New Features
App Administrator Notes
Now you can use Administrator Notes for a variety of purposes. It can be used to take notes for yourself or to share important points to be remembered with other administrators.
Only app administrators can view and edit the notes.
For now, notes will be empty when creating an app using an app template or using an existing app. This will be available in our next update.
Duplicate Records Using App Actions
Added a convenient way to copy a record within the same app using App Actions.
Additionally, changed the default value of "Available To" that limits users who can use the action from "Logged-in user" (a user who is setting up the action) to "Everyone" (all users). This will prevent users from hiding the action button unintentionally.
