EDELOG 6.18
New Features and Non-Breaking Changes
Modern Jobs App
EDELOG 6.18 introduces a new version of EDELOG Classic’s Jobs app: With this app, you can automate specific aspects of your daily workflows as well as create schedules for planned interval-based task. Jobs can be integrated into different apps on the EDELOG platform, like Data Explorer and Forms. It uses EDELOG’s workflow system to create complex multi-step automations.
User/Organization Access Colors
EDELOG can now be customized even further: Users can now choose a preferred accent color, that will affect EDELOG’s overall look and feel. Besides that, Organization admins can define an organization accent color, that will be provided to users as another option for them to choose from.
By default, EDELOG will continue to use the current “colorful” appearance, that reflects each app’s accent color for all UI elements.
Integration of New Forms App with Data Explorer
Forms Beta now works together with Data Explorer: You can link forms to data records from within the Forms app.
From within Data Explorer, you can now create a new form directly from the activity feed. You can also create new forms or link existing ones from the new Forms data sheet, that can be attached to any database.

IAM
The current session can now be terminated via an API call. Previously, sessions could only be terminated via API by terminating all sessions of a given user.
With this release, we’re deprecating the option to generate globally accessible login tokens. Instead of that, we’re introducing a new
AppLoginTokenAPI that can be used to create app-specific login QR codes with a short lifespan.
