Features & enhancements

*Item*	*Description*

Bug fixes

*Item*	*Description*
Bug	Issue with column expressions evaluating case-sensitive column names Fixes an issue where client evaluation of certain column expressions would fail due to the name being case sensitive. Deployed to 30% of free users.
Bug	Issue with Form views containing Suggested Values expression with empty EXTRACT function Fixes an issue where a `Suggested Values` expression that used an `EXTRACT` function would break a Form view if the `EXTRACT` function input was empty. Deployed to 30% of free users.
Bug	Try to navigate back to previous app or AppGallery if user declines consent dialog Currently if a user declines the consent dialog they end up stuck on the About page and have to use device or browser back button to navigate away. Now if they came from a previous app it will navigate back to it, otherwise it will take them to AppGallery (except for WhiteLabeled apps where AppGallery is hidden).
Bug	Fix parameter input assignment for Ref actions A bug was fixed that prevented assigning input parameters when configuring a reference action within the Automation side-panel.
Bug	Restore meaningful error message when Google Doc template file cannot be retrieved A more meaningful error message is now displayed when Google Doc template files cannot be retrieved.
