We generally release new features and bug fixes around 3 pm PT, but that time is likely to vary. If you're not yet seeing these updates in your account, treat yourself to an afternoon snack and check back in later.


What's new?

  • Resource Creation Flow. Similar to our post creation flow update in our last release, your resources creation flow still has all the features you know and love but is wrapped in a shiny new design. Learn more about creating resources here.

  • Updated #Tags. Tags are back and better than ever! #Tags are now supported throughout the platform anywhere you're creating content. Simply type "#" to add an existing tag or create a new tag.

  • [BETA] Support for Okta/SCIM Group Mapping. We've expanded our Okta/SCIM integration to support group mapping. This means you can use your Okta groups to automatically create and map users into your Haystack groups—this can be especially helpful for department groups, location groups, and employee groups. If you're interested in Okta group mapping, please reach out to us at support@haystackteam.com.

What's fixed?

Bugs we squashed this week:

  • Broken styling for existing links to Haystack resource pages

  • Lack of support for hyperlinks in comments

  • Broken image caption tool

  • Various formatting issues with bulleted and numbered lists in the editor

  • Issues with copy-pasting images into the editor

  • Minor error-related issues when connecting the Slack integration

  • Various backend bugs

We hope you love these new features as much as we do. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out at support@haystackteam.com.
