It’s the place for information about customer-reported issues across Salesforce products. You can view the status of an issue and subscribe to notifications. The B2C Commerce Release Notes continue to provide information about new features and major feature enhancements.

• Migrate Your Zones to eCDN with WAFv2
  Salesforce B2C Commerce now uses eCDN with WAFv2. WAFv2 brings advanced security features to safeguard all your zones, both existing and new. You can migrate your existing customer zones from WAFv1 to WAFv2 as a self-service option. You can configure eCDN WAFv2 settings directly through the Business Manager UI or CDN Zones API for new zones. In addition, eCDN with WAFv2 integrates ruleset enhancements that improve firewall security and reduce false positives, improving threat detection accuracy and minimizing disruptions to normal operations.
• Search Response Times Are Quicker
  B2C Commerce has improved the performance of the common category lookup in storefront search and search refinement. Based on internal testing, the search engine calculates search refinements two times faster. With improved search, your users experience faster storefront response times, providing a smoother browsing experience.
• Import and Export Dynamic Categorization Rules
  In Business Manager, easily import and export dynamic categorization rules, including the excluded product list. The Catalogs Import & Export feature now updates the catalog.xsd schema with detailed information on categorization rules and excluded products within the catalog tag structure. Previously, you couldn’t import and export the dynamic categorization rules.
• Import External Coupon Redemptions
  You can now update the status of a coupon redeemed outside of B2C Commerce using the new Coupon Redemption API (/organizations/{organizationId}/coupons/actions/redeem). To identify the source of redemption for an external coupon, use a custom reference ID or any custom string. You can also add an optional email address to the redemption for further tracking and communication. To update multiple coupon redemptions at one time, use the new ImportCouponCodeRedemptionsStep job step. This bulk import, which works only in merge mode, streamlines the process of managing multiple redemptions at scale.
• Get Enhanced Security with TLS v1.3
  The B2C Commerce service framework now supports TLS v1.3 for outgoing HTTP calls made from the platform. TLS v1.3 provides enhanced security features that don’t require complex configuration. It offers modern encryption standards that protect against known vulnerabilities and supports secure integration with third-party partners. If you encounter connectivity issues while using TLS v1.3, contact Support for assistance.
• Implement Enhanced Security Controls in Commerce Cloud
  Commerce Cloud is implementing a new security measure that blocks traffic to staging instances that doesn’t originate from Commerce Cloud eCDN from accessing the hyphenated demandware.net hostname. This change rejects all calls using ‌hyphenated hostnames, such as staging-, to access the Open Commerce API (OCAPI) or Storefront.
