Hey there, Sparrow Innovators!
We're excited to introduce Refresh Workspace, GraphQL support for WebApp and Edge, and a Cancel button for better request control—along with major enhancements to streamline your workflow. Check out what's new!!
🚀What’s New?
GraphQL Support in Web App and Edge
- The web app now fully supports GraphQL, enabling efficient and flexible data interactions.
Dynamic Variables: Query filters, pagination, and nested objects for precise data retrieval.
- Enhanced Queries & Mutations: Fetch timeline items with parameterized inputs and update data seamlessly.
- Cloud & Browser Agent Support: Added support for executing GraphQL queries via cloud-based and browser agents, enhancing accessibility and scalability.
- Real-Time Sync: Subscription support for live data updates across multiple clients.
- Optimized Performance: Improved schema, resolvers, and caching for faster execution.
Smart Workspace Refresh
- To enhance collaboration and ensure users always have up-to-date data, the workspace now supports both manual refresh and auto-sync features.
- Instant Refresh on click
- A refresh icon is now available beside the search bar in the left panel. Clicking it instantly syncs the workspace, ensuring all users see the latest updates without reloading the page.
- Smart Auto-Sync
- The workspace automatically updates every 2 minutes to reflect changes made by any member.
- Users see real-time updates without disruption, ensuring seamless collaboration.
Enhanced Request Control: Cancel Button for GraphQL, WebSocket, and Socket.IO
- To improve user control and responsiveness, a Cancel button has been introduced for GraphQL, WebSocket, and Socket.IO requests.
- Instant Termination: Users can now bypass or stop ongoing requests without waiting for a response.
- Improved Performance: Prevents unnecessary resource consumption by terminating stalled or unwanted requests.
Enhancements for a Smoother Experience
- Teams and REST API now follow the new design system for a more consistent UI. Improved state management ensures faster and more reliable interactions.
- Global Search Enhancement: Implemented real-time search term highlighting, ensuring better readability and faster navigation. Users can quickly locate relevant results with improved visibility and an intuitive experience.
- Undo/redo shortcuts are implemented in input fields and code editors.
- The search editor now offers a more intuitive and visually enhanced experience. Users can quickly find results using Ctrl/cmd + F in the request and response sections with full search options.
- Error messages in HTTP, Socket.IO, WebSocket, and GraphQL requests are now dynamic, ensuring accurate and context-aware responses.
⚠️ Known Glitches
- Here’s what we’re still refining—because perfection takes time:
- The "Open in Workspace" button occasionally takes a detour.
- Sometimes, AI-generated cURL requests may produce errors, and parameters may not be properly separated.
- Query Explorer and Editor sync issues might play a bit of hide-and-seek in GraphQL.
