This release includes the following fixes and updates:
- Added a new FAQ article to address common questions about the updated Target UI and Visual Experience Composer (VEC).

<head>tag, a feature previously available in the legacy Target UI. (TGT-52304 & TGT-52300) - Removed unnecessary validation when selecting the default workspace during activity creation.

triggerView()calls were not being detected. (TGT-52575) - Fixed an issue in the updated Visual Experience Composer (VEC) that prevented users from adding modifications to Single Page Application (SPA) views. (TGT-52556)

- Added a message to inform users when an entity is not accessible in the selected workspace. (TGT-52767)
- Fixed an issue where the UI failed to allow manual assignment of an environment ID to a criteria. Instead, it defaulted to the ID for the Product Catalog Search host group. This fix ensures that criteria changes are now applied across all environments, not just the default. (TGT-52817)
- Fixed an issue where the “Download Recommendations data” option was missing for Experience Targeting (XT) activities with recommendations. (TGT-52730 & TGT-52756)

Target UI version toggle deprecation (May 23, 2025) toggle
The rollout of the new Target user interface will be complete by May 27, 2025. At that point, all customers will have access to the latest UI version.
Starting June 22, 2025, the UI version toggle will be removed. All users will transition permanently to the new interface, with no option to revert to the previous version.
Important information about the UI version toggle
We’re offering a temporary feature that lets you switch between the updated Target UI and the legacy version using a toggle button. This option is available only during the final phase of the UI rollout.
Once the rollout is complete, the toggle will be removed, and all users will transition permanently to the updated UI on June 22, 2025. ۶Ƶ recommends planning ahead, as this feature will be phased out soon.
Limitations of the UI toggle behavior
- Visibility of new activities: Activities created in the updated UI will not be visible if you switch back to the legacy UI.
- Editing existing activities: Changes made to existing activities (originally created in the legacy UI) while using the updated UI will be published to your website. However, these updates will not be visible in the legacy UI if you switch back; only the last updates made from the legacy UI will appear there.
- Consistency of activity details: The most recent changes, regardless of which UI you use, will be reflected on your live website. However, the legacy UI will only show the latest changes made from within that version. This might cause confusion if activities edited in the updated UI look different than what you see in the legacy UI.
