Screens show connectivity and content status separately
The Screens list replaces the last heartbeat column with a plain-language status, and adds a Content status column saying whether a screen has what it should be playing.
Screen statuses gain is_online, and screens with nothing scheduled no longer report Inactive
API v4.1 exposes an is_online field with a matching filter, and a reachable, in-sync screen with nothing scheduled now reports Online instead of Inactive on v4 and v4.1.
Typing a status into the Screens search no longer filters by it
The Screens search box no longer matches status words. The status cards above the list filter by status instead.
Failed requests explain themselves in plain language
When something fails in the dashboard, the message you see is a plain sentence about what went wrong, including a clear one for uploads that are too large.
