2410 Release notes¶
Released on: November 2, 2024 (Fast prod environment)
General improvements and optimizations
This release includes general improvements to enhance the Revenue Grid Email Sidebar and Sync's stability, performance, and security. We have made several behind-the-scenes optimizations to deliver a smoother user experience across these features.

2409 Release notes¶
Released on: September 28, 2024 (Fast prod environment)
General maintenance and minor enhancements
This update focuses on improving the overall stability and performance of the Revenue Grid Email Sidebar and Sync. We have made a series of backend enhancements to ensure a smoother and more reliable user experience.
The release includes minor adjustments that enhance synchronization accuracy and refine the handling of custom configurations.
2408 Release notes¶
Released on: August 31, 2024 (Fast prod environment)
1. Improved admin control for impersonated organizations
In the previous admin panel, admins could connect users to Mail services or CRM within the RG UI for impersonated organizations without end-user involvement. However, this option was temporarily unavailable in the new admin panel.
Now, we’ve restored and enhanced this feature, allowing you to connect impersonated users directly to Mail services and CRM without requiring end-user involvement. Simply go to the impersonated user's Connectivity page and edit their Email, Salesforce Email, and Salesforce ID on the Email and CRM Configuration Cards accordingly.
2. Support for Salesforce Contacts to Multiple Accounts
The RG Email Sidebar now fully supports Salesforce's Contacts to Multiple Accounts feature, improving how related contacts and accounts are displayed and managed.
Key improvements:
- The Account-Contact Relationship object is now available in the Sidebar Customization, mirroring the fields in Salesforce.
- The Sidebar displays "Related Contacts" and "Related Accounts" in the Related tab for selected objects.
- You can now create and update relations between objects in the Sidebar, with changes syncing seamlessly with Salesforce.
This update enhances usability and ensures accurate interaction with related objects, improving consistency between the Sidebar and Salesforce.
3. Enhanced internal contacts initial search
We implemented the ability to include records with your own email address in the initial search results. Previously, the user's own email was filtered out during the initial search.
To enable this setting:
- Go to the Customization page > Other settings.
- In the Application settings section, under the Include internal emails into search results option, select Include own email.
- Click Save to apply the changes.
The Include own email option is available only when the Include internal emails into search setting is enabled. For more information, see Application Settings in Sidebar Customization.
2407 Release notes¶
Released on: July 27, 2024 (Fast prod environment)
Save event attachments as Content Documents
Previously, event attachments could only be saved to Salesforce as Attachment objects and were linked solely to created Event objects.
Now, you can save an event attachment as a Content Document. It will be saved to Salesforce as a separate file, directly linked to:
- The Event or Email object
- The Event or Email owner
- Other objects you manually selected via the Sidebar or automatically selected by the Server Sync according to your sync settings.
This method of saving attachments prevents file duplication in Salesforce storage and optimizes file management, making it the preferred method.
For more information about saving event attachments, see Attached Files Handling Mechanisms.
2405 Release notes¶
Released on: June 1, 2024 (Fast prod environment)
2405 New features and improvements¶
1. Improved Content Document synchronization via Server Sync
Previously, Content Document attachments could only be linked to Salesforce Contact (WhoId) via the Sidebar. Now, synchronization is available via Server Sync as well. For more information about the attachments synchronization, see Attached Files Handling Mechanisms.
2. Warning pop-up messages update
Previously, when the customization of the search availability differed between Salesforce and the Sidebar, users received the message "Something went wrong, restart Revenue Grid." It provided few details about the issue.
We have changed the message format, and it now includes the error ID and a textual description of the problem, allowing for better understanding and troubleshooting.
3. Disregard organizer's calendar option in Time slots
Previously, the ability to exclude the organizer's calendar from the resulting time selection table was only available in the "Book me" feature.
We have added it to Time slots, allowing users to manually select available times in the organizer's calendar, even if they overlap with other engagements.
4. New Application Access type
Due to the retirement of RBAC Application Impersonation in Exchange Online it is no longer possible to log in via delegated authentication to accounts with impersonation permissions.
To facilitate a smooth transition from classic EWS Impersonation to Application Access and then to Graph, and to give admins more flexibility over user distribution and allocation, we implemented a new login type - Microsoft 365 OAuth (EWS API) App-Only logon. For more information about profiles connection types, see Managing Profiles via the Admin Panel.
2404 Release notes¶
Released on: May 6, 2024 (Fast prod environment)
2404 New features and improvements¶
1. Improved the license management for admins
Previously, it was hard for admins to monitor the number of used licenses (seats). To address this issue, we added the “Assigned Seats” column on the Licenses page, where admins can see how many employees are using our products.
2. Improved UX on the My Connectivity page
Improved user experience with the My Connectivity page: changed the wording for cases when a service (Salesforce, mail service, etc.) is not connected. The previous “Disconnected” wording was misleading for users who never connected a service and would create unnecessary concerns for users.
3. Export Profiles data in a CSV file
Added the possibility of exporting data for all profiles on a tenant in CSV format. This functionality is available using the “Export to CSV” button above the table on the Profiles page in the new admin panel.
4. Auto-save the sender’s email domain into desired field
Added the possibility to configure saving of the sender’s email domain into various fields on records creation forms in the Add-In.

2402 New features and improvements¶
1. Access the Actions menu more conveniently
Now the “three dots” (Actions) menu icon in lists is “pinned” (always visible) on the right-hand side of the interface. So, you can conveniently access it without excessive side-scrolling.
2. Connect to Revenue Grid more conveniently
Implemented the simplified Connect procedure for Revenue Grid’s Salesforce managed packages. For more details on the new Authorization method used see:
3. Select user’s mailbox type on user creation
Implemented the possibility to specify the mailbox type in the new user creation dialog in the Admin Panel.
4. Create new records more effectively with dynamic layout on create forms

However, in a period of inactivity, sync sessions may occur every 60 or 120 minutes to save resources based on your work practices.
Learn more about this pattern…
2. Save enhanced emails to additional Salesforce objects more effectively
Changed the logic of saving enhanced emails to additional Salesforce objects. Now, manually saving an email to the extra (unlinked) Salesforce object results in adding the object’s email address to the Other Address field of the Enhanced email in Salesforce.

3. Auto-sync internal emails with internal Users and Contacts
Improved auto-syncing of internal email messages with internal recipients (colleagues) added both as User and Contact records in Salesforce.

Address
Title
Email
Phones (if multiple - assign according to Contact’s phone fields)
Account

1. Fixed an issue that occurred in configurations which use Person Accounts, resulting in a Sync issue “Can not select a person account”.
2. Fixed an issue with processing of user-defined “Email domains blacklisted from syncing” values involving aliases (with [+] in the address). Now they are handled as designed.
3. Fixed an issue where an incorrect set of objects was linked to a saved email or event after extra objects to link were added using search in the Saved email/Save event dialog. Now only specifically selected objects from search are linked.
4. Fixed an issue that prevented RG Sidebar logon with Salesforce creds for some of end users (the “SimpleWebClient concurrent use” exception).
