We have extended the deadlines for our latest Unqork Community Hackathon focused on Integration Gateway. Now, you can sign up to participate through Thursday, April 4. Participants will then have until Monday, April 29 to submit their hackathon entries. New Participation Option Double Points for Full Participants Learn about Integration GatewayHackathon details:  New Participation OptionThe primary goal with our community hackathons is to help Creators increase their Unqork experience and expertise by getting hands-on with the latest features. We’ve heard that finding the time to build a full working application may not be possible for everyone interested in participating. Based on this feedback, we added an additional option for participating in the hackathon. Recipe-only ParticipationRather than build a fully functional application, you can participate by getting stated with hands-on exploration of Unqork’s Integration Gateway. Ensure Integration Gateway is enabled in your staging environment Details here and in the sign up confirmation Build at least one integration recipe Complete the training course from Unqork Academy Tell us about your recipe in a short submission formParticipants will earn 100 points as well as the Hackathon Participant badge. However, only full applications will be eligible for additional awards and prizes. There is also no team category for recipe-only participation. Sign-up to participate Double Points for Full ParticipantsFor those who build and submit a full working application, we are doubling the points to 200. You will also earn the Hackathon Participant badge and your entry will be reviewed by our judges.Finalists for both the individual and team categories will be invited to showcase their application, as well as receive additional points, badges, and prizes.See the event page for full details.  Learn about Integration GatewayDemo: Integration Gateway Academy Course Documentation Integration Administration How to: Create Connections and Recipes Using the Integration Gateway How to: Create On-Prem Agents Using the Integration Gateway How to: Get Salesforce Contact Records How to: Create Salesforce Contact Records Webinars Ask the Expert: Integration Gateway (recording from October 2023) Ask the Expert: Integration Gateway, including On-Prem connections (recording from March 14, 2024)

Earlier this month, we began rolling out a small user experience improvement on the Unqork Community Hub. Now, questions with a marked answer become closed for commenting one week after the answer is marked. You will still be able to like replies, but you will not be able to reply on the thread. More details below.  FAQWhy close comments? We noticed a trend of follow-up questions on many of our thousands previously answered questions. Often times these follow-up comments and related questions go unaddressed; this is likely due to: Question displays as answered in activity feeds, thus Creators are less likely to click into the thread to see the response (and thus, help respond). Creators who participated in the original thread may no longer be active. Following a new conversation on a previously answered thread can be confusing; others may not know whether the follow-up has been answered. That’s not the experience we want you to have when you’re looking for answers in the Unqork Community. Now, when you view a previously answered question, a message will show letting you know if commenting has been closed.  What if I have a related question? We recommend you create a new question, referencing the previous question. If the question is recent, it might be helpful to @ mention the Creator who provided the accepted answer. New questions have a 99% probability of receiving at least one helpful reply, and we typically see monthly averages of 75-80% of questions solved.  New questions benefit from incentives like Featured Questions, Answer Hero, and Problem Solver badges.  We want to recognize and reward the Creators who help answer your questions, especially if they are pursuing SME status. Answering your question earns them at least 20 points.   What if I need the thread re-opened?If the question was incorrectly marked as solved or if there’s a new insight to share, you can use the flagging feature (the *** menu in the bottom right) to flag the post and request it re-open.  Why one week? This allows time for follow-up questions and comments, whether it be a “thank you!” reply, a clarifying question, or an additional insight to share.  Related 

