Workiva Platform
Classic Admin Changes - Classic Profile removed
As a reminder, Workiva is shutting off access to specific experiences within our Classic Admin application to streamline your administrative tasks.
In our most recent release, we shut off our Classic My Profile page. The new My Profile page is already available in the current Workiva Platform. For more on editing your profile, see Edit your profile .
Classic Account Admin navigation removed
All Classic Admin features that Workiva supports can now be accessed through our current platform. As a result, all Classic Account Admin features have now been shut down and we've removed the ability to navigate to Classic Account Admin from the current platform navigation menu.
For more information on Classic Admin changes, see this community post.
Fixes to the /Schemas endpoint
The /Schemas endpoint will no longer return schemas with the names "Schema", "Resource Type", or "Service Provider Config".
View value details from ESG Metrics panel
With Workiva's ESG solution, you can view information about ESG Program metrics from their connected source file's ESG Metrics panel. From this panel, you can now view details about a connected value, including:
- Data type, such as Number or Currency
- Unit of measurement, when applicable
- It location within the file, such as the coordinates of its spreadsheet cell
For more information, see Connect Workiva files to ESG Program metric values
