Reference field filter parameters have been added to the Flatfile API reference and SDK packages.Agent Drawer Behavior
The agent drawer now closes when switching between different workbooks.Chat Tool Repetition
The chat now allows for repeated tools, even if previously rejected or removed, provided the data supports the requested action.Mapping Rule Preview Fix
An issue where subsequent previews for mapping rules were not showing has been resolved by checking if the program ID changes.Snapshot Before Run All
A snapshot is now created before running saved transformations, allowing for rollback from version history.07-10-2025
Smarter Chat Interface
We’ve improved our Smart Extract chat interface for a more streamlined experience, with cleaner and more efficient responses.Enhanced Mapping Rules in Preview
We’ve updated how mapping rules are used in the preview endpoint, leveraging a new mapping method for improved performance.Fixed Deployment Modal Error
Fixed an issue where the build mode deploy modal would get stuck on the error screen.”Ask in Chat” Column Context Fix
The ‘Ask in chat’ feature from the column context menu now properly appends a mention of the current column to the AI Assistant input.Snapshot Before Transformation Program
A snapshot is now created before running a transformation program, allowing restoration to the previous state from version history.Stability improvements for event subscriptions
The system now falls back to long polling on SSE failure, addressing issues where SSE connections are blocked by corporate firewalls.Spurious toast notifications fixed
Toast notifications are no longer triggered for validation suggestion job completion.Comments tray icon, Filter collections, and Toolbar counts are themed
Static theming added to Comments tray icon, Filter collections, and Toolbar counts04-14-2025
We’re excited to introduce the new Instructions API, which allows you to store and retrieve contextual instructions for guiding users during the data mapping process.The Instructions API provides a way to associate helpful guidance with specific field sets. When a user is mapping data with a similar field structure, the appropriate instructions can be retrieved and displayed to guide them through the process.Key features include:Request Body:
- Field-specific instructions: Store instructions for specific combinations of fields
- Automatic matching: Instructions are automatically matched to sheets with similar field structures
- Metadata support: Add custom metadata to instructions for additional context
- Full CRUD operations: Create, read, update, and delete instructions through a RESTful API
Create Instructions
Get Instructions by Sheet ID
Update Instructions
Delete Instructions
How It Works
Instructions are tied to mapping families, which are collections of fields that share a common structure. The system uses a confidence threshold to determine which instructions to display, ensuring that users only see guidance that’s relevant to their current data.Example Usage
Here’s a simple example of how to create instructions using the API:04-11-2025
Updated Default Data Retention PeriodThe default data retention period has been updated from 10 days to 365 days, providing users with a longer default timeframe for data storage. Additionally, the description text has been simplified to “Keeps data for a set duration from its collection” without referencing a specific policy timeframe.This change gives users more time to work with their data before it expires, while maintaining the flexibility to configure custom retention periods as needed.
04-08-2025
Improved Data Clips Collaborator ExperienceWe’ve enhanced the user experience in Data Clips by hiding the collaborator input when no space guests exist:
- The collaborator input is now automatically hidden in the Data Clip create modal when there are no space guests
- Similarly, the collaborator section is hidden in the share modal when no guests are available
- This provides a cleaner interface by only showing relevant options based on the current space context
04-08-2025
Advanced Filters with Field Validation StatusWe’ve enhanced our filtering capabilities with a new Advanced Filters feature that supports querying by field validation status. This powerful addition allows you to build dynamic filters that combine field selection with validation checks.Key improvements include:
- Support for the FFQL
is
operator with values oferror
andvalid
- Ability to create complex filters targeting specific fields with validation issues
- User-friendly interface for building advanced filter queries
- Seamless integration with existing filtering capabilities
04-07-2025
The guest URL functionality for DataClips has been enhanced with a more streamlined approach to URL generation and storage:
- The
guestAuthentication
array field has been replaced with a newguestLinkUrl
string field in the DataClip model - When updating a DataClip with
sharedLink
set to “unrestricted”, a guest link with a permanent access token is generated - When updating a DataClip with
sharedLink
set to “restricted”, a direct sheet URL is generated without a token - The system now properly handles existing guest links to prevent unnecessary regeneration
- The URL format has been improved for better usability and security
04-07-2025
External links in Documents (both Markdown and HTML) now automatically open in a new tab (
target="_blank"
). This improvement ensures that users don’t navigate away from the Flatfile interface when clicking on links within documents, maintaining their current context and workflow.This change applies to all links in documents, whether they’re created using Markdown syntax or HTML anchor tags.04-03-2025
Preserve Record IDs During TransformationsWe’ve added a new This feature is backward compatible -
keepRecordIds
flag to maintain record IDs during transformations. This enhancement provides greater control over how records are processed during transformation operations.Key Benefits:- Maintains data consistency across transformation previews
- Preserves record relationships and references
- Improves transformation accuracy by maintaining original record IDs
keepRecordIds
is set to true
, the system uses updateRecords
instead of the previous add/delete approach, ensuring that record IDs remain unchanged throughout the transformation process. This is particularly valuable when:- Working with data that has established relationships between records
- Performing multiple transformations where maintaining record identity is important
- Integrating with systems that rely on consistent record identifiers
keepRecordIds
flag can be included in transformation job configurations:keepRecordIds
defaults to false
, maintaining the existing behavior for current implementations.03-17-2025
New row insertion feature in Flatfile’s data tables.
