• Flexxible Remote Assistance in Portal. Remote assistance can now be executed directly from the Portal, both in the Workspaces view and Sessions.

  Additionally, two new features are included:

  • Simplified Security. Reduces the time needed to initiate a remote support session by between 50% and 85%, speeding up support work.
  • Silent unattended FRA. Allows remote assistance to be carried out without displaying on screen that the operation is underway.

• Flexxible API Gen 2 The new version of Flexxible API has been published, available in preview mode.

  This new generation is designed to offer:

  • A more consistent and easy-to-integrate interface.
  • Better security standards.
  • Greater scalability
  • Alignment with current integration needs.

• Installed applications in workspace groups. The option to check the list of applications installed on devices belonging to a workspace group is added.

  This improvement allows you to view the name, version, and number of devices where the application is installed.

• Remote support results are now reported to Portal more rapidly to improve visibility of session results.
• Resolved an issue where the remote support popup message didn't indicate a second operator connection in unattended mode; the message now reflects multiple operators.
• When two Anydesk sessions connected to the same session, only the notification of the first technician was displayed; now the system indicates multiple technicians connected.

• Scheduling in a workspace group. Allows configuring recurring actions on the workspace group, facilitating the execution of periodic tasks within a single schedule.

• Search for sessions and devices. It is now possible to quickly locate sessions or devices using the Ctrl + K shortcut, enhancing navigation speed and operational efficiency in the Portal.

• License expiration control. Allows configuring automatic email notifications when a license is about to expire.

• Deletion of individual devices. The option to delete devices directly from the Workspaces view table has been added.

• New session view in Portal. Allows real-time monitoring of active sessions on managed devices, facilitating support and real-time incident detection.

• Agent logs in the workspace detail view. Available on devices with FlexxAgent Cross-Platform installed, it allows consulting logs generated by the agent directly from the Portal.

• Create with AI - Reports. Enhances the user experience in generating reports using AI.

🚀 New Features

• DaaS. New unified management capability for virtual environments enabling administration of virtual machines and desktops, catalogs, delivery groups, sessions, and templates from a single control center. Facilitates monitoring of global status, resource optimization, and execution of operational tasks, reducing the complexity of managing this type of infrastructure.

• Webhooks. Allows platform-generated events to be integrated with external systems through configurable HTTP notifications. Each event can trigger automatic actions in third-party tools, enabling advanced automation scenarios.

• Create with AI - Reports. Generate custom reports from natural language requests. AI interprets the query, analyzes the data, and returns results in table format with the possibility to:

  • Refine queries through additional requests
  • Export to CSV
  • Save as reusable report
  • Schedule automated runs
  • Send results by email

🔨 Improvements

• New tab Workspace Groups in the device detail view to identify its organizational membership.

• From Alert Configuration you can now:

  • Edit the severity level of an alert.
