April 2025 — Altinn/altinn-correspondence: Delivered Attachment Download Tracking with Idempotent Processing. Added AttachmentsDownloaded status and an idempotency key mechanism to prevent duplicate outbound activities to Dialogporten, backed by tests. Also fixed outbound event emission to ensure only the first event is sent to Dialogporten, eliminating duplicates. These changes enhance reliability, auditing, and traceability of attachment-related actions, reducing risk and supporting compliance. Commits: 723c24b023e982f5875bbdf4eb96c7b7628a8ab7; f99dc9c0f4dc17d3b7ca0e392381231fda07f6b2.
