When this option is selected, all your content type fields within the page or list will be synchronized with their state in Powell Manager
Power App Site creation connector - Manage property bags of your sites
By creating a site through our Power app Site creation connector, you can now define the list of property bag keys and values that will be added to your site.
Power App Send notification corrector - Send the notification regarding the choice of the user
In the latest release, we deploy a new notification scenario that allows your users to choose on which platforms they will receive their notifications.
Regarding this change, we updated our Power App "Send notification" connector to send the notification depending on the platform chosen by the user.
Premium Application - Android package support now the Android SDK version 33
By generating an Android package from Powell Manager, we now use version 33 of the SDK.
For contributors
⭐ ( Preview )Create full content with Powell Buddy – Generate Image & variations
In the last release, we introduced a new way to contribute to Powell via AI with Powell Buddy.
In this release, we've updated the image generator to help you create a complete experience, from text to image generation.
Creating images and variations using a quick prompt will now be easily possible.
⭐ Ready-To-Use – Enable ready-to-use configurations for title and button webparts
We've updated the Button and Title webparts to make them compatible with ready-to-use configurations.
When updating one of these webparts, contributors can now save a new configuration as a ready-to-use template, or reuse an existing configuration.
⭐ Webpart catalog – Add audiences to ready-to-use web parts
From the webpart administration panel, it will now be possible for administrators to manage a specific audience for their ready-to-use configuration.
From this page, you can define 2 statuses for your configurations:
- Visibility (eye symbol): Visible only to its author or to all contributors.
- Availability (padlock symbol): the configuration can be used on all your tenant's site collections, or only on the site collection from which it was created.
( Example of a webpart visible to all contributors and available on all tenant collection sites )
( Example of a web part visible only to its author and available only on this collection of sites )
You can also filter your configurations according to these statuses, and manage each configuration separately.
What's more, in the same interface and in Powell Manager, you can define the default visibility and availability of your webparts when they are created by contributors.
Share price webpart - European market
We've updated the Share Price webpart with the Alpha Vantage API to access the European market. You can now successfully define European stock symbols such as ORAN.
( Share price webpart with ORANGE stock market )
Flexdesk - As a contributor, I want to be alerted when I delete a map
When you modify your Flexdesk component and choose to delete the card, a confirmation message now appears informing you that all card data will be deleted.
For everyone
⭐ Subscription – improvements
Last release, we introduced a new scenario for Subscriptions and notifications inside a web context.
We keep improving the new scenario with few quality of life features that will help you enaging to the feature :
- Mark as read a notification when the user opens it
- Delete a notification
- Delete all notifications
NB: As the feature is in preview for now, it can only be enabled at the tenant level by a Powell administrator not to impact your current site (you can ask for it by creating a support ticket).
Mobile application - We now manage all languages in variation switcher
Until today when you preferred language was not part of the display language list (for example fr-be), the display language of your application was the default one.
In the previous example if your default language is english, user with preferred language fr-be had all their interface in English in place of in French.
Today we change this behavior to manage these display languages and redirect to the correct language.
Now a user with a preferred language set as fr-be will have his interface in french.
