Updated Builder

We're excited to finally launch this update as its been something we've been working on for quite some time. This is a first step towards our goal of making the Tadabase Builder stunnning, sexy and quicker than ever. 

Here's a non comprehenisve list of the apparent updates. 

New signin pages: 

Cleaner with some updates behind the scenes to streamline the sign in and signup process. 

We've also removed the SSO that are very rarely used. This new signup page will also serve as a custom signup page for partners and affiliates for easy tracking and attribution. More on this to come. 

App List Page

We've made many changes to the app list page, most of which are more applicable for users with muliple apps. 

New Navigation

The first thing you'll notice is the navigation has been moved. User menu is now at the top-right-hand side of the screen to ensure the Intercom chat widge can be tucked away at the side. 

Screenshots

See a screenshot of the apps homepage when viewing your list of apps. If a custom icon was utilized, the screenshot will not appear. 

App Sharing

See who has access to an app from the list view and add or remove access as necessary. 

Loading Screen: 

New and faster loading of apps. 

New Design and colors

Of course, that's the first thing you'll notice. A design slightly easier on the eyes with more consistent colors and font schemes. 

Quick Navigation

Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + K to easily find and navigate to any part of your app. Or press on the search bar at the top to open the quick navigation search window. 

Start typing, use the up and down arrows or the Tab keys to navigate between items and categories.

Data Builder

Lots of big and small updates to the data builder when it comes to fields, rules filtering and more. 

Default Fields

By default, every table now comes with 3 default fields. 

  1. # (Auto Increment)
  2. Record ID (the encoded record ID)
  3. Created At

These fields are not editable but can be used like any other field throughout your app. 

Removed Several Fields

The auto increment field as well as File and Image fields have been removed. The auto increment field was the cause of many complex issues. We've removed it going forward in favor of using a more managed approach on the database level, vs application level. The Image and File field were not necessary when considering the Attachments field was far more robust and had all the features the File field had. 

Updated Option Fields

Option fields now have an easier to use interface and does not require saving twice for updates to apply. 

Connection Field  Updates

Viewing and managing connections from the data builder is now cleaner and seperated from the rest of the fields. 

Improved Searching

Many new  updates in the searching of records. Including a native ability to search by record ID. 

Autocomplete fields and values

When using filters and sorting, the field dropdowns are now autocomplete fields to help you find the field and value quicker. 

Copy Field Values

When looking at the data builder, selecting a cell and Ctrl + C will copy whatever the field contains. No longer needed to inline edit and then copy the value. 

Attachment Field Updates

The attachment fields will now show icons and be easeier to manage in the grid and details view in the builder. 

Filtering Updates

  • Filters will now show how many applied filters exist on the current view

  • Clicking away from a filter while adding a filter will save the added filters. 

Pagination Updates

Change pages directly when viewing the page numbers. 

Refresh Record

When looking at a record you can refresh the record with the new "Refresh" button on the page: 

New Stats Window

The data table stats will now open in a new and cleaner window

Page Builder

In the page builder, you can now collapse all layouts to compress the pages and more quickly find the page you're looking for. 

PDFs Navigation

PDFs are now in their own menu instead of under automations. 

Pipes

Group API calls

Group similar api calls to keep the api calls structured in an organized fashion.
