recipients to immediately begin viewing or editing the shared document, eliminating the extra step of navigating from the file listing to the actual document.
+
+For instance, if you share a Word document, the recipient can click on the link and the document will open directly in its associated application, such as OnlyOffice or Microsoft Word, depending on the settings. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9046[#9046], https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9307[#9307]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Drop Files to the Breadcrumb
+
+You can now move files to a parent folder through a simple drag and drop action. Instead of navigating through multiple steps to move files, you can now simply grab the files you want to move and then drop them onto the breadcrumb trail representing the parent folders.
+
+For example, if you're in a subfolder and want to move a file up one level, you can drag the file to the breadcrumb link representing the parent folder. The file will be moved instantly, eliminating the need for traditional cut-and-paste or move-to operations. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9052[#9052]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Context Menu on Whitespace
+
+This feature allows you to right-click on any empty space (whitespace) within your file view to access the context menu. This action was previously limited to direct file or folder interaction, but we've expanded its functionality to utilize the whitespace as well, enhancing your control over the workspace. This new context menu provides quick access to commonly used operations. For instance, you can create a new folder directly from the menu, offering an expedited process for organizing your files. In addition, you can easily view details for the current folder, including its contents, shared status, and more, all from the same context menu. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/8921[#8921]
+
+[discrete]
+=== View Spaces as List
+
+Previously, viewing your spaces was limited to a tiles format. You can now switch to a list view that presents your projects in a clean, streamlined manner. This new view offers an overview of all your spaces, allowing for easy navigation and a concise visual of your work environment.
+
+This list view provides additional information about the space:
+
+* name of the manager
+* number of members
+* total quota
+* used quota
+* remaining quota
+* status
+* last modified date
+
+in a more compact and organized manner. This is particularly useful for users who manage multiple spaces, as it allows for efficient scanning and selection. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9195[#9195]
+
+[discrete]
+=== Other Notable Changes
+
+* Bugfix - Fixes for the Infinite Scale postprocessing restart command: Restarts the complete postprocessing pipeline if there is no active postprocessing: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/6753[#6753]
+* Enhancement - Add `ocis decomposedfs check-treesize` maintenance command: Verify the treesize metadata of a space in decomposedfs: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/6556[#6556]
+* Enhancement - Add server-sent events endpoint for notifications: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/5998[#5998]
+* Enhancement - Use reva client selectors to improve performance and scalability: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/6452[#6452]
+* Enhancement - Allow disabling WOPI chat to disable the inline chat in Only Office: https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/6544[#6544]
+* Enhancement - Download a whole space as archive: https://github.com/owncloud/web/issues/9056[#9056]
+* Enhancement - We've implemented a new solution to deal with long breadcrumbs even with long folder names: https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/8984[#8984]
+* Enhancement - Respect archiver limits. The archiver service announces a limit for the accumulated filesize of the currently selected resources. The web UI now respects those limits and shows a disabled download button once the limit has been reached. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9055[#9055]
+* Enhancement - Privacy statement in account menu. We've added the option to add an imprint and privacy statement via the config:
+ https://github.com/owncloud/web/issues/9174[#9174]
+* Enhancement - Allow local storage for auth token. We've introduced a new env var `WEB_OPTION_TOKEN_STORAGE_LOCAL`. When set to true (default), the auth token will be stored in the browser's local storage instead of the session storage. This will enable a persisted login state across multiple browser tabs. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9386[#9386]
+* Enhancement - Add login button to top bar. We've added a login button to the top bar, this might be handy if a user receives a public link, and they want to login with their user account. https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9178[#9178]
+* Enhancement - Add pagination options to admin settings: https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9199[#9199]
+* Enhancement - Add batch actions to search result list: https://github.com/owncloud/web/pull/9200[#9200]
+
+=== Known Issues
+
+This section will be updated if issues are discovered.
+
+=== Migrations
+
+* The space index of the decomposedFS will be migrated from symlinks to messagepack. This is an auto migration. See the xref:{latest-ocis-version}@ocis:ROOT:migration/upgrading-ocis.adoc[Upgrading Infinite Scale] documentation for more and important details.
+* If you use a customized theme you need to add 3 new color tokens to the theme.json:
++
+* `swatch-passive-hover-outline`
+* `swatch-primary-muted-hover`
+* `swatch-primary-gradient-hover`
++
+{empty}
++
+These colors ensure, that the primary and outlined buttons (e.g. "Upload" and "New") have a proper hover state.
+* If you used `yes` or `no` in your YAML files, please change these values to `true` or `false`. Background: The YAML parser we use does not support `yes` or `no` any more.
+
+=== Breaking Changes
+
+* Client pool selectors have changed from IP addresses `127.0.0.1:9xxx` to service names `com.owncloud.api.*`.  https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/6452[#6452]
+* All environment variables that were marked for deprecation in Infinite Scale release 4.0.0 have finally been removed. https://github.com/owncloud/ocis/pull/7099[#7099]
+
+See the xref:{latest-ocis-version}@ocis:ROOT:migration/upgrading-ocis.adoc[Upgrading Infinite Scale] documentation for important details.
