Extenders can detect changes to resources using the onResourceChanged function in the ZoweExplorerApiRegister class. #2951 Thanks @traeok

  • Fixed issue where creating a new team configuration file could cause Zowe Explorer to crash, resulting in all sessions disappearing from trees. #2906 Thanks @t1m0thyj
  • Addressed breaking changes from the Zowe Explorer API package. #2952 Thanks @zFernand0
  • Fixed data set not opening when the token has expired. #3001 Thanks @KaranP25
  • Fixed an issue where upgrading from Zowe Explorer v1 and selecting "Reload Extensions" causes Zowe Explorer v3 to fail during initialization. #3051 Thanks @traeok
  • Fixed an issue where remote lookup functionality caused the local side of a conflict to be overwritten with the remote contents. #3085 Thanks @traeok
