      Live canvas previews on tab hover
      
        Hover over any background workflow tab to view a visual preview of its canvas and switch between workflows faster.
      
    

    
      
      Custom Variables preserve native types
      
        Numbers, booleans, lists, and records entered in Custom Variables retain their native data types when passed to downstream steps.
      
    

    
      
        
        Product Improvements

        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          Test runs immediately apply values modified right before pressing Run.

    Aug 24, 2026
  
  
    
      
      Pick fields from dropdowns in list steps
      
        Summarize, Filter, Sort, and Combine now list item fields in a dropdown. Type to search or select nested properties in one click.
      
    

    
      
      Automatic type detection for Sort
      
        Sort defaults to Automatic, ordering numbers as numbers and dates as dates. Manual type overrides remain untouched.
      
    

    
      
      Run history now lasts 30 days
      
        Full run history and step payloads are now retained for 30 days instead of two, giving you time to inspect weekly workflows.
      
    

    
      
      Quick list reads and number formatting
      
        Extract first, last, or total items without loops, and format numbers for display directly inside the Data Transformation panel.
      
    

    
      
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          Open workflows appear as pill tabs with a searchable overflow menu.
          The first added step is automatically marked as the run starting point.
          List steps return items under a standardized results field with resultCount.
          Manual list inputs now support full-width validation with instant syntax feedback.
        
      
    

    
      
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          Conditions step reliably preserves the Else branch after saving and reloading.
          Canvas connections draw as smooth curves and persist cleanly after deletion.
          Combine step now writes exactly one execution record per run.
          Limit step field stays blank when cleared instead of resetting to 10.
          Finished runs update their status immediately rather than staying on Running.
        
      
    

  

  
    Aug 23, 2026
  
  
    
      
        
      
      Combine two lists into one
      
        Join two branches by appending their lists or matching a shared field.
        Choose how unmatched records and duplicate fields are handled.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Three new ways to tidy a list
      
        Sort with up to ten rules, keep only the items you need with Limit, or
        remove repeated values with Remove duplicates.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Watch a loop as it runs
      
        A step running once per item now counts up on the canvas, so a long
        fan-out shows visible progress.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Sort works out the type itself
      
        Automatic detects numbers and dates. If values conflict,
        the run identifies the two items so you can choose a type.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Find the step you need by what you want to do
      
        A new page starts from the job rather than the step name, with the five
        shapes most automations turn out to be. See{" "}
        I Want To….
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          
            Sort shows the type it worked out from your values before you run it, so
            Automatic is not a guess you have to take on trust.
          
          
            Workflow tabs load what they need when you open them, so a canvas with
            several tabs opens faster.
          
        
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          
            The Else branch of a{" "}
            Condition keeps its own
            behaviour when you connect a step to it, instead of turning into an
            ordinary rule.
          
          
            Sort's Automatic preview now shows the same type the run will
            actually sort by.
          
          
            Combine guides you through
            picking the branch and the field, rather than leaving both blank.
          
          
            The Execution log keeps
            live runs authoritative while they finish, so a run no longer appears
            to change state twice.
          
        
      
    

  

  
    Aug 22, 2026
  
  
    
      
        
      
      Numbers formatted for reading
      
        Format for reading adds thousands separators, your
        choice of decimal punctuation and the number of decimal places you set.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Summarize whole items
      
        Summarize can now work on whole items, not only record fields. Sum a list
        of amounts or join a list of names.
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          
            A new Sort rule starts on
            Automatic rather than asking you to pick a type first.
          
          
            Combine guides you through choosing
            the branch and the field instead of leaving both blank.
          
          
            The Workflow Assistant in
            Slack keeps its place in a conversation across a deployment.
          
        
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          
            A step's settings stay yours while a colleague edits the same
            workflow, rather than briefly showing theirs.
          
          
            The shape you define for an AI answer survives two people saving at
            once.
          
          
            A step opened just as somebody else deletes it now says so instead
            of showing an empty panel.
          
          
            The Execution log keeps
            a run's final state through a reconnection.
          
        
      
    

  

  
    Aug 21, 2026
  
  
    
      
        
      
      Read a list where you use it
      
        Transform lists where you use them: take the first or last item, count
        items, or join them into text. There are now 27 operations.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Design the shape of an AI answer
      
        Turn on Response shape to define named, typed fields.
        Later steps can select those fields directly.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Pick a list, or paste one
      
        List steps show available lists and item counts. Choose one, enter a
        reference, or paste a JSON list such as [1,2,3].
      
    
    
      
        
      
      See how long history is kept
      
        The Execution Log names your workspace's retention at the top, so how
        long runs stay is never a guess. See{" "}
        Execution Log.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      Date operations offered only on dates
      
        Add time and Format the date now appear only when the value really is a
        date, so an email address is never offered date arithmetic.
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          
            Every step that works on a list asks which one with the same label
            and the same control.
          
          
            Where only one list is available it is chosen for you; where there
            are several you pick by what each holds, such as "Orders from step
            3".
          
          
            The list picker offers only lists, so you cannot pick a single record
            by mistake and get one pass where you wanted one per item.
          
