Changelog
Keep up with the latest updates we’ve made in Workato.
Intermediate Messages & Persistent Tool Call Feedback — Slack
Genies in Slack show end users exactly what's happening — step by step — while processing their requests. Tool calls are paired with real-time, collapsible stream of Genie actions in plain language, replacing confusing internal monologue with clear, contextualized feedback.
- Intermediate Messages Always Shown — Any response-relevant content the LLM returns is surfaced in Slack and Test Mode, ensuring full parity with what the Genie intends to communicate.
- Persistent Tool Call Stream — Intermediate messages are accompanied by real-time streams of the Genie's actions, providing full observability over every step taken in response to a query.
- Collapsible Streams — Users can collapse any Tool Call Stream to reduce visual clutter — it keeps running in the background and can be expanded at any time.
- Human-Readable Tool Labels — Internal tools like KB search and file analysis display plain-language labels (e.g. "Searching knowledge base [My KB] for [query]…") instead of raw function names, ensuring that they are human readable and understandable.

Native Channel Support for Genies — Microsoft Teams
Genies can operate natively in Microsoft Teams channels, completing the channel story started with Slack. Deploy Genies for IT help desks, HR support, and project assistance directly inside the Teams channels where employees already work.
- On-Mention Mode — Genies respond when @mentioned in a channel, configured independently per Genie across standard, private, and shared channels.
- Native Teams Channel Picker — Channels surface as TeamName / ChannelName so builders can easily disambiguate channels with the same name across different Teams.
- Authenticated Actions In-Channel — Workato Identity login uses a Teams-native button → modal flow via Adaptive Cards, ensuring the right person approves every action.
- Full Thread Context & User Attribution — Genies see the entire thread, know who said what, handle files attached in-thread, and auto-summarize long threads for full context parity with DMs.

- Visibility & Control — A centralized pipeline dashboard with object-level monitoring and selective resyncs lets teams isolate and fix issues without rerunning entire pipelines.
- Enterprise Security & Flexibility — Built-in data masking, custom cron-based scheduling, source filtering, concurrency controls, and schema-based destination organization give teams full control over how data moves.
- Workato-Native Orchestration — The PipelineOps trigger automatically kicks off downstream recipes the moment data lands, closing the loop between data movement and action.

Genies, Skills & Knowledge Bases — Now Available Across the Workspace
Genies, Skills, and Knowledge Bases are no longer confined to a single project. Builders can assemble Genies from any asset across the entire workspace — eliminating duplication and the copy-paste workarounds that slowed teams down.
- Cross-Project Skills & KBs — Add Skills and attach Knowledge Bases from any project in the workspace to power Genies wherever they live.
- Cross-Project Events & Tasks — Recipes can send app events to and assign tasks to Genies across different projects, with no project boundary restrictions.
- Cross-Project Knowledge Writes — Knowledge recipes can store data to KBs living in other projects, keeping a single source of truth across the workspace.
- Move Assets Freely — Skills, KBs, and Genies can be moved between projects without breaking any existing links.

Native Channel Support for Genies — Slack
Genies can operate natively in Slack channels — not just DMs. Deploy Genies for IT help desks, HR support, and project assistance directly inside the channels where teams already work.
- Two Channel Modes — Help Desk Mode responds to every message in selected channels; On-Mention Mode responds only when @mentioned, giving builders the right behavior per use case.
- Full Thread Context & User Attribution — Genies see the entire thread, know who said what, and auto-summarize long threads to stay in context.
- Authenticated Actions In-Channel — Workato Identity login via ephemeral messages and user-validated confirmation modals ensure the right person approves every action.
- Builder-Controlled Channel Scope — Builders select exactly which Slack channels a Genie responds in, with a clear error shown if a Genie is added to a non-configured channel.
- Safe by Design — Multi-Genie loop protection, rate limits, race-condition handling, and streaming progress updates keep interactions reliable and transparent.
