You can now add and manage footer links—like Privacy, Terms, and key resources—without having to use custom HTML. And to keep things tidy, we’ve added support for dropdowns for both your header and footer, so you can group related links easily.Plus, we’ve shipped behind-the-scenes upgrades to make your experience smoother across the board, from usability and reporting to accessibility. Nothing flashy, just the kind of thoughtful improvements that quietly make your day better. Here’s what’s new: New Dropdowns for Header Link ManagementYou can now add additional links to your site’s header and group them into dropdown menus, making it easier to guide learners to the right resources. Whether it's reference materials, help docs, or other training content, you can keep everything organized and accessible from the top of the page. Admin Experience: Add and order your links under the appropriate dropdown Academy/Learner Experience: Example of dropdown links in header Consistent Footer Links ManagementInstead of relying on custom HTML, you can now manage footer links the same way you manage header links. Add link names, set the order, organize dropdowns, and publish updates easily.  Admin Experience: Manage footer links with the same organization as header links Academy/Learner Experience: Example of dropdown links added to footer Small enhancements & improvements: Click-to-Copy Functionality in Publication Settings We’ve added copy icons to make grabbing key values quicker and more intuitive in Publication Settings:URL Field: You’ll now see a copy icon next to the slug input. Clicking it copies the full URL (prefix + slug) to your clipboard. SKU Field: A new copy icon in the Purchase Settings section lets you instantly copy the SKU, without triggering the flyout.Both icons include tooltips to confirm when a value has been copied. This enhancement also supports optional copy functionality at the component level in summary callouts, making it easier to reuse this pattern elsewhere. Domain Filter Added to Drill-Down Course AnalyticsYou can now filter by domain when viewing drill-down Course Analytics.Previously, domain filtering was only available on the high-level Course Analytics view, making it difficult to analyze data by domain after clicking into a specific course. With this update, users can apply the same domain filter at the drill-down level to see exactly which students make up metrics like registrations and completions for a given domain. Filter by Unpublished Courses in Course ManagementYou can now filter for unpublished courses in Course Management to easily review, clean up, or take action on drafted content. Other bugs and fixes:Training credits will now be enabled by default for all new organizations. Existing organizations’ training credits will remain unchanged. You can now view tags associated with live events in the CSV download—displayed as a comma-separated list in a new “Tags” column at the end of the file. Student Manager permissions can now be automated via API, making it easier for teams to assign training management access directly from systems like Salesforce, without manual setup in the dashboard. Made small visual adjustments to the Course Management header in the dashboard to improve visual alignment and overall polish. You can now filter for groups without categories to identify uncategorized groups that may need cleanup or organization. You can now download a CSV from the Labels Management page to view all labels and their associated objects in one exportable file. Bug fix that now allows Course Management pages to render correctly in Safari on desktop and mobile browsers. Accessibility Improvements The expand/collapse icons in catalog filters in the learner experience will now include alt text, improving screen reader support and overall accessibility for keyboard and assistive tech users.  Quiz titles on lesson pages in the learner experience are now properly tagged as H3s, ensuring correct heading structure for screen readers.  👀 You might’ve already noticed some of these under-the-radar improvements, we’re always looking for ways to make your day-to-day a little easier. Which one’s been your favorite?

We’ve all been there: you spot something you want to come back to, on social media, in an email, or tucked in a browser tab (or seven), and then… it’s gone.Your learners feel that same frustration when it comes to training. That’s why we built Saved Content. With a single click, learners can bookmark courses and learning paths, whether they’re halfway through or planning to start later, and always know exactly where to find them.Saved Content lives in a dedicated section at the top of their profile page, right above active enrollments, creating a personal hub they can return to anytime. What it means for admins:Encourage higher re-engagement and completion rates of in-progress courses. Deliver a more personalized, learner-friendly experience at scale. 💡Pro tip! Pair Saved Content with In-Progress Catalog Tiles to spotlight unfinished courses on Builder Pages for an extra completion rate boost. Saved Content is already live in your academy, so learners can start bookmarking courses and paths right away.👉 Check out our Help Center article for more details. 