          
            AI Prompt opens with a
            worked example and points you to the data picker.
          
          
            Once an AI Prompt has run, you can accept the shape it came back with
            in a single click.
          
          
            Paste an example answer into the shape editor and the step offers to
            build the shape from it.
          
          
            Response shape sits with your instructions instead
            of among the optional settings, and collapsing the section keeps what
            you entered.
          
          
            A variable you have defined but not yet run reads as waiting for a
            value, rather than showing a question mark.
          
          
            Answering the assistant's clarifying question carries straight
            through to a finished set of steps.
          
          
            Every workflow the Workflow Assistant lists in Slack can be started
            by name.

            A field holding a list keeps it through a run that produces a single
            value.
          
          
            Signing in works with credentials your browser filled in for you.
          
          
            Losing the network and getting it back no longer leaves the canvas
            waiting: it reconnects on its own.
          
          
            The Execution log keeps
            its history when you refresh the page.

      Loop over items in batches
      
        Set Items per batch to process a list in groups instead
        of one item at a time. This suits APIs that accept several records per
        call.
      
    
    
      
        
      
      A redesigned way in

        Google and GitHub beside the email form.

            A loop can be the step your workflow starts from, so a{" "}

            a workflow you can build and run on its own.
          
          
            Repeater results stay available after When finished,

            Output labels sit beside their connection points, so Error, Else and

            HTTP Request and the{" "}

            A built-in step shows only the fields the option you picked actually

            Every field on a built-in step says what to put in it and what
            happens next, in a sentence or two.
          
          
            Signing in, signing up and entering a two-factor code have been

            A Condition branch keeps
            its identity when the canvas reloads, so the steps after it stay
            attached to the branch you drew them on.
          
          
            The Chat trigger's guidance and the Tools fields are written in plain

            more loosely so the steps stay readable.
          
          Reopening a workflow tab you had closed works every time.
          
            An empty folder shows you what to do next instead of an embedded

            Workflow tabs showed "New Automation" instead of the workflow's name.
          
          
            Reloading replayed the connection animations as though the workflow
            had just run.
          
          
            Some comment pins would not respond to a click, and the unread dot
            floated away from its pin.
          
          
            Turning a webhook address on or off now updates for everyone viewing
            that workflow, not only the person who changed it.
          
          
            The workflow assistant shows when it is thinking, and short
            follow-ups like "make it daily" are no longer blocked by a minimum
            length.

      Build workflows from your own AI client
      
        Glow speaks MCP, so a client that supports it can build on your canvas
        directly. Describe what you want where you already work.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Code execution is deterministic everywhere
      
        The Code editor's
        runtime is now the default. The same code and input produce the same
        result every time.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Finding your way around Trash
      
        Trash has breadcrumbs, so you know where you are and can get back in one

        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          
            Deleted workflows are easier to list, restore and remove for good.
          
          
            Describing a workflow in words reports what it actually built, rather
            than calling a sticky note a finished workflow.
          
          
            The canvas moves to a new sticky note as the assistant creates it, so
            you can watch it work.
          
          
            Validation messages are clearer, and a short follow-up message is no
            longer blocked by a minimum length.
          
          
            The Click trigger picks up a set of refinements based on how people
            use it.
          
          
            Connection animations hold still when you refresh or open a workflow
            that has already run.

            Importing a workflow from JSON had stopped working entirely. It
            works again.
          
          Creating a folder failed with an error.
          
            Canvas comments could not be typed into at all, among several other
            fixes.
          
          
            A workflow could add itself as a subflow, which could never have run.
          
          
            The step picker offered two different HTTP steps, and cleared your

            Your email address is available in workflow data, so approvals and

            Steps missing a required field say which one on hover, instead of
            only when the workflow runs.

            A Wait set to "On webhook

            The step is called Wait everywhere; the catalogue still said Delay in

      Build a workflow once and reuse it
      
        Subflows let one

            Dropping Repeat on the canvas
            gives you the loop shape ready to fill in, rather than leaving you to
            build it.
          
          
            Repeat's settings panel reads as a set of controls instead of

            The Date step's output field
            names keep their meaning across operations, so a reference you set up
            survives a change to the step.
          
          
            Deleting an account that administers a shared workspace completes

            Running out of credits mid-run could execute the same workflow
            twice. Runs now stop once and resume after a top-up.
          
          
            Opening a workspace that was not your most recent could show the
            wrong role and permissions.
          
          
            The Execution log could
            come back empty after a refresh and claim nothing had run.
          
          
            Restoring an earlier version could switch a trigger off without
            saying so. Restore now leaves the trigger as it found it.
          
          
            Starting from someone else's template no longer carries their
            connection details into your copy.
          
          
            Workflow cards show when the last run failed, with the details.

      Form templates can arrive pre-filled
      
        Turn on Default values to give any field a starting
        value. See{" "}
        Form Templates.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Jump from the log to the step
      
        Every entry shows its step number, and clicking one opens that step's
        settings. Long runs collapse to stay readable.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Clone a workflow to another team
      
        "Move to team" is now "Clone to team": your original stays live and
        untouched, and the copy starts as a draft.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Filter works out its own list
      
        Filter no longer needs a
        separate Items field — it reads the list from your rules.
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          
            A retried step is labelled with its attempt number, so retries are
            easy to tell from separate runs.
          
