Roadmap update July 2018

This roadmap update highlights the features & improvements planned for the inSided platform. Priorities can change as we face new challenges. At inSided we are committed to executing iterative and rapid improvements based on our vision and feedback from our users and customers.

Got an idea on how we can improve our platform? Don't hesitate to post your idea on our Ideation board.

Despite of our efforts, we didn't manage to deliver most of the items we announced early June. Due to some unexpected interruptions we experienced delays. This months update will repeat most of the items already announced last month. Good news is that we are close to delivery with most of the items below, they all can be expected in the upcoming weeks.

Product updates coming soon:

.
First beta for API 2.0 - Conversations and Questions
We have been working on a new API which will provide a more consistent REST experience. We are expecting to start a beta for all of our Branded Templates customers soon. The first release of the new API is providing you all the functionality for conversations and domains, also including all moderator actions.

File Upload
Community staff will be able to upload and attach a variety of file types to posts for other community members/visitors to download (for instance, pdf files). You'll also have the option to allow file uploads from any registered member, if it would be beneficial for your community.

inSided Analytics - Community Success Dashboard
The Community Success Dashboard will show global metrics that allow you to track community health and success.

Webhooks for Conversations and Questions
Next to the new API for Conversations and Questions, we will also provide a system where we can push data whenever a specific events occur. This will enable integrations with other systems like CRM. For example, we will be able to send the details of a new topic to the CRM system whenever the create topic even has occurred.