This release expands the Skilljar API with new endpoints to help automate catalog updates, integrate with AI tools, and support headless architecture. We’ve also added smaller enhancements, like bulk quiz question uploads for admins and notification opt-outs for learners, to make everyday tasks easier. Let’s dive in! Expanded Content Management APIsWe’ve added new API endpoints and fields designed to automate content management and power AI-powered workflows. Here’s what’s new—and how you can use them: 📖 Catalog Page ManagementEndpoints: Create, update, and delete catalog pages and content that appears on that page: a specific course, learning path, webinar recording, PDF, certification exam, etc. Keep your catalog fresh by syncing directly with your CMS/DAM (see below). Automate content placement as new courses or resources are published. CMS (Content Management System): A tool that helps you create, organize, and publish content on a website without needing to code.  DAM (Digital Asset Management): A tool for storing and organizing digital files like images, videos, and documents so your team can find and use them easily.  🎓 CoursesEndpoints: Add and manage labels, delete courses, filter by label name. New fields for course metadata (promo_image_url, created_at, & time-tracking fields). Auto-tag or organize courses programmatically; push AI-generated promo images or time-to-complete estimates into your course metadata.📚 Published Courses & PathsEndpoints: For courses, full Create, Review, Update, Delete (CRUD), plus set rules for prerequisites, re-enrollment rules, visibility overrides, and tags. For paths, full CRUD, including labels, tags, and path items. New fields (created_at,slug,modified_at) Automate how and when learners see content. With an AI content tool, you can now publish a new course to Skilljar and automatically set prerequisites, visibility rules, and labels so it fits into the right learning path and audience segment, without admins manually configuring it in the dashboard.🏷 Tags & LabelsEndpoints: Full CRUD for tags and labels. Streamline how content is classified; use AI tools to auto-tag courses based on content.💲 License PackagesEndpoints: Add or update students in license packages via API.   Manage access automatically if you’re using License Packages. Add learners as soon as they’re provisioned in your CRM or HRIS.📝 AssessmentsEndpoints: Manage question banks, quizzes, and individual questions programmatically. Generate quiz questions with AI (e.g., from transcripts or lessons) and publish them straight into Skilljar. Refresh existing question banks at scale.📂 Other EnhancementsNote: These endpoints are listed in a separate category because they affect the admin side of Skilljar (things like deleting assets, updating path fields) rather than the learner side.Endpoints: Delete assets, lessons, and web packages; new fields for paths (promo_image_url, short_description, long_description_html, header_html,course_name_singular) Keep content clean and up to date; push AI-authored course summaries or descriptions directly into Skilljar.  What Does This Update Unlock?Automate content updates across large catalogs. Enable AI-powered content creation and publishing with partners like LearnExperts or Parta.io—or your own integrations. Support headless architectures by giving developers the ability to create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) courses and paths entirely through the API, without relying on the Skilljar dashboard UI.⚠️ Note: Our expanded APIs open the door for integrations with AI-powered content tools that can generate and publish content directly into Skilljar. With technical expertise, you can build similar workflows on your own, but success will depend on your ability to prompt, program, and connect these tools effectively. These are not out-of-the-box capabilities; but rather options for teams ready to leverage APIs and AI together.👉 See our API documentation for more information.  Bulk Upload Quiz QuestionsAdmins can now bulk upload quiz questions directly from the Dashboard, making quiz and question bank creation faster and easier. You can also add new questions to existing quizzes and question banks.From the Course Management > Quizzes page, simply select Upload via CSV to add multiple questions at once. You’ll be guided through a simple upload process with:A blank CSV template for easy formatting Validation of the CSV to ensure proper upload A step to configure new quiz settings before submittingOnce uploaded, new question banks and quizzes are automatically created with the correct questions and settings applied. Existing quiz settings will not be affected. Course Management > Quizzes > Upload via CSV Learning Path Notification Opt-OutLearners can already manage whether they receive course notifications from their profile page. Now, that same control is available for learning paths.By default, learners are opted in to notifications, but they can easily toggle them off anytime from their profile. This gives students more flexibility to decide how they want to stay updated on their learning.👉 Check out our Help Center article for setup details.  We want to hear from you! Which update was your favorite?

