• 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.
