In this release you will find some experimental features, so itās a perfect timing to explore them in Settings ā Experimental Lab.
Left sidebar changes and Search in left sidebar (experimental)
In this release weāve started preparations for major left sidebar changes (nested spaces, databases, search and my items switcher). What was changed:
- Styles of all elements are unified. Now special sections like Favorites, Hidden for Me, Smart Sections, etc look like Spaces.
- My Space renamed to Private.
- Templates, Activity Log and Trash moved from the bottom left to the top menu.
Search in sidebar (experimental)
You can also enable Search in left sidebar in Settings ā Experimental. It is not ready for prime-time yet, since it works too slow in some cases. We are polishing it and hope to release it fully next week.
Some batch actions from all views (Action Buttons, Delete, Merge, Convert)
Now you can select many cards on Board, List, Timeline, Calendar (next release) and Feed Views and execute some actions (Convert, Merge, Delete, and custom Action Buttons).
NOTE: This is mostly a preparation release for fields updates batch actions. It is not possible to updated fields (yet).
Selection should be quite intuitive, try to select some cards, hold Cmd key to add/remove cards, hold Shift key to add/remove cards.
Poor manās batch fields edit via custom Action Button
Since there are no fields changes (yet), you may try to create an action button with Ask User values for fields and use it already as a batch update. It will be required to create such button for every database you want to change, but at least you can go with some of the most popular databases till we release native fields batch update.
Lock Entities
Sometimes users make unintended changes to important entities. Now you can Lock Entity and prevent unexpected changes. It works on Entity View and all other Views, but this entity still can be modified via Automation rules or API calls.
Any user with Edit access can lock an entity. Click ā¦ in the top right corner on entity view and select Lock editing action. Click Locked banner on top if you want to make some changes and then click Re-lock banner to lock the entity again.
In the next release we will add Lock to Documents and Views.
Fibery-to-Fibery sync (experimental, enterprise plan only)
For some complex scenarios in a large organization you may run several Fibery workspaces. Sometimes you need to connect them and fetch some databases from one workspace to another workspace. Fibery-to-Fibery connector can handle that.
NOTE: Fibery-to-Fibery sync is Enterprise plan feature, but it is not enforced yet. You may try to play with it, but we are going to enforce Enterprise plan restriction early January.
Fibery-to-Fibery sync databases with all the fields and relations, rich text fields with images, videos and embeds, and even Fibery users.
Some important limitations:
- Fibery-to-Fibery sync is one-way, it means you can only update information in one workspace.
- All selected databases will be synced into a single space, but you can setup several Fibery to Fibery syncs.
Quick Add: Show all applicable forms for a database
If you have some forms created for a database, you can select them in Quick Add. It may be handy if you have several scenarios for new entity.
Improvements
- Now āis any ofā is the default operator for filtering values in relations and single/multi-selects filters
- Plans limits:
- Imported entities are not counted towards the integrations monthly usage limit.
- True to the pricing page, Script action in automations is only available for those on new Pro and Enterprise plans. If you were a paying customer before this November, the change wonāt affect you no matter your plan.
- As announced in our pricing FAQ, legacy Solo workspaces have received the same resource limits as those on the Standard plan: e.g., 1,000 automation runs and 25,000 entity syncs per month. However, you can upgrade to Pro for more, even if youāre alone in your workspace.
- LaTeX support graduated from experimental and supported in markdown export.
- Whiteboard: User can show/hide author on a specific sticker
- Whiteboard: Rapid sticky notes creation using tab. In text editing mode within a sticker, you can now create a new sticker while typing by pressing the
Tabkey. The new sticker will appear to the right of the current one, and the editing focus will move there automatically.
- Now you can display action buttons as icons, without text label.
Fixed Bugs
Few bugs were fixed. It does not mean Fibery has no bugs, unfortunatelyā¦
Cmd + Shift + Eshortcut for LaTeX does not work for selected text- Hide āassign to meā action for read-only Synced By field
- āEdit email/url/phoneā button should be hidded for users with read-only permissions
- Whiteboard: sometimes read only user get screen wide error out of the blue
As always, your feedback and 
s are welcome.
With 
, Fibery team.
just enabled, and my stress levels decreased astronomically. THANK YOU! 
Bless Yāall!
This is amazing! Itāll go a long way for entities that are actually docs. Will we see the ability to lock individual fields or entire databases from changes in the future?
