Features & enhancements

Item Description
Enhancement Data Explorer now supports Ref lines for all kinds of Refs

Previously, AppSheet showed Ref lines for direct connections. As raised in the community, there are other kinds of Refs that would be useful to show the lines for and these have been added.

Enhancement Data Explorer data now scrolls independently from the text input area

To correct an issue raised in the community, the Data Explorer content now scrolls independently so that the text input area is always in view.

Item Description
Feature Send dynamic emails from a bot.

Configure a bot to send a dynamic email to one or more recipients based on an event. Dynamic email leverages dynamic email in Gmail (using AMP) and enables users to interact directly with your app in the email rather than clicking out to view the AppSheet app in a separate window.

For more information, see Sending dynamic email from a bot and the community announcement.

Feature Table view

Table View now supports freezing the first column while scrolling horizontally. For details, see Freezing the first Column of a Table View - in Preview Program.

Enhancement Update deck view row heights depending on content available

Currently, deck view rows have a fixed height regardless of how much content you have. With this update, AppSheet adjusts the row size to fit the form factor based on what columns you’re displaying. For more information, see the community announcement.
