Narrow Conversations by which Entry Point initiated them, or select a specific Gladly Agent version to compare outcomes across A/B test variants. **Favorite Answers from the Answers List** You can now favorite and unfavorite [Answers](https://help.gladly.com/docs/what-is-answers) directly from the main Answers list. Hover over any Answer to reveal a star icon – click to favorite. Already-favorited Answers display with the star selected. **Track Changes with the Audit Log Report** A new [Audit Log report](https://help.gladly.com/docs/audit-log) is available under Reports → Audit. See a complete record of changes across your organization – who made the change, when it happened, and whether it was made by a user or a system process. Useful for compliance, troubleshooting, and keeping your team accountable. **Improved Autocomplete in Action Adapter and Guide Rules Builder** Autocomplete in the [Custom Actions builder](https://help.gladly.com/developer-tutorials/docs/app-actions-settings-overview#create-a-new-app-action) and [Guide Rule builder](https://help.gladly.com/docs/author-rules) is easier to use. Type partial paths like `conv.name` or `$..id` to jump to deeply nested fields, see your typed characters highlighted in each suggestion, and view truncated paths with the distinguishing tail visible. **Multichannel Conversation Metrics in Insight Builder** Three new fields are available in the Conversation Metrics explore: - Distinct Channel Count - Channel Sources - Count of Multichannel Conversations The ‘% Multichannel’ measure has also been improved to correctly count Conversations where Gladly AI and Gladly Team Agents interacted on different Channels. Note that % of Multichannel Conversations may shift slightly upward for organizations with AI-to-Agent Channel switching. **‘First Real Channel’ Dimension in Insight Builder** A new First Real Channel dimension is available in the Insight Builder and Conversation Metrics explores. Use it instead of ‘First Channel’ when you want a Channel dimension that works for both Gladly AI and Gladly Team Conversations. **Smarter Mid-Conversation Routing** When Gladly AI determines mid-Conversation that a Customer's intent has shifted to a different topic – for example, from order tracking to product questions – the appropriate action now runs on that same turn. Previously, actions like knowledge base searches or order lookups could be skipped after a mid-Conversation routing change, which could lead to less informed responses. **PCI Pal Integration** Agents can now collect payment information securely over the phone – for both inbound and outbound calls – without pausing the call recording. Through the [PCI Pal configuration](https://help.gladly.com/docs/pci-pal-overview), Customers enter their credit card details directly via their keypad while the call continues, and sensitive tones are never captured in the recording. The experience works similarly to [Chat Payments](/product-docs/docs/introduction-to-chat-payments) today. Setup requires a Services agreement and coordination with PCI Pal. Contact Gladly Support to learn more. **![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Agents release tag.png)** **Relative Timestamps in ‘My Customers’ List** Conversations in the ‘My Customers’ list now show [when the last message was sent](https://help.gladly.com/docs/manage-your-my-customers-list#last-message-timestamp) using relative time (e.g., "2m ago"). Most useful for Chats – Conversations with no SLA now have a visible timestamp. When the last message is from the Customer, the timestamp appears bold. **![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Developer release tag.png)** **OAuth Status Display for External App Configurations** See OAuth authorization status for External App configurations that use OAuth, and initiate the authorization flow directly from the editor within App Developer Tools → Apps. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/What's Coming Banner.png) **Test Your AI at Scale with Simulations** We’re getting ready to launch [Simulations](https://help.gladly.com/docs/test-gladly-agent-behavior-with-the-simulator), a new way to validate AI configurations before it reaches Customers. Define Conversation scenarios in plain language, or let AI generate them for you, and run the entire suite with one click. Stay tuned! **Faster, Smarter AI Responses** We've added [Vercel](https://vercel.com/home) and [Neon](https://neon.com/) as sub-processors to power how Gladly AI summarizes and analyzes Conversations. This means more accurate context and smarter responses across every Conversation. