WIth thousands of previously asked and answered questions, our Platform Q&A is the fastest growing area in our knowledge base. From the beginning, we have awarded reputation points to Creators who contribute replies (3 points) and answers (20 points) to questions.Effective this month*, we are adding to that incentive by awarding 10 points for marking the correct answer to a question. By taking the time to share your challenges and solutions, you help strengthen our knowledge base for the benefit of others.  *Points will be awarded to those who have marked answers since February 1, 2022Point CriteriaWhen your question has been answered, indicate the reply that best answered your question by clicking on the ‘Solved’ check mark next to the reply.  Select this icon on the replyIf the answer is not in one of the replies, consider adding your own reply to share how you solved the question.How This HelpsMarking your question as solved helps adds value to our community in multiple ways:Other Creators benefit from knowing the answer when they find the question in community.  It rewards the Creator who took the time to help you answer the question, earning them points and progress toward SME status.  If there are multiple replies, it provides clarity on which reply solved your question. It shifts the focus of community contributions to other questions that still need answers.The goal is to improve our answer percentage and provide clear solutions for Creators who read that question in the future. Get StartedThere are many questions in our community that have received replies, but do not have answers marked. Consider looking back through your previous posts and marking answers to open questions. Your profile Posts Look for questions that don’t have a  yet As always, we welcome your feedback in the comments, via direct message here on the Community Hub, or via email at community@unqork.com. Related:  

January was our best month yet on our new Community Hub! Nearly six months since we launched, our community is growing fast with both new members and increased in activity.Congratulations to our newest Subject Matter Experts! The most exciting development of the past few months is the growing number of Creators contributing to our community. In January, we added @Apurva Dhamane as an SME after earning SME status throughout October - December. Today, @Madhura reached the 20 questions answered mark and SME status after earning more than 1500 points from November through January. Over the past few months, Apurva and Madhura have been our top two points earners. Please join me in congratulating them both and thanking them for their contributions to our community. Top contributors on Community Leaderboard In addition to Apurva, Madhura, and our other SMEs, we’ve seen great contributions from these community members:January points leaders@Madhura 548 - SME @Manish Gupta 422 - 2 consecutive months of 200+ points @Apurva Dhamane 357 - SME @Pushparaj 286 - 2 consecutive months of 200+ points @Keerthivasan_RK 277 - 4 consecutive months of 200+ points @Miguel Bendito 263  - 3 consecutive months of 200+ points @Danielle Ferguson 252 - SME @Emet Ozar 200 - SME @B Arvind 169  - 4 consecutive months of 150+ points @Magesh Kumar 167 - SMEShow your gratitude by marking the answer to your questionAs you can see, we have a few more Creators knocking on the door of SME status. As twenty answers is one of the requirements, marking the answer to your question helps those who helped you. In the future, we hope to award points to you as well for helping contribute to our knowledge base.  Community Hub Improvements As our community grows, we are working to improve your experience and building new features to connect you to resources and Creators. Over the past few weeks, we’ve rolled out these improvements: Additional improvements are in the works for each of the next few months, so stay tuned. Feature in Focus: Federated SearchIf you have not yet, take a look at that update on our improved search. Community Hub now offers you the ability to search across nearly all Creator resources. So if you’re looking for an answer or a resource to help, you can cast your net wide across our Q&A, Unqork Academy, Documentation Hub, and even Marketplace listings. Community Events We know that a community is much more than an online forum, it’s also ways to connect, network, and share experiences with other Creators. Increasing opportunities for peer-to-peer connection will be an increasing focus as our community grows. This month, we’re excited about the return of our interactive Creator LIVE! webinar series. Additionally, we’re expanding this series with a second monthly webinar. Additional OpportunitiesYou can also expect us to keep you up-to-date on other webinars and events to connect with experts and learn about Unqork. You’ll find these under our Events menu with recordings posted under our Knowledge Base menu. January Webinar Recordings Feedback welcomeWith that, what do you think? Share your feedback in the replies or please contact me directly with a message on the Community Hub or at community@unqork.com. 

Data Collections are an important aspect of building in Unqork. They can save you from slowing down your modules with too many data tables, and can even be used for pulling in dynamic data. Learn how to start off with Data Collections with our Introduction to Data Collections Course.

