Successful Migration to Workflow V2! 
New Capabilities Unlocked!

In one of the major developments, the platform has migrated fully to the Workflow V2. Apart from the numerous performance enhancements, we have added multiple features which we’ll roll out over the next weeks.

Here are some of the newest actions you can tap into to make your apps more efficient: 
 

Update fields by Running one-time-expressions

This feature runs the expression only once. For example: to date stamp an Approved Action. 

Schedule Workflow 
You can now auto-trigger workflows at specific times - daily, weekly, monthly, etc. - removing the configuration hassles if you have multiple workflows running at the same time. 
 

Don’t Miss the Opportunity To Boost Your App Building Skills!

Since April, we have been hosting live workshops for our community - App Builder Surgery Sessions. App builders from across the globe join here every week, to connect with fellow creators, solve their app issues live, get answers to app-building questions, demo their apps, collaborate and more! 

We have more exciting topics, case studies and topics coming for you in the next session! 

To cater to global time zones, we’ll be live at two different times. Please pick the one that fits your schedule the best!