With the new official Slack app, Staircase is easier, more secure, and more powerful than before. It meets Slack’s trust and compliance requirements, delivers account updates directly in DMs, and now lets you ask Staircase for deeper context right inside Slack—reducing context-switching.  And this is just the start—this foundation unlocks even more useful, actionable notifications to come. What it doesAsk anything, anywhere: Use /staircase ask [your query] in a channel or DM the app for private answers. Prep fast: Get account health, sentiment shifts, stakeholder updates, and recent activity in seconds. Work your way: Keep insights private in DMs or share what matters with the team. Stay in flow: No more jumping between tools—customer context comes to you.Example Queries to TryNot sure where to start? Try asking Staircase one of these questions: What’s the sentiment trend for [customer name]” “Show me the last 3 interactions with [customer name].” “Which accounts are at risk this quarter?” “Who are the key stakeholders for [customer name]?” Get startedAlready using the Slack app? Reauthorize through the Slack Marketplace to unlock slash commands and DMs. Simply navigate to Settings > Integrations > Slack and select Reauthorize.  Note: Channels don’t need to be authorized separately. Once the app is installed, it will work in any channel it’s added to. Responses are only visible to you. New to Staircase in Slack? Just install the app and connect it in Integration Settings. The bottom line: Ask Staircase puts customer intelligence at your fingertips—faster prep, smarter conversations, and less context-switching.❇️ Check out the integration guide for step-by-step details. Privacy Note: Staircase never analyzes your internal Slack content. Only the external channels you choose are used for insights.

When Gainsight unveiled Atlas at Pulse 2025, the vision was simple: to retain and grow, you need to treat every customer like your best customer—at scale. A scale that’s only possible with agents. Staircase AI, our Insights Agent, scans every customer communication for hidden risk and expansion signals. Gainsight’s AI Agent for Slack delivers on-demand customer outcomes, top risks, and even CS best practices right where you work. Soon, Renewal AI Agent will help execute renewal workflows in the long-tail.And now, Gainsight’s Moderation AI Agent joins the team.    The bottom line: Your community should feel safe and on-brand…without burning out your team. Now, Gainsight’s Moderation AI Agent takes on that work, polishing every conversation and ensuring your community is a place people want to return to.What it doesAutomates moderation: Instantly approves, flags, or removes posts based on your Community Code of Conduct, with built-in spam, abuse, and PII (personally identifiable information) detection. Keeps you in control: Moderation decisions come with Moderator Tags, giving your team clear, simple labels to audit, filter, and override. Content is always classified as either Approved, Pending, or Trash. Adds human-in-the-loop oversight: Borderline content is held from being public, tagged, and placed in a Pending queue, ensuring moderators stay in control where judgment matters most. Adapts to your community: The Moderation Agent uses your own Community Code of Conduct as guardrails, so moderation reflects your standards, not a generic model.Moderation AI Agent isn’t just a filter. It’s an always-on AI teammate that enforces your rules, adapts to your community, and saves hours of manual cleanup—while giving your team the final say when it matters most.❇️ Are you ready to meet Gainsight’s Moderation Agent? Check out the Release Notes to see how to get started. *Rollout Note: Access is being enabled in phases through September, so you may see it appear gradually in your Pre-Moderation community settings.*Privacy Note: Data processed by OpenAI (GPT‑4.1) through Gainsight’s AI Moderation Agent is never used to train AI models.  

Your team is being asked to do more than ever. That’s why we’re making it easier to get the features you need, when you need them. With new on-demand releases, you can choose to activate updates right away to move faster, or wait until the quarterly release for a more coordinated rollout. The choice is yours — and either way, you’re in control. What’s Changing with the Release Schedule of Gainsight CS? Up until now, new features have always rolled out on a fixed quarterly schedule—and that’s not going away.

That’s why we’ll continue delivering quarterly releases with the same clear communication and planning you’re used to.What’s new is flexibility. Starting now, you can choose to access select GA-ready features before the full quarterly rollout through on-demand releases.These features are fully tested, production-ready, and available the moment you’re ready to turn them on. If early adoption fits your team, go for it.

Instead, they’ll be offered when features are fully GA-ready and make sense for early access.Whenever new features are available, we’ll announce it through Release Notes, Email, and  Community updates, so you always know what’s ready to use and can opt in on your terms.It’s a flexible way to get value faster, without changing the pace that works best for your team.And the best part?

