Updates
Update Names of Permissions Groups for Saved Datasets (DATA-1466)
Visibility permission labels in the Saved Data Sets section of the FDE have been changed to be more specific. Previous options included Owner, Group and FEWS NET Only. The new options are:
Public - Everyone in all data policy groups can view

Early Warning Team Only - Only people in the Early Warning Team group can view
FEWS NET Only - Only people in that Data Policy can view
EWT Request for IMF Data Added to API Ingest Pipeline (DATA-1485)
Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, Labor data, and GDP data are now being pulled automatically from the IMF via the API ingest pipeline.
Create IPC Drupal nodes from public data only (DATA-1570)
This update ensures that only data collections with data source documents that have a Public data usage policy are published and refreshed on the Data Center.
Bug Fixes
FAO Price Pipeline (DATA-1518)
...
The FAO pipeline was running and failing due to dataseries metadata mismatch. To correct this, the dataseries required for successfully running the FAO price pipeline were created. In addition, an update was recently made so that when fetching data from web services, if there is a failure in one document due to unmatched metadata, other documents from that web service can still successfully pull data. This update was not working correctly and has been fixed.
This fix includes the following Jira issues:

Upload Revised Zimbabwe FSC Shapefiles (DATA-1566)
Revised Zimbabwe 2013 and 2021 shape files have been uploaded to FDW as follows:
Country and regional shape files on the website (e.g., https://fdw.fews.net/api/ipcpackage/?country_code=ZW&collection_date=2022-04-01, https://fdw.fews.net/api/ipcpackage/?country_group=903&collection_date=2022-04-01)
The shape files attached to the 2013 and 2021 ZW FSC geographic unit set versions in the FDW (e.g., https://fdw.fews.net/en/admin/spatial/geographicunitsetversion/193/change/?_changelist_filters=geographicunitset__country__iso3166a2__exact%3DZW, https://fdw.fews.net/en/admin/spatial/geographicunitsetversion/3410/change/?_changelist_filters=geographicunitset__country__iso3166a2__exact%3DZW)
Change the status of aggregated records(datapoints) from calculated to aggregated. (DATA-1575)
The status of all aggregated datapoints has been changed from
calculated
toaggregated
. This ensures that aggregated records are easily differentiated from calculated domain records.
Enable Helptext to be accessible to public users without a FDW Login ID (DATA-1583)
FDE and FDW helptext is now available without a login required. This allows users accessing publicly available dashboards (e.g., News Aggregator and Import Dependence Dashboard) to also access relevant helptext.

Additional news sources related to the war in Ukraine were added to the News Aggregator dashboard.

Bug Fixes
Filtering either by Geographic or Market Filters of the exchange rate data of the country Haiti results in all of the exchange rate data of all the countriesĀ (DATA-1390)
Filtering either by Geographic or Market Filters of the exchange rate data for
Haiti
(e.g., https://fdw.fews.net/api/exchangeratevaluefacts/?format=html&subtype=ExchangeRateValue&country_code=HT&fields=simple) returned exchange rate data for all FDW countries. This issue has been fixed and now returns correct exchange rate data for Haiti.
Spatial Export Bug Fix (DATA-1562)
In the spatial domain, population and demography estimates were not being shown in the data extract when shapefile attributes were included. This issue has been fixed.
Link to data disclaimer brokenĀ (DATA-1585)
The link to the data disclaimer in the footer of the FDE was broken. This link has been fixed.
