Pimcore Platform Version 2025.3: Pimcore Studio Documents Arrived, TinyMCE Returns, Copilot Expands, Performance Accelerates

Pimcore Platform Version 2025.3 is available this October—with a strong focus on editorial comfort, AI flexibility, and day-to-day performance. For the first time, documents are supported in Pimcore Studio as a preview—a major highlight. In addition, the Platform Version 2025.3 brings the much-requested TinyMCE editor back to Professional and Enterprise Edition, broadens our Copilot capabilities with OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions, extends Generic Data Index coverage, and delivers dozens of quality and reliability improvements across the stack.

Highlights at a Glance 

• Studio pre-release including documents: Many classic features including a first preview of the documents are now available in Pimcore Studio to simplify the transition. For the first time ever, all core Pimcore data types — data objects, assets, and now documents — are available in Studio. 

• TinyMCE 7 (Professional and Enterprise Edition): The familiar, full-featured WYSIWYG experience—now easily updatable via Composer. 

• Copilot over Chat Completions: Plug-and-play text generation with providers supporting the OpenAI-compatible API (OpenAI, Hugging Face Inference Endpoints, RunPod, and more). 

• Generic Data Index (GDI) enhancements: Indexing performance improvements, unified indexing for more Pimcore bundles and custom data types. 

• Additional Improvements and Housekeeping: A broad set of refinements and housekeeping updates make the platform faster, cleaner, and more reliable in everyday use. 
  

TinyMCE Bundle (TinyMCE 7) 

TinyMCE is back for Professional and Enterprise Edition customers. We have sat together with Tiny Inc and made a deal to bring back TinyMCE 7 as a separate bundle so teams can enjoy the best-in-class WYSIWYG experience with straightforward updates via Composer. For most projects, migrating from past setups is smooth; if you implemented custom extensions, please follow TinyMCE’s upgrade notes to ensure continuity. Outcome: faster onboarding for editors, fewer workarounds, and proven authoring experience that stays current over time.

Copilot Text Generation via OpenAI-Compatible Chat Completions 

Copilot now supports AI text generation through the widely adopted Chat Completions API format. This means you can choose from multiple LLM providers—OpenAI, Hugging Face Inference Endpoints, RunPod, and others—switch with minimal configuration, and tap into a growing ecosystem built around this standard. Outcome: flexible procurement, faster experimentation, and easy portability across vendors. 

Enhancement of Generic Data Index (GDI) 

The generic-data-index-bundle has received a major upgrade, bringing noticeable improvements in both performance and stability. Some of the key enhancements include: 

• Asynchronous reindexing – Elements that need reindexing are now collected asynchronously during save and update actions, making the process more efficient. 

• Smarter batch processing – Handling of create, update, and delete operations has been streamlined. This not only improves scalability but also minimizes the number and length of locks required on the queue table. 

• Faster ID lookups – Retrieving IDs from the queue has been optimized for speed and reliability. 

GDI now also integrates with more Pimcore bundles and their custom data types, including Data Quality Management, Frontend Permission Toolkit, Ecommerce Framework, Personalization, and Newsletter. This brings more of your operational data into a unified index—improving search, visibility, and downstream automation across solutions. 

These updates enhance the indexing workflow's robustness and scalability, ensuring smoother performance under heavy workloads.

Additional Improvements and Housekeeping 

Overall, this release feels faster and smoother in everyday use. Interfaces are clearer and easier to work with, updates run more reliably with fewer interruptions, and routine cleanup now happens automatically to keep everything stable behind the scenes. You’ll also receive clearer signals when something needs attention, allowing teams to resolve issues quickly and stay focused on their work.  

More Familiar Features—Now in Pimcore Studio 

To make Studio the natural hub for daily work, we’ve brought over a long list of classic UI features, which will be shipped in a pre-release together with Platform Version 2025.3. 

We’ve been working on our new game-changing interface, Pimcore Studio, for quite some time — and very soon it will become the default way of working with Pimcore. 

Today marks a big milestone: for the first time ever, all core Pimcore data types — data objects, assets, and now documents — are available in Studio.  With this release, Pimcore Documents (still in preview) can be experienced for the very first time. 

Why is this such a significant step? Now, Pimcore editors can access the vast majority of Pimcore’s core functionalities directly in the easy, smart, and beautifully redesigned interface of Pimcore Studio.  This is more than just an update — it’s a true game-changer for how users work with Pimcore. 

The following is a non-exclusive list of new features: 

• First preview of documents 

• Perspective editor 

• Test mails and sent mail log 

• Recycle bin restore 

• Website settings & redirects 

• Document types 

• Translations 

• Notes & events 

• Reports 

• My profile 

• Enhanced grid filtering 

• Menu refinements 

We invite all users and partners to explore the new interface and experience its powerful capabilities firsthand. Outcome: easier adoption and less context switching while retaining the reliability you know. 

Pimcore Studio – Next Steps 

Over the course of 2025, Pimcore Studio 1.0 will be released, enabling editors to perform all basic tasks related to data objects, assets, and documents. According to your previously communicated roadmap plan, administrative tasks are not included in this release and will instead be shipped in Q1 2026, moving toward full feature parity with Admin UI Classic. We have also extended public support for Platform Version 2024.4 until the release of Platform Version 2025.4. LTS support for this version remains unchanged. 

Why This Release Matters 

• For content teams: TinyMCE 7 restores a familiar editing flow with enterprise-grade stability and easy updates. 

• For architects & developers: OpenAI-compatible Copilot unlocks provider choice and reduces lock-in, while GDI coverage and performance work streamline implementation and runtime efficiency. 
• For everyone moving to Studio: It's about experiencing the full editorial power, data objects, assets and documents are now available in a modern, consistent interface.
