Highlights
Introducing our new and improved tree view of the Function Stack
The tree view makes it easy to view your nested functions, drag them in and out of parent functions such as conditionals, copy a function, quick delete, and improved usability and interface.
Updated Airtable Import
Importing from Airtable just got even better! Now, if you import your data from Airtable it will update your existing imported tables.
Upload content from the URL
You can now use the URL path of a file to create file metadata and upload content through the API. Previously the input took either the file itself or a base64 encoded file.
Product Enhancements
[New] What's new: Introducing release notes. We add a ton of new features to Xano on a weekly (and some times more often) basis. You can now find out about what's new and what's been fixed by clicking the link on the left navigation bar within Xano.
[New] Convert API endpoint to function: Convert an API Endpoint to a function with a click. If you have ever created a stack of functions in your endpoint that you wanted to use somewhere else, now you can simply convert it to a function and implement it wherever you need to in your backend.
[New] Easy Authentication token retrieval: Easily retrieve an authentication token for a specified user by entering in their email or ID in the header of an authentication required API endpoint. The token will persist throughout all your other authentication required endpoints during your session to make testing your endpoints a breeze.
[New] Sticky inputs: The debugger now keeps persistent input values. This is great for testing your endpoints with Run&Debug because now you don't have to re-input all the values each time you want to run your endpoint. The values persist per web session, so when you close the tab they are cleared. You can easily reset the values by clicking reset.
[New] Data and time preferences: You can now set your date and time preferences for your instance. On your account page you can change the date format, time format, and timezone offset from the default settings.
[New] Remove array filter: This new array filter removes an element from an array based on the value and an optional path. Previously, you were required to Loop through the array first to accomplish this. Now it's as easy as applying a filter to an array.
[New] Added support for audio/mime file types for uploading through the API: We've added support for audio and mp3 files to be able to be uploaded through the API as an attachment.
[New] New version notification: When we push a new update to Xano, you will be notified with a banner at the top of your browser letting you know it's time to refresh your page to use the latest version of Xano.
