Chains
Discontinued the Tabular Transformation connector's "Convert XLSX to CSV" command
The Tabular Transformation version of the Convert XLSX to CSV command has been discontinued. Any existing chains using this command will continue to function, but no future instances can be created.
In its place, we recommend using the Excel connector's identical Worksheet to CSV command.
The FTPS connector now includes optional SSL/TLS session reuse
We've added the option to disable session reuse in the FTPS connector. The connector will always attempt to reuse the SSL/TLS session when executing a command, but you now have the option to decide what happens after that point:
- When set to "True": If the session can't be reused, the command will fail.
- When set to "False": If the session can't be reused, the command will switch to a new session. If the new session still can't be used, only then will the command fail.
Please note that most configurations have session reuse enabled by default and will not be affected by this option.

ESG
Track ESG Program task status from Home
Within Workiva's ESG solution, you can now add new widgets to track the status of your ESG Program's data collection from Home. There are two new widgets that were added:
- Program Status - Use for at-a-glance status tracking of an ESG Program's tasks as a pie chart.
- Program Topic Tracker - Use for more granular tracking of tasks for each topic within an ESG Program.
For either widget, you can apply filters to focus on tasks based on certain criteria, such as their specific topics or assignments.
