Featured: TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Agentic AI (Tech Preview)

This release marks a strategic shift toward intelligent, agent-driven orchestration. The new Agentic AI Connector empowers developers to seamlessly blend Large Language Model (LLM) reasoning with traditional deterministic business logic.

  • Intelligent Agent Orchestration: Design both broad orchestration agents and specialized domain-specific agents capable of autonomously coordinating tasks and making contextual decisions.
 
  • Multi-Provider LLM Connectivity: Establish a unified interface to leading LLM services, with built-in support for OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic, Ollama, and VLLM.
 
  • MCP Server Integration: Directly connect to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to retrieve available tools and expose them to your AI agents, significantly extending their functional reach.


Advanced AI Activities:

  • AI Agent Activity: Send prompts to LLMs while managing agent settings and conversation memory.
 
  • AI Agent Trigger: Process requests both internally and over technology triggers, enabling agents to respond to real-time events.
 
  • Invoke AI Agent Trigger: Integrate AI-powered agents directly into your application logic by sending prompts and managing context history.
 
  • Safety & Compliance: Built-in support for guardrails, rate limiting, and token limits to ensure safe and predictable agent behavior. You can also store conversations in a custom store and mask data using custom guardrails.



Additional Connector Updates

In addition to the Agentic AI suite, this release expands connectivity across the TIBCO ecosystem:
  • TIBCO Flogo® Connector for TIBCO FTL®: Now generally available, providing robust activities to publish and subscribe to messages using FTL’s destination-based messaging.
 
  • TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Mail: A new connector for accessing and retrieving emails via the IMAP protocol, supporting both batch polling triggers and fetch activities.

 

New Features for 2.26.1

Enhanced Core Features:

  • Circuit Breaker Pattern Support: To improve the stability and fault tolerance of distributed systems, Flogo now officially supports the circuit breaker pattern to prevent cascading failures.


  • Improved Mapper Functionality: Array Duplication: Developers can now duplicate arrays from multiple sources, allowing for the combination of different data sources within a single array.


  • Merge Node Enhancements: You can now add empty arrays as child nodes to a merge node using the new "Add Item" option, enabling more flexible split and merge operations

 

  • REST Trigger & Activity Updates:
    • Basic Authentication: The REST trigger now supports Basic Authentication, allowing credentials to be configured directly within the trigger for secure webhook access.
    • Custom Headers: You can now manually add custom headers in the `InvokeRest` activity, even when using an API specification.



Connector Enhancements:

  • TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ (EMS): Now supports Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) naming URLs for configuring connection factories.


  • Apache Kafka: A new "Schema Registry Vendor" field has been added to Kafka connections. This includes support for one-way SSL authentication for the Schema Registry, providing an additional layer of security.


  • Model Context Protocol (MCP): Now supports Elicitation, Sampling, and Logging activities.

Important Update: Mandatory Activation

Starting with version 2.26.0, running Flogo applications requires a valid license to start.

  • Action Required: Customers with active entitlements must generate a license via the TIBCO Software Downloads site https://www.tibco.com/downloads.
  • Resources: To learn how to configure this product for activation, visit https://docs.tibco.com/products/tibco-activation-service and the documentation for this release. For frequently asked questions on TIBCO® Activation, see FAQs. For more information, see Activation.
  • Important: TIBCO Flogo® application will shut down when you reach the end date of your entitlement to the product, and will not restart until you replace your license file with one that contains a new entitlement end date. It is recommended that you do so well in advance of your entitlement end date to avoid business disruption.

AI & Connectivity Enhancements

TIBCO Flogo® Connector for Model Context Protocol (MCP) 1.0.0 GA

This connector standardizes how Flogo apps provide context to Large Language Models (LLMs). Below support has been added in this release -

    • JWT Authentication: Secure your flows with JSON Web Token support, including access to scopes and expiry metadata.
    • Blob Resource Support: Enable the transmission of non-textual data, such as images, PDFs, and binaries, to AI models.
