**Updates & Bug Fixes**  
_Release Date: 1/18/22_

# Bots

- **Bot Mapping** 
    - We simplified the process of mapping a Bot to a webchat or SDK channel. You can now select the bot from a dropdown on the channel integration rather than having to map it from the Bots mapping tab. This makes it faster to set up and reduces the chance of an incorrect bot mapping.
    - We updated the buttons on the bot simulator chat room to allow a user to run a Quick Train or a Full Train depending on their needs.

# Knowledge

- Fixed a bug where custom links in the header were not always showing on external Knowledge Bases. We also fixed a styling issue where they had a dark background by default.
- Fixed a bug where the external Knowledge Base SSO redirect sometimes sent users to the incorrect domain. This occurred when Organizations had more than one Knowledge Base with a custom domain.

# Integrations & APIs

**Customer Webhooks**  
- We added a new webhook option for Customer Location updates. You can now add a Customer Location webhook through our existing Generic HTTP integration and have it send updates every time a Location is updated in Boomtown. This will help teams simplify custom bi-directional CRM integrations.

**Updates & Bug Fixes**  
_Release Date: 12/28/2021_

# Admin & Settings

- Added a new custom field type that is a User lookup field. This field will allow you to look up and tag user(s) to the field and display on the different object layouts (Cases, Locations, etc.). This will allow teams to easily track additional customer relationships such as Sales Owner and Account Manager for data filtering and to keep them in the loop on any important updates.

# Bots

- Added Flow Pausing function to our Virtual Assistants. This is the ability for bots to pause a conversation topic, start a new conversation topic, and then return to finish the previous conversation topic once the 2nd one is complete.
- We updated our fallback (unmatched response) logic for our Virtual Assistants. These bots will now respond with a contextual fallback (set at the Flow level), then respond with a global fallback (set at the bot level). They will repeat this process 3 times before giving up on that response and letting the user try a new topic or route to a human for additional help. This ensures that a customer never gets stuck in an unwanted conversation loop.
- Removed unused entities and intents from our bot machine learning models to increase intent matching quality and reduce training time.

# CX Manager

- Fixed a bug where inbound phone calls would not always match to existing customers with the same phone number.
- Fixed a bug where the scroll bar didn’t always work when editing the details of a Customer.

# Integrations & APIs

- Fixed a bug preventing the Seismic integration widget from showing on the integration panel
- Fixed a bug where Zapier triggers were not always firing

# Knowledge

- Fixed a bug where custom header links were not showing on external Knowledge Bases.

**Salesforce Package 1.10**  
_Release Date: 01/15/2022_

In addition to adding several new features and fixing bugs from version 1.9.1, we also completed some significant application code refactors that have increased overall performance of the application. Here's a summary of the updates for version 1.10.

# **Features and Updates**

## Setup & Configuration

**General**

- Removed the Home tab
- Added descriptions throughout the app to more clearly describe how the app works

**Configuration Tab**

- Added a master on/off switch to the application so you can quickly turn off all data syncing without changing any workflows or mappings
- Added a read-only Integration ID field on the Configuration tab to show which Boomtown integration you are connected to. This is helpful during troubleshooting or when changing environments.
- Add the ability to stop an initial Sync once it is in progress.

**Mappings tab**

- Added the ability for users to delete mapped custom fields on the Mappings tab
- Updated the default mappings to simplify the initial setup and configuration
- Updated field labels from Issues to Cases on the mappings tab to reflect the latest Boomtown product language
- Added a Save Mappings button on the Mappings tab to be more consistent with the rest of the tabs that have save buttons instead of auto save
- Updated the Sync Direction dropdown to a disabled state on the Mappings tab where there is no Salesforce field selected

**Workflows Tab**

- Added the ability to name Workflows to make it easier to remember what each Workflow does
- Added the Active Boolean to the main Workflows tab so it’s quicker to see if a Workflow is turned on or off

