The following prebuilt connectors have been added to the Patchworks marketplace:
All-new dashboard home/overview page The dashboard home page has been overhauled - now you have more information at your fingertips to see how your process flows are performing and any actions required.
Tracked data When field tags are applied for the data schema associated with a connector endpoint, you can now choose if the field should be ‘tracked’.
Process flow run failure email notifications You can now associate a notification group with a process flow so recipients receive an email notification in the event that a process flow run fails.
Lookup cache transform now accepts incoming transform value as the cache key When defining a lookup cache transform function you can now use the output from multi-stage transform as the key for the cache lookup.
Allow payload variables to be sourced from metadata It's now possible to target payload metadata in variables.
Run logs now show incoming payload from a webhook or inbound API call If a process flow receives data from a trigger webhook or an inbound API call, the associated payload can now be viewed in run logs.
Real-time run logs now show body content for connection requests & responses The request and response tabs for real-time logs now show associated body content for a connection.
Retrospective run logs now show the last seven days by default When you access run logs, logs for the last 7 days are shown by default (previously the default showed logs for the last 12 hours).
The cache retention period can now be defined when a new cache is created When you drop an add to cache shape into a process flow and choose to create a new flow-level or company-level cache, you can now define when that cached data should expire. The maximum retention period is 7 days.
The connector marketplace is now accessible from dashboard navigation bar You can now browse the connector marketplace straight from the left-hand navigation bar, using a new 'marketplace' option.
New transform functions New transform functions include Math, string to number, number to string, boolean to string, and null value.
Improved UI The custom script edit UI has had a facelift, with separate code and test panes.
Variables can now be passed into custom scripts for testing When testing a custom script you can now pass in variables (and flow variables) as well as a payload for testing.
More information for invalid credentials If credentials cannot be validated when an instance is added, a more details option is provided so you can view the authentication request and response.