When we launched our Community Hub in August, one of the improvements was on-demand access to past Creator LIVE! webinar recordings. We have heard positive feedback that this has been helpful as Creators revisit the presentations or discover them for the first time when searching on the community. Additionally, you may have noticed new types of webinars over the past few months, like our Platform Release Show and Marketplace Spotlights. More webinars and events are in development, beginning with our new monthly Creator Success Hour series of interactive webinars beginning on February 24. Community Hub as your one-stop shop for resourcesAs webinars and events relevant to Creators get scheduled, we will promote them and make them accessible here on Community Hub.To make it easier to find and access recordings to past events, we have added the Knowledge Base menu in our navigation. You can access all of our past Creator LIVE! events, as well as other webinars relevant to Creators.Knowledge Base drop-down menuAdditional ways to access webinar recordingsWebinar recordings will be among the search results when looking for answers or resources on a specific topic. You will also see them Related Posts recommended in the sidebar alongside questions and other posts. So even if you missed that webinar a few months back, you can find and watch it when it becomes relevant to your work.These recording posts are also accessible from the event pages for past events in the Related Posts section under the event details. This is a change from how recordings were previously hosted; while recordings are no longer embedded in the event page, you can still find them by navigating to a past event page. Example of recording on event pagesWatch recordings on Community HubRather than send you to another webpage, you can watch these recordings directly within Community Hub. This allows you to add your questions and comments in the replies below the post. Our team will tag the speakers when necessary to keep the conversation going or get you an answer to your question. Finally, you can also let us know what you thought using the emoji rating for content helpfulness. Unqork Create 2021In addition to webinars, you will see a link to access all the great presentations from our Unqork Create conference. While these recordings are not available to watch directly within Community Hub, we have plans to add them into our Federated Search in the coming the weeks.  

Modularity is an important structural principle in software engineering. It's used to manage complexity and increase system reliability. The process makes managing large systems easier by creating smaller pieces. Without modularity, systems would reach their capacities and collapse under their own weight. To better visualize this concept, imagine building your entire application in one module (woof!)Let's look at how you can take advantage of modularity in Unqork with this Academy Course. 

We have been live on Community Hub for nearly six months and, overall, the transition has been smooth and well received. However, I noticed a trend around replies that suggested our user experience was not as intuitive as it could be. Thanks to some feedback from a few of our Subject Matter Experts, we were able to improve your experience when replying to posts. Quote versus ReplyThe Quote option on each post or reply auto-populates the text of that post into the reply box below the thread. This is helpful for replying directly to a specific post or reply within a long thread. However, it is not necessary to quote the previous post in order to reply. This may have been confusing, as the Reply box was sometimes buried lower on the page. Considerations for QuotingFor long threads, many quotes can make the conversation difficult to read or follow. If you are replying directly to the previously post in the thread, we do not recommend using the Quote option. Alternatively, consider using an @ mention to alert the author or call out a previous reply.What ChangedFirst, we changed how the Quote option looked below each post. Previously, this option was called “Quote and reply” which caused some confusion. Next, we created a more compact and intuitive user experience for posts with zero replies. We have removed the box that indicated 0 replies.Previously, you would see this:Example of previous user experienceThat box took up space and often obstructed the view of the reply box below it.  Now, when a post has zero replies, you will see the Reply box directly below the original post. New user experience with Reply box directly below the original post. Improving Your ExperienceWhile small, we hope these changes improve your experience when replying to and reading threads on our Community Hub. We will continue to test and iterate additional improvements, so stay tuned for future updates.If you have any questions or feedback on this or other Community Hub functionality, you can reach out to me here on the Community Hub or contact our team at community@unqork.com.

