v1.0.0-rc.6 – Mimir Integration Enhancements and API Improvements

Date: 2025-11-12
Status: Release Candidate 6

This release includes extensive improvements identified during continued work on the Pixop–Mimir integration, along with API bug fixes and internal enhancements.

Internal

Introduced new alerting and integration utility components:
- AlertNotifier and SlackAlerts for improved visibility and error notifications

Pixop API

Fixed

Resolved an issue where filtering videos by masterVideoId on the /videos endpoint could result in a 500 error

Added

New optional videoDescription parameter for all video processing endpoints that start a job
New videos/{videoId}/compare-with/{targetVideoId} endpoint added, along with two new related ErrorCodeEnum values
Added videoId field to the SourceVideo schema

Mimir Integration

Combined the two custom actions for accepting and rejecting processing jobs into one, now with a confirmation step to select the action
Combined the two custom actions for deleting with or without derived videos into one, also with a confirmation step
Replaced multiple custom actions for requesting processing jobs with a single unified action, where the desired processing configuration is selected in a confirmation step
Now assigns comments on items to notify Mimir users about completed or failed processing jobs
Stores information in Pixop when data has been saved in Mimir to determine when a master video can safely be deleted
If both master and processed videos are fully ingested, a comparisonLink is now added to the Mimir item to easily compare source and processed videos
Introduced an integration guard to automatically pause integrations per tenantId when repeated authentication or permission errors occur
Integration guard pauses are automatically cleared after a successful integration update via the admin API
All custom actions now first check the integration guard state before proceeding
If a Mimir custom notification fails, it now falls back to email delivery
Added a new configuration option maxAllowedProcessingsPerPixopSourceVideo to help control processing costs
The pixopUserId associated with the Pixop API key is now included in log statements for better traceability
Approval jobs older than one day are now automatically removed
Added a JMX endpoint for manually pausing or unpausing a tenant by ID
Improved exception handling and alerting for more robust operations
When an ingestion job already exists in Pixop for a Mimir item, the existing videoId is returned instead of creating a duplicate
When an equivalent processing job already exists or the configured processing limit per source is reached, a comment is added on the Mimir item instead of starting a new job
Permissions to update a Mimir item are now verified before creating a new version to prevent uncompletable processing workflows
PixopProcessingConflict (e.g. due to insufficient funds or changed processing cost) now results in a descriptive comment on the Mimir item
Improved handling of potential failure scenarios to reduce unhandled exceptions
Metadata updates from the integration no longer overwrite the item’s existing formId with the default
Old versions of custom actions are now deleted selectively based on URL ownership, allowing local/staging versions to coexist with production versions
When setting up a Mimir integration, two user groups are now automatically created if missing:
- pixopIntegration (no permissions; controls who can access the custom actions and read the metadata created by the integration)
- pixopIntegrationApiUser (granted the permissions needed for Mimir API calls)
Deleting a video now ignores derived clips, ensuring the master video can still be removed
Video searches in Pixop are now filtered by both pixopTeamId and defaultProjectId
Default daysToLive for integrations is now 90 days and is automatically extended when new jobs are created

Notes

This release strengthens the stability and observability of the Pixop–Mimir integration ahead of the stable v1.0.0
