Release Details

New: Webhook Channel

The new Webhook channel is Dittofeed's most versatile channel, allowing API requests to be sent to any number of services from user Journeys. This is great for:

  • Sending messages with your own internal APIs.
  • Supporting messaging channels which Dittofeed hasn't built out dedicated support for.

These use cases span:

  • Sending Slack messages.
  • Native mobile push.
  • Triggering messages from a proprietary email or SMS API.

and more.

New: Admin API

The Admin API allows you to manage your Dittofeed workspace programmatically.

This release exposes several Admin endpoints, including:

These endpoints are prefixed with the path /api/admin. Unlike public /api/public endpoints, Admin API endpoints require an Admin API key.

Improved: Template Publishing Flow

We've released a much-improved template editor that allows you to compare your published templates with your current draft! This change provides a visual warning when you have unpublished changes and buttons for publishing and reverting your draft changes.

Fix: Subscription Link Corner Case

Fixed a corner case with unsubscribe link rendering, which could arise with numeric user IDs.

Improved: Collapsible Template

You can now collapse the user properties panel in the template editor to save space while authoring your template! Thank you, Ananthu Kurup, for contributing this feature!