**Data Components & Syncing**

- Updated the app to automatically sync Contacts on Accounts (if they match the Contact Workflows) when an Account is first synced to Boomtown
- Updated the Troubleshooting Steps and Resolution Notes fields to be Text Long fields instead of Text fields so that we can pass more than 256 characters from Boomtown to Salesforce in these fields
- Updated the Boomtown ID fields in Salesforce to not be unique in order to allow Salesforce to have duplicate Account data without throwing errors
- Updated the application timeout limit from 10 seconds to 28 seconds to prevent any possible timeouts on data syncs
- Added several performance updates across all parts of the application to significantly reduce processing time and speed up the data sync process

# Bug Fixes

- Fixed a bug when a Case moved from one customer to another in Boomtown it didn’t always update to the correct Customer in Salesforce
- Fixed a bug preventing Date Fields from being mapped from Boomtown to Salesforce
- Fixed a bug where Accounts wouldn’t get synced from Salesforce to Boomtown when a non-mapped field was the trigger that executed the workflow rule.
- Fixed a bug that prevented our app from working in debug mode
- Fixed a bug where the Boomtown Case URL field was only showing the Case ID and not the full clickable URL
- Fixed a bug where having two parenthesis in the Filter Logic field on a Workflow would cause an error. You can now use nested logic. For example, (1 AND (2 OR 3)).
- Fixed a bug where the data from the Boomtown Product field would only display a single product in Salesforce rather than the full list of related Products
- Fixed a bug where updating records in Salesforce before adding the details on the Configuration tab would cause errors in Salesforce
- Fixed a bug where having a field on the Mappings tab that had a sync direction set but no field mapping would cause a nullPointException error
- Fixed a bug where the Salesforce ID was not always being saved to Cases in Boomtown when the Case originated from Boomtown
- Fixed a bug where adding a new custom field mapping didn’t save the field on the mappings tab and the user had to select the field twice
- Fixed a bug where Case Notes from Boomtown would not always get appended as Case Comments in Salesforce
- Fixed several performance-related errors including SOQL errors, maximum stack depth, chunking errors, and CPU errors

**Bot & Virtual Assistant Updates**  
_Release Date: TBD_

Following our recent launch of our Virtual Assistants, we have added a number of new updates to continue to improve the overall experience from building through deployment and customer experience.

## Building

- Added an On/Off Toggle to the Virtual Assistant Q&A pairs to make it easy for a builder to create content before deciding to push it live
- Added a field on the WebChat configurator that allows bot builders to map Virtual Assistants to specific Web Chat instances with a single click. This allows for faster setup and greater flexibility when creating multiple WebChat instances.

## Testing

- Added a message in the bot simulator chat room notifying the user when a data training is complete so they can begin testing
- Updated the buttons on the bot simulator chat room to allow a user to run a Quick Train or a Full Train depending on their needs.

## Deployment

- Added a warning on the bot deployment screen to notify a user when they are about to deploy an update to a bot without first completing a full machine learning model training
- Added a pop up on the deployment screen to warn users when they are about to deploy a Bot that has known errors. An error log displays the errors that should be fixed.
- Added an automated timeout if a bot deployment to production does not complete within 1 hour. This ensures faulty deployments do not get stuck in the deployment process.

## Customer Experience

- Added Flow Pausing capabilities to our Virtual Assistants. This gives our bots the ability to pause a conversation, start a new conversation topic, and then return to the previous conversation where it left off once the 2nd one is completed.

**Updates & Bug Fixes**  
_Release Date: 12/15/21_

# CX Manager

- Fixed a bug where Cases created from inbound phone calls would sometimes get cancelled after a conversion was completed
- Fixed a bug where the Case Details (column 2) of the Case view would sometimes fail to load
- Enhanced performance for our regularly scheduled CRON jobs

# Knowledge

- Added additional security measures to videos uploaded to Internal Knowledge Articles to ensure they can't be accessed by unauthenticated users
- Fixed a bug where copying and pasting content from Word documents into an Article would cause an endless spinner and result in the content not being copied over
- Fixed a bug where trying to copy content from the same Word document multiple times into a Knowledge Article didn’t work
- Fixed a bug where nested accordions opened when the parent accordion was opened
- Fixed a bug where links used within Article accordions caused the link to display as an accordion instead of a link

# SDK

- Updated the Default Customer field on the SDK configurator to allow users to select any Customer in their Organization

# Admin & Settings

- Added a new custom field that is a User lookup field. This field will allow you to look up and tag users to the field and display on the different object layouts (Cases, Locations, etc.).

