Upgrade from v2 to v3

This is for:

Developer System Administrator

Quantic v3 introduces changes that improve the library’s performance and usability. Notably, Quantic v3 uses organization endpoints by default.

Important
The following are breaking changes from Quantic v2 to v3

Organization endpoints

Organization endpoints is a feature that improves separation of concerns, resiliency, and make multi-region and data residency deployments smoother. Starting with Quantic v3, the usage of organization endpoints will be enforced, as opposed to optional in v2.

The CoveoTokenProvider class will change to always use the organization endpoints. Since you have most likely copied and changed this class to implement your own search token provider, you should update your implementation to use the organization endpoints as well.

Renamed

The following were renamed without changes to the underlying functionality.

QuanticResultBadge

The component has been replaced with QuanticResultTag

Custom events

Some custom events emitted by Quantic were renamed with the quantic__ prefix to make them easier to identify.

  • rating → quantic__rating

  • headerclick → quantic__headerclick

  • headerkeydown → quantic__headerkeydown

  • renderfacet → quantic__renderfacet

  • selectvalue → quantic__selectvalue

  • citationhover → quantic__citationhover

  • like → quantic__like

  • dislike → quantic__dislike

  • pressexplainwhy → quantic__pressexplainwhy

  • registerresulttemplates → quantic__registerresulttemplates

  • select → quantic__select

  • deselect → quantic__deselect

  • loadingstatechange → quantic__loadingstatechange

  • change → quantic__change

  • registerrecommendationtemplates → quantic__registerrecommendationtemplates

  • haspreview → quantic__haspreview

  • suggestionlistrender → quantic__suggestionlistrender

  • arialivemessage → quantic__arialivemessage

  • registerregion → quantic__registerregion

  • tab_rendered ` → `quantic__tabrendered

Removed

Rephrase buttons

These buttons were removed in v3, due to low usage not justifying their maintenance.

withRephraseButtons, answerStyle, and multilineFooter properties of the QuanticGeneratedAnswer component

These properties were used for the rephrase buttons and were removed in v3.

QuanticGeneratedAnswerRephraseButtons component

This undocumented rephrase button component was removed in v3.

quantic_OpensInSalesforceSubTab custom label

This undocumented custom label was removed. Unless you had custom logic based on this label, the change should be transparent.

resetSelection and blur methods

These methods were exposed on the internal QuanticSearchBoxInput component, which was used by the QuanticSearchBox and QuanticStandaloneSearchBox components. The methods were removed because they weren’t used.

The useCase property was removed. It didn’t do anything, so the change should be transparent.

Changed

The following were changed.

QuanticDocumentSuggestion

quanticDocumentSuggestion.showQuickview, which was set to false by default, has been replaced by quanticDocumentSuggestion.withoutQuickview, which is also set to false by default. If you were setting showQuickview to true, you can remove this property from your code.

Quantic Version 2

<c-quantic-document-suggestion engine-id={engineId} max-documents="5" show-quickview></c-quantic-document-suggestion>

Quantic Version 3

<c-quantic-document-suggestion engine-id={engineId} max-documents="5"></c-quantic-document-suggestion>

If you were setting showQuickview to false, or leaving it to false by default, you can replace it with without-quickview set to true.

Quantic Version 2

<c-quantic-document-suggestion engine-id={engineId} max-documents="5"></c-quantic-document-suggestion>

Quantic Version 3

<c-quantic-document-suggestion engine-id={engineId} max-documents="5" without-quickview></c-quantic-document-suggestion>

QuanticSmartSnippetSource title and uri properties

Both title and uri properties were replaced by the source property.

This change is unlikely to affect you, since it’s used by the QuanticSmartSnippet and the QuanticSmartSnippetSuggestions directly, relieving you from the need to use QuanticSmartSnippetSource directly.

But if you were using the QuanticSmartSnippetSource directly, you’ll need to use source instead of title and uri.

Quantic Version 2

<!-- html -->
<c-quantic-smart-snippet-source engine-id={engineId} title="{sourceTitle}" uri="{sourceUri}">
</c-quantic-smart-snippet-source>
// js
get sourceTitle() {
    // ...
}
get sourceUri() {
    // ...
}

Quantic Version 3

<!-- html -->
<c-quantic-smart-snippet-source engine-id={engineId} source="{source}">
</c-quantic-smart-snippet-source>
// js
get source() {
    clickUri: //...
    title: //...
}

QuanticSearchInterface, QuanticInsightInterface and QuanticCaseAssistInterface originLevel3 default value

The originLevel3 property default value was changed from default to document.referrer.

This change should be transparent, unless you were doing something specific with the originLevel3 property in your code or usage analytics reports.

Moved

The following example components were moved under the /examples folder and are no longer part of the Quantic package.

  • packages/quantic/force-app/main/default/lwc/exampleSearch to packages/quantic/force-app/examples/main/lwc/exampleSearch

  • packages/quantic/force-app/main/default/lwc/exampleStandaloneSearchbox to packages/quantic/force-app/examples/main/lwc/exampleStandaloneSearchbox

This change should be transparent, since examples aren’t meant for production use.
