Get the latest version
If you already have Otto you can get the latest version from your account. If you are new to Otto, you can download the free version or buy a license.
Linux support
Otto now runs on everybody's favorite server platform, Linux.
Application logging
Application Logging lets you write to a server-side log that you can see using Otto's web console. This is a great way to do things like debug scripts that are running on the server, or log events that are otherwise not visible to a user.
Webhook receiver
Otto's Webhook Receiver makes building data integrations easier by removing much of the friction around receiving data from webhooks and web services. It is also a great way to upload data from an offline FileMaker Go app.
Extensible developer REST API
You can write your own REST API endpoints that trigger javascript functions on your server. This is a great way to do things like integrate with other services or further automate developer operations tasks.
OAuth with Google Groups
Experimental — If your organization uses Google Workspace for email and Groups, you can use Google Group Membership to manage users for your FileMaker applications. for more information.
Improvements
Migration speed
The migration process has been improved in two ways. First, opening and closing files is significantly faster; sometimes, twice as fast. Second, the backup process is nearly instant in a single-disk configuration. Otto can detect whether the migration backup location is on the same disk, and if it is, it will now simply move the file instead of copying it.
Disk usage
If you are using a single disk for your FileMaker Server, you will need approximately 30% less disk space than before
