Changelog
Keep up with the latest updates we’ve made in Workato.
Longer Python connector timeout
Now three times longer, the new timeout of 90 seconds allows builders to perform more complex data transformations with larger files, using the Python connector.
SSO access to support site for data centers in EU and APAC
Users in all non-US data centers (EU, SG, JP) can now access our support site using single sign-on (SSO), making it easier to access Automation Institute, participate in forums, and submit support tickets.
Customizable interface design for Embedded partners
A new theme editor gives Embedded partners more creative reign over their interface design. Apply your brand colors, fonts, and choose between a dark and light theme.
Find more details in its documentation.
New BambooHR triggers and actions
Users can now leverage new BambooHR triggers and actions for HR reports and processing time-off requests.

What’s new with connectors: January edition
Workday
A small improvement has been made to our Workday freeform XML feature. To make things even easier, you can get syntax highlighting when crafting your XML payload.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM
We're finally updating this connector’s name from Microsoft Dynamics CRM to Microsoft Dynamics 365—so you know you're getting the latest version of the software.
BambooHR
To solve the occasional timeout issue with the new/updated employee trigger, we’ve released a reports-based trigger that aligns with BambooHR's recommendations for fetching large volumes of employee data.
Workato Files
You can now uncompress files up to 500 MB— that's a 200 MB increase from the previous limit!
Egnyte
We've introduced streaming uploads, which means we break down your files into smaller chunks and transfer them over. This means you can now transfer large volume files to Egnyte in your recipes, with ease.
Splunk
We are removing support for the Splunk connector since our customers have moved on to other data platforms.
Facebook
Facebook (or should I say Meta?) is deprecating their v12.0 API so we’ve upgraded us to v15.0.

Get real-time status alerts for incidents
We have launched status pages for each region, so users can monitor our systems’ status, check for incidents—and subscribe to email updates.
Configure client access with greater security
With API Clients, users can now grant clients granular role and project-based app access. For greater security, view-once tokens are now available. Read this update’s documentation, or go to the revamped Workspace Access to start configuring.
Parse Excel files using Python
Our Python connector has been updated to support the parsing and handling of Excel files. Use xlrd and openpyxl data for reading or writing to and from Excel files.
SQL Transformations for ETL/ELT (beta)
SQL Transformations is a new connector that allows users to query through large volumes of data from multiple sources, within the recipes. The transformed data can further be loaded to any destination or stored as a file for future use within Workato.
This beta connector release is a major enhancement for ETL/ELT capabilities. To learn more please visit the documentation.