We are excited to share the details of our latest Unqork Community Hackathon. In this asynchronous competition, Creators are asked to build a working application that leverages Unqork’s Integration Gateway and other new features.Earn bragging rights, points, badges, Unqork swag, and other recognition as you showcase your expertise and sharpen your configuration skills. In this postHow it works Recipe-only Participation  Timeline Individual and Team Categories F.A.Q. Who can participate? What’s different from previous Unqork Hackathons? How do I enable Integration Gateway in my environment? How do I use Integration Gateway? Does Unqork offer dedicated support for Hackathon participants? How do I sign up? Is there a time limit? How much time will it take to participate? How do I get started? Who will see my application? Can I submit more than one application? I don’t think I’ll win, why should I participate? Okay, but what are the prizes? Do you have any examples I can review?  What if I have other questions?   How it worksSign-up on the event page: This is how you receive the submission form and also let us know you plan to participate.  Deadline March 25, 2024 Build on your own or with your team: Just be sure to submit by the deadline.  This is an asynchronous hackathon for our Creators all around the world! No time minimum or maximum. Submit your app: Use the submission form (emailed to you in step 1) to submit the following: Short video explanation and demo of the application (~10 minutes) Short description of the application Details on the usage of Integration Gateway Recipe-only Participation Don’t have time to build a full working application, but still want to participate? We’ve added a new option to participate: TimelineApril 4: Deadline to sign up April 29: Entries due May 3: Judging Complete, Finalists Determined Mid-May: Showcase Event with FinalistsJudges will select finalists for both the individual and team categories, then we’ll schedule a live showcase for the audience to determine the winners.  Individual and Team CategoriesHackathon entries may be submitted to one of two categories: individual or team. You may compete individually or partner with others in a teams of 2 or 3. Each Creator should sign up individually to ensure you receive the necessary details and communications. F.A.Q.In addition to the details on the event page, below are some anticipated questions you might have. We’ll update this blog with other frequently asked questions as they occur.  Who can participate?Any Creator in our community: customer, partner, Unqork staff, and even those still considering and exploring Unqork. The only requirement is that you have Creator access to an environment. (If you’re able to log in to the Community Hub, you have the right access.)Note: While Unqork staff are welcome to participate, we’ll be limiting the competition to non-staff Creators. You can still earn 100 points for participating and showcase your expertise and creativity if you approve us to share your app with the community.  What’s different from previous Unqork Hackathons?This time, Creators are required to build the application within your company’s staging environment. Previously, we’ve had hackathon participants build their applications in Unqork’s Training Environment; however, Integration Gateway access is not provided for Unqork’s Training Environment.  How do I enable Integration Gateway in my environment?First, check to see if it may already be enabled. From our Academy course: How to check if Integration Gateway is enabled in your environmentIf you do not see Integration Gateway as an option, work with your environment administrator(s) to request access. Your administrator(s) will need to agree to the additional Terms & Conditions (a link we provide when you sign up), which will kick-off the processes for Unqork to add it to your environment. Additionally, you will need to work with your environment administrator(s) to ensure you have the appropriate role-based access permissions to allow for setting up and editing integration services.  How do I use Integration Gateway?Check out our these learning resources from Unqork: Academy Course Documentation Integration Administration How to: Create Connections and Recipes Using the Integration Gateway How to: Create On-Prem Agents Using the Integration Gateway How to: Get Salesforce Contact Records How to: Create Salesforce Contact Records Webinars Ask the Expert: Integration Gateway (recording from October 2023) Ask the Expert: Integration Gateway On-Prem (live on March 14, 2024, available on the community afterwards) Additionally, we recommend these Automation Pro Certificate courses from Workato for detailed training on the Workato-specific aspects of Integration Gateway.  Does Unqork offer dedicated support for Hackathon participants?In addition to the learning resources above and our always-on Community Hub, questions tagged with Integration Gateway are routed to the Unqork Product and Engineering teams for Integration Gateway. This way, they have real time visibility into questions and can help answer them on the community. If you’re in need of additional support, work with your primary Unqork contact to request options.  How do I sign up?We’re asking you to sign up via the event page. When you sign up, you’ll receive the link for submitting your application. This helps us know who is planning to submit an application for the Hackathon. It’s helpful in case we need to send you any updates, like if we decide to extend the deadline or if there’s any other guidance we have to give.  Is there a time limit? How much time will it take to participate?We believe you can and should participate in this Hackathon even if you only spend a few hours on your app. While there is no time limit, there’s also no time minimum. If you only have an hour or two to spare, we recommend the steps in the next question. So then, why the long timeline? As an asynchronous competition, we’re allowing plenty of time for you to build your application whenever you have some free time to explore. Whether that means working for a few hours in one sitting or for a few minutes here and there across a few weeks.  How do I get started?The primary focus of these Hackathons is to give you a fun reason to explore new functionality and fine tune your skills as a Creator. Getting started means first familiarizing yourself with these new grid components. Sign up via the event page. Ensure Integration Gateway is enabled for your staging environment (see above) Review the documentation and other learning resources.  Come up with your application use case. It can be simple; it cam be complex. It can be fun, it can solve a business problem. Whatever use case you can think of to meet the criteria outlined on the event page. Outline your general config. Develop a plan; map out how you might build this application. This will save you time and help you manage the time you spend building.  Start building! Who will see my application?Due to the change of building within your company’s staging environment, no one will have direct access to your application. Instead, you will be asked to submit a video demo and overview of your configuration. Initially, just our judges our judges will review these videos. If you’re chosen as a finalist, you will be asked to demo your application on a live showcase event. In that case, many more will see your application demo on the live event, post-event recording, and post-event marketing materials (if you approve).  Additionally, we hope that not finalist participants will opt-in to sharing your application in posts like this on the Community Hub. This will help other Creators learn from your work by watching the video, asking questions, or maybe even sharing advice.  Can I submit more than one application?Absolutely! Any submissions received by the deadline will be considered. In fact, I’ll give you 100 points for each application you submit. I don’t think I’ll win, why should I participate?This is a fun way to explore functionality you might not yet have a use case for in your day job. Maybe you’re early on in the build of your application, maybe you specialize with data workflow, but don’t get to configure the UI, maybe you’re part of a large team and don’t get to design or make the big decisions on your apps.With this Hackathon, you get to own every part of building a (small) application, as well as having the freedom to get creative or have fun with your use case!  Okay, but what are the prizes?Each participant will receive 100 points, as well as the Hackathon Participant badge on their Community profile. Finalists each more points, more badges, and more prizes. More details on the event page.  Do you have any examples I can review? Absolutely! If you haven’t yet, consider watching the recordings of our first  and second Hackathon Showcase events. You’ll see our four finalists demo their applications. Additionally, you can watch previous winners, @Pushparaj and @PriyankaS explain their winning configuration in more detail on these recordings: Pushparaj & Priyanka.Finally, you can find all four of our finalists’ applications, plus a few others, in our Use Case Showcase forum. These posts include their description, as well as links to review both the configuration and the Express preview of the application.  What if I have other questions? Reply below, send me a message, or email to community@unqork.com

