Hi Dispatch users!

We've been busy working on Dispatch since the last release in September and this release comes with a ton of new useful features, improvements, and bug fixes across the app. Here are some that are worth highlighting:

  • Allowing to define and set incident severities to represent the measured impact resulting from an incident.
  • Allowing to assign a new participant role called Observer to improve accuracy of incident cost calculation. Incident participants that get resolved via engagement filters and added to the incident on incident creation or modification will be assigned this role. Time spent on this role won't be counted against incident cost. Individuals with this role will get the role converted to Participant if they send 10 or more messages to the incident channel.
  • Allowing to view signal instances associated with a case.
  • Ability to report cases via intake form at https://dispatch.example.net/default/cases/report.
  • Allowing to configure client settings via an API call.

Give it a try and let us know what you think. Thanks to all community members for your continuous help and support!
