Drive gets a full Explorer-style makeover with drag-and-drop file movement, right-click context menus, and a creation dropdown. Board workflows gain configurable approval comment modes, bulk status updates, and persistent editor layouts. Plus you can now schedule meeting bots to join later.

New Features​

Drive — Explorer-Style File Management​

A major UX upgrade brings Google Drive-like interaction patterns to your file management (#2763, #2764):

  • Drag-and-drop — move files and folders by dragging them, with visual feedback and auto-scroll near edges
  • Right-click context menu — rename, move, share, delete, download, favorite, and more from a context menu
  • Creation dropdown — the My Drive button now opens a menu to create folders, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, or upload files
  • Shared folder badges — shared folders display a person icon so you can instantly tell them apart from your own
  • Smart chevrons — folder expand arrows appear only when subfolders exist, with on-demand loading

Board — Configurable Approval Comment Modes​

Replace the simple "require comment on rejection" checkbox with granular controls (#2774):

  • Per-action modes — set comment requirements independently for approvals and rejections
  • Three options — choose None, Optional, or Required for each action
  • In-flight consistency — approval requests follow the rules that were active when they were created

Board — Workflow-Aware Bulk Status Updates​

Bulk status changes on workflow-enabled columns now respect your transition rules (#2768):

  • Smart filtering — only statuses reachable from all selected rows appear as options
  • Intersection logic — when rows have different statuses, only commonly valid transitions show
  • Clear feedback — shows a message when no common transitions are available

Board — Visual Workflow Editor Persistence​

Your workflow editor layout is now saved between sessions (#2770):

  • Saved positions — drag nodes to your preferred arrangement and it sticks
  • Viewport memory — pan and zoom state restored when you reopen the editor
  • Auto-layout reset — one click to recompute positions from scratch

Meeting Bot — Schedule for Later​

Schedule meeting bots to join at a specific time instead of only immediately (#2741):

  • Date-time picker — choose when the bot should join, from 2 minutes to 90 days out
  • Join mode toggle — switch between "Join Now" and "Schedule for Later"
  • Status tracking — see the scheduled time and status transitions in the bot list

AI Usage Dashboard​

Track your workspace's AI usage with a dedicated dashboard in workspace settings (#2761):

  • Usage overview — see total usage across all AI features with cost breakdowns
  • Daily chart — visualize daily AI costs over time
  • Per-feature breakdown — understand which features consume the most AI resources

Bug Fixes​

  • Board: Kanban drag-and-drop now opens the transition dialog for required fields instead of blocking the move (#2772)
  • Board: deleting a column now cleans up stale required field references in workflow transitions (#2773)
  • Board: workflow transition dialog now shows proper member pickers for people columns and file upload for file columns (#2771)
  • Board: SLA columns now sort correctly by elapsed time (#2769)
  • Board: fixed formula lookups not propagating correctly (#2765)
  • Board: fixed add row form modal (#2760)
  • Board: fixed column number format display (#2754)
  • DocSign: each signer now gets a unique color in the PDF field editor, fixing cases where two signers could share the same color (#2767)
  • Docs: draft title, cover, and icon changes no longer leak to the public document until you explicitly publish (#2766)
  • Docs: fixed document import failing for all file types in the import dialog (#2758)
  • Docs: fixed public documents with emoji icons sometimes showing a blank page (#2762)
  • Chat: fixed messages not caching correctly when navigating between conversations
  • Meeting Channels: fixed guest page initialization and participant enter/leave sounds

Improvements​

  • Docs — table of contents now truncates long headings, stays above cover images, and highlights headings when clicked (#2759)
  • Board — row activities redesigned with bubble-style messages and instant optimistic updates (#2753)
  • Audio — smoother sound playback with adaptive throttling instead of fixed intervals
