New feature
Block editor
We are introducing an all-new editor apart from the two existing editors available (Markdown and WYSIWYG) .
NOTE
The new 'Block editor' is available for all new customers and all new projects (existing customers). For existing customers/projects, you can expect a rollout of the new editor at the earliest.
The 'Block editor' is hybrid, lightweight, and powerful, with rich text editing capabilities and supports Markdown syntax. It provides a more visual and intuitive experience than the Markdown editor while still being more flexible than the WYSIWYG editor.
You can switch to the new editor from the right-side menu, Article settings > Editor

Enhancement
1. API Documentation
CI/CD flow in the API documentation
We have added CI/CD flow as a source type in the API documentation. This helps you to resync the spec file without manual effort seamlessly.

API reference endpoints
API Reference endpoints can now be accessed to perform basic API Documentation functionalities.
2. Localization
Default language selection
Earlier, 'English' was the default language in a workspace, and you cannot change this setting. Now we have introduced the option to set any language as a default language. In your Document360 project's Knowledge base portal go to Settings > Knowledge base portal > Localization & Workspaces, and click on the edit icon next to the Workspace. In the available languages, click the ••• option and select "Set as default".
New languages added
We have added four more languages to the localization and translation feature of Document360.
Language | Code |
|---|---|
Bulgarian | bg |
Hungarian | hu |
Lithuanian | lt |
Slovenian | sl |
Turkish | tr |
3. IdP initiated Single Sign-On (SSO)
Identity Provider (IdP) initiated login is now available for the SAML configuration on Document360. You can enable the "Allow IdP initiated login" toggle from the Knowledge base portal on Settings > Users & Security > SAML / OpenID > SAML > SAML basic configuration.
The IdP supported by Document360 for SAML configurations is Okta, Auth0, and Azure AD.
An exclusive IdP initiated sign-on URL is obtained from the IdP and shared with the SSO users. The SSO users can use the link to log in to the Identity Provider's dashboard, select the configured projects, and access Document360 directly.
