  • New Feature: Delete or Restore Workspaces and Cards

    Deleted something by accident? It happens. Cards you delete now sit in your workspace trash indefinitely, so you can restore them whenever you need them back. And if an entire workspace gets deleted, admins and owners can recover it from Organization Settings. Nothing to configure — this is on by default.

  • New Feature: Review & Assign Unscheduled Work With Calendar Companion

    Coast’s product team recently released our new Calendar Companion feature that allows users to easily review and assign unscheduled work in Calendar View.

    Coast’s product team recently released our new Calendar Companion feature that allows users to easily review and assign unscheduled work in Calendar View.

    Previously, users were unable to see cards with no date in the Calendar View, making it difficult to schedule unscheduled work. Now, you can open up the Calendar View in your Work Orders & PMs workplace, where you’ll find all the work that has yet to be scheduled.

    You can filter your tasks to find specific types of cards and drag them to exactly where you’d like them to be scheduled on the calendar. You can also narrow down the view to weekly and group by Assignee or any tag. Then, drag and drop the tasks, assigning them to individual team members and adding a date in a single action. 

    To check out this new update, navigate to Coast’s Calendar View on desktop. Or you can follow the demo below:

     Through this update, Coast users can now:

    • Review unscheduled work in Calendar View
    • Filter by work types
    • Drag and drop work into the calendar
    • Balance out the workload by assigning to individual team members

  • Product Update: Share Workflows With Data Between Organizations

    Coast’s product team recently released an update that allows users to share workflows and the data within those workflows with others outside their organization.

    Coast’s product team recently released an update that allows users to share workflows and the data within those workflows with others outside their organization.

    We already highlighted how to share workflow setups with partners, vendors or other Coast organizations without data. Now, let’s include the workflow data.

    Start by duplicating a section to ensure you aren’t sharing links to live workflows you’re actively using. From there, make any changes or remove any fields/data you don't want shared. Then, simply create an install link to share the workspace or workspace section. Recipients then use the link to install a copy of the workflow and its data into their own organization. This is especially helpful for consultants and multi-org customers that previously had no way to distribute standardized workflows across accounts.

    To check out this new update, navigate to a Coast workspace or section. Or you can follow the demo below:

     Through this update, Coast users can now:

    • Create an install link from the Workspace menu or Workspace Section three-dot menu
    • Send a preview and install wizard (set members, name the workspace) to recipients
    • Enable/disable toggle to control link access
    • Reuse the same link for multiple installs
    • Install a copy of the current state (no ongoing sync to the source)

  • New Feature: Next-Previous Card Navigation

    Coast’s product team recently released a new card navigation feature that makes it easier to navigate through expanded card details in quick sequence.

    Coast’s product team recently released a new card navigation feature that makes it easier to navigate through expanded card details in quick sequence.

    Now, when you open a card from a collection view, you will see arrows to the left and right of the card modal. If the card you clicked is in a group (i.e., a column on a board view), only the cards in that group will be shown as you click left and right.

    Note: When you make changes to a card and click save, the card will no longer auto-close, allowing you to keep clicking through the other cards in the set and make other changes or leave comments. The modal now also shows a close button, and clicking close or clicking outside the modal will return you to the collection view. 

    When you click a related card (or a referenced-in card), that card will be shown, and the left-right arrows will no longer be shown. The modal will show a back button instead of a close button. Clicking back (or making a change to the related card and clicking save) will return you to the original card.

    You can drill down from related card to related card as many times as you want, and then click back to the original card. When you're back to the original card, the modal will show a close button in the top left again, and the left-right arrows will reappear.

    This new feature allows users to go into a section and review each open card quickly without having to close and open every card, reducing clicks and saving time in the process. Check it out by clicking into a Coast workspace or section. Or you can follow the demo below:

     Through this update, Coast users can now:

    • See left-right arrows next to the card modal.
    • Click on the arrows to quickly review open cards back-to-back.
    • Make changes to a card, click save and keep the card open. 
    • Quickly see a related card by clicking on it.

  • Product Update: Share Workflows Between Organizations

    Coast’s product team recently released an update that allows users to share workflows with users outside their organization.

    Coast’s product team recently released an update that allows users to share workflows with users outside their organization.

    Previously, customers that wanted to share workflow setups with partners, vendors or other Coast organizations had to manually recreate them. Now, users simply create install links for workspaces and workspace sections to start. Recipients then use the link to install a copy of the workflow into their own organization. When they install the link, they should log into the organization where they want the workspace or workspace section to live. This is especially helpful for consultants and multi-org customers that previously had no way to distribute standardized workflows across accounts.

    To check out this new update, navigate to a Coast workspace or section. Or you can follow the demo below:

     Through this update, Coast users can now:

    • Create an install link from the Workspace menu or Workspace Section three-dot menu
    • Send a preview and install wizard (set members, name the workspace) to recipients
    • Enable/disable toggle to control link access
    • Reuse the same link for multiple installs
    • Install a copy of the current state (no ongoing sync to the source)

    Note: We recommend that you first duplicate the workspace you plan to share. Make any changes or remove any fields/data you don't want shared, and then create a share link from the duplicate. That way you aren’t sharing links to live workflows you’re actively using.


  • Product Update: Duplicate Workspaces & Sections With Ease

    • Easily duplicate workspaces and sections for streamlined workflow management

    Note that if you have more than 200 cards in the workspace or section you would like to duplicate, please contact support.
