20.1.0 Cloud Release Highlights

Pia - Generated Diagrams Match Your Template's Shape Styling

Diagrams Pia generates from a template now pick up the styling of matching shapes in the template's custom shape library, the same way QuickMap-generated diagrams do — so a Pia diagram looks like your standard shapes.

API - Get a Diagram as an Image

New REST API endpoints turn a web diagram into an image, so other systems can pull diagram images without opening the editor.

Simulation - Nested Organizations and Resource Subtypes

The simulation Resources tab now supports deeper structure: organizations can nest into suborganizations under a parent organization, and resource types can have subtypes under a parent type. Switch between a By organization and an As list view.

Diagramming - Combine Several Pools Into One

You can now combine several web-diagram pools into one — each selected pool becomes a lane in a single new pool, keeping its name, its own lanes, its shapes, and its styling. It's a quick path from separate participant pools to a single cross-functional diagram.

Templates - Styling for Generated and Imported Diagrams

When you create a diagram from a template with QuickMap, the shapes QuickMap generates now take on the styling of matching shapes in the template's custom shape library — so a generated diagram looks like your standard shapes instead of the default theme. The same applies when you import a BPMN file: choose a repository template and the imported diagram takes on its styling, headers and footers, and page setup, with the template's custom shapes replacing the matching imported shapes. The import option is also available through the REST API.

Reporting - COUNT Function for IQL

Reports gain a COUNT function for the iGrafx Query Language (IQL): wrap a relationship or list property in count(...) to report how many values it holds, show that number as a column, or filter on it — for example count(responsible) > 3.

Reporting - Choose a Report Download Format

When you download a report, you now choose a format: Process Design view, which matches the on-screen report with clickable object names, or Plain data view, a basic dataset that adds fields such as object ID and type. You can save that choice so future downloads skip the dialog.

Narrative Reports - Hide Empty Sub-sections

Narrative sections that list fields can now leave out the empty ones. Turn on Hide empty sub-sections so a narrative shows only the fields that have a value.

Search - Dashboard Content Included

The search index now covers dashboard titles and the text in rich-text gadgets. Add Dashboard Content to the Search in filter to find dashboards by what they contain.

User Management - See Each User's Directory Source

The User Details page in User Management now shows each account's Directory — the identity source it belongs to, whether the local directory or a connected LDAP or SCIM directory.

Object Picker - Search by Object ID

Object pickers now recognize a numeric search as an object ID: type an object's ID and the exact match is listed first, even when its name doesn't contain those digits.
