Change Highlights
Webphone
UI Framework Upgrade: transitioned from Angular v1 to React.
Onboarding Process: The web app will now walk new users through configuring their audio and notification settings before allowing them into the app.
PWA (Progressive Web App) & Push Notification: native web phone application without the browser; push support when the application is closed
iFrame Support: dedicated page with side bar navigation & configurable icons
UA Registration Chip: includes network strength / status
Pin Cards: web phone cards are now easier to pin (lock) in place. The pin icon is located in the upper right-hand corner of each card. Pinned cards will move to the top row.
Notification of Multiple Instances: when a duplicate web phone tab is opened, the old tab will now display this warning: "The web phone was opened elsewhere". The new tab should take over. The exception is when a call is actively taking place on the old tab. In that case, the old tab will remain active, and the new tab will display a duplicate session warning. Once the new tab is closed, the old tab will auto-refresh and become active. This feature works while using the same browser. It does not work when using an incognito window or different browsers/computers.
Domain Wide Number Blocking
Previously to block numbers you were required to block them at the user level, now you will be able to block numbers across an entire domain, and you will be able to do this from the call history page as well.
See Domain Wide Call Blocking for information.
API v2
v44 will now come with v2, documentation available https://docs.ns-api.com/ - v2 API will still allow for backwards compatibility with v1.
New Timeframes
Time Frames have been completely reworked, allowing for recurring timeframes, using pre-defined built in holiday list, and observed holidays (ie, how to handle a holiday landing on a weekend).
See Timeframes for information.