- Users can now add new rows by hovering over row dividers in the index column
- An “Insert row” button appears when hovering between rows
- Clicking the button adds a new row at the selected position
- The feature provides a more intuitive way to add data at specific positions in a table
03-07-2025
Enhanced agent discovery with new search capabilities. Users can now search for agents by either agent slug or agent ID directly from both the agents list view and the agents detail page.Optimized performance of the getAgents endpoint through pagination implementation. This significantly improving response times and scalability when working with large collections of agents.
02-04-2025
Records with readonly configurations are now handled differently in the
replaceRecords operation. A new option called excludeReadOnly has been
introduced to control whether readonly records or fields should be skipped or
replaced. If excludeReadOnly is set to true, records with a readonly config or
fields marked as readonly will not be replaced during the replaceRecords
operation. If excludeReadOnly is false or not provided, readonly records and
fields will be replaced as before.The findAndReplaceRecords method in the WorkbooksService now checks if the field
being replaced is readonly and throws an error if excludeReadOnly is set to
true, preventing modification of readonly fields.Several new tests have been added to validate the behavior of the replaceRecords
operation with readonly records and fields, covering scenarios with
excludeReadOnly set to true and false.The SearchRecordsOptions and GetCellValuesOptions interfaces have been updated
to include the new excludeReadOnly option.Example usage:
01-31-2025
Added language support for:
- Spanish (es-419)
- Malay (ms)
- Dutch (nl)
- Polish (pl)
- Swedish (sv)
- Thai (th)
- Chinese Traditional (zh-hant)
- Chinese Traditional Hong Kong (zh-hant-HK)
01-30-2025
Namespace modification is now supported via API only. Other app fields remain
editable via the UI but the ability to edit a namespace has been removed
post-creation.
01-30-2025
Fixes bug where long document titles would overlap the page header.
01-27-2025
The order of imports from the
@flatfile/api
module has been updated. The RecordUpdates
and Success
types are now imported in a different order.The implementation of the clearColumn
method has been refactored. Instead of using the map
and filter
array methods, it now uses the reduce
method to generate the recordsUpdates
array. The new implementation checks if the field value exists and if the field is not read-only before clearing it. This change likely improves performance and readability.The wording of the info
and outcome.message
properties in the transitionJob
call has been updated from “Column was removed” to “Column was cleared”. This change provides more accurate messaging about the action performed.Additionally, the code now handles read-only fields correctly. If a field is marked as read-only in the RecordConfig
, its value will not be cleared.These changes improve the functionality, performance, and messaging of the clearColumn
logic without introducing any breaking changes to the external interface.01-24-2025
The unique validation and record/cell validity handling has been improved to:
- properly escape field keys containing special characters like periods
- correctly apply the
error
state and appropriate error messages when duplicate values are encountered for fields with a unique constraint - handle cases where all initially added records have invalid (duplicate) values for fields with a unique constraint
01-23-2025
When clearing a column in a job operation, a snapshot of the sheet will be taken
before the column is cleared. This snapshot will be labeled with the specific
column key that is being cleared, providing a record of the sheet state before
the column clearing operation. The snapshot is taken by calling a new utility
function
takeSnapshotForJob
, which handles creating and labeling the snapshot
based on the job, sheet, and column details. This allows developers to review
the sheet state prior to the column clearing if needed.01-22-2025
The release adds the ability to mark a space as an app template and filter
spaces based on whether they are app templates or not.This can be used with the new space-configure-from-template plugin to create new
spaces using an existing space as a template.When using AutoBuild for a new App, the space generated during AutoBuild will
automatically be tagged as the template for that App.
01-22-2025
We added the ability to sort enum fields by label, value, or ordinal within the enum field config. This will ensure that enums will be displayed in the chosen order in mapping and review table. The default sortBy is label.
