Target Standard/Premium 25.10.1 (October 22, 2025)
This release contains the following updates and fixes:
Activities
See details
- Resolved a usability issue in the updated UI. Observers can now preview activities using the View Activity option, just like in the legacy UI. (TGT-51741)
- Observer users can now view activity content in the updated UI. Restored visibility for Observer-role users in the updated Activity UI. Previously, Observers were unable to view modifications, offers, and content changes—functionality that was available in the legacy UI. (TGT-53785)
- Approver users can now edit activity goals without editor privilege error. Resolved a permissions issue in the Activity Create UI that blocked Approver-level users from saving changes to advanced goal settings. Affected users received a
403 Forbidden.Resourceerror requiring editor privileges, despite having sufficient access. (TGT-53819)
Audiences
See details
- Multi-Audience Selection Restored in “This Activity Only” Reporting. Resolved an issue in the Activity Create UI that prevented users from selecting multiple audiences under the This activity only section in Goals & Settings. (TGT-53283)
- Audience-based reporting graphs now display conversion data correctly. Resolved an issue in the Reports tab that caused graphs to fail when selecting non-default audiences. While data and confidence metrics were available, the visual graph showed only a solid line, making analysis difficult. (TGT-53769)
- The Targeting UI now clearly indicates excluded audience rules. Resolved an issue in the Targeting section of the Activity Create UI where audience rules set to Exclude were not clearly displayed. This led to confusion when reviewing targeting logic, especially for audiences excluding specific URLs. (TGT-53809)
- Audience definition values now selectable and copyable in the Targeting tab. Resolved an issue in the Activity Create interface that prevented users from selecting and copying audience rule values in the Targeting tab. This functionality was available in the legacy UI but missing in the updated UI. (TGT-53856)
Localization
See details
- Corrected mistranslation of “quote” in zh_CN page editor context. Corrected a contextual translation error in the zh_CN locale where the term “quote” was inaccurately translated as “报价”, implying a commercial price quotation. In the Typography > Heading style > Blockquote section, the intended meaning refers to a formatting element—quotation block—not pricing. (TGT-53841)
- Corrected mistranslation of “quote removed” in zh_CN page editor context. Corrected a translation error in the zh_CN locale where “quote removed” was inaccurately rendered as “移除了报价”, implying a commercial price quotation. In the Typography > Heading style > Blockquote section, the term refers to a formatting element—quotation block—not pricing. (TGT-53843)
- Corrected mistranslation of “quote rearranged” in zh_CN page editor context. Corrected a contextual translation error in the zh_CN locale where “quote rearranged” was inaccurately translated as “重新排列了报价”, implying a commercial price quotation. In the Typography > Heading style > Blockquote section, the term refers to a formatting element—quotation block—not pricing. (TGT-53844)
- Corrected mistranslation of “quote changed” in zh_CN page editor context. Corrected a translation error in the zh_CN locale where “quote changed” was inaccurately rendered as “更改了报价”, suggesting a commercial price quotation. In the Typography > Heading style > Blockquote section, the term refers to a formatting element—quotation block—not pricing. (TGT-53845)
Recommendations
See details
- CSS selector changes for recommendations now save correctly. Resolved an issue in the Activity Create UI that prevented users from updating the CSS selector for recommendation placements. Changes reverted after saving, blocking updates to targeting containers. (TGT-53835)
- Page load event selection now persists in recommendation modifications. Resolved an issue in the Activity Create UI that prevented users from saving changes when switching a recommendation’s event type from View to Page Load. Although the selection appeared successful, it reverted after navigating away, blocking activity publication. (TGT-53957)
Reports
See details
- “Export order details to CSV” now downloads complete data. Resolved an issue in the updated Overview UI that caused the “Export Order details to CSV” option to download empty files, even when valid report data was present. (TGT-53787)
Security
See details
- IMS prefilter added to protect GQL endpoints from cross-org data exposure. Resolved a security vulnerability in the Admin tab affecting the licenseGroups and targetProperties GraphQL endpoints. The issue stemmed from using the JIL API with an admin client token that could be exploited to access cross-org product data. (TGT-53837)
Visual Experience Composer (VEC)
See details
- Authoring stability restored in the Activity Create UI. Resolved an intermittent issue in the VEC UI that caused authoring to fail and links to become unexpectedly clickable, redirecting users away from the page. (TGT-53153)
- Editing restored for saved activities in the Activity Create UI. Resolved an issue that prevented users from editing activities after saving modifications. Affected activities remained stuck in “Applying initial modifications”, blocking further updates and hiding the Cancel button. (TGT-53631)
- The VEC no longer stalls on “Applying initial modifications.” Resolved a performance issue in the VEC that caused long delays when loading experiences with a high number of modifications. Affected users saw the UI stuck on “Applying initial modifications” for several minutes, especially in Experience B scenarios. (TGT-53727)
- The VEC now loads modifications without root elements.
