In-app communication now available in Workflow Apps

Users can now use comments to communicate about requests in the Workflow apps portal. This addition enables users to collaborate on requests without leaving the apps portal. Comments are displayed alongside the request status changes, providing an easy view to see how a request is progressing.

Comments work out of the box and do not require any configuration. Each comment also creates an email notification for users involved in the particular request.

Released

Page Data Pills and Conditionals in Workflow Apps

Users can now build dynamic pages in Workflow Apps by using data pills in their pages. Available data includes:

  1. User data (e.g. user name, user id, and email)
  2. Request data (e.g. request stage, request created by user, request data columns)
  3. Page data (e.g. any editable fields on the current page)

Data pills can be used to create conditional logic in pages just like with recipes. This enables dynamic functionality like:

  • Personalizing page messaging to the current user
  • Showing/hiding certain components based on page data (e.g. display an input field if other is selected in drop down)
  • Constructing dynamic URLs with embedded data from current page
  • Making page components required or readonly based on other answers within a page

Workflow Apps now includes ability to update a linked table within request

With the new table component you can display, create, and update records of a linked data table while working with a request. This unlocks use cases like SKU/inventory updates, expense reimbursements, and others where you need to create or update multiple items in a single request.

This page component is now available for all workspaces with Workflow Apps enabled.

New App Management Experience for Workflow Apps

We have made our Workflow Apps so much easier to create from scratch and manage with the new App view! Everything related to a workflow app now resides in a single project tab: stages of a workflow process, related app pages, data layer for the app, and automation recipes with business logic.

The updates include:

  • New App View that is available for all your existing and future app-based projects
  • Configurable tabs to show additional information for the app or design alternative request pages
  • Selection of a page became optional in Workflow Apps connector actions since pages are now directly assigned to specific workflow stages
Released
