September 2023 – released Sitecore Experience Platform 10.1.3 rev. 009558
This is a product update. Sitecore recommends that you upgrade to this release to apply the fixes and improvements implemented since the initial release of this product version.
Highlights
Sitecore Experience Platform 10.1.3 includes:
- The media item duplication logic has been updated to resolve issues when deleting duplicates of a media item that shared the same blob. Now, duplicating a media item creates a duplicate of a blob. After upgrading to this version, you must run the
/sitecore/admin/duplicates.aspxadmin page to ensure all duplicate media items in your solution refer to a blob copy, not a shared one.
