What's New

  • Conversational Business Applications. Built on top of the enterprise-grade ‘no-code’ DRUID conversational platform, Conversational Business Applications (CBA) offers a multimodal user experience with DRUID virtual assistants. It enables business users to interact with the virtual assistants though conversations (chat and voice) and also interact with centralized data coming from various data sources via DRUID integrations (data centralized in workspaces with views and forms).

    • Conversational Business Applications enable bot authors to consume the data in entity settings for entities of type dictionary (e.g., products, product types) and also manage the entity records, regardless their data source.

    This features makes DRUID Portal a single-point-of-access for both bot authors and business users.

    For more information, see Conversational Business Applications.

  • Bot authors can now prevent users from clicking the same button twice for Hero cards, Thumbnail steps and Adaptive cards. In this regards, a new setting, InactivateCardAfterUsage is available on these steps configuration.

    • Note:  The option InactivateCardAfterUsage is available on bot framework v4 and works only on DirectLine (web channel).

Improvements

  • A new type of exception is available in [[SystemError]].ExceptionType, OtherException that enriches the types of exceptions that can be treated at runtime on flow steps with input mapping.