**Updates & Bug Fixes**  
_Release Date: 11/9/21_

# CX Manager

- Fixed a bug where custom fields with the Type = Date did not filter properly when using Case Filters and Views
- Fixed a bug where switching between different Kanban Case Views didn't update the Case List to the new Kanban view selected

# Knowledge

- Fixed a bug where the 'Open in New Tab' toggle was not showing when adding a link to a Knowledge Article

# Bots

- Bot Builders can now leverage the "Route Conversation" Action Node to allow end-users to leave a message for Teams outside of hours of operation. This radio button will override global timeout behavior so the Case will stay open for agents to respond the following day during hours of operation.
- Updated Entities to relate to the Organization instead of a specific Bot. This will allow teams to leverage Entity data across multiple Bots and on Cases in the near future
- Fixed a bug where cloning a Virtual Assistant Bot was not cloning all Flows

**Visual Status Indicators Added to Outbound Chat Communications**  
_Release Date: 10/27/21_

We've updated the UI within our communication panel on Cases to show additional visual indicators when a user sends an outbound chat message from a Case. This will provide users with valuable indicators to understand if the message they sent is still sending, has sent, or failed to send.

When a message is being sent, the message will show a status in the top right to indicate if the chat has sent. The status will move from **Sending** to **Sent** and then afterwards show the **timestamp** of when the message was sent.

If a message does fail to send, the message will show as **Failed** and will offer the user the opportunity to **Retry** sending the message or to **Cancel** sending that message.

Lastly, if for some reason the user loses internet connection, we've added visual feedback in the communication panel so the user understands their network connection is down.

**Updates & Bug Fixes**  
_Release Date: 10/26/21_

# Bots

We added a feature on the "Route Conversation" Action Node to allow end-users to leave a message for agents outside of hours of operation. This option will override global timeout behavior so the Case will stay open for agents to claim and follow up on the following day when they are online.

# Knowledge

We updated our External Knowledge Base login functionality to allow users to log in with SSO instead of requiring a username and password. This will also streamline linking to internal Articles for users that are not already logged in. When a user tries to access an internal Article and they are not logged in, they click login and it will open a login page. After logging in (either with username and password or through SSO), the user will be redirected back to the link where they came from.

# Webchat

Fixed a bug where public Knowledge Articles shared from a bot were not always loading inside Webchat depending on the customer's cached data.

# CX Manager

- Fixed a bug preventing users from adding Notes to Cases when switching between historical cases from panel 1 of the Case
- Fixed a bug where billing subscriptions would periodically fail due to invalid emails
- Fixed a bug where scheduled events were showing incorrect time zones when sent via text message

- Fixed a bug where setting a link in a Knowledge Article to open in a new tab didn't open the link in a new tab
- Fixed a bug where the count of open Cases in the Customer Panel on the CX Manager view would display 0 instead of the total number of open Cases for that Customer
- Fixed a bug where password recovery emails were not always sending

**Quick Access for Active Phone Call**  
_Release Date: 9/28/21_

One of the most rigorous tasks for a user is to answer calls and then navigate to the respective Case for the active call. Previously, whenever a user picked up a phone call, Boomtown used to redirect the user to the Case immediately. While it gets the Case in front of you immediately, it takes away focus from anything you were doing before picking up the call.

With this update, we are introducing an _Active Phone Call Tile_ on the navigation bar. This tile appears whenever the user picks up a phone call and it stays there until the call is disconnected. The user can click on the tile anytime to navigate to the Case linked to the active phone call.

