Release Date: 28/02/2024

About This Release

 

Release 31.0.0 brings new functionalities and improvements to HTML cards, dashboards, workflows, and publishing of patch releases. It also fixes bugs related to spreadsheet import, file upload, action buttons, dashboard widgets, and more.

 

New Features

 

1. Edit access to the dashboard limited to one user at a time: When one user is editing a dashboard, another user cannot edit the same dashboard until the first user finishes editing and clicks the button Finish editing on the dashboard. While the first user is editing the dashboard, the second user gets a pop-up message that the first user is editing the dashboard.

 

 

 

2. New attribute “viz-dom” to manage buttons in HTML cards and datalists: You can use the attribute “viz-dom” to display or hide buttons based on different conditions in HTML cards and datalists. The operators supported are “greater than”, “less than”, “equal”, “no equal”, and “contain”. The syntax is as follows:

 

<viz-dom data=”{field}” operator=”gt” value=”50″>

  <button class=”uiAction ds-btn ds-btn-primary ds-btn-xl”>greaterThan</button>

</viz-dom>

 

 

3. Importing workflows with a common prefix while installing an app as framework: while installing an app as framework multiple times in the same tenant, the workflows were getting duplicated. With this feature, you can now import the workflows with a common user-defined prefix. When you download an app as a framework, you can choose to not import workflows or you can choose to import workflows with a prefix so that you can differentiate the workflows that get imported.

 

 

If you uncheck the checkbox, you get the option to add a prefix to the workflows, and then continue.

 

 

4. Managing Object DNA in reflexive workflow: In the Form Rule Block, you now have the option to manage child grid fields. You can select the child grid and show or hide the child grid fields using the Form Rule Block.

 

 

5. Option to manage forms connected to grid and datalist: Normally when you click a row in a grid or a datalist, a form in edit mode will be displayed. Now you can choose to display or not display the form on row click. You have a new option “On row click” in grid builder and datalist builder for which if you choose “Open form”, you get an editable form opened with all the data corresponding to the selected row. If you choose “None”, no form is displayed on row click. The form gets opened only on clicking the Add button to add a new record.

 

 

 

6. Option to select patches while publishing an app: to move patches from testing instance to production instance, you had to manually select the components while guardrailing. Now, while publishing an app, you have the option to select the required patches to be published. The components of the selected patches will be automatically selected while guardrailing. This simplifies the process of release from testing to production instances. You can find the list of patches on clicking the button Rapid Release.

 

 

 

You can see that when the required patches are selected, the corresponding components of the patches are automatically selected while guardrailing.

 

7. New and improved HTML card builder: You now have an improved version of the HTML Card Builder built using React. There is a change in the look and feel of the HTML card builder with improved functionalities. There is a coding panel and a preview panel and two kinds of layouts for these panels.

 

 

You can write the code and call the variables or fields from the coding panel itself. You can search for internal variables and use them directly in the source code.

 

 

As you scroll down, you can find the Settings option. Under Settings you can find the Where, Group by, Order by, and Limit by options.

 

 

You have a new option Custom Rules that enable you to get an output based on conditions. That is, it enables you to execute a certain code if a condition is true and execute a different code if the condition is false.

Click + New to add a custom rule. A sliding panel is displayed on the right where you can give alias names and conditions.

 

 

8. Session fixes: When a user logs in, a session id is generated in the backend. This id rekeys every 5 minutes. This prevents the possible misuse of session id and platform access by unauthorized users because the key that is generated expires after 7 minutes.

 

Bug Fixes