01-22-2025
The release introduces the ability to filter spaces by the associated app ID
when retrieving a list of spaces. A new query parameter
appId
has been added
to the /v1/spaces
endpoint. Developers can now pass the appId
query
parameter to retrieve only the spaces associated with the specified app. For
example, ?appId=us_app_123
will return only spaces linked to the app with ID
us_app_123
. If an invalid or non-existent app ID is provided, an empty list
will be returned.01-17-2025
An error is now thrown if attempting to clear a readonly column in a sheet. This
prevents modifying data in readonly columns.Example:Attempting to clear this column will throw an error: ‘Column is readonly and
cannot be cleared’.An error is also thrown if attempting to clear any column in a readonly sheet.
This prevents modifying data in readonly sheets.Example:Attempting to clear a column in this sheet will throw an error: ‘Sheet is
readonly. Column cannot be cleared’.These changes ensure data integrity by preventing unintended modification of
readonly data.
01-13-2025
The
clearColumnAction
now has a constraint added that checks if the column is enabled before allowing the action to be executed. This ensures that the action can only be performed on columns that are currently enabled, preventing any potential issues or errors that could arise from attempting to clear a disabled column.01-06-2025
The manual entry and file upload button shown when the workbook is empty have
has their max width updated so they can support more text.
12-30-2024
Trailing empty records in CSV files will now be trimmed during file extraction.
Empty records in-between records with values will continue to be kept.
12-20-2024
- Record order is now maintained when inserting records
- When using the Flatfile API to add records, the order of those records will now be preserved keeping the original sequence as provided
12-10-2024
Fixes a bug where AI assist would crash when ‘config’ object or the ‘options’
array is undefined.
12-09-2024
Fixes a bug where an error would be thrown when config options was undefined
during sheet upsert operations.
12-06-2024
There was a bug causing the name of environment secrets not to update when
edited. This fixes the bug ensuring environment secret names are updated.
12-04-2024
The
viewMapped
functionality has been updated to include new text strings for
messaging related to updating a table to only view mapped fields. The messages
include “Updating the table to only view mapped fields”, “Halfway there, hang
tight…”, “Almost done…”, “Table update complete. Please audit the data”, and
“An error occurred while updating the workbook. See Event Logs.” These strings
will be displayed to the user during the process of updating a table to show
only mapped fields, providing status updates and handling potential errors. This
change enhances the user experience by providing clear communication during this
operation.12-02-2024
A bug fix was made to the handling of enum field options when updating a sheet.
Previously, if the
config.options
property was undefined, an error would
occur. Now, if config.options
is undefined, it defaults to an empty array.
This ensures that the code can safely handle cases where config.options
is not
present or is undefined. For example, if a developer was updating a sheet with
an enum field that did not previously have any options defined, the update can
now proceed without errors.12-02-2024
Added three keys:
addColumn
, clearColumn
, and removeColumn
with their
respective translations for adding, clearing, and removing columns.In the English translation file, the title of the “mapValues” section has been
updated from “Map values” to “Map Fields”.11-13-2024
Updates to the mapping flow to prevent a user from accidentally navigating
“back” into a mapping flow after it has already been completed.
10-28-2024
Bug Fixes in Edit and Create App FormsWe’ve resolved several issues affecting the Edit and Create App forms:
- Fixed form validation issues
- Improved error handling
- Enhanced user feedback
10-17-2024
Updated the AutoBuild flow to allow editing the working space name during the
build process. The name can now be edited by clicking an icon next to the space
name, which reveals an input field to enter a new name. The name change is saved
when the input field loses focus or the Enter key is pressed. Added a badge
indicating “Dev Mode” when not in the production environment.Simplified the loading step by removing the detailed progress indicators and
showing only a centered loader component.Updated the BlueprintTab component to display a bottom border and align the
blueprint view action icons to the right.
10-03-2024
Implemented sheet ordering functionality in the sidebar. Sheets are now
displayed in the order specified by the
sheetSidebarOrder
setting in the
workbook. Any sheets not included in the order are appended to the end.10-01-2024
The getDataDiff function has been updated to handle array values correctly when
comparing proposed changes with existing source (src) and artifact data.If the proposed array value is the same as the existing array value in either
the source or artifacts, it will not be included in the changeset returned by
getDataDiff.The function now uses the lodash isEqual utility to compare array values,
instead of strict equality (===), to account for differences in order or
reference of array elements.For example, if the proposed tags array is [‘jedi’, ‘sith’], it will not be
included in the changeset if the existing source tags are [‘JEDI’, ‘SITH’] or if
the existing artifact tags are [‘jedi’, ‘sith’], because the values are
considered equal despite differences in capitalization or array order.This change ensures that unnecessary changes are not included in the changeset
when working with array values, reducing noise and improving the accuracy of the
changeset calculation.