**Updates & Bug Fixes**  
_Release Date: 9/28/21_

- Updated the Case Events Timeline to show the Form Completed Event when a Form is submitted from WebChat or Support SDK. This allows easy access to the Form data with a single click.
- Fixed a bug where Case Creation Forms submitted from WebChat and Support SDK created a Case with the title showing 'Invalid Case #REFID'. It now shows '[Case Type] #REFID' until it is given a Case Name.
- Fixed a bug where duplicate events were posted to the Case Events timeline when a survey was sent to a customer
- Pushed an update to allow Service Provider organizations to use the custom Case tags that are set up by the Sponsor organization on a Case
- Updated our Zapier Integration to enhance our data syncs for Customers, Contacts, and Cases.
- Fixed a bug related to time zones where scheduled event times were showing incorrectly when communicating with customers via automated messages.

**Support SDK Appearance Customization Update**  
_Release Date: 9/14/21_

# More SDK customization options in the cloud

Previously, all appearance customization to the Support SDK screens had to be done inside your application. While this is easy enough to do, it becomes more complicated as you want to make quick updates outside of release cycles.

With this update, we have added JSON to an Advanced Configuration tab where you now edit options like colors, lines, spacing, and more to fully customize the look and feel of your SDK without having to push a new app version.

We fixed three bugs:

1. Fixed a bug where the Case Scheduled token was broken in Alert Templates
2. Fixed a periodic Out of Memory error with our APIs
3. Improved chat tile processing speed so they show up faster
4. Fixed a bug where certain forms were not saving some responses when the form was completed
5. Fixed a bug where users were receiving 'New Activity' email notifications when they had that notification disabled

**Restrict Which Users Can Edit Specific Knowledge Libraries**  
**_Release Date_**  : 9/14/2021_

You now have more flexibility to define which users can create, edit, and publish articles in specific Knowledge Libraries beyond the overall Knowledge Permissions assigned to the user role. With the new **Restrict Editors To:** field on the Library Settings page, you can now designate a subset of the users in your organization who can create and edit Articles in a Library.

fix We also fixed a bug where adding a Link to an Accordion would display an extra down arrow under the link.

**Salesforce Integration Enhancements**  
Here's a summary of the updates we have released to our Salesforce integration over the past 2 months.

_Version 1.6 was released to the AppExchange on 6/18._

With this release we added new performance and UX enhancements as outlined below.

### Custom Field Mapping Modal

1. Made the custom field mapping modal taller to avoid picklists going off the bottom of the screen
2. Updated sorting for the Boomtown API field picklist to be alphabetical
3. Update the sort order of the Salesforce field picklist to be alphabetical

### Future Method Update

Salesforce does not allow batches to be triggered from future methods for third-party applications. We have updated our application to delay the batch updates from the Boomtown app until after the future method is completed in order to avoid these errors.

### Skipping Unneeded Batch Updates

We added a performance enhancement that is an additional check on the workflow rules to first check if any of the mapped fields changed. We will only call the data sync if the change on the record is for a field that is mapped. Otherwise, we skip the sync since no data will transfer between systems.

### Account Name Mapping Update

We updated the Account Name mapping to update both the Boomtown Customer Name and the Boomtown Location name. If the Salesforce Account Name changes, the Customer Name and Location Name will remain in sync between Salesforce and Boomtown.

### Enhanced Contact Mapping

We enhanced our Contact mapping for when Cases are synced from Boomtown to Salesforce and Contact records are not synced. If the Boomtown Case is related to a Contact that is not synced, we will check the email, phone number, and name of the Contacts on the related Account to see if we can find a matching Contact. If one is found, we will relate that Contact to the Case in Salesforce. This increases the likelihood that Contacts in Salesforce will be appropriately tagged even when Contact data syncing is turned off.

### Additional Control Over Case Comment Syncing

We added an additional field on the Mappings tab that allows users to select the direction of how Case Comments get synced. You can set comments to not sync, unidirectional, and bidirectional. Case Comment syncs are still only triggered when Case Workflow Rules evaluate to true.

### Additional Mapping Options for Lookup Fields

You can now use Lookup Fields in your Workflow Rules (previously hidden). This will provide additional flexibility for building custom Workflow Rule logic.

_Version 1.7.0 was released to the AppExchange on 7/14._

This is a minor release that had a few bug and performance enhancements.

### Updated Custom Field Data Sync on Initial Case Creation

Previously custom field data would only sync after the record was created and then updated. We updated this workflow so custom field data syncs from Salesforce to Boomtown on initial record creation. We also fixed a bug where this was causing fields in Salesforce to become blank after the sync back from Boomtown.