Version 1.5 of the Release Management tool brings 3 new features that promise to transform the release & promotion process into an unparalleled version control experience.Unqork’s latest updates for this month bring you Release Management v1.5, a powerful new way to prepare and promote releases with our Release Management tool. These are the three reasons we are excited to be providing Creators this update.1. Create a snapshot of your releaseUsing the Release Management tool to promote a release is now a two-step process: Creating a tagged release (list of applications, modules, and data collections, including a record of the versions of the included modules) Promoting that tagged release Tagging a release creates a snapshot of the release at that moment, keeping its current state frozen in time. When you promote the tagged release to a target environment in the future, the promoted release reflects the versions of the modules as they were when the release was tagged—even if changes have been made since then. This powerful new way to use the Release Management tool brings flexibility to the release management process. Creators can more easily experiment with application changes without losing a record of a previous stable version.2. Release only part of your applicationNow Creators can select a subset of an application’s modules and data collections to include in their release. You can even select modules and data collections from different tagged releases, letting you draw from different snapshots for a single release! With partial application releases, you have more control than ever over the release management process.3. Leverage a new integration APIWith the new Release Management Integration API, you can automate promotion processes via external services. Integrating the release management process into your external continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines is easier than ever. See this release in action 

Take a look at the latest developments of our innovative product, the Unqork Marketplace. Here’s why it is the most efficient way to optimize enterprise no-code application development.Unqork believes in helping developers work smarter, not harder. Through visual interfaces, intuitive business logic, and drag-and-drop components, no-code helps you do just that. With no-code, you can build high-quality applications in a fraction of the time and for a fraction of the cost, all without writing a single line of code. We love no-code development at Unqork, but recently we got to thinking—can we do more? Can we make some aspects of web application development even faster and easier? We wanted to provide more tools, more integrations, and ways to boost efficiency and productivity on Unqork for our Creators (those who develop on the Unqork platform). “We know that the best way to offer these capabilities was by supporting a larger ecosystem around the Unqork platform,” says Warren Chen, our Vice President of Marketplace.And thus, the Unqork Marketplace was born. Nadia Abossein, Lead GTM Product Manager, adds, “It’s one of our top priorities.” Unqork Marketplace now has a robust team of full-time Unqorkers dedicated to its utility, longevity, and development. Here’s the inside scoop on one of our most exciting debuts this year.How the Unqork Marketplace worksThe Unqork Marketplace gives Creators access to a wide array of reliable, easy-to-install tools and capabilities called “assets”. Marketplace assets include applications, templates, integrations, and snippets, all of which can be directly installed into your Unqork environment and used right away. Unqork’s Codeless Architecture enables Creators to browse the Marketplace’s catalog of assets, download the assets they want to use, and seamlessly place them in their application.“The Unqork Marketplace enables Creators to not have to build applications from scratch,” Warren notes. This makes application development on Unqork even more efficient and cost-effective—using pre-built components allows Creators to build apps that are proven to work, reducing errors and improving time-to-market. Also, modifying a Marketplace asset won’t affect any other modules that currently use that component, helping prevent bugs before they take root. We have 65 assets currently available for creators and every month we add five or six new ones to the Marketplace! One newer Marketplace asset worth noting is the For Loop snippet, which enables you to perform a looping command. Performing the same action one at a time isn't efficient—with For Loop, Unqork Creators can eliminate this repetitive task and ultimately develop faster. Set up is quick and easy—simply install the snippet into your environment, access it from the Marketplace snippets section, and drop it onto the canvas of your module.“Snippets are the power behind Marketplace because I know what my clients need me to build. If there are snippets in here that help me build faster, that's the real beauty of Marketplace and that's where the bread and butter is going to be.” — Partner Application SpecialistBy allowing creators to easily access useful pre-built capabilities, Unqork Marketplace acts as a “foundation” for creation on Unqork, to use Nadia’s words. She also points to the Marketplace’s hope to further “democratize and expand access throughout the no-code development process,” helping current and future no-coders build better applications. Whether it’s dragging snippets into modules, starting applications from a template, or scrolling through assets for inspiration, the Marketplace has already made a huge impact. Since its launch this past June, Creators make use of the Unqork Marketplace more than 900 times on a monthly basis! Over a quarter of active Unqork Creators have built within at least one Marketplace listing. Thus far, more than 1,750 modules have been created with a snippet and over 250 applications have been made with the help of templates. What’s next for the Unqork Marketplace?Although the Unqork Marketplace is already an essential toolkit used by 25% of Unqorkers and no-code Creators, we’re constantly looking to do more and push boundaries. Our end goal is to maximize the Marketplace’s value for everyone who uses our platform—individual Creators, entire enterprises, and even other popular platforms.We're focusing heavily on two areas of growth for the marketplace right now—usability and capability. The Unqork Marketplace currently acts as an external hub (and is actually built using Unqork’s no-code platform!), but we’re hoping to integrate it deeper into how builders create on the Unqork platform. This will make it even easier for Creators to leverage assets and add capabilities to their nodes, supporting more seamless builds and modifications throughout the DevOps process.Along with improving the user’s experience of Unqork Marketplace, we want to support as much creativity as possible within the Marketplace itself. Warren explains that one aspect of this includes creating a “formalized process for picking partnerships” that promotes feedback and identifies key Marketplace features. We hope this will give people who use the Marketplace direct influence over what capabilities it leverages—and help us bring even more assets into the Marketplace every month!“Marketplace helps our Creators build faster! It builds confidence in our client when they see how fast we can build.” — Raj Palireddy, Sr. Solutions Architect, Persistent SystemsThe Unqork team also wants to eventually support third-party publishers, enabling them to create and share their assets on the Marketplace and engage directly with Creators. We hope this capability contributes to our long-term vision of having the Marketplace be an Unqork ecosystem, one that promotes collaboration while ensuring Creators get the features they need. “We’re creating the initial foundation for this flow now,” Nadia reveals, “and we’re hoping to bring on our first third-party publishers in the first quarter of 2022.”Even though it’s relatively young, the Unqork Marketplace already provides a massive amount of utility and power to Creators. We know that Unqork Marketplace will only continue to grow it's impact for our customers and Creators. By helping it grow into an ecosystem for Creators that truly integrates with other Unqork capabilities, we hope the Marketplace becomes a core aspect of our Codeless Architecture.Learn more about Unqork Marketplace here and keep checking back for new features, assets, and capabilities!Stay in touch with other no-code developments by subscribing to our newsletter, and schedule a personalized demonstration of Unqork with an in-house expert today.

