New Features - What's New with Build 236?


InfoBurst’s new HTML UI 


InfoBurst’s new HTML UI is unveiled in Build 236. The roll out of the new UI will be in phases, with the first phase being the operational section of InfoBurst - Monitoring and Scheduling.  Until we have the complete set of functionalities in the new UI, your current Flash based UI will  be the primary interface for creating and managing InfoBurst content. The new UI will co-exist with your current flex UI. Going forward, new and enhanced features will be added to the HTML UI along with our platform releases. To access the new User Interface for your existing InfoBurst deployment, upgrade your platform to Build 236 and navigate to your server using the syntax below. The UI is accessed on port 8554.