### Added Flex Queue Check

We added an extra check on the data sync to make sure that adding the batch job to the flex queue will not push it over the 100 job limit that Salesforce imposes. If we find that the batch job will push the Flex Queue past 100 jobs, we will skip the sync for those records. In the future we will add a queue mechanism to hold those syncs until after the Flex Queue has returned to lower levels.

### Test Classes

We updated our app for test classes. We added a check for the existence of custom settings in our code and test environment. This will allow organizations to run automated tests that include our managed package.

### Other Small Updates

- We found that in the Performance Edition of Salesforce, the standard Subject field was not available as one of the field mapping options. We updated our logic to ensure this field is accessible as a mappable field and will also appear as the default mapping option from Boomtown Case Name when the app is installed.
- We fixed a bug preventing organizations from changing the tokens and keys once the app was configured.

_Version 1.7.2 was released to the AppExchange on 8/4._

- Fixed a LimitException when too many queueable jobs were added to the queue from simultaneous background processes
- Fixed a bug preventing new tokens from saving in some Salesforce environments

_Version 1.8.0 was released to the AppExchange on 8/11._

- Updated our sync logic to queue requests coming from a Batch in the same way we queue requests from Future Methods
- Updated the app with a performance enhancement making the evaluation logic 13% faster

_Version 1.9.1 was released to the AppExchange on 8/31._

- Moved all bulk changes to a new queueable class that will trigger earlier in the code flow
- Additional performance optimization on syncs from both single and bulk edits

**Release Notes 7/15/2021**  
This release we are updating our URLs so all users will now log into our new interface. We are also launching an update to our SDK configurators and a number of performance updates and bug fixes.

## URL Update to New Interface

With this release we are updating the URLs for our new and old web app interfaces.

When you log into app.goboomtown.com, you will now log into the new interface. No action is needed on your end. There will be no changes to app-new.goboomtown.com so if you have SSO set up it will continue to function as it does today.

If you still need to access the legacy interface, it will remain available to use. Please reach out to your primary point of contact or email us at product@goboomtown.com for access.

For anyone that hasn’t already started using the new interface, we have created a new knowledge base to help with the transition, which can be accessed at https://help.goboomtown.com/.

If you are looking to submit remote or field service requests to Boomtown Services in the new interface, here are a few articles to get you started:

- [Submitting Remote Service Activation or Training Requests](https://help.goboomtown.com/How-to-Submit-a-remote-activation-training)
- [Submitting Field Service Requests](https://help.goboomtown.com/How-to-Submit-a-Field-Service-Work-Order-Request)
- [Understanding Cases in the new interface](https://help.goboomtown.com/Understand-Cases-in-the-Boomtown-Platform)
- [Creating Custom Views to Help keep an eye on Cases you care about](https://help.goboomtown.com/Filtering-Saving-Case-List-Views)

## **WebChat & Support SDK**

With this release we are making it even easier to integrate, update, and customize your in-app customer experience. We took the customizable JSON where you can edit text, colors, spacing, and all other appearance changes to your SDK, and moved that code to the SDK configurator in the cloud. This means that you can now make changes to your SDK’s in-app appearance without having to release any new code or release a new version of your app.

**Other WebChat and SDK Updates**:

- Fixed an issue where the Route to Team field was not working correctly on WebChat and SDK
- Updated some dark mode default colors to allow the SDK to work in dark mode off the shelf
- Fixed a bug that periodically prevented you from downloading the SDK JSON configuration file from the configurator
- Added Journeys as a new home screen option for the SDK to display active journeys to your customers and easily keep them informed throughout the experience

## Salesforce App Updates

- Updated custom field syncing so fields sync on initial creation and not just updates
- Enhanced logic to prevent duplicates from being created when there are multiple edits to a single object in Salesforce within a few seconds
- Fixed a bug that periodically prevented notes syncing from Boomtown to Salesforce

For additional details about the latest Salesforce app version, [click here](https://www.goboomtown.com/blog/boomtown-salesforce-app-release-notes-v1-6).
