A little Christmas present for everyone! Just for you, we are releasing a real highlight at the end of the year that significantly improves the interactive capabilities of the Service Portal.

Highlights

  • RESTful API

  • Support for the required field attribute for all input fields

  • Support for hiding input fields

  • Support for FEEL expressions for the Required and Hide attributes. This allows fields to be marked as required or hidden while editing the input form

  • Forwarding of input forms to groups. Previously, input forms could be forwarded to individual persons. Now they can also be forwarded to a group.

  • Service Portal

  • Department as a drop-down list. Optionally, the Department field can be displayed as a drop-down list. This simplifies operation for users

  • Support for dynamically setting input fields as mandatory or hiding them (FEEL Expressions)

  • Support for authentication via SAML (SSO)

  • HTML support for the display texts of entries in selection lists

  • Comments from other users on tasks are displayed directly in the Service Portal

Incompatible changes

  • Service Portal

  • Sessions are now valid beyond the browser tab
