New Features and Enhancements
Intelligent Archive and Rehydration is now Available
The DryvIQ Platform now offers a new Intelligent Archive and Rehydration feature. This feature enables you to archive files as part of a content scan, and you can choose to add a placeholder file that informs users that the file has been archived and provides the option to restore the file if needed. As part of this new feature, DryvIQ included the following enhancements:
- New Archive Action: A new Archive action is available when creating an action set.
- Archive Scan Configuration: Action configuration for a content scan using the archive action allows you to create archive plans that determine the archive location, whether DryvIQ should create a placeholder file, and whether users can restore archived files through the placeholder file. Once you create an archive plan, you can reuse it for other content scans as needed.
- New Archive Migration Job Type Filter: Archive plans display with the other migration jobs in the Jobs grid. You can filter the grid using the new “Archive plan” job type.
- New Archive Plan Content Filter: The Filter panel on the Content page has a new Archive Plans filter you can use to view only content for specific archive plans or content not associated with any archive plans.
- Rehydrate Feature: Users can rehydrate archived files using the URL in the placeholder file (based on configuration) or by using the Rehydrate link available on the Content page in the DryvIQ Platform.

|
- New Archive and Rehydration Columns: The Content page now includes columns to report on archive and rehydration details. The Metadata section contains five columns for Archive information and one column for the rehydration date.
- New Reporting Properties: New catalog properties enable custom reporting on archive and rehydration through the Custom Insights.
New Flagged Status In File Properties
|
A new Flagged column is available in the File Properties category of the Content grid. It shows a green check mark if the file has been flagged and a dash if the file has not been flagged. If an error or exception occurs during a content scan, DryvIQ will retain any information it was able to collect before the error and write it to the catalog. DryvIQ will then set the Flagged property. Note the following behavior based on the scan type and scan configurations:

Not Seeing the new Flagged column?
If the Flagged column isn’t showing, use the Edit columns button to ensure the column is set to display.
Improved Subfile Reporting
An update was made to archive file type scanning to ensure properties from the subfiles are available on the main archive file to improve searching, filtering, and applying actions.
Updated Export Limits
The export limit for Content and Accounts has been increased to one million records.
Microsoft Term Store Tags Available for Metadata Action
An update was made to make Microsoft Term Store tags available when configuring the scan actions for the “Apply Metadata” action. When you select a Managed Metadata SharePoint column from the Property list, the Value list now displays the associated Term Store tags for selection.
ShareFile Connector Improvements
The ShareFile connectors (Citrix ShareFile My Files and Folders and Citrix ShareFile Shared Folders) were updated to support external accounts. When creating a user map between ShareFile and another connector that supports external users, the Retain external users option is now available to specify if you want to retain external users and how you want DryvIQ to resolve external accounts.
Fixes
- Updated logic to ensure DryvIQ only performs actions on the main archive file.
- Fixed the scan progress value displayed in the UI.
- Fixed keyword detection in CSV and Microsoft Excel files.
- Fixed a query issue causing actions not to trigger.
- Fixed a bug that prevented disabling action flows for duplicated scans.
CLI Updates
Updating the DryvIQ Platform does not update the Command-line Interface (CLI). If you use the CLI, you should update it when you update to a new version of DryvIQ to ensure the CLI is current. Run the CLI install command to update the CLI.

New Features and Enhancements
New DryvIQ Actions
The following actions are now available in the Action Sets Editor:
- Remove Shared Links: Remove shared links that grant access to the item. You must select whether to remove all links, internal links, or external links.
- DryvIQ Persistent Label Classifier: Assign a custom DryvIQ label to Microsoft Office XML file types. The label will move with the files, regardless of platform.
- Redaction: Redact sensitive information from TXT, CSV, PDF, XLSX, DOCX, and PPTX files. You can customize the redaction text that displays or use the default redaction text, which replaces the redacted content with asterisks.
- Apply Metadata: Add specific metadata to a file. This action can be set to be skipped for platforms that don’t support metadata.
- MPIP Sensitivity Label: Apply a Microsoft Pureview Information Protection label.
- Assign Migration: Assign items to an intelligent migration job. When creating a content scan that uses this action, you can either configure an existing intelligent migration job to move the content or create a new one as part of the configuration
Archive Scanning
DryvIQ now supports scanning archive files. If archive scanning is enabled for a content scan, DryvIQ will scan the contents of the archive and report on the contents as part of the scan results.
When viewing scan results, you can filter the content results to include subfiles, and you can refine the contents to display only the archived files.

6.0 (April 25, 2025)
DryvIQ Platform 6.0 is now Available!
DryvIQ is committed to providing best-in-class software that delivers outstanding features and performance to our customers. That’s why we are excited to announce the availability of DryvIQ Platform 6.0. In addition to new architecture to improve task handling, DryvIQ Platform 6.0 includes multiple new features that offer even more ways to analyze, evaluate, and act on your unstructured data. Learn more below.
Before Updating!
DryvIQ Platform version 6.x uses a new architecture. To ensure a successful upgrade, contact your DryvIQ Consulting Services representative or DryvIQ Customer Support for assistance.
New Architecture
New Event-Driven Architecture Using Apache Pulsar
DryvIQ Platform 6.0 introduces a distributed, event-driven job architecture using Apache Pulsar. As events are triggered in the platform, worker services process them independently. Small worker nodes are used for simple tasks to conserve resources, while GPU-powered nodes are used for more complex functions that utilize advanced features. This new architecture improves performance and reliability for tasks like repository scanning, document analysis, and task management.
New Features and Enhancements
New Navigation
DryvIQ has updated the platform navigation to improve workflow. The navigation menu now contains three categories: Results, Scans, and Manage.
|
Results This category contains all the tools you can use to view the results of your content scans. It includes:
Scans In this category, you create your Content Scans and access all the tools needed to complete Migrations.
Manage This category allows you to manage your setup information, which is required to set up your DryvIQ Platform for use. It includes:

DryvIQ Actions
The DryvIQ Platform now includes actions. You customize actions by creating an Action Set, which allow you to use a single action or a set of actions.
- Modify Permissions: Modify the permissions for specified groups and/or accounts. This action can be set to be skipped for platforms that don’t support permissions.
- Remove Permissions: Remove the specified permissions from a group or account.
- Delete: Delete the items.
- Delay: Delays any additional actions on the file for the specified time.
- Approval: Flag the file for manual approval. Upon reviewing the file, a user must accept or reject any subsequent action on the file. If additional actions follow the approval action in an action set, those actions depend on the approval action workflow to trigger. Approving an item allows the action set to continue. Denying the item will halt all additional actions in the action set.
You can add Action Sets to content scans or apply them to individual items manually. DryvIQ will execute the actions against the content in the order specified in the Action Set.

Advanced Filters
You can now use advanced filters to create complex filter logic using rules and groups. These filters are available throughout the DryvIQ Platform and provide more refined results for content analysis and management.
Custom Account Attribute Groupings
The Accounts now supports importing custom attributes you can use to categorize your accounts and groups based on criteria relevant to your business and use cases. Learn more about custom attributes here.
