Release Notes for Orchestrator

What's New
Designer Cloud Tasks Split into Designer Cloud and Live Query
Designer Cloud tasks are now divided into two task types:
Designer Cloud
Live Query
Existing tasks that use Standard Mode or Cloud Native workflows will continue to remain as Designer Cloud tasks and will run without any changes. When adding a Cloud Native workflow to a new Plan, you should now use the Live Query task. Similarly, if you want to reuse an existing Cloud Native workflow in a new task, it should be selected through the Live Query task. Live Query should be used for Live Query workflows and Cloud Native workflows, while the Designer Cloud task type should be used for Designer Cloud workflows and Standard Mode workflows.