  The release of 2021.12 was done to provide Unqork Creators with reliability, platform extensibility, and (more) ease of use. Watch our monthly release webinar to learn more.Monitoring & Reliability: Real User MonitoringWe added support for Datadog Real User Monitoring (RUM), making it easier than ever to get in-depth front-end insights into product usage and end-user behavior. Datadog RUM lets you see how your application is performing in your end-user's browser, including the ability to understand exactly what errors they're seeing.Now customers using Datadog can send front-end session data to their Datadog accounts. Alternatively, customers can also send session data to Unqork. By sharing this front-end session data, Unqork gathers data-driven insights on how to improve the platform, as well as how to resolve hard-to-reproduce errors.Platform Extensibility: Insurance IntegrationsThis release brings new insurance-related integrations to the Unqork Marketplace. Carpe Data Business Information: Carpe Data’s Minerva product provides risk insights that help insurers make informed decisions. An algorithm gathers information from across the web, providing up-to-date risk factors and indexes. CoreLogic Generate CLIP ID: CoreLogic provides up-to-date property information.

Unqork 2021.11 introduces dynamic user flows and key integrations for healthcare applications, among other exciting updates.The Screen/Task node, Certificate Management Administration page, and Unqork Marketplace received some major tune-ups for Unqork 2021.11. I am excited to be debuting them, so let’s get right to it! Creator productivity: create dynamic user flowsImagine you want to show a different screen in your workflow based on which state your end-user selects as their residence. In the past, Creators needed to add dozens of Screen/Task nodes, gateways, and logic links to their workflow to make this possible. Now, you can make it happen with a single Screen/Task node, thanks to the new Screen Type setting. Simply select whether to show a static or dynamically-defined module when the workflow proceeds to the Screen/Task node.By choosing “dynamic”, you can display to end-users one of several modules based on the data they submit.For example, you can configure a Dropdown component with a list of all 50 states, and have a different module ID store in the submission for each possible option. If the end-user selects that they live in state X, module ID Y is stored. Then, the Screen/Task node references that stored module ID value to know which module to display.Self-serviceability: easily add, view, and manage mTLS certificatesNow, you can easily manage all mTLS certificates in one centralized location. Use the certificates dashboard to get an at-a-glance view of your certificates, including their status, expiration date, and how many services are linked to the certificate. It's also easier than ever to quickly link multiple services to a single certificate.Learn more about our Certificate Management update here.Platform extensibility: healthcare providers can enjoy powerful new integrationsThe latest batch of Marketplace listings help end-users through several stages of the healthcare journey, from assessing initial symptoms to traveling to their appointment. Workpath Scheduling: Let end-users schedule at-home visits for any service offered by a provider found in Workpath's network Ribbon Health: Make it easy for a new patient to look up doctors in a provider database and filter to find the best fit based on their criteria Uber Health: Provide patients an opportunity to schedule a ride to their appointment with user-friendly inputs for pick up, drop off, price estimates, and ride booking Infermedica Symptoms Tracker: Prompt end-users to provide demographic information and select their symptoms so that they can receive a diagnosis To learn more about how Unqork’s no-code platform works, schedule a personalized demonstration with one of our in-house experts.

