New in Docs: smarter automation management

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday!

We’ve got more new features, and this set is all about smarter automation management. These updates will make it easier to build, browse, and manage your automations.

Here’s what’s new:

1. Understand what your automations do at a glance

Automations now show a clear description and an icon matched to their action, so you can scan the panel and know what each one does without clicking in. Descriptions are editable if you want to fine-tune or write your own.

2. Resize the automations panel

Widen the panel so you can see more while you build, browse, or review your automations.

3. Drag to reorder automations

Organize your automations in the order that makes sense for you and your team by dragging them into place.

4. Jump to buttons and tables from automation settings

Go right to the specific button or table your automation references from the automations panel. The same shortcut also works from the button configuration menu.

5. Turn off all automations at once

Disable every automation in a doc with a single click, instead of opening each one individually. Especially handy right after you copy a doc, so the copies don’t run twice.

6. Jump to failing automation from notifications

Notifications about automation errors now take you straight to the relevant automation itself, not just the doc it lives in.

Why it matters

These updates make automation management feel less like a scavenger hunt. Whether you’re building something new, reviewing what’s running, or debugging something that broke, you now have clearer context and faster paths to what you need.

Go try these out! We’d love to hear what you think.

Well done to everyone involved in this update!

A really solid piece of product engineering, well archiected, focused on solid value delivery, and well thought out from the makers point of view.

AND..

It shows that building solutions (dare I say applications) with Suprrdocs really is valued and understood by the company (there are many who feared otherwise)!

Impressive.:collision:

This is a great update, very much needed and often asked for, like @Elise_Tarabiscode.com said, the reordering and the direct link to errors are crucial for working efficient. merci!

If I may add a suggestion (you know, some folks are never pleased :winking_face_with_tongue:) - could you add a search bar at the top of the list? My current workaround is to use Ctrl+F in the browser and search in names/descriptoins.

suggestions welcome! Search would be helpful for automation organization and navigation - we’ll add it to our backlog!
