This is a feature release. Sitecore recommends that you upgrade to this release if it includes features that meet the specific needs of your organization. This release contains significant new feature functionality, and we encourage you to evaluate it.
Highlights
Sitecore Experience Platform 9.2.0 includes:
-
Consumption tracking - Sitecore may collect telemetry metrics to help us understand how our customers use the product and develop web sites using the features in the product.
-
The Redis Sessions state provider now uses StackExchange.Redis 2.0.
-
On Sitecore Azure, all the
Appendersare configured the same. There is no distinction between log statements that are written using theSitecore.Diagnostics.Publishinglogger, theSitecore.Diagnostics.Searchlogger, or any other logger. -
In Sitecore Forms, the following required parameters have been added to the
Send Email Campaign Messagesubmit action:- Select email field
- Specify the identification source
- Select the consent field
Forms that use the
Send Email Campaign Messagesubmit action will no longer work. These forms must be updated and the required parameters must be configured. -
Sitecore Forms has added support for Sitecore JavaScript Services (JSS).
-
A new abstraction for the
JobandScheduleclasses has been introduced to support extra integration scenarios. -
The
Rebuild Link databasefunctionality has been improved with the addition of a new provider. It is not enabled by default. For more information, see the Sitecore XP 9.2.0 documentation . -
Overview of all the pages that contain active personalization.
The Experience Optimization application now has a single place where you can find all the personalized pages across each Sitecore instance.
The information displayed includes:- The name of the page that contains personalized components.
- The website that the page belongs to.
- The number of personalized experiences this page contains.
- The number of combinations of personalized components on the page.
- The number of components involved.
- Effect in Test – the highest effect if there is a personalization test running.To see detailed information about each personalized experience, select a page in the list.

Tracker performance has been improved by reducing the number of calls from the tracker to xConnect.

MongoDB 4.x is the required version for xConnect and the Session State Provider.
-
You can now delete a contact and all the information related to it.
-
A new
Indexingsub-role has been added to the Sitecore server roles to simplify the configuration of content indexing.
When you assign theIndexingsub-role to a server role, that role manages content indexing automatically and the other server roles that have not been assigned this sub-role do not index content.
You configure theIndexingsub-role in theweb.configfile and can combine it with the CM and CD roles, for example,ContentManagement, Indexing. -
Sitecore XP now supports YAML serialization.
TheSerializationAPI has been refactored and improved to also support serialization in YAML format. Tree serialization is now available and is similar to what Unicorn does.
Important
The old serialization format will be deprecated and removed in one of the next major releases. -
Sitecore now supports SSL offloading. A new configuration file has been introduced to enable SSL offloading. The
\App_Config\Include\Examples\Sitecore.LoadBalancing.config.examplefile is disabled by default. -
Whitelisting is enabled by default for Azure Search.
Sitecore now indexes a predefined set of fields. This gives full control over the size of the index and overcomes the 1k field limitation in Azure Search. -
The stability of session end event handling has been improved in the
Tracker. -
The performance of processing/aggregation and especially the performance of history rebuild has been improved.
-
Improved integration between EXM and Sitecore Forms
If you use both EXM and Sitecore Forms, the 9.2 release provides some enhanced functionality that empowers marketers.
The default send action for Sitecore Forms now allows marketers to send personalized messages to both known and new contacts. The send action is triggered when a form is submitted and can use data from within the form itself as a result of enhanced support for custom tokens. -
The zip archive of the Sitecore Experience Platform root folder is no longer shipped with the product.