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Resolved Issues Banner.png) **Report Column Label Names Reverted** Fixed – Erroneous changes to the following labels on the Agent Metrics and Conversation Metrics explores have been reverted to their original names, restoring CSV export compatibility. No additional action required. - "Agent ID" - "Agent Name or Email" - "Average Conversation Handle Time (sec)" **Gladly AI Conversations Page Stability and Filtering Improvements** Fixed – Several issues affecting the Gladly AI Conversations page have been resolved. Filter changes no longer cause repeated page reloads, search errors no longer redirect to a 404, and the page loads reliably for all organizations regardless of Conversation volume. Unexpected errors show an inline retry option instead of a blank screen. **Component Feedback Lost on Page Close** Fixed – Clicking thumbs up or down on an algorithm component card within the Conversation Review panel and immediately closing the tab could silently discard the feedback. Reviews are reliably saved even when the page is closed right after interaction. **Auto-Reply Rules Showing Invalid Content Types** Fixed – The Auto-Reply snippet type dropdown in Rules could show content types with empty bodies, which could lead to misconfigured Rules that silently failed to send replies. Only valid content types now appear. **Auto-Reply Rules Failing After AI Handoff on Custom Channels** Fixed – Incoming communication rules with Auto-Reply actions failed to trigger after Gladly AI handed off on Custom Channel Conversations. **Default IVR Voice Displaying Incorrectly** Fixed – Newly created IVR nodes displayed "man" as the default voice even though the actual default was "woman." The correct default for text-to-speech nodes is now reflected. **Wrong Recording Playing After Pause** Fixed – Clicking play on a phone call or voicemail recording could play a different recording from the Conversation Timeline if another recording had been previously played and paused. **Secret Names Not Recognized in Custom Action HTTP Steps** Fixed – Secret names created in the Secrets section couldn't be referenced in HTTP step authentication fields in the Custom Action editor. Secrets now work correctly in Bearer, Basic Auth, and API Key configurations. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Don't Miss Out Banner.png) **RESOURCE** **Making Sense of Agentic Commerce** In [our last post](https://www.gladly.ai/blog/what-is-agentic-commerce/), we argued that agentic commerce is bigger than shopping agents — it’s commerce and service converging into a single AI-powered experience that compounds customer context across every interaction. The brands that build for this will drive revenue from conversations they’re already having. But how does it actually work? As AI agents operate across sites, third-party surfaces, and systems, what connects everything underneath? MCP, ACP, UCP, A2A — the acronyms are stacking up. This post breaks down what they are, how they fit together, and what actually matters. [Read more](https://www.gladly.ai/blog/making-sense-of-agentic-commerce/) **EVENT** **Gladly Connect live 2026 – Kicking Off Next Week in Atlanta** This is where the real conversations are happening: how teams are actually deploying AI, what’s changed in the last year, and where it’s driving measurable impact across the business. From scaling without losing context to rethinking how CX contributes to revenue — not just cost. We’ll also get into what’s coming next: how AI is reshaping discovery, buying journeys, and the role of CX going forward. Featuring leaders from StockX, The Black Tux, Ollie, Crate & Barrel, Condé Nast, and more. [See you in Atlanta!](https://www.gladly.ai/events/gladly-connect-live-2026/?utm_source=marketo&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=parent-05-2026-event-gladly-connect-live-26-demandg&utm_content=release-notes) **REVIEWS** **You're In Good Company** Love using Gladly?

