What’s new in Favro

You can now reorder tags and members on a card making daily work quicker and less cumbersome.

Break down a card with a template, for example:

• Product epics to product grooming boards or backlog.
• Marketing campaigns or big projects into task boards.
• Big company initiatives to work boards.

Card ID is now available in sheets view:

• Add Card ID by clicking + in a sheet.
• Click on Card ID to directly copy a link to the card.
• Filter on Card ID (all views).
• Card ID has been visually updated in all views.

Having the Relations column provides detailed information about where the card is, in what board/collection, and what is its current status. It can also be used to monitor specific teams work or have the connection between different board status fields.

You can now export a board as:

• Microsoft Excel.
• Comma Separated Values (CSV).
• JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).

Timeline view improvements:

• Lanes in board timeline view.
• Additional data on cards like status, time on board, custom fields can be displayed.

In Favro you can now:

• Add images and files in comments.
• Look at the activity feed to see which images and files have been added to a card or collection.

The Favro <> Jira integration has been updated and now:

• Supports two way user sync
• Sync via webhooks
• Jira data center support
• Automations integration
• Many bugs fixed for more robustness
• Polished UI

Now you can structure your collections in folders:

• Add color to folders
• Search for folders when adding or moving cards
• Starred is now prioritized above pinned
• Star and pin individual collections within folders

Favro now has support to share links (or so called "viewer accounts") with collection and board data:

• Securely share links with anyone in your company without paying for extra users
• On the Enterprise plan, let users open cards and read comments. Users can sign up to leave a comment
• Share links outside of your company, like to a community of users

Favro's API has been updated and expanded:

• Full support for all custom field types
• Getting a rich text format in markdown from card descriptions
• Bug fixes

With Favro's new Automations, teams can save time, streamline their workflow and increase coordination between teams.

Some examples:

• Create recurring tasks on every time period
• Change the status of a card when it's completed by a team member
• Send a message to people within the organisation when a due date is reached
• Integrate of your build infrastructure via webhooks to move tasks and stories

From now on you can select many rows in a sheet, click and edit one cell, and fill that value to the rest of the cells. This makes it super fast to update a lot of data in a sheet/database.
