About Bloomreach
A fortnightly version train spending its releases on governance, compliance and Loomi accuracy
Bloomreach Engagement ships on a numbered version train, roughly one release per fortnight, each bundling a few platform changes with a standing mobile SDK update. The last five versions (1.308-1.312) cover a link-shortener pattern change, faster Performance dashboards, an approval workflow for scenarios, accuracy work across Loomi Analytics, and a message archive for compliance. Each release note is a short summary tied to an explicit release window rather than an itemised changelog.