Leave us a review on the [Shopify App Store](https://apps.shopify.com/gladly) and help other merchants discover how Gladly creates seamless, revenue-driving conversations. **RESOURCE** **Gladly Referral Promotion** Love using Gladly? Now’s your chance to share the experience with others in your professional network. Submit your B2C or e-commerce referral to receive up to **$2,000**! Visit the [Refer-A-Friend program](https://www.gladly.com/refer-a-friend-gladly-connect/) to learn how. ## April 22, 2026 ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/What's Shipped Banner.png) **![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Admins and Managers release tag.png)** **A/B Test Gladly Agent Versions** Admins can now [split traffic between two Gladly Agent versions](https://help.gladly.com/docs/set-up-a-b-testing-for-guides) to compare performance side by side. Choose any version – deployed or not – and configure the split directly from the [Entry Points page](/product-docs/docs/connect-or-disconnect-gladly-ai-from-an-entry-point). Use it to test a new version against the current one, or compare two different Gladly Agents, before committing to a full rollout. To review results, use the new Entry Point and test-specific filters on the[Gladly Improvement Opportunities dashboard](/product-docs/docs/gladly-improvement-opportunities) to see how each version performed. **Set a Fallback Guide for Your Gladly Agent** Admins can now designate a Fallback Guide at the Gladly Agent level. The Fallback Guide handles Conversations when no specific Guide matches the Customer's intent, ensuring every Conversation gets a response. - Automatic for most organizations, no action needed – Your existing Questions & Recommendations Guide is set as the Fallback Guide by default. - Configurable – Choose or change which Guide serves as the fallback directly from the list of active Guides for a given Gladly Agent. - Prompted when missing – Organizations without a Questions & Recommendations Guide will see an in-product prompt to configure one. **Gladly Team Recontact Metrics Included in Insight Builder Gladly AI Sessions** Gladly AI sessions reporting in Insight Builder now tracks Customer recontacts across both AI sessions and sessions handled by a human Agent in Gladly Team. This gives you a more complete picture of when Customers reconnect after a resolved AI interaction. New fields available in Insight Builder: - Was Eligible Session – Filter to exclude transfer detector handoffs with no response. - Teams Recontact Count (24/72 Hours) – Count of resolved sessions where the Customer subsequently contacted a human Agent. - Recontact Rate of Resolutions (24/72 Hours) – Recontact rate with resolved sessions as the denominator. - Resolution Rate without Recontact (24/72 Hours) – Resolution rate excluding sessions that led to a recontact. Gladly AI Sessions report CSV downloads remain unchanged, however recontact data is now inclusive of recontacts for Gladly Team sessions. **Deep Links for Individual Gladly AI Reviews** Review items on the [Reviews page](https://help.gladly.com/docs/review-gladly-ai-performance) now have shareable deep links. Click the link icon on any review row to copy a URL that takes recipients directly to that specific review. **![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Agents release tag.png)** **Dark Mode Now Available** Designed for Agents pulling long hours or late-night shifts, [Dark Mode](https://help.gladly.com/docs/activate-dark-mode-beta) reduces eye strain and helps maintain focus with a sleek, low-light interface. All organizations default to Light Mode, but Agents can switch to Dark Mode anytime from their Profile settings. **![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Developer release tag.png)** **Install Custom Apps Directly from Admin Settings** Admins can now install Custom Apps directly from the Apps page by uploading a ZIP archive, with clear validation messages and resolution guidance. Access it from App Developer Tools → Apps. We've also added dedicated configuration forms for the following apps to simplify setup. - Aftership - BigCommerce - Magento - Ordergroove - Recharge - Recurly - Yotpo Note that newly installed apps won't appear in the list until they're configured. **Loading Indicators for App Actions Tables** [Custom Actions](https://help.gladly.com/developer-tutorials/docs/app-actions-settings-overview) and [App Actions](https://help.gladly.com/developer-tutorials/docs/what-is-an-app-action) lists now show loading placeholders for the Last Run and Success Rate columns while data is loading. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/What's Coming Banner.png) **Test Your AI at Scale with Simulations** We’re getting ready to launch [Simulations](https://help.gladly.com/docs/test-gladly-agent-behavior-with-the-simulator), a new way to validate AI configurations before it reaches Customers.

Stay tuned! ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Resolved Issues Banner.png) **Chat Widget Header Not Visible on Mobile** Fixed – The Chat widget header wasn't visible on mobile when opening the widget from the minimized icon. The header now displays correctly. **Custom App Logs Timing Out** Fixed – The Custom App logs page could time out with a server error when loading runs with many associated Conversations. Logs now load faster and more reliably. **Action Adapter Logs Failing to Load** Fixed – The Action Adapter logs page could fail to load for adapters with many runs due to database query timeouts. Logs now load reliably regardless of run volume. **Guide Navigation Order Incorrect in Inspect Summary** Fixed – The Conversation Review panel could show Guide and section navigation rows in the wrong order when the first section of a turn ran an action without generating a response before switching Guides. The navigation breadcrumb now correctly reflects the actual order in which AI assessed the steps within a Guide. **IVR Audio Issues with English Language Nodes** Fixed – Message and Menu Nodes in the IVR using English as the language could trigger a configuration warning with our telephony provider, potentially resulting in audio issues. English language defaults now resolve correctly. **Agent Summary Report Missing Time Data for Unchanged States** Fixed – The Agent Summary report could show missing availability, away, active, and focus time data per Channel when an Agent remained in the same state for the entire reporting window. The report now correctly calculates time even when no state changes occurred during the selected time range. **Facebook and Instagram Messages Failing After Re-Authentication** Fixed – Outbound messages on Facebook Messenger and Instagram could fail with delivery errors after re-authenticating a social Channel. The system now correctly refreshes the OAuth token during re-authentication. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Don't Miss Out Banner.png) **RESOURCE** **What is Agentic Commerce – And Why It's Not Just About Shopping Agents** Customers are using ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google to discover, compare, and buy. Some of them are completing purchases without ever visiting a brand's website. But if you stop there, you're seeing one layer of a much bigger shift.

