New features, updates, and enhancements of note are summarised by product area, below:
Company registration
Registering for a trial account
The process for registering a trial account has changed. Now, users are directed to our request a trial page - here they can enter company details and schedule a brief meeting with Patchworks to discuss requirements and initiate a trial.
Documentation in progress

Process flows
View payload metadata at each stage in a flow run
A new metadata tab has been added to the process flow run details panel so you can view payload metadata at each step of a run.

CPT-4575
Create caches from the data caches page
Previously, new caches could only be created via an add to cache shape in process flows. Now you can also use create cache options from the data caches page - you'll find this option for each cache type.
Cache maintenance
CPT-4549
Substring transform function
Fixed an issue where the substring transform function was not allowing negative offsets.
Documentation in progress