          
            The assistant chat groups related messages, shows who wrote what, and
            indicates when a teammate is typing.
          
          
            Clear all props resets every property while keeping
            your connected account.
          
          
            Parse JSON has its own
            icon instead of sharing one with Custom Variables.
          
        
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          Step settings load as soon as you open or add a step.
          Workflow data and recent step data appear without a workaround.
          Duplicating a workflow copies only the steps in the original.
          The Run button stops when the workflow finishes.
          Workflow access requests always notify the owner.

      Try Glow without an account
      
        Describe an automation and watch it take shape before signing up. Create
        an account to keep that workflow.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      A clearer execution log
      
        Rows show step numbers and open the step when clicked. Runs group
        together, and retries are marked Attempt 2 of 3.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Form templates carry your default values
      
        Turn on Default values to ship a pre-filled template.
        Check what you publish; credentials never travel.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      The Workflow Assistant reads like a conversation
      
        Shared threads show who wrote each message and who is typing. Build
        progress collapses into one line.
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          
            "Move to team" is now Clone to team — the original
            stays live.
          
          
            One Cmd+Z now undoes actions that span several
            parts of a workflow.
          
          
            The execution log no longer hides behind a step's settings panel.
          
          
            MSP console gained a Create workflow action beside
            the renamed Push workflow pill.
          
          MSP operators can open the console during an impersonation session.
          
            A workspace can no longer be left with no admins — another member is
            promoted automatically.
          
        
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          
            Clear all props asks first, keeps your connected
            account, and undoes in one press.
          
          Deleted steps can always be brought back with undo.
          
            Apps that claimed no settings required while requiring them
            are fixed. A catalogue re-scan is still running, so give it a few
            hours.
          
          Workspace access requests always reach someone who can act on them.
          
            A workflow's Draft/Live state on the canvas now always matches the
            homepage.
          
          
            Running-execution indicators no longer flicker or end a run early
            when updates arrive out of order.

      Attach files to AI Prompts
      
        Send a file, image, or screenshot straight to an AI Prompt. It is read
        at run time and never stored in your file library.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Push workflows to clients without impersonating
      
        Deploy straight into a client's workspace. Impersonation sessions can
        now be scoped to one workflow and set from 5 minutes to 30 days.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Webhooks moved to our own infrastructure
      
        Faster event processing, with unguessable tokens. Existing webhook URLs
        keep working — nothing to change.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Execution logs stream live
      
        Watch events arrive step by step as a workflow runs, with search and
        auto-scroll.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Steps tell you what they still need
      
        Required fields are marked, and an incomplete step carries a{" "}
        Setup required badge. Recommended fields nudge without
        blocking.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      See how data moves between steps
      
        The Data Flow tab shows every connection and when it last carried
        anything. See{" "}
        Workflow Data.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Spot a step that had to retry
      
        A badge appears on any step that needed retries during a run, with the
        number it took.
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          Failed and retrying steps are badged on the canvas.
          
            A Data-Flow tab shows where each variable comes
            from.
          
          Paste a value onto a field and it becomes a variable chip.
          Edge labels are editable on the line itself.
          The Admin Console gained annotations.
          Workspace secrets are validated before they save.
          
            New workflow system variables — see the{" "}
            syntax reference.
          
          One-click unsubscribe and marketing consent records.
        
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          Duplicating a workflow from the tab menu works again.
          Filter and Condition builder fixes.
          
            YouTube embeds and sticky notes render in the public share viewer.
          
          
            No more 404 when ending an impersonation session.
          
        
      
    

  

  
    Jul 28, 2026
  
  
    
      
        
      
      Four new steps for routing a workflow
      
        Filter,{" "}
        Switch,{" "}
        Stop and Error and{" "}
        Do Nothing, under Tools →
        Flow.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Conditions gets rule-based branching
      
        Pick a data type and an operator, and send each outcome down its own
        route. Or describe it in words and let{" "}
        Conditions decide.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Manage client workspaces from one console
      
        Request consent-based access to a client's workspace, and revoke it in
        one click — all from the{" "}
        Admin Console.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Loops you can see
      
        Connect a step to a Loop and it
        iterates over the data. Blue chips reference the current item in any
        field.
      
    

    
      
        
      
      Sticky notes connect to steps
      
        Draw an arrow from a note to the step it explains — the Workflow
        Assistant reads them as context.
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Product Improvements
      
      
        
          Switch steps label their own connecting lines.
          Condition steps know what data type they are comparing.
          
            Run on a polling trigger checks the app
            immediately.
          
          Move a workflow from one workspace to another.
          Load real execution data into a step's test payload in a click.
          The HTTP step remembers your last imported cURL command.
          Quieter loading states across the canvas.
          Intercom chat moved under Help &amp; Support.
        
      
    

    
      
        
          
        
        Bug Fixes
      
      
        
          
            Deployed several under-the-hood security updates to our core
            execution infrastructure.
          
          Resolved over a dozen minor UI rendering bugs on the canvas.
