Technical Details

• Quiq has identified an upcoming change to the Lightning Aura platform that prevents parsing the Lightning Proxy object wrappers into serializable javascript objects, resulting in errors when attempting to pass messages to the Quiq application via the window.postMessage API.

• This fix is contained in the Quiq Messaging Salesforce Managed Package Version 2.6. All tenants will need to upgrade to this version of the package before October 7th, 2023.

• A fix was applied that serializes the data in the Proxy object wrapper into a plain string which can safely be passed across the iFrame boundary to the Quiq application

• The upgrade does not require any additional configuration of the Salesforce Org. All components will be upgraded in place and the process will not interrupt usage of the Quiq Messaging product
