Guardian will receive the following updates as part of the November 4-6 2026 deployment.

Enhancements:

BDM Export Improvements

  • Added timestamps to filenames so files sharing the same name are not skipped or overwritten during the export process.

  • Files with the .zip, .mov, and .mp4 extensions will now be automatically excluded from generated BDM exports.

  • Files added while modifying an existing case will now be included in the BDM export.

Notification Settings Warning Refinement

  • Removed the general warning previously displayed on the Notification Settings tab.

  • Added a contextual warning that appears only when an administrator attempts to disable the "Send Email" notification type.

  • The warning explains that disabling "Send Email" will prevent users from sending emails of that type through Guardian for the related cases.

  • Existing sender-side validation remains unchanged.

Historical Data Imports Case Attachment Error Reporting

  • Updated the historical data case attachment import process so applicable logs and errors are captured in the designated error file.

  • Error files will provide clearer information when an attachment cannot be imported.

Accessibility Improvements

  • Addressed identified WCAG accessibility findings involving field labels, required-field identification, color contrast, and the use of color to communicate selections.

  • Improved keyboard navigation, focus visibility, focus order, and focus behavior within dialogs.

  • Improved accessible control names, link text, dialog titles, page structure, ARIA attributes, and the communication of selected and disabled states.

Bug Fixes:

Required Field Validation on Incident Report Forms

  • Corrected an issue that prevented required custom input fields from displaying the expected "requirement not met" validation error when left blank.

  • Custom IR form question fields that are marked "Required" will now display the standard "Requirement not met" error message when someone attempts to submit an incident report without completing them.
