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, take a little fresh air walk and check back in a bit.


What's New?

All New Resource Designs!

Your resource pages have a brand new look! This beautiful redesign is focused on making search and discovery as quick as possible.

If you're an admin, you have more space to highlight your featured resource pages. If you're a user, you have lots of new pages, tools, and filters to make finding what you're looking for super easy!

Take a peek at the links below to learn more about the new designs:

Dropbox and Box Content Embeds

If your team uses Dropbox or Box for file sharing, you can now embed those files right in Haystack. Simply use the /-command content editor and select Box or Dropbox from the dropdown.

Updated Format Text on Dashboard Cards

Your dashboard library has a fun little update. Historically, our Static Card has house simple text, but now it's rich with formatting! Text editing, text color, and even URLs! This is the perfect place to house VIP information, office hours schedules, company values, and more.

LinkedIn Social Advocacy Embed
As a content owner, you may sometimes share news that you'd love your employees to share publicly. Product updates, company announcements, marketing campaigns, award wins, and more! Our new LinkedIn social advocacy card makes this easier than ever. Simply use the /-command content editor and select the Share to LinkedIn option to configure your in-line sharing tool.

Jira Federated Search

We've added Jira to the list of apps that connect to our third-party federated search tool. This means you can find search results from Jira right from your Haystack search tool. Learn more about connecting and using third-party search.
