Release Type: Major

We've been at it again! Taking on your feedback and making Relatable even more powerful. Let's take a look at whats included in the latest release...

Mass Edit

You can now perform mass edits on records in your Relatable views!
If your view displays a single object either by default or by applying filters, you can select multiple records and edit them all at once using mass edit.

While we explored supporting mass edit across multiple objects, it introduces significant technical complexity. For now, mass editing is only available when a single object is in view. However, you can mass edit records in inline views. This means you can update related records directly from the same parent view.

Field History Tracking

Relatable now supports viewing Field History directly in your views.
See changes to tracked fields without leaving the Relatable interface. Ideal for auditing and change tracking.

Freeze Columns

Just like in Excel, you can now freeze columns in your Relatable view. This keeps important data in place as you scroll horizontally, making your data more manageable and readable.

"Load More" Behaviour Configuration

When configuring your Relatable view on a Lightning Page, you now have control over how users load additional data:

  • View All: Opens the full view in a new browser tab.
  • Show More: Loads more records inline without navigating away. The component won't expand and users can use vertical scroll to navigate through results.

Custom Filter Logic

Now you can define custom AND/OR logic to your object filters in the view builder. This ones been a long time coming, enjoy!

Formatting Rules Reordering

You can now reorder both row and column conditional formatting rules.
It was a little annoying having to modify or delete existing rules to get them in the right order. You can now add a new rule, and simply reorder it.

Custom Icons for Views

Personalise your views with custom icons!
You can now replace the default Relatable logo with a Salesforce icon. Further down the line we will cater for custom images and branding.

Set Limits On Wrapped Text Lines

When configuring a text column, now you can choose how many lines of wrapped text to display.

Toggle Hide Inline View Headers

Use the setting icon in a view to hide or show headers on Inline Views.
