Release Notes Apr 3, 2023

What's New

This release of Actions Express introduces the following new features, improvements, and changes.

Access Control for Modules

Role-based access control was added to the integrations modules. It allows Actions Express administrators to control who has access to the activities that rely on a particular module instance.

All module types support access control except for:

  • Module types that don't have any activities related to them, such as event-emitting modules.
  • The following individual modules:
    • Text Message - Command Line
    • Text Message - Email
    • Text Message - HTML
    • Text Message - Message Queue
    • Text Message - Serial Port
    • Text Message - Twilio

New Position of Module Selection for Some Activities

The module instance selection field has been moved from the activity header to the activity's Settings tab for the following activities:

  • Send Email
  • Send SMS
  • Advanced Communicate

Mandatory Module Selection for Some Activities

The following activities were changed to require module instance selection before saving their changes:

  • SendEmail
  • Advanced Communicate (only when Email or All is selected for Channel)

Activities within existing workflows with no module instance selected will continue to attempt auto-selection of a module instance until you change the activity settings. At that point, you will be required to select a module instance before you are allowed to save.
