August Highlights: Exports & Custom Fields
In August, the Portal team focused on support for exports across the entire set of Modules, custom fields, and stability.
Exports
With this release we now support CSV exports in every Portal Module, including Forms. For Forms specifically, there are now 3 ways you can export:
- On the main Forms page, you can export the table that lists the form names, number of responses, etc.
- When you click on the actions button for a single form, you can export all form responses for a single form.
- When you click into a form and view a single response, you can click on the actions button in the top-right and export a single form response
Improved Custom Field editing
It's now much easier to edit custom fields directly on the CRM. Simply click on a custom field and you can edit it in-line without navigating to the client details page. In addition, when you edit a custom field, we now surface useful action buttons to save you time. All custom fields let you copy the field value to use elsewhere. And some custom fields have additional actions as well – for example, URL fields surface an action that lets you open links in a new tab.
Folder Uploads
In the Files Module, you can now upload folders from your computer. If the folder you upload contains subfolders, that structure is retained. To upload a folder (1) go to the Files tab, click New, and select the Upload Folder option or (2) repeat the same steps on the client details page.