Think about your community: new members need guidance on the homepage, and custom roles you create may need to see specific content. But when everyone sees the same thing, those opportunities for personalization get lost. With the new Widget Visibility settings, you decide who sees what, so every member’s experience feels tailored to them. What Widget Visibility does:Personalize the Experience: Control which widgets appear on customizable pages based on user type or role (e.g., guests, logged-in users, new members), so each member sees content that’s relevant to them. Reduce Clutter: Hide unnecessary widgets to keep pages clean and focused. Preview Experiences: Use filters to quickly see which widgets appear for a selected segment, alongside public widgets. (Note: in cases where segments overlap, the preview may not fully reflect every user’s exact experience.)   Private visibility makes widgets visible to selected segments only Preview experiences based on chosen user type (guests, admins, partners, etc.)​How Others Are Personalizing Experiences with Widget Visibility:💡 ​​@Daniele Cmty ​from Personio’s Community team shared their use cases for widget visibility settings during our beta program. Check out their pro tips (and maybe steal a few ideas) below:Superusers: Show more open questions in a Dynamic Content Widget to increase peer answer rates Guests: Add a friendly banner prompt to log in or register  Newbies: Use Featured Topics to show tips on how to use the community Leads (non-customers): Use Quick Links to display promotional content Longtime lurkers: Show a banner with tips for writing their first post Returning visitors: Nudge inactive members by showing a banner with an invite to post again Internal employees: Show a banner spotlighting go-to resources like the company Wiki, How-To pages, and AI assistant toolsA big shoutout to all our beta users who helped shape this functionality, especially ​@DannyPancratz & ​@MeghanM for their active feedback. Thanks to your input, every member can enjoy a community experience that feels personalized to them. 👉 Check out the Release Notes for the full details.

You told us your homepage would be more useful if content was organized by what matters most—like products, content types, or categories.With new Custom Tabs, you’re in control. Here’s how:Create fully configurable tabs based on product area, content type, or category Tailor each tab to show only relevant discussions, articles, and updates Go beyond the 3-tab limit to better reflect the way your community is structured Remove rigid content logic and curate feeds that match how your users actually engageCustomize tabs by content types, categories, and product areas The Key Change: Smarter LogicUnlike other areas of the Community that use ‘AND’ filtering (e.g., content must match both a category and product area). Custom Tabs flips that. With ‘OR’ logic, content shows up if it matches either a category or a product area. That means a broader, more relevant mix of content across all types, all in one place. 🛠️ Ready to get started?

Several updates in this release are inspired directly by feedback and ideas shared in the Gainsight Community.   JO Enhancements: Preview Program Flows & See Participant Counts at End NodesBuilding automated programs without visibility into how they’ll behave in production can slow everything down. Now, you can preview the participant flow of any advanced Journey Orchestrator program before it launches.  Admins can see how conditions, branches, and logic paths will play out, with participant counts at each end node to make troubleshooting easier. It’s a simpler way to validate program logic and move faster from build to execution. Community Idea: New Program Experience - Evaluate Preview Goal Management in Success Plans: Built for ScaleWith new goal management enhancements, Admins can bulk upload goals and metrics via CSV, apply Success Plan templates during import, and assign goal types with relevant metrics to improve clarity.Admins can also customize the goal library to show only the most relevant options for your team, so CSMs stay focused and Success Plans stay consistent. Community Ideas Layout Types? User Experience and Business Usage Customer Goals - Metrics Per Goal Customer Goals Should Default to Goals Library Allow Metrics to be Associated to Customer Goals​​​​​ Gainsight’s AI Agent in Slack: Smarter Controls for AdminsGainsight’s AI Agent in Slack makes customer data accessible across the business, but sometimes, that access needs structure.Admins can now restrict where the AI Agent can be used in Slack, including blocking public or external channels and limiting access to select internal spaces. Admins can also configure warning messages to appear when users try to use the agent in a restricted channel. Cockpit CTA Configuration: More Flexibility, Less FrictionCTAs are a powerful way to guide action, but until now, Admins had limited control over how they appeared in Success Plans.Now, Admins can define which CTAs are available within a plan, associate existing CTAs, and customize how fields are displayed when creating a new one. This reduces noise and gives teams a more tailored, intuitive experience. Community IdeasCustomize Create CTA Window by Type Custom CTA Fields Should be Visible by Default Linking Existing CTA to Success Plan​​​​​​ Conditional Formatting in Tabular ReportsConditional formatting is now available in tabular reports, making it easier to surface trends, thresholds, and outliers at a glance. Customize colors based on value ranges, apply formatting to grouped rows, and use pre-filled mappings from sources like Scorecards or GDMs—all without affecting other reports. Community Idea: Conditional Formatting in Tabular Reports See the Full Customer Story with Company Hierarchy  Understanding customer health is easier when you can view it across related accounts. With the new Company Hierarchy view in C360, child company data now rolls up into the parent account across Timeline, Cockpit, and Success Plans to make it easier for you to track engagement, spot trends, and act with full context.Additionally, when Company Hierarchy is enabled, Person Rollup lets users view and tag contacts from related companies—like parents or siblings—directly in Timeline entries.  Unified Attachment Management: One Place for Every File (Phased Rollout)Attachments are now easier to manage and find. A new unified experience brings all customer-facing files into a single tab across C360, R360, and Sidebar. Admins can upload, tag, restore, and permission files—all in one place.* Community Idea: Attachments Section on 360 *Note: We’re rolling out this feature in phases beginning on August 4. You’ll receive an in-app notification when it’s live in your instance.  Additional EnhancementsMicrosoft Dynamics Connectors Enhancements: OAuth M2M authentication, out-of-the-box Timeline ingestion jobs, and bi-directional sync now make it easier to securely exchange data between Gainsight and Microsoft Dynamics. SCIM APIs & SCIM User Group Enhancements: Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning in Gainsight using SCIM APIs—simplifying identity management through platforms like Okta.Want the full breakdown?

