[PRODUCT UPDATE] ADVANCE WORKFLOW,FORMULA IN APP SHEETS

We’re pleased to announce new features/changes on Studio (staging) published in this week. Following are the details about these features:

New Feature

• Workflows

• • Branching has been introduced in Workflows. You can now create multiple branches in the workflow to execute tasks in parallel.
  • Create a branch by clicking on + icon while creating a task. Once a branch is created, you can add as many tasks as required under a branch
  • You can put conditions on a branch to execute it (similar to the execution conditions for a workflow task).
  • Next task to the entire Branch section will only execute when all the branches of the section are executed.
  • There should be at least two branches in the Branch section.
  • API registration has been introduced. You can go to the APIs tab on the home screen to register APIs in Studio

• Sheets

• New UI for Sheets listing

• • Apps Specific sheets Listing.
  • The user can add sheets Globally or in Specific app.
  • Archive sheet option.
  • Formula box introduced in list type columns. Options can be populated using formula box while creating a new column of list type column i.e. either Checkbox, Radio, Dropdown, Multiselect, Keyword or Select Bar.

• • Paste options data in formula box in list type columns (Note – Currently paste works for static options)

• Builder

• • Submit Log – This option (a toggle button) appears when you click on Create Empty Screen or on Control-Sheet Mapping modal for a Submit button. It can be seen on the left side of the top bar.

Changes/Modifications

• Validation on focus out – Validations check will be applied once the focus moves out of the control
• Map with existing sheet i.e. map controls of a screen to an existing sheet option on Control-Sheet Mapping modal has been removed
• Conditional Visibilities has been renamed to Rules. You can see a new tab for Rules below Controls tab on the leftmost pane of the builder.
• Workflow button removed from Submit button and moved to right side of the top bar
• Shortcut to Validations – Now you can go to Validations modal for control by clicking on the Validations Shortcut – ‘V’, which is placed next to the Formula ‘F’ on the screen.
• Controls are categorized into FORMS & VISUALS in the Control’s pane
• Preview button has been changed to a play icon

Fixes

• Workflow
  • Keywords were populating incorrectly in Workflow – Fixed. A user needs to specifically map controls with Sheet column to use them properly in Workflow.

• Sheets
  • Invalid date getting stored in Date
  • In case of multi-select options, while creating options same value was getting assigned to different options
