1. Dynamic fields now support external lookups: We’ve introduced new updates that expand the capabilities of dynamic fields to make them even more powerful.
Previously, dynamic fields were limited to data sourced from static lookup tables. Now, you can configure dynamic fields using data query and web request rules, allowing you to pull live values from external applications directly into your metadata in real-time. This update allows dynamic fields to display field value options that are based on live business data, reflecting the most current information instantly, no matter where it is stored. In addition, dynamic field configuration is now available within the template designer, providing a more intuitive place to create and manage these connections.
Together, these updates offer new ways for teams to keep their repository metadata accurate, current and synchronized across their line-of-business systems.

2. Smart Fields can now use list options supplied by dynamic fields to guide metadata extraction. When a dynamic field is enabled for AI-powered extraction, Smart Fields will check the captured data against the field's dynamically filtered options. Organizations can continue to manage these options in their existing source, without duplicating this information in each Smart Fields prompt description.
3. Expanded Event Tracking in Audit Trail: Audit Trail now records and displays additional event types, extending visibility into security-related activities and account-level operations.
4. Laserfiche Forms Mobile App Update: You can now sign into the Forms mobile app on your iOS or Android device using fingerprint or facial recognition. This update also supports a deep linking feature that allows you to open the app directly to a specific form.
5. Repository API update: The Repository API now supports new capabilities for interacting with documents and metadata, including the ability to manage access rights, document annotations, records management and users’ Recent Documents, Starred documents and personal Collections. See the full changelog for more details.
6. Idle Session Termination: Administrators can now enable idle session timeout to automatically sign users out after a selected period of inactivity.
