Enterprise UX

  • Clear Authentication Method: Added the ability to clear “Remember this authentication mention option”. This allows for changing access method without needing to remove and re-add the tenant configuration.

  • Markdown Text Formatting: Coleman will utilize as much Markdown as Portal and MS Teams supports. Users can highlight the text responses such as Bold, Italic, Strikethrough, Numbered List, Unordered List, Hyperlinks, Headings, Multi-line code block, and Inline block of code.

  • Reserved Key Words: Coleman will introduce the following reserve words: "Cancel" and "Stop" for cancelling a skill. "Help" will invoke the help command. These reserve words can be invoked any time in a skill. These are useful commands for getting help and canceling the skill when needed.

  • Resubmit No Route Messages for IMS: Messages from an application connection point (IMS and IOBOX) which do not have any road defined in ION are ending up with a 'No route' status. When the routing is fixed, such messages from the last 45 days can be resubmitted in the Active Connection Point screen.

  • Search Resubmitted Messages in OneView: Resubmitted 'No route' messages can be found in OneView. This allows for better traceability of messages. 
  • Expand/Collapse Messages in Inbox/Widgets: Added the ability to Expand/Collapse long messages in widgets and Inbox and the ability to drill down. Users can now see the whole message without having to open widgets or Inbox items and also easily navigate to details view.
