​
Automatically retry failed integration steps

Temporary blips in connected tools shouldn’t stall your workflows. For HTTP and Automations Library steps, Next Matter can automatically retry a step up to 3 times (with increasing delays) when it hits a safe, temporary failure - for example a connection error, a rate limit, or a short-lived server error. We don’t auto-retry failures where a retry might create a duplicate side effect.New HTTP and Automations Library steps have Automatically retry on failure on by default. For existing steps, open the step settings and turn the toggle on if you want this behavior. Leave it off for steps that must run exactly once (for example, sending a message or creating a ticket).

​
Make the important checklist items mandatory

Checklists got stricter - in a good way. You can now mark individual checklist items as mandatory or optional, increasing the flexibility of checklists to allow for specific entries to be required or not, with a clear indication to users per checklist entry.

​
Delegation rules for conditional and dynamic assignees

Automated delegation now works on steps with conditional or dynamic assignment as well. Set who should (or shouldn’t) take over a task even when the assignee is decided at runtime.For details, see Automated delegation

​
Improvements and fixes

  • Find instances by active step and assignee - Filter the workflow overview by the active step and who’s currently assigned, so you can jump straight to the work that needs attention. For details, see Instance overview table
  • Out of office for light users - Light users can set out of office and pick a stand-in, so their tasks keep moving when they’re away. For details, see Out of office
  • Open task counts at a glance - Tab headers show how many open tasks you have, so the next piece of work is easier to spot.
  • Quieter morning digests - The morning email digest is off by default for new users; opt in if you want the summary.
  • Data references in links - Fixed a bug where data references inside link URLs could get corrupted.

​
Connect multiple accounts to the same integration

You can now connect more than one account to a single integration and choose which one a step should use. Great for teams that work across multiple workspaces, regions, or client accounts.

​
Narrow user-selection fields to the right teams

When you add a user-selection form field, you can now limit the choices to members of specific teams - so people only ever pick from the right group.For details, see User selection