Open a Guide, scroll to the bottom, and click "+ Manage Quality Checks" to toggle individual checks on or off. If a Guide uses a Knowledge Sources action, the toggle menu will flag that turning off the "Implied mutation" and "Invalid phrases" checks is recommended. **Duplicate Chat Configurations** A new ["Duplicate” option](https://help.gladly.com/docs/create-and-configure-chat#duplicate-a-chat) is available in the Chat configuration menu. Select it, enter a new Chat name, and Gladly creates a copy with the full configuration – colors, theme, quick actions, onboarding messages, office hours, and all other settings. Useful when you need a near-identical configuration and want to tweak only what differs. **Duplicate Existing Answers** Spin up [a copy of an existing Answer](https://help.gladly.com/docs/create-edit-duplicate-answers#duplicate-an-answer) in one click. The Answer editor opens pre-populated with all original content, including Languages and Audiences, with "(copy)" appended to the name. A quick way to build on existing Answers without starting from scratch. **Deep Links for Algorithm Component Cards in Conversation Review** The [Conversation Review panel](https://help.gladly.com/docs/inspect-and-debug-ai-conversations#conversation-review-panel-overview)updates the page URL when you expand an algorithm component card, allowing Admins to easily copy and share a direct link to a specific component. Previously, deep links were only available from the Reviews page. **New Voice Controls Available to Admins** Admins can now manage key Voice settings directly, without filing a Support ticket. - Voice Summaries & Transcriptions – Toggle on or off under Settings → [Conversation Workflow](https://help.gladly.com/docs/conversation-workflow). - Call Recordings – Toggle on or off per phone number under Settings → Channels → Voice. - Caller ID Display – View the Caller ID (if different from the endpoint address) for each phone number under Settings → Channels → Voice. **Agent Name Attributes for SSO Just-In-Time Provisioning** Configure which SAML attributes are used to set an Agent's display name during [SSO JIT (Just-In-Time) provisioning](https://help.gladly.com/docs/activate-and-manage-single-sign-on#allow-jit-justintime-user-provisioning). Under Settings → Security and Compliance → Single Sign-On, a new "Agent Name Attributes" field lets you specify the attribute keys (e.g., FirstName, LastName) that your Identity Provider sends. These values are combined to form the Agent's name automatically. If left empty, Gladly tries common attribute names and standard SAML formats. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/What's Coming Banner.png) **Heads Up: Possible Duplicate Customer Profile Events During This Week’s Release** As part of improvements to how Customer Profile events are handled under the hood, there's a small chance you may see duplicate webhooks and event-bridge events for `CUSTOMER_PROFILE/CREATED` and `CUSTOMER_PROFILE/DELETED` during our weekly release window (Wednesdays, ~10:30–11:10 PM Pacific). If you've built integrations that rely on these events, please make sure they can safely handle duplicates without triggering unintended downstream effects. **We're bringing Dark Mode to Gladly** We are excited to introduce Dark Mode to the Gladly Team Agent Desktop! Designed for those pulling long hours or late-night shifts, this feature reduces eye strain and helps maintain focus by providing a sleek, low-light interface. Want early access? Dark Mode is currently in beta. If you’d like to activate it for your team and share your feedback, please contact Gladly Support to get started. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Resolved Issues Banner.png) **Same-Site Links Opening in New Tabs** Fixed – Links to pages within the same site were opening in a new tab instead of the current tab. Same-site links now open in place, while external links continue to open in a new tab. **Shipping Status Incorrectly Masked as Sensitive Data** Fixed – Fields like "shippingStatus" were being masked because the system detected "pin" within the word "shipping." Fields containing "pin" as part of a longer word now display their actual values. **Guide Showing as "Unknown" in Inspect Summary for Immediate Handoffs** Fixed – When a Guide handed off at its very first section, the Inspect Summary within the Conversation Review panel displayed "Unknown" as the Guide name. The correct Guide name and section now appear. **Entry Point Update Errors for Unpublished IVR Nodes** Fixed – Updating Entry Point connections could fail when an IVR had an unpublished draft with incomplete node configurations. Entry Point updates now reference the latest published IVR version instead of the draft. **Users with Limited Permissions Unexpectedly Logged Out** Fixed – Users with only Liveboards or Answers permissions were being logged out shortly after signing in. Sessions now persist correctly regardless of permission scope. **Email Replies Creating New Conversations When HTML Is Stripped** Fixed – Email replies that strip HTML formatting were creating new Conversations instead of threading back to the original. Threading now works reliably for plain-text replies as well. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Don't Miss Out Banner.png) **RESOURCE** **What Shoptalk Spring 2026 Revealed About Retail's AI Moment** Gladly attended Shoptalk Spring 2026.

