About This Release

Release 22.0.0 brings a new feature called custom date formatter. It brings a few enhancements to forms, workflow blocks, and dashboard elements, and fixes a few major and minor bugs.

New Feature

Custom date formatter: Custom date formatter helps you add custom date formats in dashboard elements, irrespective of the format in the source spreadsheets.

 

  • For this, open the Datalist Builder page and select Custom Field from the left panel.

 

  • In place of Field ID, type in “vizdate(field name, date format)”.
  • In place of the Field alias, type in the custom field name.
  • Click Supported formats to view the different date formats available.

 

 

  • Click Add. The custom field set is displayed in the Custom fields panel.

 

  • Click Add Template for the field you want to set custom date format. The following pop-up is displayed.

 

  • Specify the custom field name and click Update.

 

 

The date format is now customized in the datalist.

  • If you are adding a date field for Group by, you have the option to group as weekly, monthly, or yearly.

 

Enhancements

  • A new reusable workflow is added to ZEOS to split data values from a URL.
  • Dashboard Object Overlay: Using workflow, you can overlay a dashboard object, that is, display the object as a central pop-up, on clicking an action button on the dashboard. In the workflow, set the following variables and values in the Set Variable block:

 

Variable  :  action

Value     :  overlay-object

 

Variable  :  shortcode

Value     :  shortcode of the object you want to overlay

 

 

 

 

You can also display the object as a slide, for this, add a variable appearance and enter the value as slide.

 

 

  • HTML card overlay: You can also overlay an HTML card using the Set Variable block. For this, add a variable “content” and give the HTML code for the card as the value.

 

 

 

 

To display the card as a slide, add a variable appearance and enter the value as slide.

 

 

 

 

  • In addition to Success and Error messages, Warning and Information messages are also added to the Notification block.

 

 

  • App name is now shown on mouse hover over the Dashboard Edit icon. The tooltip now has the app name and dashboard name.

 

 

  • Multiple object reload: Multiple objects or dashboard elements can be reloaded on triggering a workflow by giving multiple shortcodes in the Set Variable block. Give the Variable name as “shortcode” and enter the shortcodes of the dashboard objects, separated by commas, in the field Value.

 

 

  • When a user has no permission to view an app, instead of showing an error page, you can redirect the user to another page by providing its URL in Tenant Settings.

 

  • User Management blocks: A set of new workflow blocks are added to manage users through workflows. They are Add/Edit User, Get User Details, Get User App List, Deactivate User, Add User to App, Remove User from App, Get App Members List, and Set User Landing Page.

  • Form Unsave Check: On the Form Builder page, if you select the checkbox for Track unsaved changes, and if you edit a form and try to close it without saving, you get a warning message asking whether you want to exit without saving or continue editing.

 

 

  • App script editor lock: At a time, only one user can use the Script Editor for an app from App Settings. When a second user opens the Script Editor for the same app, a warning message is displayed that the first user is using the Script Editor.

 

  • Workflow Tuning Phase 3: Workflow list page shows only 250 workflows, which is a combination of recent, reusable, and tagged workflows.
  • On the backend, styles have been changed from CSS to SCSS.