consistency in how document data is handled.05-03-2024
Enhanced Job ConfigurationWe added a new
predecessorIds
property to JobConfig
. This property allows
you to specify job dependencies, meaning you can list the IDs of jobs that must
be completed before the current job can start. This helps in managing and
sequencing job execution more effectively.We added a new feature to handle job outcomes more effectively with a new type
called JobOutcomeNext
and its variant files. This includes:JobOutcomeNextFileObject
Stores individual file information with an ID and optional label.JobOutcomeNextFiles
Handles multiple files, including an array of JobOutcomeNextFileObject instances and an optional label.
05-03-2024
Enhanced Views Request and ResponseWe updated
ListViewsRequest
to include optional pageSize

Improved event emission logic for workbook creation and updatePreviously, the
workbook:created
event was emitted even when the workbook was
only being updated. Now, the logic emits a workbook:updated
event when
necessary. Additionally, the POST /:workbookId/rebuild
endpoint now handles
eventing properly.05-01-2024
Enhanced Date Parsing CapabilitiesExpanded Support for Date Formats:We’ve broadened our parsing algorithms to accurately recognize and sort a wider
variety of date formats. This update ensures that when users upload files
containing date fields, the system robustly handles various international date
formats and styles.Improved Sorting Accuracy:Dates are now correctly sorted based on their actual chronological order,
regardless of the format input. This enhancement reduces errors and
inconsistencies previously encountered with date sorting, ensuring data
integrity and reliability during file uploads.User Experience Improvement:Users no longer need to modify or standardize date formats in their files before
uploading. Flatfile automatically interprets and processes diverse date inputs,
simplifying workflows and reducing manual data preprocessing.
04-25-2024
Sorted Workbooks in MappingSelecting a Sheet in the mapping flow has been updated to apply the same sort
order consideration as the sidebar. This enhancement ensures consistency in

Google Drive, File System, Box, and OneDrive.
04-22-2024
Improved Duplicate Field Key Validation in Workbook SheetsCase-Insensitive Checking:Our latest update enhances the validation process by identifying duplicate field
keys in workbook sheets, including case-insensitive comparisons. This ensures
that field keys are unique regardless of character casing, maintaining data
integrity and consistency across your datasets.Data Integrity Assurance:By preventing the entry of duplicate keys, even when differences are only in
letter casing, we enhance the accuracy and reliability of data processing within
our application.
04-22-2024
When uploading a file, you’ll now see upload speeds in a user-friendly format

04-18-2024
Introducing customizable column sizes in the Flatfile BlueprintA new new sizing options has been added for string fields to enhance visual
customization and user interface consistency.See the new
property.
04-17-2024
Enhanced Workbook Build Process and Diagnostic LoggingExtended Wait Time for Workbook Readiness:To accommodate more complex data processing needs, we have extended the maximum
wait time for workbook readiness from 30 to 120 seconds. This adjustment ensures
that larger or more complex workbooks have sufficient time to complete their
build process without interruption.Added Timeout Functionality:We’ve introduced a new timeout feature that automatically stops the workbook
building process if it exceeds the allotted time. This prevents prolonged waits
and potential system overloads, improving overall system reliability.Improved Logging Capabilities:To aid in troubleshooting and optimize workbook build performance, we have
enhanced our logging system. Logs now include additional context information,
offering deeper insights into the workbook building process and helping identify
and resolve issues more efficiently.
04-12-2024
Enhanced Cell-Level Control in RecordsWe’ve introduced a new configuration property that allows users to set
individual cells within a record to read-only. This enhancement extends our
previous functionality where only entire columns or sheets could be designated
as read-only. Now, you can apply more granular control over data manipulation by
restricting editing at the cell level, improving data integrity and compliance.See the
reference.Fixed Sheet Name Sanitization for DownloadsWe’ve improved the file download process by sanitizing sheet names that contain forward slashes. Previously, when a sheet had a name with forward slashes (e.g., “people/Contacts”), downloading the sheet could cause issues with file paths. Now, forward slashes in sheet names are automatically replaced with underscores when generating download filenames, ensuring a smooth download experience regardless of the sheet naming convention used.
04-09-2024
Support continuing to the next row on enter key pressUsers can now seamlessly move to the next row in the cell by hitting the enter
