New features
Section titled “New features”Onboarding modal and book-a-demo button New
Section titled “Onboarding modal and book-a-demo button ”The first time an admin opens the global or space app page, a one-shot onboarding modal opens with a short product introduction and a Book a demo call to action. After dismiss, the page itself shows a pulsing Book a demo button briefly to make the next step obvious. The modal only shows once per browser; the pulse fades on its own.
Linked content URL badge in the byline New
Section titled “Linked content URL badge in the byline ”When the Publish page action has run on a page, the byline now shows a small badge linking to the published copy. Equivalent for the published copy: a badge linking back to the source. Same source-to-published mapping the action maintains for itself, surfaced where readers are most likely to look for it.
Filter for active workflows New
Section titled “Filter for active workflows ”The active workflows view in the global app page now supports filtering by space, by workflow, and by current state. Combined with the existing pagination, this makes it practical to drill into a specific subset across large instances, for example, “every page in the Marketing space currently in In Review”.
Email on publish New
Section titled “Email on publish ”The Publish page action gained an email configuration. Turn it on and a notification is sent every time the action successfully publishes a page, with the same recipient and templating options as the standalone email action. Useful for letting stakeholders know when content has gone live in the public space.
Expiration reminders New
Section titled “Expiration reminders ”Page expiration now supports reminder emails. Configure one or more reminders relative to the expiration date (for example, 7 days before and 1 day before) and Aura Workflows sends a notification to the configured recipients each time. Reminders fire even if the page is not transitioned; once the expiration date itself is reached, the configured expiration transition fires as before.
Page variables tab New
Section titled “Page variables tab ”Pages now have a per-page variables tab that lets reviewers and authors view and edit the workflow variables for that specific page. Previously, variables could only be set in the workflow definition or in space-scoped overrides; this exposes them at the page level for one-off adjustments. Useful for reviewers who need to override a single value without touching the workflow or the space.
The page-level value takes precedence over the space-level value, which takes precedence over the workflow default. Same resolution order as before, just with a new tier on top.
Metadata macro New
Section titled “Metadata macro ”A new Metadata macro renders one or more workflow variables and metadata fields directly on the page. Pick the fields, pick the layout, and the macro renders their current values. Combined with the existing Status, Reviewers, and History macros, page authors can now build templated landing pages that surface every relevant piece of workflow context inline, without sending readers to the byline.
Values are read live from the workflow instance, so changes to a metadata field show up the next time the page is loaded.
Bug fixes
Section titled “Bug fixes”- Fix Security and stability improvements.
- Fix Fixed email rendering to allow rich HTML formatting in the body, where it was previously being escaped.
- Fix Fixed the publish-link mapping not being cleared when the published page was deleted, which caused the next publish to update the wrong page.
- Fix Fixed expiration durations not being saved for states that had expiration configured.
