Automation Workspace
| What's new |
|---|
| Improved usability of the
Assistant utility The Bot editor, API editor, and the Template editor are now enhanced to remember the last position of the Assistant utility before you exit the editor. This improves the usability of the Assistant as you no longer have to move the Assistant to the right of the editor to view the Actions panel each time you open the bot within the editor. |
| Auto-purge of historical activities
(Service Cloud case ID: 01255033, 01753613, 01764385, 01907781,
01951958, 02004210) Historical activities that are older than 30 days are automatically purged (deleted). |
Automation Co-Pilot for Business Users
| What's new |
|---|
| Select a user group in
a Process task in Process Composer As a Bot Creator or Citizen Developer, you can assign a user group based on role or team when creating a new Process task in Process Composer. If you do not designate a user group, the default user group will be used in the Process task. |
| Move a
process automation between folders in Process Composer As a Bot Creator or Citizen Developer, you can move a new process automation from one folder to another within a private workspace. |
| Assign
custom roles with more granular permissions in Process Composer and Automation Co-Pilot As an administrator, you can create custom roles with greater granular permissions to adhere to your organization's security directives and align with principles or least privileges. You are no longer required to use the system-defined roles provided by applications. You can create roles and assign permissions related to tasks, requests, and processes. Process Composer roles and permissions Administrators can also customize roles to more specific functionality in Automation Co-Pilot (for example, Teams, extensions, and bots). Feature permissions for a role All privileges granted to existing user-created roles persist, as expected. The new permission model continues to be based on product behavior. Permission options are simply offered across a broader scope to include product developments since the previous model. |
| What's changed |
|---|
| Improved
image file upload The experience has been improved for selecting and uploading a file to the image element when creating a form. Now the thumbnail of the image element is interactive, and users can click to open the file finder for selection or simply drag the file into the image element on the canvas. This improvement is in addition to the existing method of selecting files in the configuration panel. |
| Favorite
automations are now persisted on the server
side Within Automation Co-Pilot (both Embedded and Assistant), automations selected as favorite will persist across browser sessions, to display as a filtered group for quick access when the user selects the Show favorites only check box. When showing favorites, the automation list will default to display only selected favorites until the user clears the Show favorites only check box. Previously, if cache was cleared or the user used a different browser, all favorite selections would need to be made again. Additionally, favorite was previously referred to as pinned. Show favorites only view is no longer default When navigating to the automation list page, the Show favorites only check box is unselected and all automations are displayed until the option is selected. Previously, the Show favorites only check box was selected by default, displaying only favorite automations. |
Document Automation
| What's new |
|---|
| RegexExtract
action in validation rules You can now use the RegexExtract action in validation rules for table and form fields. When a value is extracted from a document, this feature allows users to apply a regular expression (regex) to the extracted value to retrieve a specific substring. It extracts only the first match found in the value based on the regex pattern. Validation rules in Document Automation | Use regex extract action in validation rule |
IQ Bot
| What's changed |
|---|
| Deprecation of IQ Bot from
Community Edition
The IQ Bot is removed from Control Room for Community Edition users. The Train other documents button on the tab is removed as part of this deprecation. |
