This release is packed with several highly-anticipated features, including required fields and whiteboard comments.
Required Fields
Sometimes you need to enforce mandatory fields to ensure data consistency and integrity when creating or updating entities. Now you can do it via Required fields option in the Advanced section of Field setup.
You can require a value option for almost all fields, including: Basic Text, URL, Email, Phone, Number, Date, Single Select, Parent relation (many-to-one).
Fibery always asks a user to fill required fields values for new entities. Check required fields user guide for more details.
Comments on Whiteboard
Adding comments improves teamwork by enabling users to provide feedback, ask questions, and leave notes across the board. Anyone with âcan viewâ or âcan editâ access can add and reply to comments.
Click the Comment icon in the Toolbar on the bottom, or press the Shift+C hotkey to enter the commenting mode. Then click anywhere on the whiteboard or on any object to attach your comment to that object.
To hide comments, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+C to toggle them on or off.
Automatically share entities with assigned Groups
Wouldnât it be nice if you assign a Team to a Projectâand its members automatically get access? Thatâs what we have for you today.
The automatic sharing for Groups works pretty much the same as for individual assignees: enable the toggle in the relation Field settings, and the access will be granted and revoked automatically as someone links and unlinks a Group.
This works for any User Group DB (Teams, Squads, Departments) connected to any other DB (Projects, Features, Initiatives).
Check out the user guide for details.
See if access template is used for automatic sharing
Can you safely update or delete an access template? It depends on whether someone relies on the template for accessânavigate to Usage tab to check.
Previously, this tab only included manually shared entities so you could mistakenly assume that an access template was not used when, in fact, it was. Now, in addition to manually shared entities, the tab also features Fields that use the corresponding template for automatic access.
If you try to delete an access template used for automatic access, there will be a warning message now.
Asana integration
Now you can integrate Fibery with Asana or import data from Asana and move to Fibery (a good decision!).
Fibery syncs Projects, Sections Status Updates, Tags, Tasks, Teams, Team Membership, Users, Workspaces, Custom fields, Comments and Attachments. Check Asana integration guide for more details.
Desktop Apps personal settings
With Fibery for desktop, you can configure new tab to open a search window, inbox, the first item from the sidebar, or the last tab you opened. Additionally, we have added a setting to enable spell checker.
