What's Changed

New features

• Inspired by source control workflows, there is a new suggestions feature for crowd-sourcing data. Anyone can suggest a change to a document that the document editors can review then approve or reject.

API improvements

• Behind the GRIST_ENABLE_SERVICE_ACCOUNTS environment variable, there is a new API api/service-accounts for enabling, configuring, and using service accounts. A service account is intended for controlling and fine-tuning the scope and access of multiple API keys associated to a login user. Thanks to Grégoire Cutzach of DINUM for the hard work they poured into this feature.
• There are new API endpoints user/{id}/disable and user/{id}/enable accessible only to admin accounts for enabling/disabling a user, without deleting the user.
• The /data/delete API endpoint has been deprecated in favour of records/delete.

Self-hosting configuration

• In order to better allow long uploads or downloads, there are three new environment variables: GRIST_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS, GRIST_KEEP_ALIVE_TIMEOUT_MS, and GRIST_HEADERS_TIMEOUT_MS.

UI improvements

• When creating forms, it is now possible to set fields as hidden, as well as pre-populating those fields via a URL query parameter.
• There are new shortcuts in the add column menu for adding various kinds of parts of dates to a table that already contains a date.
• Copy-pasting into attachment columns now works.
• There is now a download menu option in the document list

Accessibility

• The search bar and the creator panel now have better keyboard navigation
• Long lists in a form have better navigation
• The descriptions of keyboard shortcut descriptions are now translated
• Pie charts have been made more visually pleasing
• The colors for selected buttons in the creator panel are now easier to read

Other

• Miscellaneous bug fixes and translations