New integrations with Uber Health, Workpath, Infermedica and Ribbon Health open up the Unqork Marketplace to healthcare customers.  Unqork has announced the launch of a new suite of healthcare integrations in the Unqork Marketplace, the first no-code marketplace. Pre-built integrations with Uber Health, Workpath, Ribbon Health and Infermedica will be accessible via the Unqork Marketplace as part of an extensive library of no-code assets that can be used to jumpstart healthcare projects and build enterprise software faster, at a higher quality and a lower cost than methods that depend on coding. As the first set of accelerators in the Unqork Marketplace designed specifically for healthcare customers, this launch opens the door for health plans, life sciences companies and providers to reap the benefits of the Unqork Marketplace. “The pandemic has placed a spotlight on the direct link between software and patient care, demonstrating the necessity of digital capabilities for healthcare organizations,” said Kara Dennis, Head of Healthcare, Unqork. “These new integrations connect Unqork’s customers with leading health technology and services, allowing them to maximize the potential of Unqork’s no-code platform to build best-in-class digital experiences. These solutions enhance a healthcare companies’ ability to modernize patient and member experiences, and to optimize internal workflows.” Supporting at-home and on-site patient careFor healthcare organizations using Unqork to modernize member and patient experiences, the Uber Health and Workpath integrations provide essential capabilities for supporting on-site and at-home patient care, respectively. Uber Health’s HIPAA-enabled solutions support healthcare organizations by providing access to stress-free transportation for those they care for. By integrating with the Uber Health platform, Unqork customers will be able to efficiently configure an administrative interface for requesting and managing rides. Leveraging Uber Health, Unqork customers can (a) help their patients get to and from critical office visits, supporting patient retention and adherence to care plans; and (b) help study participants get to study sites, increasing the likelihood of attendance with a tech-forward approach.  Workpath enables healthcare companies to provide on-demand, in-home services by dispatching healthcare professionals to a patient’s home from the company’s nationwide network. The Workpath integration allows Unqork’s customers to quickly configure scheduling capabilities directly in their applications. With Workpath’s API, patients benefit from a white-labeled experience that allows them to provide their information, schedule an at-home visit at their convenience, receive confirmation and real-time notifications, and communicate with healthcare professionals.These integrations support clinical trial enrollment and onboarding for life sciences companies, and enable enhanced member and patient services for payers and providers. Enhancing member servicesFor health plans, providing modern, unified digital experiences for members has become essential. With Unqork, health plans can build prospect portals, member onboarding, and other member experiences with a wide array of self-service tools and health management recommendations, including: Infermedica’s medical guidance platform for pre-diagnosis and triage. Infermedica combines the latest clinical evidence with advanced machine learning to help patients and providers make important healthcare decisions with confidence. With the Infermedica integration, health plans can enhance their member experience with digital front door tools for improved diagnostic accuracy and triage guidance. Ribbon Health’s healthcare data platform provides critical infrastructure that payers, providers, and digital health solutions can use to enable accurate provider directories, reliable referral management, and efficient care navigation. Through the Ribbon Health integration, Unqork’s customers can connect their member experiences with a provider database, giving members the ability to query for in-network doctors and filter to find the best fit for their criteria. To learn more, visit the Unqork Marketplace.

