    Important information for upgrading Notify to Zurich

    Starting with the Zurich release, Notify uses subflows instead of workflows. For existing users in Zurich, your current workflows are still supported. For new users, your Notify plugin installations use subflows.

    As part of this transition, the following workflow activities are available as flow actions and can be used when creating subflows:
    • Join conference call
    • Call
    • Send SMS
    • Forward call
    • Input
    • Hangup
    • Play
    • Record
    • Reject
    • Say
    • Forward to notify client
    • Queue
    Maintain, build, and modify your own custom subflows in Workflow Studio with subflows for new instances. The following base system workflows have been migrated to subflows:
    • (Re)join Conference Call
    • Join Conference Call with muting
    • Join Conference Call with SMS
    Your existing workflows continue to function after the upgrade.
    Note:
    All workflow-related artifacts have been moved to a new plugin, which is maintained in a support-only mode and isn't available for new installations.

    New in the Zurich release
