In December 2023, Jodoo was updated (V 8.0.0 and V 8.1.0) twice. For more updates, please go to the Update Log: https://help.jodoo.com/update

Key Updates

General Feature

Increasing the Maximum Number of Columns for Data Importing

In Ver.8.0.0, the system allows a maximum of 500 columns for data importing, which corresponds to the maximum limit of 500 fields allowed in a form. This update allows you to directly import large amounts of data from an external database.

Open Platform

Optimizing Workflow-Related APIs

In this update, Workflow Instance Query API and Workflow Task Query API will be upgraded to V2. Two new response parameters have been introduced:

tasks[].create_action: refers to the workflow actions for task creation.
tasks[].finish_action: refers to the workflow actions for task completion.

Optimizing Syntax Error Reporting in Custom Plugin Code

During the plugin designing process, the Python code view now has been updated to include a feature that reports errors in the editor when you save your code. This update helps developers easily spot any syntax errors in their code and rectify them promptly, providing a more intuitive and efficient development experience.

Optimizing Online API Document

1. Parameter reference

On the open platform, a new document is introduced: Parameter Reference.

In the document, you can switch between apps/forms to quickly identify the parameters required for API testing.

2. API testing

API Console allows you to debug an API on the API debugging platform.

Besides going to the debugging platform in Parameter Reference > API Console, you can also click API Explorer in the corresponding document to access the platform.

To debug an API, select an API to be debugged enter the API key, and request parameters on the debugging platform.

App Template

Optimizing the App Template — Inventory Management (QR Scanning Version)

In this update, the Inventory Management (QR Scanning Version) template is optimized. It now allows you to add data by scanning barcodes or QR codes of products. Our data linkage feature automatically matches additional information related to the scanned item. This update improves order accuracy for inbound and outbound operations, simplifies data recording through code scanning, and enhances order fulfillment efficiency.
