Made with passion and Huly

Changelog

August 27, 2024

Take Huly with you on your mobile device with Telegram integration! Connect with contacts for streamlined communication right within your Huly workspace.

This release brings a very exciting development to the Huly platform: Telegram integration. As we move towards developing a fully-featured mobile version of Huly, we're excited to offer our first integration with the messaging app Telegram. This integration not only allows Huly users to stay up to date with messages and notifications from Huly delivered right to their mobile device, but also allows for easier management of outside communications from within the Huly platform. Also in this release is a new feature for scheduling meetings right from your Huly planner, making it possible for teams to coordinate meetings in their virtual office without the need for an external calendar or video conferencing software. These major feature additions, along with several enhancements and bug fixes, make this release a significant step forward in the development of the Huly platform.

🚀 New Features

  • Connect Huly with Telegram

    Huly is going mobile! Users can now connect their Huly account with Telegram to receive and respond to Huly notifications from their mobile devices. Users are also able to use Huly to communicate with anyone who has a Telegram account, regardless of whether that contact also has an account with Huly. This Telegram integration provides a solution for Huly users to stay connected with their workspace while on the go, ensuring that they never miss important updates or messages from their team. It also offers a way for teams to seamlessly manage external conversations from within their own workspace, without the need to switch between apps. Telegram messages from external contacts can also be shared with the rest of the team inside the workspace, allowing for seamless collaboration and communication. You can learn more about how to set up and use our Telegram integration on Huly Docs. #6182

  • Schedule meetings from the Planner

    Team members can now schedule meetings in Huly right from their Planner. To schedule a meeting, click on any open space on your schedule to create a new event, then check 'Create meeting' in the event options. From there, you can select any of your workspace meeting rooms, which will automatically generate a link to the meeting when the event is saved. You can also add participants to the meeting, either by typing the name of a member of your workspace or by creating a contact for a guest you'd like to invite. Meeting participants who are members of your workspace will receive a notification about the event, while guests will receive notice at the email you associate with their contact. #6206

  • Log in or sign up using a one-time password

    Users now have the option to log in or sign up using a one-time password sent to their email. This option allows users to access their account without needing to remember a password, making it easier to log in from shared devices or when a password is forgotten. #6097

🌟 Enhancements

  • Improvements to the Drive user experience: This PR includes several improvements to the user experience with Drive. File versions can now be clicked to open a preview, allowing for easy access to the entire history of a file. Also, when meetings are recorded in the Huly virtual office, these recording files are automatically uploaded to Drive with default metadata for video size. These updates deliver a more seamless experience for users working with files in Drive. #6213

  • Enhancements to chat interface: Several improvements have been made to enhance the chat interface for better performance and usability. Chat and activity channels are hidden when they've been inactive for over a week, and a new message notification will appear beside threads and channels, even when notifications themselves have been disables in settings. Check out this PR to learn more about these enhancements! #6176

🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed infinite loading: Thank you to open-source contributor @i2gor87 for resolving this issue with uploading incorrect files! Previously, uploading a broken file would result in infinite loading, blocking the UI without providing a visual indication of error to the user. This PR fixed the issue with infinite loading and instead displays an error symbol beside the incorrectly uploaded file. #6174

  • Fixed bug with displaying future events: This PR fixes a bug causing events over 4 days in the future from displaying correctly when the schedule in the Planner is expanded. With this fix, events on all days will display correctly regardless of whether the schedule is expanded or collapsed. #6175

  • Resolved issue with wrapping in codeblocks: An issue causing long lines to overflow in codeblocks has been resolved. With this fix, long lines in codeblocks will wrap onto the next line as expected. #6406