Add words to the Pronunciation Dictionary under Channels → Voice → Voice AI, enter the phonetic spelling, and preview how the AI will say it before saving. The dictionary applies globally across all automation-enabled phone numbers. **Search and Filter on the Reviews Page** The [Reviews page](https://help.gladly.com/docs/inspect-and-debug-ai-conversations#review-gladly-ai-performance) now includes a search bar and dropdown filters to sort by ratings. Find specific feedback faster, filter by thumbs up or thumbs down ratings, and sort by date or reviewer to spot patterns across your Gladly AI Conversation reviews. **Consistent Email Formatting for Gladly AI Responses** Responses generated by Gladly AI on the Email Channel now follow a consistent structure: Greeting, Body, and Signature. As a reminder, the [signature is configurable](https://help.gladly.com/docs/set-up-basics#configure-a-signature) within the Basics tile under your Gladly Agent settings. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/What's Coming Banner.png) **We're bringing Dark Mode to Gladly** We are excited to introduce Dark Mode to the Gladly Team Agent Desktop!

If you’d like to activate it for your team and share your feedback, please contact Gladly Support to get started. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Resolved Issues Banner.png) **Invisible Send Button in Chat Widget with Light Brand Colors** Fixed — The send and attachment button icons in the Chat widget could become invisible when the configured brand color was white or near-white. The widget now detects low-contrast colors and falls back to a visible default. **Handoff Summaries Showing Proposed Responses Not Actually Sent** Fixed — Handoff summaries included proposed responses that were never sent to Customers, giving Agents incorrect context. Summaries now reflect only the actions Gladly AI actually took. **"View Logs" Links Not Filtering Correctly from Review Panel** Fixed — "View logs" links from the Conversation Review panel weren't filtering correctly by Conversation and date when navigating to the App Platform or Custom Action runs pages. Links now apply the correct filters. **Unfulfilled Action Quality Check Not Triggering Correctly** Fixed — The Unfulfilled Action quality check would not trigger if a related action had occurred earlier in the Conversation, even if no supporting action happened in the current turn. The check now correctly evaluates against the current turn only. **Detailed Logging Not Capturing App Platform Data Pulls** Fixed — Detailed logs for App Platform data pulls were not being recorded when detailed logging was enabled. Logs now capture correctly. **Delete Button on Automatic Topics Difficult to Click** Fixed — The delete button on the Automatic Topics page was sometimes difficult to click, requiring multiple attempts. The button is now fully visible and reliably clickable. **Inconsistent Row Highlighting on Connect Entry Points Page** Fixed — Only alternating rows would highlight on hover on the Connect Entry Points page. All rows now highlight consistently. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Don't Miss Out Banner.png) **EVENT** **TOMORROW: Get the Latest on Everything Coming to Gladly** A lot has changed — and even more is on the way.