Announced with Unqork’s Winter 2024 Platform Release, Embedded UI allows users to create composite applications by configuring and reusing standard components that can be securely embedded into any internal or external application.Thierry Bonfante, Unqork’s Chief Product Officer, describes the business value in his latest blog: Simply put, you can drive digital transformation in a completely modular way while leveraging Unqork’s first-rate security.Composite apps also drive standardization. For example, over the years, large enterprises will have many flavors of similar functions, all behaving slightly differently and all implemented in different tech, therefore confusing end-users and increasing the cost of ownership. With composite apps, you can build a solution once in Unqork and inject it across all those use cases, increasing consistency in your processes while driving the cost down.Ask the Expert Demos & Documentation Learn about Vega Unqork’s Winter ‘24 Release Ask the ExpertOn March 7, Unqork Creators can join a live Codeless Classroom webinar to learn about Embedded UI from one of Unqork’s Lead Product Manager, Patrick Quinn. Attendees can submit questions in advance via the registration form or ask them during the live event. The recording (and all the answered questions!) will be posted to the Community Hub following the webinar. Demos & DocumentationBefore joining the webinar, we recommend that you review the demo below, as well as our Embedded UI documentation. See additional demos here in our Use Case Showcase forum:  Learn about VegaEmbedded UI is part of Unqork’s Vega Feature Suite and Runtime. These capabilities seamlessly integrate with existing Unqork applications, allowing for incremental adoption without the need for migration.Recommended read: Introduction to VegaVega is Unqork’s new suite of solutions powered by Unqork’s next-generation codeless runtime (Runtime v2.0.0).

We are excited to share details of the upcoming 7.2 release of the Unqork Platform. Review the 7.2 Platform Release Notes for full details, including dates for Staging, UAT, and Production releases across the release cohorts for Early Release, Generally Available, and Exception. Stay tuned for more details!Next week, we will share more details on the exciting enhancements in this release, including webinars and opportunities to learn more. Until then, review the release notes and corresponding documentation for details. 

On February 1, 2024, Unqork hosted a Codeless Live Build Challenge with ATARC (Advanced Technology Academic Research Center). Teams of three Creators built working applications within 45 minutes, leveraging pre-built templates and accelerators, demonstrating how quickly a working prototype can be built on Unqork. Here are the results of our participating partner teams: 🏆 KPMG and their Medicare Claims solution as the Overall Winner 🏆 ICF and their Cybersecurity Credentials Tracking solution as the Best UI Winner 🏆 Auxo Solutions and their Loan Underwriting solution as the Most Complex Winner 🏆 Koniag and their Rural Development Grants Management as the Most Impact to the Mission Winner 🏆 AidenAI and their Employee Onboarding as Most Repeatable WinnerWe plan to share demos of each team’s application, so stay tuned for more details. Congratulations to the participating Creators, who have all earned the Hackathon Participant badge and 100 points for their Unqork Community profiles. Additionally, congratulations to the KPMG team for earning the Hackathon Winner badge and points. 

