:
πŸš€ Custom Webhooks for Booking Events
*We can now send the same data as we do with Zapier (reference data here) to any webhook (POST request). For anyone who has a system outside of just Zapier, where they want to automate or retrieve the data in some way, Chili Piper can now do that for you. Events include β€œnew” and β€œrescheduled” meetings. We do not support β€œcanceled” meetings just yet (same as Zapier was). Again, see the link above for what data we send.*
Distro
:
πŸš€ Add to Campaign Node
Add a lead or a contact to a Salesforce Campaign. More details on Salesforce Campaigns. Again taking out additional steps that need to be built elsewhere and giving admins the ability to add routes to a campaign directly in Distro. You can select the campaign and update the status.

:
πŸš€ Strict Ownership Queues
A new option has been added within the "Meeting Queues" β†’ "Algorithm" settings to make Ownership Queues, when booking a meeting into a Queue thru the Chrome Extension, "Strict".

This update prevents a Booker from hand-picking an Assignee in an ownership queue and are restricted just to the "matched" owner. ie Existing Account/Contact/Lead Owner.
![image (57)]
πŸš€ Prevent a User from Booking a Meeting into a "non-matching" Queue
Within the "Workspace Settings" tab in a "Handoff" workspace, a new setting has been added to Allow/Prevent users from booking a meeting into a non-matching queue.
non-matching_queue
By default, the setting is Checked, which aligns with the previous behavior. In this case, a Booker is able to choose which to Queue to book into, even if that Queue does not match queue rules.
book-non-matching
If the new setting is Unchecked, then the Non-matching queues are hidden from the Handoff Router.
non-matching
Note: Both features mentioned above can be used together to enforce desired rep behavior when Booking meetings.
Distro
:
πŸš€ Lead Conversion Node
Automatically convert a lead in Distro. This node only appears when you have the trigger on the lead object. For some companies at the point of being routed, they would also like the lead to be converted to a contact and attached to an account and or create an opportunity. Explanation included in the settings!

Distro
:
πŸš€ New Trigger Type: Record is created or updated
Previously if you would like the same routing logic for a trigger where a record was created and updated you would need to create two routers with the same logic. Now you can use the newly created and updated trigger within one router!

πŸš€ Trigger panel order change
Now you start with selecting the object of the trigger, then the action

πŸš€ Duplicate, Delete, or Reorder a Path

πŸš€ Routing Rule View in Router
Instead of going to change and finding the rule to review it or going into your rules section, you can now view the details of the router rule easily from the view button.
πŸš€ Lead to contact conversion action added to flow builder!
You can now add a node that allows you to convert a lead into a contact, account, or opportunity. Previously customers would do this in salesforce flow now they can do everything in DIstro. This allows Distro to handle more of our customer's workflows.Β

Distro
:
πŸš€ Update to the error messaging admins receive when we are not able to find the User in Salesforce to make the update
The previous message was less descriptive of the issue. A typical use case is when a Chili Piper User receives a Distro License but this user does not have a Salesforce License.
New Message:
"Could not assign record {{recordID in SF}} to {{Email of the User}}, a Salesforce ID was not found for this user.
Please have them reconnect to Salesforce within Chili Piper"
πŸš€ Allowing for multiple updates on the same node
Anytime you have a path with the assignment you can allow for multiple updates. For example, you can update the contact owner with the team member assigned and update the account owner.

πŸš€ Field Remove in Salesforce - Push Topic Error
If a field has been deleted in Salesforce, and that field has been used in 1 or multiple routers, previously the router would fail. This update provides a solution of - If Distro detects that a field has been deleted in Salesforce and that field is used in Rules X and Router Y - we will now send an Email notification to the Admin. In the Email, we will specify which rule and which router reference the Field X.
πŸš€ CRM Action: Update Ownership Restrict Fields
This is an Important update to reduce admin errors! Previously when using the feature: β€œupdate Ownership”, you would get access to all fields on the object. This could result in some invalid operations.
πŸš€ CRM Action: Update multiple fields on the same object!
In the router, you can have multiple updates on the same object type. For example, you can now update the lead owner, update a field on the lead, and do as many other actions as you desire.

πŸš€ Object fields in alphabetic order
Making it simpler to search for the field you are looking for

πŸš€ Improvements to search and selecting fields in Rules
1. Automatically start in the search bar
2. If only one result is shown allow the user to use β€˜Enter’ button to select the value
3. If more than one result is shown - allow 'Tab' to go down the list to select a value
4. If something is selected menu should close
πŸš€ CRM Actions: update ownership restrict fields
Removed any invalid operations and restricted certain field types that cannot be used together
Concierge
πŸš€ Support for Opportunity / Case ID in Concierge
Now supporting the parameters: caseId and opportunityId (the same that we use in queues today) and it will work as follows:
  • If a caseId OR opportunityId is passed as a parameter to a concierge URL, we should use it to evaluate any case / opportunity rules that the queues may have
  • We relate the SFDC meeting to the case/opportunity passed as a parameter IF the CRM actions say so
Distro
:
πŸš€
Distro can now support a SECOND use case independent of ownership updates: Updating custom fields!
Admins can set this action directly in their distro route. This could be used to update an additional custom field such as lead status or router name. It is a very useful additional reporting tool!

πŸš€ Update to the logs default option on the distribution method filter
Have a 3rd option that says β€˜No distribution' which only shows those that have not been distributed. If NO option is selected in the filter (clear all selections), then no data will show. In the current state we default to select all this excludes records that have not been distributed.

πŸš€ Log Retention Changes
Only the last 3 months are shown - change sorting from "this Year" to "Last 3 Months"
πŸš€ Rule, Team, Assignment Ruleset, Router: Name is Required
Replace "Untitled" with an error that will show β€œthe name is missing” if the asset is published. This prevents more untitled assets from remaining in your workspace.

Sorting fields are now in Alphabetical Order
πŸš€ Rule Builder: Modify Order for Objects
We have modified the Order in this picklist to follow the typical Sales Process of any company