Choose your AI's voice from a curated set of options and control your Voice setup in just a few clicks. **Password Requirements Configurable in Settings** Compliance Admins can now [configure your organization's password policy](https://help.gladly.com/docs/configure-password-requirements) under Settings → Security and Compliance. Set minimum password length and other requirements to match your organization's security standards. Password reset pages now enforce the configured policy automatically—previously, resets always defaulted to an 8-character minimum regardless of your settings. **Clone Existing Rules** [Duplicate a Rule](https://help.gladly.com/docs/create-a-rule#duplicate-a-rule) directly from Settings → Rules. Hover over any Rule to reveal a copy icon — clicking it opens the Rule editor pre-filled with all Triggers, Conditions, and Actions from the original. The cloned Rule is named "Rule Name (copy)" and ready to customize, making it faster to create variations. **Leave Feedback on Algorithm Components in Conversation Review** Leave feedback on individual algorithm component cards in the [Conversation Review panel](https://help.gladly.com/docs/inspect-and-debug-ai-conversations). Thumbs up or thumbs down the output, add text feedback, and if something looks off, select which alternate option AI should have chosen. This gives your team a more granular way to evaluate and improve AI decision-making at the component level. **Algorithm Component Feedback Visible on the Reviews Page** Reviewers can drill into feedback left on individual algorithm components directly from the [Reviews page](https://help.gladly.com/docs/inspect-and-debug-ai-conversations#review-gladly-ai-performance) – alongside existing Conversation-level reviews.

Select an existing Guide, choose which Gladly Agent you want to copy it to, and it shows up as a draft in that Gladly Agent's view. No need to rebuild a Guide from scratch when you want to reuse it across multiple Gladly Agents. **Smoother Interruption Handling for Voice AI** It’s possible for Customers to interrupt Gladly AI mid-response on Voice, and now those interruptions are handled more naturally. AI adapts to being cut off and picks back up smoothly, making the experience feel closer to a real Conversation. **Gladly AI Sessions Detail Reports** [Two new reports](https://help.gladly.com/docs/gladly-ai-reports) are available under Reports → Gladly AI: - Gladly AI Sessions Detail Report - Gladly AI Sessions Detail with Messages Report Both provide detailed information about individual Gladly AI sessions, with the Messages variant including the full message history. Use these reports alongside the [Gladly Improvement Opportunities dashboard](https://help.gladly.com/docs/gladly-improvement-opportunities) to dig into underlying data and run your own analysis. **Entry Point Warning Banner on Guides Page** A new warning banner appears on the Guides page when a [Gladly Agent has no connected Entry Points](https://help.gladly.com/docs/connect-or-disconnect-gladly-ai-from-an-entry-point), prompting you to configure Channels to activate the Gladly Agent. The banner can be dismissed and stays dismissed for the browser session. **Boosted Email Conversations Route Ahead of Tasks** Email Conversations boosted with [People Match](/product-docs/docs/people-match) now route ahead of Tasks, even if a Task has an earlier due date. Previously, a boosted email could get stuck behind older Tasks in the queue, delaying delivery. This update ensures high-priority Conversations reach Agents faster. **![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Agents release tag.png)** **Favorite Answers Now Sync Across Devices** Your [favorite Answers](https://help.gladly.com/docs/mark-answers-as-favorite-1) now persist across devices and browser sessions. Previously, favorites were stored locally and could be lost when clearing browser data or switching machines. Favorites now stay in sync no matter where you log in. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/What's Coming Banner.png) **We're bringing Dark Mode to Gladly** We are excited to introduce Dark Mode to the Gladly Team Agent Desktop!

Date filtering now applies consistently across the full range. **Order Lookup Failures for Email Conversations** Fixed – AI-powered order lookup actions were failing for some Customers reaching out via Email. Lookups now complete correctly across all Channels. **Voice AI Recording Ended Early** Fixed – In rare cases, a Voice AI recording would stop before the AI interaction had fully ended. Recordings now capture the complete interaction. **Admin Scheduling Forms Crashed on Date Selection** Fixed – Selecting certain dates in Admin scheduling forms (Proactive SMS, Email, Voice, and IVR schedules) caused the page to crash with a white screen. Date selection now works correctly. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/7047b671-c4f2-4df0-bb0a-b9b511fd2452/Images/Documentation/Don't Miss Out Banner.png) **EVENT** **Gladly Roadmap Webinar** A lot has changed in Gladly.
