New pre-built app tiles

We've added more out-of-the-box tiles to the pre-built app tiles library, expanding the scope of integrations and functionalities available to users. With the new tiles, users can:

  • Display time-off balance from SuccessFactors
  • Display assigned courses and apply for/request time off from Workday
  • Create a ticket in ServiceNow via a form

...all from the home dashboard of their intranet!

Topics updates

Users with Manage topics access can now follow and unfollow a topic from the options menu, so that the feed and other content-related tiles display information related to the topics they follow.Screenshot 2025-02-04 at 11.07.47.png

Custom fields support for segment creation

We now support the use of custom fields for segment creation. Simpplr allows up to 25 custom fields, any of which can be used to create segments. Similar to standard fields, custom fields must not be editable by users. Note that HTML-type custom fields cannot be used for segment creation.Custom fields for segments.png

Ability to hide expertise in the application

We have added an app level setting that allows app managers to turn off or hide the expertise feature in your intranet. If disabled, expertise would be removed from all the features like profile, People filters, and Recognition.

Note: The default setting for any migrated or new intranet is ON. The app manager can turn it OFF if needed.

CSV syncing updates: Support for syncing manager data with non-email identifiers via CSV

We now support non-email identifiers for syncing manager data, available in both CSV bulk upload and CSV SFTP flows. App managers can include a column for at least one login identifier for each user’s manager, such as "manager_email" or "manager_employee_number." Once mapped, manager data will sync successfully.

Field mapping added for custom fields

We’ve added a new Field mapping feature in the Add custom field popup. This field auto-populates based on the custom field’s name but can be updated by the user in the recommended format, ensuring more user-friendly and readable mappings instead of alphanumeric IDs.custom field aws.png

SharePoint file/Global Search improvements

Now, if SharePoint files have 'Title' assigned to them, that title will be displayed in the search results below the file name. Screenshot 2025-02-19 at 12.17.00 PM.pngIn addition, "fuzzy search results" are now supported (e.g., the user misspells a keyword word in search, and a recommendation is still served up as a potential result).fuzzy search results.jpg
