🆕 New Features
Secondary Action button
We are excited to introduce a versatile new feature to our platform: the Secondary Action Button. This addition can be configured to show in the top right corner of a task, next to the current usual submit task button. It offers a flexible array of actions that can be configured independently from the functionality of the primary submit button.
For instance, users can effortlessly create duplicates of their current Work Items by clicking on the secondary action button, that has been configured to copy all values in the existing Work Item into a new Work Item. This new feature allows for the configurations of a wide spectrum of activities and actions, empowering users to enhance their productivity and workflow efficiency in countless ways! (10749)
