Features and Improvements
New
New DATE_ADD and DATE_SUBTRACT functions in the Workflow Formula step
You can now add or subtract time from a date in the Workflow Formula step using the new DATE_ADD and DATE_SUBTRACT functions. Pick from seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years to build dynamic time-based conditions — like triggering an action a few days before a due date — without tracking dates manually.

Virtual Agent notifications in Slack

Azure DevOps actions in workflows
Added Azure DevOps actions to workflows. You can now retrieve work-tracking data directly within your workflows — get a work item, and list saved work item queries, projects, teams, iterations, repositories, and builds.
#52346
New
Jira actions in workflows
Added Jira actions to workflows. You can now retrieve issue and project data directly within your workflows — get an issue, search issues by JQL, get an issue's available transitions, list an issue's comments, list and get projects, and get a user.
#52345
New
Asana actions in workflows
Added Asana actions to workflows. You can now retrieve work-management data directly within your workflows — list and get tasks and projects, list workspaces, users, and sections, and list a task's stories (comments and activity).
#52342
New
Rippling actions in workflows
Added Rippling actions to workflows. You can now retrieve employee data directly within your workflows — list and get workers, and list departments, work locations, teams, employment types, and companies — making it easy to trigger onboarding for new hires.
#52341
New
JotForm actions in workflows
Added JotForm actions to workflows. You can now retrieve forms and submission data directly within your workflows — list and get forms, list a form's questions, list and get submissions, list reports, and check account usage.
#52336
New
Request summary in the self-service chat
When end users ask to see a request's details from the in-app chat in the self-service portal, the Virtual Agent now returns a clear, readable summary of the request instead of raw field data.
#51177
New
Advanced Search with Boolean Operators
Find exactly what you're looking for, faster. Requests search now supports AND, OR, and NOT operators, so you can combine and refine search terms to zero in on the results that matter most.
#49312
New
More flexible CI field configuration
Custom Fields and Workflow variables for Configuration Items now offer a more intuitive and flexible configuration experience, making it easier to define and manage CI-related data.
#47560
New
Save workflow stages as reusable Building Blocks
You can now select a group of workflow stages and save them as a reusable Building Block — a named unit of workflow logic you can insert into any workflow as a single step. Define common sequences like approval chains or onboarding steps once, then reuse them across workflows to keep them consistent and easier to maintain.
#45205
New
AI-Powered Workflow Generation
Workflow creation now starts with a conversation. Open the new "Create workflow from prompt" option from the Workflows menu, describe the process you need in plain language, and IGSM proposes a plan you can review and refine before generating.
#38021
New
Always up-to-date Configuration Item details
Access richer, fully synchronized Configuration Item information directly within support processes, giving agents the latest context when they need it.
#25366
New
Recurring Inactivity Reminders for Request Customers
You can now configure recurring inactivity reminders for request customers instead of sending a single one-off reminder. Choose the interval (days, hours, or minutes) and how many reminders to send before the cycle stops — the cycle ends automatically once the customer responds/acts, or once the configured count is reached. Inactivity expiration behavior is unchanged and runs independently.
#7477
New
Knowledge Base Article Importer: Single & bulk import via files or CSV mode
IGSM now lets you bulk-load knowledge into your Knowledge Base. Upload one or multiple files (.md, .docx, .pdf, .txt, .html), or run a bulk import via CSV to create multiple articles at once. All imported articles are created directly as drafts, ready for review and editing.
