#### Release Date 26th Jan 2026 | V2.8.6

## Introducing New Features and Updates to Your Solix RTLS and IoT Management Platform Experience!

 This release focuses on improving administrative control, bulk provisioning, map usability, and overall system performance, while also resolving several UI and data consistency issues to deliver a smoother and more reliable user experience.

## Release Information:

**New Features** 

**Profile Management Enhancements** 
Super Admins can now update Country and Time zone settings directly from the Profile section, ensuring controlled and accurate configuration.

To simplify large-scale deployments, three new bulk APIs have been added: 

- **Bulk Tag Creation** 

- **Bulk Gateway Creation** 

- **Bulk Beacon Creation** 

**Independent Unit Preferences** 
Climatic units and dimensional units can now be configured separately, providing greater flexibility across regions. 

**Map Bearing & Rotation Support** 
Bearing rotation is now supported when adding or editing buildings, floors, zones, regions, and devices, enabling more accurate map alignment. 

**Floor Orientation Information** 
A new floor orientation info box has been added to improve clarity during floor setup and editing. 

**Improved Floor Editing Tools** 
Enhanced tools now allow easier adjustment of floor images and layout polygons for more precise map design.

Multiple APIs have been optimized to enhance overall platform performance and responsiveness. 

**UI & Usability Enhancements** 

- Redesigned **Add New Infrastructure** pages for improved usability.

- Corrected historical tag data display to be based on **floor level** instead of building level. 

**Gateway Health History** 

- Resolved an issue showing “Last offline: null” in connection details. 

**General UI / API**

**Tag Position History**

**Tag Sensor History**

**Live Map**
