Summary
In this release, we've introduced new tab “Instance errors” to improve error visibility and configuration flexibility. Implemented key improvements to usability and customization, and fixed email step error.
New Features
New settings tab added: Instance Errors NEW
We introduce a new error monitoring page in Global Settings.
Includes a paginated list with filtering option
CSV export: Allows downloading the error list
Each error entry includes hidden details that can be expanded to show more in-depth information (e.g., level, stack trace, expression source, workflow ID).
Improvements
Implemented customizable email templates IMPROVED
Enabled custom email templates for all notification types. Admins can configure sender details, subject lines, and both plain text and HTML content. Templates support variables, expressions, and conditional logic, with an option to revert to default values.
Migrated: Expression evaluation API update IMPROVED
Migrated from the deprecated expression/eval endpoint in response to Jira platform changes.
Added comments configuration setting IMPROVED
We have added a configuration setting that allows admins to require comments when users approve, reject or abstain work items. This option can be enabled globally or per step. When active, users must enter a comment before proceeding actions.
Improved usability of approval path tabs IMPROVED
We’ve enhanced consistency and usability of table views across all main Approval Path tabs(Approvals, Activity, Definitions, Conditions, Delegate, API Keys), including better pagination, uniform styling, cleaner text display, and improved hover behavior.
Bug Fixes
Fixed email step error FIXED
We have resolved an issue where users encountered a "Page not found" error when accessing approvals via email. The associated approval is now correctly shown in the dashboard and accessible from email links.
