New Features
Streamlined Support Access
We are streamlining Support access across the Devo Ecosystem to create a better experience for all parties. The Support portal is now you direct access to create, manage and view your case history and this is no reflected on the Devo Platform.
Activeboards optional widget loading
Performance is a key value in Devo and we know sometimes Activeboards are so detail rich that they may take longer optimal to load all those widgets. With this update you can individually disable the launch of any widget in your Activeboard.
This will reduce system resources load a swell as loading times for said Activeboard. You gain greater control of your widgets and faster access to critical information.
Updated Features
Alerts creation form update
Each Alert Create form default setting for “Include all fields” has been reversed and the help info has been expanded with complete information.
Activeboard editor improved
Build your activeboards faster with a new autocomplete feature for the activeboard editor!
Activeboard default sorting removed
Normally, when a Table widget is loaded for the first time, the rows are automatically sorted by eventdate. With this update, no sorting algorithm will be applied to the rows regardless of the sort used in the query. Rows will be displayed in the order they are recieved (possibly by eventdate but not guaranteed). After loading, the user can define specific sorting choices through the column headings.
Automatically retry when Search returns a recoverable error in Data Search
Users will no longer be blocked by message “Absent Data” in Data Search, the system will automatically retry action 4 times.
Improved Data Search with new max column visible columns
New limit to opening searchers with more that 50 visible columns will improve the experience and stability of Data Search. Through out our eco system, 95% of tables have less than 50 columns. The team will help many any existing tables in that 5% range with the clients.
Improved Create Lookup Experience
When loading a CSV Lookup, all whitespaces starting/ending a Lookup column name will be automatically removed.
When creating a lookup any manually typed extra spaces at starting/ending will prompt an error message letting you know where the extra whitespaces are before Lookup creation.
Performance Improvements
Preferences pages and Current Queries page performance has been significantly improved through internal code changes to increase the loading speeds.