I am excited to roll out our new Troubleshooting forum and Problem Solver badges, the latest enhancements to our Unqork Community experience.  Troubleshooting ForumOn average 20-30% of questions asked on our community are troubleshooting in nature. You have the module configured the way you want, but something is not quite working. Or perhaps you just can’t quite find what is causing that error. Platform Q&A vs TroubleshootingOur community has been fantastic in solving problems, averaging >75% monthly solution rate for more than a year. This new forum helps segment and focus the different types of questions we receive on the community. When should you use each? Platform Q&A is best for questions about functionality and new configuration: “Can I do {configuration} with Unqork?” “How do I configure {use case} with {component or feature name}?” “What component should I use for {use case}?”    Troubleshooting is best for solving issues and existing configuration:  “I thought I had this right, but it’s not working.”  Unexpected behavior Solving errors or data issues Post your question in the wrong forum? If I, or others, notice a question is misplaced, I can move it to the correct place. As is the case already, some questions might not be solved on the community and may require *support. Starting your troubleshooting on the community can be helpful in crowdsourcing perspectives and ruling out possible causes before you need to reach out to support. Problem Solver BadgesWith this new forum, we are also introducing a new type of community recognition. Solving troubleshooting questions relies on specific skills and expertise. It requires a strong understanding of- and experience with- the Unqork platform, as well as curiosity and/or initiative to find the solution.Problem Solver badges recognize Creators who provide answers to questions within the Troubleshooting forum. There are 5 tiers to the Problem Solver badge, earned with every 5 answers provided. This is similar to our Answer Hero and monthly Leaderboard badges. Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 5 answers 10 answers 15 answers 20 answers 25 answers Answers within the Troubleshooting Forum  Extra Recognition at Level 5When you reach Level 5 with 25 answers to questions in the Troubleshooting forum, we’ll recognize the tremendous impact you’ve made with a special Level on your profile and Community Leaderboard, as well as an exclusive Credly badge you can add to your Linkedin. Problem Solver will display by your username on the community (see below) Problem Solver will display as your level on the Community Leaderboard Credly badge can be added to Linkedin profile or resumeHow it displays on your profileHow it displays behind your posts and repliesFAQDo previously provided answers count towards Problem Solver badges? Yes! Over the next few days, we will move past questions into the Troubleshooting forum. If you have previously provided the answer, it will count in your progress towards Problem Solver badges.    How do Troubleshooting answers and Problem Solver badges work with SME status?  The answers required for earning SME status are agnostic to which forum the question sits within. Both Platform Q&A and Troubleshooting answers count towards SME status, as do any other answers in other forums (or that may have been archived).  Problem Solver badges are in addition to SME status. You can achieve both SME status and the level 5 Problem Solver badge. When you do so, both will show near your username like in the examples above.*Note: If your issue is critical or time sensitive, you should reach out to support. While community questions have a high solution rate and typically receive timely responses, there is no guarantee your question will receive a response within a specific time frame. We use Featured Questions to help with this, but it does not ensure an answer.  

The latest addition to Unqork Academy is a new course on a highlight from our Fall 2023 release: Unqork’s Integration Gateway. In this course, you will learn about accessing Integration Gateway, as well as how to create connections, recipes, and on-prem agents.For more on Integration Gateway, check out the course (🙂) or the announcement below.   

It has been awhile since we last shared an update on additions and updates to our Unqork Platform Documentation. However, our team has been hard at work building resources to support the many enhancements and innovations in development. Below you will find highlights of our latest additions to our Documentation Hub, as well as some key Academy courses to prepare you for upcoming releases. Additionally, you can expect a return to more regular documentation updates via our Updates blog. As a reminder, you can find these articles and guides in our Documentation Hub which is linked in the navigation menu, as well as via federated search here on the Community Hub.New DocumentationSome of these articles refer to enhancements slated for upcoming releases and/or in early access programs.

