Task Name in the Link
We’ve taught Planfix to pull in the name of a task when a link to it is added. Now you won’t have to go to the task to view its name, and what’s more, the color the name is displayed in shows you the stage it’s at. This helps you get oriented quickly when viewing a list of task links.
New Methods in REST API
We’ve added methods for working with employees to our REST API. Read more in the specs.
If you don’t understand what we’re talking about here, no worries. Just pass this update along to your developers.
An Activity Light in the Graphs
We’ve added an active/inactive light bulb to report graphics. If you disable it, the chart or graph will be hidden. This lets you save different graphics and display them in reports as needed.
A New Option to Instagram Integration
We’ve added a new option to our Instagram integration: “Create tasks from tags in stories”. Now, no tag will go unnoticed. This new feature will help the manager of your business’s page gather feedback from customers.

Notification Configuration for Script Actions
We’re continuing to work to make Planfix even more convenient to use. Part of this work involved separating notification configuration for script actions into its own item. Now it’s clear that this setting applies to the whole script, not just part of it, like many users thought 😊
A New the Appearance of Charts and Graphs
Based on your countless requests, we’ve updated the appearance of charts and graphs in reports.
Company Contacts
We’ve made it possible to display company contacts in the planner card.
A New Setting in the Employee Card
We’ve added a setting to employee cards: “Warn if no user is notified about a comment”. By default, this is active and works like before, meaning if no one is notified when a message is sent, Planfix will remind the user to notify someone. These notifications can be disabled if they’re not needed.
Breadcrumbs in the Report Group
We’ve added a way to get to back a report group through breadcrumbs. Now you can quickly get back to a group from, say, editing mode.
The Task Filter Opening on the Subtasks Tab
Now you can open the task filter from the Subtasks tab, with all columns and views, including the Gantt chart. It turns out it wasn’t intuitive to drag the width of this block, so few people did it. We’ve added an ordinary button for convenience.
Additional Event to a Task’s Log
We’ve added an additional event to a task’s log about how the task was created: via a filter or planner, or by clicking “+” in a planner list. This makes it easier to understand which filter or planner list parameters the task inherited when it was created. Now you can quickly figure out why the wrong project, assigner, or assignee was specified in a task.
Messages from Mail Robots about Undelivered Emails
Messages from mail robots about undelivered emails can now be added to the task they were sent from. For this to happen, email forwarding from external email addresses to Planfix must be enabled. Planfix will automatically add the error details to the notification report. In addition, if the “Accept email from mail robots” option is enabled in your inbox settings, the error message from the robot will go to the task from which the message was sent.
New Search Feature Added to Task Filters
We’ve added a search for the task filters by name. So now you can quickly find the right one if there are many.
Improved File Attachment Notifications
Users often forget to attach a file when communicating with colleagues or contacts. Then, they rectify the situation by editing the old comment and adding the file. Consequently, users expect the new attached file to be sent with the original email or message.
Planfix now informs users about notifications that have already gone out and won’t include the attached file to avoid such situations. The task log will display information about adding a file while a comment is edited.