Resolved an issue in the VEC that caused experiences to stall when loading modifications that lacked a clear root element. These modifications previously caused the UI to hang indefinitely on “Applying initial modifications.” (TGT-53799) - Saving changes in activities now works as expected. Resolved a permissions-related issue in the New Create UI that prevented users from saving changes when editing goals and advanced settings in activities. Affected users saw a red error ribbon and a “Forbidden.Resource” message, despite having appropriate access. (TGT-53816)
- VEC UI now preserves experience modifications across views. Resolved multiple issues in the updated VEC that impacted experience development. Modifications were not persisting correctly, especially when using HTML offers or switching between views. (TGT-53825)
- All views now correctly display when a modification spans multiple experiences. Resolved an issue in the Activity Create UI where only one view was shown when a modification was applied across multiple views. The hover tooltip failed to list all associated views, even though the modification was correctly applied. (TGT-53827)
- The VEC no longer intermittently stalls on “Applying initial modifications.” Resolved an intermittent issue in the VEC where experiences failed to load and remained stuck on “Applying initial modifications.” This behavior was inconsistent and sometimes triggered redirect loops or required manual cache clearing. (TGT-53916)
- VEC loading issue could not be reproduced. We investigated a reported issue where the VEC remained stuck on “Applying initial modifications” when editing existing activities. The behavior was suspected to be related to HTML content lacking a parent element. We’ll continue monitoring for recurrence and recommend using structured containers for HTML offers to ensure stability. (TGT-53972)
- Design mode in the VEC no longer behaves like Browse mode intermittently. Resolved an issue in the UI where Design mode intermittently behaved like Browse mode, allowing clickable
<a>links and preventing element selection. This caused the hover box to disappear and blocked modification workflows. (TGT-53136) - Button clicks in Composer mode no longer trigger page redirection. Resolved an issue in the updated VEC UI where clicking a button in Composer mode caused an unexpected redirect to the button’s target URL. This prevented users from editing call-to-action (CTA) elements and disrupted the authoring workflow. (TGT-53137)
- Offer code updates in automated personalization activities now save without error. Resolved an issue in the New Create UI that caused an “Invalid user input” error when updating offer code in Automated Personalization activities. The error blocked users from saving changes, even when the input was valid. (TGT-53586)
- Design mode in the VEC now blocks link navigation for editable components. Resolved an issue in the updated VEC where clickable elements—such as buttons and links—triggered page redirection even while in Design mode. This behavior mimicked Browse mode and prevented users from modifying key components. (TGT-53696)
- “Clicked an element” metric now works without redirect or error. Resolved an issue in the New Create UI that caused unexpected redirects and blank screens when selecting the “Clicked an element” conversion metric. Clicking a button during setup triggered navigation instead of registering the element, resulting in an “element not found” error. (TGT-53817)
- Existing activities no longer get stuck in infinite loading loop during edit. Resolved an issue in the New Create UI where editing an existing activity in the VEC caused the page to remain stuck in an infinite loading loop. This issue did not affect newly created activities and was triggered by pre-existing modifications on the page. (TGT-53913)
- Existing activity pages with modifications now load correctly in the VEC. Resolved an issue in the updated VEC that caused pages to remain stuck in the loading phase when editing an existing activity with saved modifications. New activities loaded without issue, but previously configured activities failed to render. (TGT-53967)