Unqork 2021.10 is our biggest, most important release of the year and has a little something for everyone. We’re really excited to introduce Unqork 2021.10, our biggest release of the year. This update includes a suite of new no-code functionality—some of which our teams have been working on for more than a year. With this release, we are delivering unique benefits throughout your organization. C-level tech leaders will have new tools in their no-code arsenal to rapidly build and effectively manage new applications. Heads of app development will be better equipped to source and organize no-code projects directly in the platform—as well as the ability to more efficiently scale the testing of applications they have. We’ve provided ops and network leaders with the ability to pass data between systems without ever going over the public internet. And as for the developers? Let’s just say there’s going to be a huge difference in the no-code applications you build from here on out and we can’t wait to see what you create. With that, let’s jump into a few of the big changes with 2021.10. New spreadsheet-like functionality   Traditionally many business processes are like an assembly line. One task has to be completed before it goes on to the next worker to do their part. These limitations don’t necessarily reflect the true nature of a modern collaborative business workflow. That’s why we’re proud to introduce Parallel Execution. With Parallel Execution, Creators can build workflows that support simultaneous business processes. Parallel Execution allows you to split business processes into multiple flows, which promotes greater flexibility and a better experience for end-users. This is a huge deal and allows you to bring a new dimension of experience to end-users.Let’s take the example of applying for life insurance. This is an inherently complex process involving multiple stakeholders. Traditionally, certain tasks couldn’t be started until a previous task was first completed. In a typical digital workflow, a broker initiates the application process on behalf of a client and then collects and validates each piece of information. After that, a doctor submits a health assessment. Once that’s submitted, an underwriter needs to review all the records, and after all that, at the end of the assembly line, the broker approves the application.  With Parallel Execution, Creators can build an application in which all tasks can be executed simultaneously by all relevant stakeholders instead of waiting for a previous step to be completed first. As a result, processes move much faster, and ultimately organizations can deliver a superior experience to end-users. Keep your company’s data privateFor many of our customers’ network and security engineers, a direct connection to a SaaS vendor like Unqork is preferred over connections via public service endpoints. With Unqork Private Cloud, your data can now be securely passed between systems without ever traversing the public internet. This is all made possible with brand-new integrations with AWS and Azure. With a direct connection through Unqork Private Cloud, Unqork establishes a dedicated, private connection between the Unqork environment (in an Unqork-managed Azure or AWS VPC) and the customer’s own virtual private cloud (VPC). Track and prioritize projects in your IT backlog Unqork’s new Discovery Hub helps your enterprise efficiently source impactful projects, manage their statuses, and prioritize them based on metrics you set in a single pane of glass. This centralized view provides full transparency into project status as they travel from ideation to production. It makes it easy for application development leads to organize projects and optimize the allocation of resources.Ensure enterprise-quality applications, quicklyOur new Testing Tool helps ensure high-quality applications in a fraction of the time. The Testing Tool allows you to build automated tests for APIs that can be triggered every time a change is made. This new functionality brings Creators closer to the testing process. The tool empowers Creators who know the application best to easily design automated tests to understand if their module is functioning as expected before sending to QA for a more robust analysis. By empowering Creators to build custom automated tests, companies are better suited to ensure quality performance across many applications at scale.By empowering Creators to build custom automated tests, companies are better suited to ensure quality performance across many applications at scale. Find your work and collaborate with colleagues fasterThe platform’s new Advanced Search feature helps Creators find what they need, faster. Before, search was limited to queries against element titles, leading Creators to frequently duplicate browser tabs and manually replace IDs within the URL to locate the items they need.Forget about duplicating browser tabs and copy and pasting long strings of IDs into a URL. Now you can collaborate faster with colleagues and contributors by sharing and searching for relevant element IDs directly in the platform. Search for those IDs (Modules, Workflows, Data Collections, Applications, and Workspaces) right from Quick Search or Advanced Search.More than just a faceliftOver the past two years, our Platform UI team has been hard at work building a world-class design system from scratch. This is the first-ever design system built for an enterprise no-code application platform. This new Redesign is far more than just a facelift, it streamlines the entire user experience to improve learnability and increase Creator productivity. Beginning today, you’ll see the Unqork Redesign in Workspaces, and we’ll roll it out to the entire platform over the coming months.To learn more about how Unqork’s no-code platform works, schedule a personalized demonstration with one of our in-house experts. Also, sign up for the Unqork newsletter to discover more ways no-code is changing the enterprise application industry.Want to learn more about what’s new in this release?
