New Hyperlink form element added to table design

Hyperlink has been added as a new form element type that you can select as a Column setting when designing a table column in Form Composer. You no longer need to use a text box to copy and paste a URL into a browser tab to add the hyperlink to a table.

See Using the Table element and Using the Hyperlink element.

Additionally, when building rules with a Hyperlink type of column, you can set the following conditions:

  • URL is changed

Line numbers automatically added to tasks in Process Composer

To enhance the readability and manageability of process automations (particularly in complex or lengthy workflows), Process Composer now adds line numbers to tasks automatically. With unique line numbers assigned to each task, you can easily reference, locate, and discuss specific parts of the process automation.

Line numbers on tasks

You can use this feature for prompt to automate, debugging, collaborative work, and maintaining clear documentation of the process flow. These visible line markers are consistent with how they work in the Bot editor.
