SugarCRM Mobile SDK 6.5.0

Enhancements and Changes

The following features and changes have been introduced in this version of the Mobile SDK:

Core Functionality

• The core corresponds to the production version of SugarCRM Mobile 6.5.0.494. See the Android or iOS release notes for SugarCRM Mobile 6.5.0 for details.

Other Notable Changes

• Global search on SugarCRM Mobile now uses Sugar's Elasticsearch engine via the /rest/v10/globalsearch API endpoint. This means that marking individual fields as searchable and weighting them in Studio according to their search priority also affects global search in the app.

• Cordova CLI has been upgraded from version 7.1.0 to version 8.1.2.
