Updates & Bug Fixes
Release Date: February 2025:
CX Manager
Case Management
- We added the ability to control+click and command+click on 1) Cases in the Cases list 2) Chat tiles in the top nav bar and 3) the main navigation list. Doing this will open the new screen in a new browser tab without impacting your current screen.
- We added the ability to merge cases from the Case edit screen. Click on View All on the Cases section of the Customer panel and from there you can select your Cases to merge. This will make it easier to quickly find related or duplicate Cases for a customer and merge them together without complex filters.
- We fixed a bug where some picklists were retaining hidden values after a user would enter an invalid value into a required picklist field and then delete the value. Now when a user removes a value from a picklist it will properly clear the value and the field will search as expected.
- We fixed an issue where the type ahead text in a picklist field would sometimes get stuck causing the picklist to not show all the values even after the text was removed. Now deleting the text in a picklist will reset the fitlers and show all available options.
- We fixed an issue that caused Tags and Categories to continue to show on the Tags and Category fields on a Case after a Team was deleted from the Tag in Settings. Now when you delete a Team that is related to a Tag, that Tag will no longer show as an option on the Tags picklist on the Case Edit screen for users on that Team.
- We fixed an issue where the Cases Selected count that shows at the top of the Cases list when you select multiple Cases would sometimes show an incorrect count. Now when you select multiple Cases on one or more pages it will always show the proper count both before and after merging Cases.
- We fixed an issue where some Cases would periodically fail to display Events and would have improper access controls.
Customers
- We fixed an issue where custom URL fields that were accessed from the Customer screen were not opening the links in a new tab when clicked. Now when you click on the URL in a URL field type on the Customer Location panel, it will open in a new browser tab.
- We updated the functionality of custom product fields so when you add a product from the Add Product list it is saved to that field rather than only saving to the list of available products for that Location.
- We fixed a bug where custom product picklist fields would peridodically disappear from the Location Layout when accessed from the Customer Panel on the Case edit screen.
- We fixed an error that was being thrown when pressing the Add Product button on Product fields on a Location.
Communications
We fixed an issue where sending an email to an email integration inbox with multiple email addresses in the To: field would only show the the email integration inbox email address and all other email addresses in the To: field would not be displayed. Now all email addresses in the email’s To: field will show on the Communication Panel To: field.
Journeys
- We added the ability to cancel any open Action in a Journey from the timeline view so you can close out any Action that is stuck or no longer needs to be completed. Canceling a Task will also now post an event to the events timeline to show the date and time that the Task was canceled.
- We added the ability to force complete an Action in a Journey from the timeline view so you can mark any Action as Complete if it was completed out of order.
- We added functionality to automatically close out any outstanding actions on a Journey when the Journey Closed Out function is used from the timeline. This ensures that that there will be no orphaned Tasks after a Journey is manually closed.
- We updated the icons in the timeline for Steps and Stages that contain Actions that are skipped. Previously it would show the Stage and Step as skipped when they contained a skipped action. Now they will continue to show as In Progress or Completed.
Knowledge
We fixed a bug where the Load More Events button was not showing at the bottom of the Events tab on Knowledge Articles.
Connectors & APIs
- We added Zoho and IRIS CRM to our list of connectors. We will discuss the details of each one in a future post.
- We fixed an issue where changing the name of a Connector was not properly saving.
Messenger (Web & SDK)
- We added rich text formatting for AI agent responses in Messenger to make long responses easier to read (line breaks, lists, clickable links).
- We disabled in-app surveys for canceled cases to prevent incorrect or accidental ratings.
- We added additional retry logic when opening Messenger in case chat ever gets stuck loading messages.
- We added a configuration option to Messenger to show or hide a button that allows customers to immediately route a conversation to a human while they are chatting with an AI agent.
- We fixed an issue where timestamps were showing an incorrect time. Now all timestamps in Messenger will show based on the user's computer timezone.
AI Agents
- We enabled auto case creation and team assignment when routing from an AI agent to a human.
- We added multilingual capabilities with auto language detection to our conversational AI agents.
If you are interested in testing our the beta of our conversational AI agents, please let us know! We would be happy to set one up for you, trained on your knowledge.
Reporting & Dashboards
We updated the default timezone for dashboards to display date/times in PST. If you want the default timezone updated for your organization's dashboard, please reach out to the Customer Success team.
Admin & Settings
- We added a Teams field to restrict Tag and Category acess to the add and edit screens for Tags and Categories in Settings. Leaving this field blank will make the Tag or Category available to all users.
- We added a new Manage Tokens permission to break Tokens access apart from the Edit Organization Settings Permission. This new permission will automatically be given to all users with an Admin Role and can be manually added to your custom packages from Settings > Roles & Permissions > Select Role > Edit Permissions > Administration Settings.
We updated the Edit Organization Settings Permission to control fewer options in Settings. The details are described below:
- The Manage Teams permission now controls showing/hiding the Teams navigation item in Settings (even with Edit Organization Settings off)
- The Manage Users permission now controls showing/hiding the Users navigation item in Settings (even with Edit Organization Settings off). Note that you will need to disable both "Manage Users Passwords" and "Manage Users" to have "Users" nav completely removed from Settings.
- The View Reports permission controls showing/hiding the Reports nav item on the main Nav list (even with Edit Organization Settings off). Note that you will need to disable both "View reports" and "Manage Reports" to have "Reports" option fully removed from main navigation.
- The Create New Knowledge Bases permission now controls showing/hiding the Knowledge nav item in Settings (even with Edit Organization Settings off). Note that you will need to disable both "Create New Knowledge Base" and "Edit Knowledge Base Settings" to have "Knowledge" item fully removed from Settings.
- The Manage Communications Channels permission controls showing/hiding the Channels and Settings options under Communications header in the Settings navigation (even with Edit Organization Settings off)
- The Edit Organization Settings now only shows/hides the General Settings navigation item in Settings.
Security
- We added additional IP checks during user session validation.
- We added additional rate limiting to our login screen to prevent automated attacks.
- We improved our application defense against possible clickjacking.
- We updated application dependencies to mitigate any third party vulnerabilities.
- We improved application security by limiting the number of concurrent user sessions. Users can still work in multiple tabs at the same time.
