New Features

  • Flow Actions have Agentforce friendly descriptions
  • Recategorized Flow Actions to "MS Teams" instead of "Notifications"

Bug Fixes

  • ‼️Many Flow Actions did not provide a response to the Flow Designer, which could cause Bulk-unsafe errors. These Actions have been Deprecated, and new ones are available for replacement.

Other bugs and maintenance items.

Special Upgrade Notes

Many of the Flow Actions have been Deprecated and re-created due to a bug that could not be addressed with a package upgrade.

Existing Flows using these (now) deprecated actions will need to be edited to use the new actions. Replacing an action should take between 2-5 minutes each. To demonstrate, we have this quick little video to show how to identify & fix.

If you are upgrading from 2.8.0 or earlier, you will want to upgrade your Teams App Manifest to our latest version (1.2.0). To get Started:

  1. In Salesforce, open the App Launcher, navigate to Teams Bots
  2. Visit the Lightning Record Page for the Bot you created.
  3. Take note of the missing permissions for features that you will need.
  4. In the Additional tab, download the Manifest.zip file and share with your Teams Admin.
  5. Have the Teams Admin go to the Teams Admin Center and update the App using the new Manifest.zip file.
  6. Have the Teams Admin go to the Azure Portal's App Registration page (direct link on the Bot record) to add any new optional API Permissions.
