  • Corrected an issue causing table exports to fail to properly export Metric values in arrays
  • Improved Actionable Alerts and Autotask generated tickets by removing the Liongard "commonID" (the long string value starting with "T") from tickets in the Liongard User Interface, from Autotask tickets, and from Email tickets to eliminate any confusion with Autotask users due to Autotask using a similar identifier for their TaskID
