6.13.0
Summary
What’s new
This update brings several useful features to improve collaboration and admin control. Mentions are now supported in end-to-end encrypted rooms, allowing secure communication without compromising functionality. Admins can also enjoy more flexibility when managing live chat departments by associating them with specific units during setup and updates. Additionally, a secondary navigation panel is available in the preview, providing quick access to team channels and discussions, with a full release planned as a premium feature. A new setting enables admins to disable two-factor authentication for OAuth users, simplifying login for verified users. Apps can now send emails via the built-in SMTP server. Finally, a new API for listing team rooms and discussions helps streamline room management.
Bug fixes
Key bug fixes include resolving issues with unread room marking, optimizing the message parser, and improving email validation for incomplete addresses. Conference call status errors have been corrected, ensuring accurate call information.
