Pagico - Manage teams and projects

Version: 10 released on May 23

Pagico May 2024 Edition: Workflows, Web Widgets, and More!

The wait is finally over! We are excited to announce the official release of the May 2024 Update of Pagico 10! This release includes two major new features: Automated Workflows and Web Widgets! Read on the learn more.

# Automated Workflow
With workflows, you can let Pagico perform actions that are repetitive in nature. For example, you can create a new task in Inbox and have it automatically moved to the corresponding project/contact; or, import a new file and have it tagged and categorized; or, you can create a routine list and have Pagico automatically create the list items for you. Workflows can also be triggered manually, so you can define a filing process then invoke it on any data object of your choice, on-demand! The possibilities are truly endless!

# Web Widgets
Ever wanted to embed web content right into your projects or contacts? With the May update, you can! Simply create a Web Link object, then enable “Render as a Widget” option.

# And a lot more!
In addition to the two new features, this update also brings a number of small, under-the-hood improvements.
- New on May 23: Fixed an issue where workflow-created objects may not show up right away as expected
- New on May 23: Fixed an issue where some times inline tags may not be rendered as tag objects
- New on May 23: Several under-the-hood bug fixes for improved user experience

- Fixed various issues with inline links
- Fixed an issue where the data objects may be rendered in incorrect positions in certain cases
- Hitting the ESC key will now prompt to discard unsaved changes as expected
- Fixed an issue where some times the main content tab may be rendered
