Changelog
Keep up with the latest updates we’ve made in Workato.
Have strict security and compliance policies? Restrict your collaborator’s access to their personal workspaces today!
Starting today, we're allowing our users to opt in remove access to their collaborator's personal Workato workspaces so that they'll only be able to build inside of pre-approved workspace. For companies with strict security and compliance protocols, we highly recommend opting in to this security update as this leaves no action taken by your collaborators unlogged and unauditable.
For maximum activity logging, we recommend setting up audit log streaming too!
Error Info Datapills Update
We've added three data pills to the on error step of the error catch block: errored app, errored action, and errored step number.
These new datapills allow you to expand your error handling with conditional logic based on the which part of your recipe encountered an error.
AI by Workato Connector
We announced AI by Workato earlier this year and have been working hard to bring it to everyone. We are excited to announce today that it is available to everyone!
The AI by Workato Connector enables you to leverage the power of generative AI in your workflows to perform actions like:
- Draft emails
- Route tickets
- Extract structured data from text
- Summarize and answer questions source texts
- Analyze sentiment
With great power, comes great responsibility so the connector is currently limited to 100 action invocations per day. Reach out to your customer success representative to request access.
Navigate faster than ever with our Workspace settings and profile settings split!
We've revamped our navigational experience by separating workspace related settings from your personal profile settings. Our new Workspace admin tab is your go-to tab to find all environment related features such AI usage, Secrets Management, Key management, Audit Log Streaming, and more!
The personal profile tab on the other hand houses your personal information such as your name, email, workspace memberships and is the place you go to configure 2FA for your own account!

Batch publish and new API for Workato PubSub
First, the new batch publish action allows you to send a batch of up to 100 events to a PubSub topic within one action. It's a valuable addition the Workato PubSub connector to go alongside the existing batch trigger.
Second, the PubSub API was moved to a totally new microservice resulting in increased throughput and up to a 50% latency decrease. The new API is now available on a new domain, event-streams.workato.com. Note that the old API version is still in operation and that both versions share the same auth tokens, data format, and endpoints to make it simple to migrate to the new API.
Custom webhook responses for custom connectors
With custom webhook responses, Workato Connector SDK developers can now build webhook triggers with custom responses to ensure triggers conform to their destination application.
This allows developers to create real-time triggers to applications like Microsoft, Facebook, and Adobe that require targets to respond in a specific format, making the Workato Connector SDK even more flexible.
This feature is available today for any dynamic webhook triggers created with the Workato Connector SDK.
Community Connectors: What’s new in October
We've released 15 new or updated connectors, including Trustcruit, streamlining recruitment feedback loops, and HeyMarket, enabling batch imports from Salesforce. We've also fine-tuned the SmartRecruiters connector, adding new actions related to job and candidate properties, enhanced the universal GraphQL connector, and more. Read our full update here.
Embedded API Enhancements
Embedded API for Jobs: With this new API, you can now view recipe job information in customer workspaces. Two new endpoints are now available for a specific recipe in a customer's account - one to retrieve a list of that recipe's aggregated job information and one to retrieve one single job's metadata information by its job handle.
Private communities now ready for EU data center
Our Embedded Private Community feature is now available in all of Workato's data centers, including US, EU, JP, SG, and AU data centers. With Private Community, users can choose the apps and recipes customers see as they browse for community recipes.
