⭐️ Features​

  • Document Templates: It is often desirable to generate different documents during the process. For example, this could be an order confirmation or an invoice. With the new document template feature you can do exactly this. To do this, you can switch to draft mode for document templates from within the Process Designer. These can then be used either by the users for export or during process design with a corresponding action.

  • Help Tour: To make it even easier for new users to get started with our software, a help tour has been implemented. You can start it via the global navigation. The help tour provides context specific information per page and guides people through the different functions that are currently available.

  • SQL Database Connector: Various customers have requested the ability to connect to external SQL databases. With this update this is now possible by providing appropriate actions. The following database systems are supported:

    • Microsoft SQL Server
    • PostgreSQL
    • MySQL & MariaDB
    • Oracle

    Note: By default this feature is disabled. If you wish to use this feature, you must first enable it in business unit Administration.

  • Email Attachments: From now on it is possible to specify file attachments when sending an email using the default type email action.

  • Improvement of the Richtext Editor: To help you design your texts and document templates as well and easily as possible according to your ideas, the Richtext Editor has been enhanced even further. This new feature allows you to use text alignment, headings and other formatting.

  • Exchange Online OAuth credentials: Microsoft has changed the technical login process for accessing Exchange. This means that in the near future it will no longer be possible for linqi to log on to the online service with just a user name and password. To ensure that our customers can still use this feature, an Exchange Online mode has been implemented for Exchange access data.
    Note: If you use the Exchange Connector with Exchange Online you have to change your connection to the new mode. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us here.

  • Performance Optimizations: To guarantee fast loading times, various performance optimizations have been implemented. Especially with slower internet connections, such as when using mobile internet, the loading times have again been significantly improved.

  • Advanced placeholders for SharePoint actions: For even easier work with SharePoint, new placeholders for SharePoint actions have been implemented. For example, it is now possible to query the ID of a newly created entry.

🐞 Bug fixes.​

  • Saving mask values for text fields with own format: If you defined a custom format for a text field and then entered a value and deleted it, the displayed mask was saved as the value for the field. After this update, an empty value is correctly saved in this case.

  • UX Improvements: Various small imperfections in the interface have been fixed.
