Changelog
Keep up with the latest updates we’ve made in Workato.
Expanded conditional logic with If / Else If / Else
This update breaks up the If and Else blocks into separate actions, that can be added and removed independently without having to reset the logic block type. To create a conditional logic block, start by adding an If statement; after the first condition is added, adding an additional action at the same level will give two options: Else If, or Else.
Else If is a new operator, providing flexibility in the conditional logic flows of your recipe.
Updates to time filters on job history and deployment tabs
On the deployments tab, additional time filters are now available for enabling users to see deployments history beyond 30 days.
On the job history page, the time range now defaults to last 30 days.

Plus, we've polished up 13 other connectors like Acumatica, GraphQL and Freshsales with enhancements and bug fixes. Curious about the updates? Take a peek at our full update here.
Addition of RecipeOps trigger for alerting when API client exceeds policy limit
The new Recipe Operations triggers for policy quota and rate limit violations are instrumental in giving administrators visibility and the ability to proactively monitor their client's API usage. With these new triggers, administrators can now receive active alerts about violations, and move quickly to address.
Manage concurrency strategy with new API platform settings
With this new settings menu, you can control how to handle requests during periods of high concurrency - to either queue requests and set queue sizes, or reject requests when the limit is reached. Additionally, our concurrency documentation has been updated to provide more insight on how concurrency works, and how to use these new settings to manage your concurrency strategy.
Enhancements to working with Snowflake’s internal stages
Two new enhancements are available to simplify and streamline working with Snowflake's internal stages:
- Upload to internal stage: Provides a dedicated solution for uploading files to Snowflake's internal stage, simplifying the process of transferring data into Snowflake for further processing or analysis
- Bulk load from stage: Allows for loading files directly from Snowflake's internal stages into a table.
Long actions for databases
Long actions for databases give users the ability to handle long-running SQL queries and exports of datasets. The timeout limit for long actions is 120 minutes. New actions include:
- Run long query using custom SQL, for executing queries that require extended processing times
- Export query result, for bulk extraction from databases, without worrying about row limits
Long actions for databases are currently available for Snowflake, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and Oracle.
Addition of Workato data tables as new data source to query
Queries can now aggregate and transform data from Workato data tables, in addition to applications and files, and fetch the query results as CSV to be used in downstream actions.
Process and transform Excel files using SQL queries
SQL queries can now process and transform Excel files, providing the ability to aggregate and query across both CSV and Excel data types.
