The list below represents the features, updates, and fixes included in the GA Release build 4.0.80

Breaking Changes

  • Orbita will no longer provide updates or technical support for Internet Explorer 11, aligning with Microsoft’s announcement that Microsoft 365 apps and services will no longer support Internet Explorer 11 (IE 11) after August 2021.
    As an admin user, If you want to notify the IE11 chatbot users to use a different browser, you can provide them with the message “Unsupported Browser IE. Please use Chrome or Firefox.

    To achieve this, you have to navigate to the Experience Designer > Bot Manager/Chatbot tab > Bot View Template node > Custom JS tab and place the below code.

Sample code

function isIE() {
const ua = window.navigator.userAgent;
const msie = ua.indexOf('MSIE '); // IE 10 or older
const trident = ua.indexOf('Trident/'); //IE 11
return (msie > 0 || trident > 0);
}

function ShowIEAlert(){
if(isIE()){
var content = '<div class="messageHolder"><div class="message"><h4>Unsupported Browser IE. Please use Chrome or Firefox.</h4></div></div>';
setTimeout(function() {
$('body').empty();
$('body').html(content);
}, 800);
}
}
ShowIEAlert();

Experience Manager

  • When the Experience Designer contains a larger number of sub-flows, it takes a long time for deployment. It is now optimized.

  • As an admin user, you can now add Email templates at the project level. If you try to edit a global email template for the first time, a local copy will be created at the project level.

    • For new environments, only 5 global email templates will be available.

      • CalendarInvite

      • Forgotpassword

      • Inviteuser

      • LoginAttempt

      • Admininvite

  • Every deployment will be tracked by Orbita for internal auditing purposes. You can reach out to support@orbita.ai for more details.

  • This release will bring you a new interface for Orbita Experience Manager. Please refer to this Orbita New UI for a quick tour of the new UI.

Experience Designer

  • Previously, whenever you used a directive in a function node, you needed to connect the directive with a say node to render the directive. This has been improved. Now, you can use directives in function nodes without having to connect them to the say nodes.

  • Selecting the email template in the Send email node will preview the template in the node.

Adaptive Cards

  • Adaptive cards now support the masking of passwords. As an adaptive card designer, you have to set the placeholder as Password to get the password field masked.

Adaptive Card Designer

How it is rendered in the Chatbot

 

Answers

  • You can now define multiple values for a word or phrase in Utterances, Answers questions, etc.
    For exampe, in Answers, if you have multiple questions such as
    "how does the covid spread",
    "how does the virus spread",
    "how does the infection spread"
    you can combine them in one question "how does the {covid | virus | infection} spread" for the same effect.

Chatbot

  • In the Project side menu > Chatbot settings > Settings tab, you can now use the reprompt wait time by assigning a value greater than zero.

    • If the rePromptWaitTime property is not set, it will take the default value as zero.

    • If the rePromptWaitTime property is already set to a positive value, it will be maintained after the upgrade.

  • You can now render the chatbot responses in an array format.

    Previously we used to send payload response to the chatbot as an object and hence we are not rendering the response in the user-defined order. Now, we can send the payload as an array to the chatbot, and the chatbot will recognize the array structure and render the response in that order.
    For more info on the usage, refer Chatbot Response in Array Format

General Improvements

  • Fixed a bug that occasionally throws an error and doesn't allow you to save the Adaptive Card Host Configuration.

  • Fixed a bug that doesn't show the Orbita-host-config dropdown in the designer section of the Adaptive cards.

  • In Answers, even if the topics and relationships are used in facts, they are tagged as unused. This bug is now fixed.

  • Fixed the error that occurs when uploading an image in the Message Center of the Skyhawk portal.
    Also added the confirmation popup to notify that the image is uploaded successfully.

  • Fixed a bug that doesn't allow to save any edits made to an existing fact.
