Release candidate date: 28th of October, 2026 at approx. 19:00 CET.
This release introduces several improvements across WorkPoint 365, with a focus on security, usability, and extended automation capabilities. The WorkPoint 365 installer now uses Sites.Create.All by default for new solutions, supporting our continued move toward a least-privilege permission model.
We have also improved the Process Builder experience, with new options to hide conditional steps until they become relevant and collapse selected steps into more manageable sections. In addition, Automate Managed Metadata fields now support adding terms to open term sets, while HTTP actions now support PATCH operations, providing more flexibility when building integrations and automated processes.
Alongside these improvements, the release includes a series of bug fixes and reliability improvements across WorkPoint 365, addressing issues in several areas of the platform.
New features
Sites.Create.All default permission
From this update onward, the WorkPoint 365 installer will use the Sites.Create.All permissions scope by default when installing new solutions. This is part of the ongoing Least-privilege approach, which you can read more about in the WorkPoint Partner Portal soon.
Product improvements
Hide conditional steps in the step overview
This product improvement adds better control over how conditional steps are shown in the Process Builder step overview. It allows steps that are configured to be skipped based on preconditions to be hidden from the overview until they are actually relevant, which makes the process easier for users to understand and avoids showing unnecessary system or informational steps.
Collapsible step sections
This update also introduces the ability to collapse selected steps in the overview into a single expandable group, helping keep long processes more compact and easier to navigate. In addition, the improvement ensures that the active step remains visible and automatically scrolled into view, improving usability in larger processes.
The following image shows an example:
This setting is found in the "Rules" section of relevant steps:
