What's new in Cloud Platform for Qusar

Guidewire Developer Assistants are AI assistants that provide access to curated Guidewire product knowledge, such as product documentation, best practices, and patterns. You can use Developer Assistants with your agentic AI coding tool, such as Claude Code. Guidewire provides a read-only knowledge interface that includes a local MCP server that's installed on a developer workstation and the Developer Assistant service on Guidewire Cloud Platform. You can also use an optional IntelliJ plugin to communicate with your running IntelliJ or Guidewire Studio instance. See the Developer Assistant documentation.

For a demonstration of how you can use Developer Assistants, watch this video:

Guidewire Agentic Framework is an artificial intelligence agent development framework for building intelligent, tool-using agents and multistep workflows on Guidewire Cloud Platform. It helps you build, test, and deploy agents in minutes. Use Agentic Framework to:

• Build custom AI Agents easily with a low-code interface and user-friendly controls.
• Use the best AI model for the job by connecting your choice of regularly updated Large Language Models (LLMs) with zero downtime.
• Instantly access industry expertise with a library of insurance-specific knowledge and tools for your unique workflows.

Extension Layer introduces a modular framework for developing InsuranceSuite extensions independently of the core system. With it, you can efficiently build, manage, and upgrade modular extensions to the core InsuranceSuite applications, while maintaining control and scalability. It accelerates development and reduces upgrade efforts, with a managed framework for building, packaging, and publishing extensions that separate configurations from custom code. For more information, see the Extension Layer documentation.

Agentic FNOL is Guidewire's AI-native, voice-enabled First Notice of Loss (FNOL) intake feature. It allows policyholders to file a claim through a conversational experience, with data flowing directly into ClaimCenter. It includes a Jutro Web Apps template that integrates with ClaimCenter, PolicyCenter, API Gateway, and AI Connect.

Package Manager is now generally available as a Guidewire Cloud Platform app to manage the lifecycle of packages that bundle Guidewire resources created across different applications. With Package Manager, you can assemble, version, and distribute packages combining subpackages from multiple subsystems, such as Integration Gateway apps, InsuranceSuite Extensions, and Jutro Digital Platform apps. It supports production and consumption workflows, enabling Guidewire and partners to deliver packages into customer tenants using Guidewire-managed installation processes.

With Package Manager, you can:

• Create package projects that reference subpackages from supported subsystems and generate immutable, versioned package builds for distribution.

• Deliver the subpackages back to their source subsystems so that development teams can review, edit, and reuse the content in new package projects.

• Configure behavior for delivered packages using Guidewire Settings Vault (Helios) properties, so you can adapt environment-specific settings without changing the package contents.

See the Package Manager documentation.

Document Processing Service is a Guidewire Cloud service that extracts data from unstructured documents, such as PDF, Word documents (DOCX), or images (PNG or JPG). It turns unstructured documents into usable data for submission intake, claims, underwriting, and automation flows. Document Processing Service exposes REST APIs and includes a user interface, Document Extraction Designer, which is available from Guidewire Home.

When you ask to perform any of those tasks, Guidewire Home AI Assistant will request information from you and can execute actions on your behalf when you have the correct authorization to perform those tasks. See the "Guidewire Home AI Assistant" section in the Guidewire Home documentation.

In the CI/CD Manager API, you can now set a timezone in which the Server Tests for your builds will be run in TeamCity. For details, see Configure timezone for Server Tests.

With the SCIM Connect and Access Management integration, you can configure automatic user access management through your Identity Provider (IdP). In the Access Management app, you can create group mappings that link the following elements:

• A group in your IdP.

  You need to use your custom IdP groups. Don't use groups created by Guidewire.

• A role in Access Management.
• Context, which is either a specific star system or all star systems.

After you create a group mapping, users in the specified IdP group are automatically assigned or unassigned the corresponding role in Access Management based on the context.

For details, see:

• "Manage group mappings" in the Access Management app documentation
• "Group mappings" in the Access Management API documentation

In the Build Promotion app, you can unapprove the InsuranceSuite builds that require a manual sign-off. You can only unapprove a build that you previously approved. An unapproved build needs to be approved before it can be promoted. You can approve the build again or it can be approved by another user.

For more information, see Sign off builds.

You can now perform a rollback on production planets that are connected to Cloud Data Access (CDA).

For details, see:

• Manage InsuranceSuite rollback
• Perform a rollback

To ensure stability of backups, Guidewire recommends that you use the snapshot backup mechanism for InsuranceSuite databases larger than 250 GB. For InsuranceSuite databases smaller than 250 GB, you can use either backup mechanism.

For details, see Backup mechanisms.

The CI/CD Manager API now includes a exposeRenderedCodeCoverageReport parameter that exposes the JaCoCo code coverage reports in HTML and XML format. When you set this parameter to true, the reports are exposed in a coverage.zip file in the list of artifacts in TeamCity.

For details, see Configure code coverage.

In the Access Management app, you can now assign the following new roles to users:

• Builder

  As Builders, users can manage roles and group-to-role mappings but can't manage user assignment to roles.

• Auditor

  As Auditors, users can only view roles, mappings, and assignments.

For details, see Predefined roles in Access Management.

For more information, see Calculation methods.

Guidewire Functions now appear in the list of Guidewire Cloud Platform services that are assigned a minor criticality level. You can check if the service is operational on the Guidewire Cloud Status page. For details, see Cloud Platform services.

For details, see the Software Supply Chain Integrity documentation.
