Deployed Forms & WorkflowsIn previous versions of , it was easy to see which forms or workflows were deployed based on the status of "deploy/undeploy" icon. In v9.1 the convenience of at-a-glance view for deployed forms and workflows has been preserved. Deployed forms and workflows will now appear in the list with a |
...
flag icon beside them. Here is an example of a list of forms and workflows in which one workflow is deployed: |
...
SchemasThe Schemas screen received a UI refresh in a similar fashion to the Projects and Forms/Workflows screens. Schemas are now sorted alphabetically by name and item numbers have been removed. Each item has a 3-dot item menu that contains all of the existing operations. Use the |
...
Add icon to upload a new schema. |
...
ScriptThe Script screen received a UI refresh in a similar fashion to the Projects and Forms/Workflows screens. The current script has an |
...
Action menu that contains all of the existing operations. |
...
SpacesThe Spaces home page received a UI refresh in a similar fashion to the Projects and Forms/Workflows screens. Spaces are now sorted alphabetically by name and item numbers have been removed. Each item has an |
...
Action menu that contains all of the existing operations. Use the |
...
Add icon to create a new space. An added convenience for designers is that when creating a new space you will be directed immediately to the Space Designer to begin editing, rather than back to the Spaces home page. |
...
StylesThe Styles screen received a UI refresh in a similar fashion to the Projects and Forms/Workflows screens. Styles are now sorted alphabetically by name and item numbers have been removed. Each Style has an |
...
Action menu that contains all of the existing operations. Use the |
...
Add icon to create or upload a new style. |

Enable Strong Passwords
Good security is a desirable feature and is becoming mandatory with compliance initiatives like GDPR. Tenant admins can now set password strength requirements on the Create Tenant or Manage Tenant screens. There are four password strength options (Fair, Good, Strong, Very Strong) or the field can be left blank if you do not want to enforce password strength. In v9.1, leaving this blank will still require a minimum password length of 8 characters. When you change the password strength requirement, users whose passwords do not comply will automatically be prompted to change their password on their next login. |
...
Definitions of Password Strength:
A user creating or resetting their password will be required to meet the password strength specified by the tenant admin. Password strength is indicated as the user types by a Password Strength Meter visible below the entry. There are no specific length or character requirements, but the meter will detect the strength of the password based on use of uncommon words or phrases and unpredictable use of capitalization, numbers and special characters. Helpful suggestions appear to prompt the user towards a stronger password. Password length is limited to 100 characters and an error message will appear if user attempts to enter more than 100 characters. Users cannot use their old password or a temporary password as the new password. Here are screenshots of what a user might see if the Tenant Password Strength is set to "Strong." Strong and Very Strong passwords use uncommon words or phrases and unpredictable use of capitalization, numbers and special characters. |

Additional Enhancements
Migration ConsiderationsUpdated Built-In Data NamesWith the transition from "Applications" to "Projects," some of the built-in data used in rules and templates is updated in v9.1. The following built-in data has been added:
The corresponding application equivalents (form.application.id, app.id, and app.name) will be available for a limited time and may not be supported in a future release. Designers should update their forms/workflows to use the new built-in data at their earliest convenience. Table Column Printable PropertyDesigners can now set the table column printable property using rule code. Here is an example. Line 1 will set the entire column's printable property to false; lines 2-4 show an example of how to make individual cells not printable. Keep in mind that the column setting will override the setting of individual cells.
Control Validation ErrorsIn prior versions, controls whose type was changed (i.e. from date/time to date) after initial design could give an unexpected error when the user entered valid values. This has been fixed, but for workflows that had this error in prior versions, customers should take these steps to trigger the updated type definition:
Visual Rule BuilderFunctions for Date/Time ControlsThe Date/Time control type is meant to represent a point in time, so certain functions in the Visual Rule Builder (year, month, day, hour, minute) are not available on this control type. Change to Function for ConcatenateIn prior versions, the '+' operator could be used in the right-side of expressions for either addition of numeric values or concatenation of strings. However, using the '+' operator for both functions could cause browsers to hang on longer expressions. Starting in v9.1, the '+' operator will be used only for addition. Use the function concat(text1, text2, text3) to concatenate text strings.
Documentation LinksSome of our terminology was updated in v9.1, such as "Applications" to "Projects" and "flow" to "workflow." As a result, some page titles in our documentation and their URLs have changed. If you have our documentation bookmarked, please use the left-hand page tree to navigate the documentation and update your bookmarks so that you can always find what you are looking for. |
