Developers can use the brand new code editor to write, edit, copy or paste their custom Javascript function wherever this option is available. The editor uses industry-standard text highlighting to facilitate reading and writing code, along with syntax error detection. The code editor can also test your code by running the code in a sandboxed environment. Test dummy data is automatically provided for contexts involved in the function.

As your Cotalker environment grows, it's necessary to improve access to the groups that contain your tasks, channels, and other links to valuable tools. All groups can now be put into categories that appear in the Main Menu Bar as sub-menus. Category groups can display or hide nested groups within the Main Menu Bar.

🤖 Users will be able to benefit from the development of improved customized automated routines that can now work with external data. That is because, up until now, developers have been able to summon the Custom Javascript Code Stage-Bot (CCJS) within any routine to add customized Javascript code but without the ability to access external libraries. But now they have the power to make network requests using Axios within the CCJS stage-bot!

Our creative team has come up with a way to make the incredibly handy Notes tool that makes co-writing, sharing, and searching through documents associated with your tasks within the Cotalker platform even better. Yes! That's right, we've introduced the PDF exporter you were waiting for! Now you can share those easily generated documents outside the Cotalker environment as PDFs.

🪝 The Webhook Event Trigger family just got bigger! In general, webhooks monitor your activity for events that are programmed to trigger the submission of the event data to a server. With the addition of the two latest trigger events, you will be able to monitor element changes and user logouts.

Survey forms are an intricate factor used in gathering data from users. Since data can be so relative, you can now choose to make submitted surveys editable by users or not. A third option allows you to program the logic determining a survey's editability. The custom code can use task data to determine if and when a submitted survey should be editable by users.

So far, users have been able to access surveys on channel workspaces according to different settings that act as filters determining the survey's availability. But now, with the new developer mode, you can also program an extra layer of logic to determine whether or not a survey should be available. Use task details, like states or other data, to decide if and when a survey can be used by users in the channel. With a small code script, you can easily automate the finest details of your processes.

We've just performed a massive overhaul in Cotalker's Offline Mode, including a refreshing facelift on the settings menu and background syncing with a lighter, faster synchronization process. The settings menu has been revamped, making it more visually appealing, and now with its own sliding menu for Offline Mode options. Users will now benefit from a more expeditious, efficient process of synchronizing data for Offline Mode, while using the app or not! Background synchronization has been enabled so that users can keep the app open in the background and rest assured that once they hop back in, all their data will be up to date, and Offline Mode will be ready to use.

Question Code Automations, a.k.a. QuestionExec, allows you to add custom code to your survey questions to validate answer input, auto-complete fields, and add logic based on business rules. And now, with this update, asynchronous functions have been enabled, more parameters added, and auto-fill response capabilities have been improved.

Among other possibilities, the newly introduced asynchronicity allows communicating with external servers through network requests. This means that your survey can send and receive data through API requests, making it possible, for example, to use databases to validate user input and auto-complete fields.

Up to now, job titles sort users into pools and provide users with additional fields used for gathering extra information. But with the latest update, job titles can now also share access roles and elements with all associated users. This update will allow admins to configure permissions to fill out survey forms or participate in tasks according to users' job titles, thus making security measures easier to implement within a company.
