Changelog
Keep up with the latest updates we’ve made in Workato.
Share Requests with Additional Participants
You can now share Low Code Workflow Apps requests with additional participants using recipes, giving teams more flexibility and control over request visibility and collaboration.
- Share requests with past approvers, observers, or other stakeholders for ongoing visibility and communication.
- Participants can view request details, comment, and stay informed—without being assigned decision-making tasks.
- Easily add or remove participants as business needs change, supporting better governance for enterprise-scale processes.
Learn more in the Low Code Workflow Apps documentation.
Advanced Project-Level Permissions (RBAC 2.0) – Bulk Migration Tool
The RBAC 2.0 Bulk Migration Tool is now generally available, making it dramatically quicker for enterprises to adopt project-level access control at scale.
- Role consolidation: Automatically detects and consolidates duplicate roles, reducing role sprawl and simplifying ongoing management.
- Collaborator group automation: Instantly creates collaborator groups and assigns the correct permissions, preserving existing access patterns.
- Zero downtime: Ensures migrations occur with no loss of permissions or service interruption.

File and Image Support for Genies
Genies support file and image uploads, expanding beyond text-only interactions to enable richer, more versatile AI agent workflows.
- Enhanced input options – Users can upload images and files directly in Genie conversations for visual context and document-based interactions.
- Broader use case support – Enable workflows across IT support, sales, finance, and other areas where visual assets and documents are essential for processing and decision-making.
- Improved user experience – Provide more natural and complete interactions by allowing users to share the full context needed for their requests.

Test Jobs Now Run Without Restrictions
Test jobs now execute with the same capabilities as live jobs with support for long actions. End-to-end recipe testing is now possible—no need for extra steps. Now teams can confidently validate workflows quickly before launch.
Learn more in the documentation.
Verified User Access for Low Code Apps
Verified User Access (VUA) is now supported for Low Code Apps, ensuring actions in external systems are executed with the identity and permissions of the end user. This enhancement delivers stronger security, personalization, and compliance for all app interactions.
Key Benefits:
- Enhanced Security: Enforces least-privilege access, eliminates shared credentials, and ensures every action is auditable and tied to the authenticated user.
- Individual Authentication: Each user authenticates into applications (e.g., Jira, Salesforce, Namely) with their own credentials.
- Personalized Experience: Users see only their own records, preventing data leakage between roles, teams, and departments.

MCP Servers Now Support Verified User Access
Verified User Access (VUA) is now available for MCP Servers, enabling end users to authenticate with their own credentials when interacting with MCP tools. This delivers enterprise-grade governance and user-level security for AI workflows.
Key Capabilities:
- User-Level Security: Each tool executes with the end user's credentials, ensuring access is always governed by individual permissions.
- Unified Server Setup: Combine recipe functions and API recipes in a single MCP server, eliminating the need for separate API endpoints or collections.
- Flexible Authentication: Configure VUA-enabled tools with Workato Identity Authentication (OAuth 2.0). Credentials are securely stored and reused across tools.
Applications: Enable secure, permission-based workflows such as:
- Jira issue management where users can only view and modify issues they have access to
- Salesforce data retrieval with access limited to assigned accounts and opportunities
- Document processing with user-specific access to applications like Google Docs
Important Limitations:
- API recipes do not support VUA.
- MCP servers must use Workato Identity authentication for VUA; token-based authentication is not supported.

Agent Orchestration is Now Available
Agent Orchestration allows builders to delegate tasks to Genies directly within recipes. When a recipe assigns a task to a Genie, the Genie completes the work and returns its response back to the recipe, which then continues execution with that data. To use this feature, add the "Assign a task to a Genie" action in recipes or skills, specifying the goal, input data, and an optional conversation ID for context chaining.
This capability accelerates the creation of sophisticated workflows, including:
- Autonomous Task Processing: Embed Genies in recipes to handle complex tasks such as invoice-PO reconciliation, contract processing, and deal desk validations.
- Programmatic Genie Access: Perform tasks with Genies through MCP or API endpoints.
- Testing and Evaluation: Run evaluation scenarios against existing Genies and compare their outputs to expected results for quality assurance.
Important Notes:
- Tasks can only be assigned to Genies that don't have any skills with end-user connections or skill confirmations.
- Genies must reside in the same project as the parent recipe or skill.
