Adobe Commerce 2.4.5 Released: 400 Quality Fixes
Major release delivers OpenSearch as default, Apple Pay integration, Adobe IMS authentication and Live Search for B2B.
Adobe Commerce 2.4.5, released 9 August 2022, represents a significant leap forward with over 400 quality fixes.
What's New in 2.4.5
OpenSearch replaces Elasticsearch as default. Apple Pay is natively integrated via Adobe Payment Services. Adobe IMS provides enterprise security. Live Search extends to B2B buyers.
Quality and Security Improvements
The 400+ fixes span accessibility, reCAPTCHA expansion, dependency updates (Composer 2.2, TinyMCE 5.10.2), GraphQL performance improvements, and backward compatibility fixes.
Headless and Composable Benefits
GraphQL schema rebuilds are optimised. Session cookies can be disabled for API requests, enabling edge caching.
PayPal Expansion
PayPal Pay Later expanded to Italy and Spain.
Upgrade Considerations
If on 2.4.4, upgrade is low-risk. Validate GraphQL performance, payment integrations, search engine migration, and extension compatibility.
