Enhanced Plugin Automation & Actions

You'll notice that plugins can now publish automation steps and manage sandbox builds.

These plugins can now leverage advanced JS actions with templates, versioning, and configuration assistance.

Other Improvements

• Automation Builder Enhancements: New variable-only filter builder for Global Automations enables cleaner, more reliable condition logic when filtering exclusively on runtime variables.

• Automation Reliability & Execution Improvements: Improved automation debugging and execution handling, including clearer debugger messaging for Global Automations. The AI Automation Builder now supports additional libraries, including paramiko, enabling SFTP-based automation scenarios.

• Integrations & Data Platform Enhancements: SmartConnectors now support phone number fields as reference data, expanding mapping capabilities. Plugin lifecycle handling has been strengthened to ensure proper cleanup during uninstall and deletion.

• Localization Improvements: Enhanced translation extraction ensures UI strings are consistently captured and translated across all supported languages.

Fixed

• Prevented scheduled automations from running for deactivated businesses.

• Resolved issues that prevented variables from persisting values sourced from logged activity associations.

• Addressed cases where skipping automation steps caused executions to stall.

• Removed lingering JS actions that remained executable after uninstalling a Marketplace app.

• Eliminated browser hangs triggered by plugin-driven dynamic prompts.

• Fixed dashboard layout generation issues that created empty dashlets.

• Improved the automation history view to allow scrolling through all execution steps.

• Corrected missing UI strings that were not translating properly via Lokalise.

• Adjusted floating UI elements to prevent overlap with the “Back to Top” button.

• Repaired related-object add flows for many-to-many relationships

Other Improvements

• Dashboard & Chart Access Controls: Access requests for dashboards and chart groups now enforce correct maximum permissions, improving security and giving admins clearer control with less manual review.

• Plugin-Provided Automation Step: Plugins can now register their own automation steps that behave just like native steps, enabling flexible, modular workflow design and deeper extensibility for advanced custom integrations.

• JS Action templates in Object Actions Menu: Plugins can now register JS Action Templates directly into the Object Actions Menu, making it easier to run custom actions from any object record.

• Automation Action Config Conflict Resolution Options: Automation Action Config now includes new conflict resolution modes for external integrations, giving users more control when updating or syncing data.

• Knowledge Library-Configure Online Source: You can now configure online sources directly inside the Knowledge Library, making it easier to manage external documentation or reference content.

• AI & Retrieval Improvements: The Knowledge Library now uses an improved indexing and retrieval pipeline for more accurate responses, and AI Chat is more stable with better handling of Custom Object–based queries.

• Platform Reliability & Security: Authentication is more stable, Knowledge Base scalability is enhanced with new Postgres databases, and deployment reliability is improved through updated Jenkins artifact configuration.

Fixed

• Fixed an issue where automation stats did not update when an execution’s status change failed.
