Release Notes

We strive to maintain backward compatibility with every release. We strongly recommend testing new app versions in a sandbox before deploying the latest version in your production org.

 

Version 8.16

• When handling inbound calls, you can now map nodes from the request body directly into the response body. See the inbound template response JSON builder.
• You can now edit the details of a scheduled call job in the Administration page.
• When making a call from a custom button or making a call in a screen flow, you can now choose to make the call directly, without a confirmation page.

 

Version 8.14

• You can now use Custom Labels for merging and mapping into URL / headers / request body / response body and Salesforce fields
• You can now provide the JSON to be sent in a node manually and merge values from the main object, labels, custom metadata or custom settings. Learn more about manually defined JSON nodes.
• Small design changes to improve the user experience

 

Version 8.12

• Retry for Inbound Call Logs: You can now re-run template actions from inbound call logs. This new feature allows you to retry the actions directly from the log details, improving troubleshooting. Learn more about retries with Declarative Webhooks
• JSON nodes that are conditionally generated based on specific criteria now have a small icon next to the node name, making it easier to identify and work with these nodes.
• Is your inbound call taking too long? We’ve introduced support for running certain actions asynchronously, allowing the response to be generated faster while the remaining tasks continue in the background. Learn more about the inbound call actions.
• For inbound templates using Salesforce REST API authentication, deployments are now easier! URL now reference the Template Developer Name instead of the Template ID, streamlining the configuration process.

 

Version 8.8

• When building Inbound Call responses, you now have the ability to map fields and flow output variables from actions other than the main object. Learn more about generating a response to an inbound call.
• When mapping a field into a List of Values JSON node, you can now split the value by a character or text, line new lines or semicolon.