Notification settings are now clearer and simpler when editing your Unqork Community profile.Previously, settings for email notifications were grouped together with general profile settings and featured an radio button style that could be unclear. Now, notifications are in a separate settings menu when you edit your profile and feature a clearer toggle format. Find these settings in the profile dropdown menu in the upper right corner On the Roadmap: Notification CenterOur community platform vendor is working on an in-community notification center similar to Linkedin and other social platforms. This enhancement should expand options for notifications beyond just email.While we do not have estimated timelines, recent updates have me optimistic it will be available in the coming months. Concept image from Gainsight for Notification Center enhancement

Unqork Data Modeling lets you create similar data structures for your Unqork applications without the burden of using code. Once you create your data models, you can apply them to your modules. From there, simply drag and drop the fields where you want them in the Module Builder.In addition to the documentation for Unqork Data Modeling, we have a new Unqork Data Modeling course on Unqork Academy for self-guided learning. Introducing the Data Modeling's Query BuilderVisual Query Builder provides a new and intuitive way for Creators to create customizable, reusable, and high-performing queries on their data sets. Once a query has been created it can be accessed through a Plug-In component to retrieve the pre-filtered data into your modules. Query Builder includes support for accessing data created with the Data Modeling feature set and existing submissions created by your application.EARLY ACCESS  This is an early-access feature. To get access, please contact your Customer Success Representative. Introducing On-Prem Groups with Unqork’s Integration GatewayYou can now connect to on-premises (or on-prem) systems using Unqork's Integration Gateway. These systems can include apps (Jira and Sharepoint) enterprise resource planning (ERP) software (SAP and Oracle), databases, and much more. This feature lets you group one or more on-prem agents and create a secure connection between your organization's systems and Unqork.EARLY ACCESS  This is an early-access feature. To get access, please contact your Customer Success Representative. Introducing Application Performance MonitoringApplication Performance Monitoring (APM) continuously monitors Unqork application performance, availability, and overall health by analyzing various metrics. That way, you can minimize downtime and optimize performance. Unqork's APM feature now supports Datadog and Splunk integration. Enhancements & Bug Fixes APIs Audit Logs: Added support for the new add-module audit log endpoint.

Uniform Grid component: Fixed an issue where Dropdown components inside a Uniform Grid component did not display tooltip values.Module Builder Modules: When copying a module dependent other modules, Data Collections, or workflows, elements you do not have permission to view are removed.

Today we are excited to announce our Fall 2023 Release and introduce the next generation of our Unqork platform built entirely on codeless architecture and without using code!Fall ‘23 ReleaseFrom the release blog:Unqork, the leading codeless platform, today announced the next generation of the Unqork platform built entirely on codeless architecture and without using code, starting with its Integrated Development Environment (IDE), UDesigner, and Integration Gateway releases.

What sets this release apart is that our team built these features entirely on our codeless platform passing the product version of the “Turing Test.” After decades of building software with different languages and technologies, it is an amazing feat to get to the point where our team can build – and actually prefers to build – with our own codeless platform.  As we call it, we “drink our own champagne.”Thanks to our extraordinary team and the power of Unqork, in just one quarter, we were able to concept, build, and launch the first Integrated Development Environment (IDE) designer without a single line of code, which will in-turn help our customers unlock faster innovation. Compared to the years this would have taken with traditional coding, this is a testament to Unqork's technology. [...]It’s time to embrace the future of codeless, and I’m excited to be a part of Unqork who is leading the charge. Explore Unqork's latest release and witness how software will be built!

Last September, we launched Featured Questions to help improve your Q&A experience. As a result, we’ve dramatically improved our Q&A answer rate (up 30%!) and response rate. Additionally, 140+ (57%) of Featured Questions were marked as answered, an incredible improvement on questions that had previously gone without any reply.  Introducing Answer Hero Badges!One year later, it’s time to recognize those contributing to this success and incentivize continued participation.Now, when you provide the answer for Featured Questions, you progress towards earning Answer Hero badges. Additionally, you will receive Unqork Swag as a thank you gift. Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 5 answers to Feat. Q’s 10 answers to Feat. Q’s 15 answers to Feat. Q’s 20 answers to Feat.

You can be both an SME and Answer Hero. SME status is based on total questions answered and other criteria.  Answer Hero badges are based on answers for Featured Questions.    Q: Are there bonus points for Answer Hero badges?  No. ...and yes. You earn these badges by answering Featured Questions, which offer bonus points for replies and answers.    Q: How can I track my progress?  When you reach a new level at 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25 answers, you will be notified with a message when you you receive the badge.  If you want to check your status, send me a message or email community@unqork.com.    Do previous answers count?  Answers for all Featured Questions count (dating back to September 2022). We will retroactively award badges to those that have already earned them with this criteria.
