Features

Reset Scroll

We have introduced a new feature where microapp creators have another option for the type of scrolling experience they want for their viewers.

What is it?

Microapp creators can select a ‘Reset Scroll Position’ option using a hotspot when creating a scroll tile that will allow end-users to quickly go back to the beginning of the canvas with one click.

What’s in it for you?

We know for a viewer, it can be cumbersome to have to take the time to scroll through content and scroll all the way back to the beginning to continue the experience. It is even more frustrating that there is no option to change the scrolling experience as a microapp creator.

How to get started?

Note: Reset Scroll Position is not supported on the mobile app at this time. This feature will be available on the mobile app soon.

API update for Aggregated Analytics

This year we released a new section within Engagement insights called Aggregated Analytics. In an effort to continue making data available to consume in various ways, we have made it available in our public api.

What is it?

Our public API is here to easily share microapp data.

What’s in it for you?

If you use our public API, along with other microapp engagement data, you can also pull aggregated analytics data.

Honorable Mentions

Rotate to Reload

Viewing a microapp on your mobile or tablet browser and then rotating will no longer trigger a page refresh or microapp to reload. Expect a banner asking you to reload the page if there is a better more optimal adaptive format for the device position.

Gallery Fix

When viewing a gallery in the microapp, end-users were experiencing some issues viewing images when performing certain interactions. You can view the next image with no issues.

Global Assets Fix

When dragging an asset from the Libraries tab in the builder to the gallery, scroll, and image tile flyouts, the asset did not appear in the Assets tab in the builder. We have fixed this issue, and assets should be appearing in the Assets tab once again.

Duplicated Assets Fix

If you have been duplicating microapps with assets from the Asset Library, you may have experienced an issue with duplicate assets in your Asset Library. We've fixed this issue, and you can continue to duplicate microapps without duplicating assets.