Staircase AI is built with trust and security at its core—including certifications like ISO 27001 and ISO 42001—and we’re committed to continuing that investment with features that keep your data safe.Our latest update introduces PII (Personally Identifiable Information) Anonymization, a new capability that automatically detects and redacts sensitive data before it enters our systems. This helps your team stay ahead of privacy and compliance requirements like GDPR and CCPA —with zero manual effort required.👉 Learn more about our security practices 🔍 What It DoesWhen enabled, Staircase uses regex pattern matching to identify and replace PII—like email addresses, phone numbers, credit cards, medical IDs, and more—with standardized redaction tokens during data ingestion.Example:john.doe@company.com → [EMAIL_REDACTED]This means the original data is never stored, as it never enters our systems—eliminating any potential risk to sensitive information.To Enable: Go to Admin Config → AI Preferences → PII Anonymization⚠️ A Few Important NotesForward-Only: Protection starts once the feature is enabled. Past data is not retroactively anonymized. Regex-Based: Detection relies on pattern matching and may miss or misidentify information if data is not provided in a clearly identifiable format. For example, if a customer omits a space between a record number and the preceding word, the system may not detect the number string. Fully Configurable: This feature is off by default and must be manually enabled by an admin. Admins can turn it on or off anytime under Admin Config → AI Preferences.✏️ Need More Customization?You can also submit support requests to add custom PII types (like API keys or proprietary IDs).

It’s a familiar scenario: a learner returns to your Academy but doesn’t remember where they left off. That small moment of uncertainty can disrupt progress, lower engagement, and result in incomplete training.

Let's make sure learners know where to go next, so they don't stall out. 🔗 Check out the Help Center article to see how to add this content to Builder Pages.

Available now on Professional and Enterprise plans, License Packages are now part of our new External Management suite; built to give your partners and customers more control without giving them access to your Skilljar dashboard.For organizations that license training, managing them can be... a bit messy. Manual tracking, adding students one by one, using spreadsheets or clunky workarounds. License Packages solve that.Now, Student Managers—users without Skilljar dashboard access—can assign, track, and reassign licenses to students directly in your branded Academy. It’s a simpler, scalable way to manage paid training for external teams, while giving you full visibility and permission control from the dashboard.With License Packages, you can: Create and allocate License Packages to specific Student Managers from the Skilljar dashboard (💡 Pro tip! Automate this process by using our API, Salesforce integration, and custom objects) Let Student Managers handle License Packages directly in your Academy, never in your dashboard. They’ll see which students are enrolled, completions, and whether each student is active in the package. This capability makes it easier to scale training programs, give external teams the access they need, and avoid the delays and deal blockers that come from limited permissions.🕹️ Try it out in Skilljar Academy📚 See how License Packages fit into the bigger picture → [Read the blog]🔗 Learn more in our Help Center

We’ve made a small but mighty improvement to how you manage Ideation Statuses. With this update, community admins can now map ideation statuses to reporting types directly from the Ideation Status page in Settings.Previously, this could only be done through the Product Feedback Dashboard; now it’s available right where you already manage statuses, so it’s easier to access and use.  Here’s what’s new: Manage Mappings in Settings: You can now edit and manage mappings directly within the Ideation Status page. This centralized view makes it easier to track, categorize, and maintain consistency across all your ideas. Mandatory Mapping for New Statuses:Any new ideation status added to the community must be mapped to one of the predefined categories—Open, Delivered, or Closed—at the time it’s created. This ensures everything stays aligned from day one.  Have questions or feedback?
