Gravity Flow version 2.1 is now available via auto-update and for download from the account area.
This is a feature release that adds support for Gravity Perks Nested Forms, enhancements to the Outgoing Webhook step and the discussion field, new developer features and some important bug fixes.
IMPORTANT: Gravity Flow needs to be upgraded to v2.1 before upgrading to Gravity Forms v2.3.
Highlights in v2.1
Support for Gravity Perks Nested Forms
Gravity Perks Nested Forms is an extremely popular add-on for Gravity Forms which allows repeatable data in Gravity Forms. Gravity Flow now supports Nested Forms on the User Input step so assignees can add, edit or remove child entries from a Nested Forms field. For example, it’s now easier to modify the line items in a purchase order or reimbursement request without complex conditional logic. The Approval step also supports viewing the nested form data so assignees can approve the nested data.
Notice the total price of all the products is updated immediately.
Outgoing Webhook Enhancements
The Outgoing Webhook now has additional “Next Step” settings for different response codes. For example, you can now send an email to an administrator if there’s an error response from the webhook.
Discussion Field Enhancements
Discussions between assignees can get pretty long. So we’ve added a nifty little feature to restrict the visible discussion items to 10 with a “View more/less” button to toggle the rest of the discussion.
Easy Access to the Step ID
It’s now easier to find the Step ID. We’ve added it to both the step list and the step settings page.
Developer Enhancements
We’ve added 9 new filters in this release to make it even easier to customise Gravity Flow. We’ve also refactored the way assignees are added to allow new types of assignees to be added. This will pave the way for some exciting new features we have in the pipeline.
