Webhooks 2.0

We made an entire overhaul of our webhook integrations. Initially, when we developed the webhooks feature. It was very minimal and only supported webhook events relating to release notes. While this worked initially, our platform grew and required more comprehensive webhook support.

With the new Webhooks 2.0 release, we have opened up the Onset platform to provide the possibility to develop more extensive integrations. You can subscribe and listen to events from almost all entities, such as releases, roadmaps, projects, etc. Using the emitted notification and data, you could trigger CI builds, perform calculations, or send messages on specific conditions – you name it.

The entire list of supported entities and events is available in our documentation.

November 2022

Application Dark Mode

Our journey to the dark side is complete. You can set your preferred appearance permanently in the User Settings or have it switch based on your system preference.

Emoji Support 👋

Typing : will bring up a list of suggested emojis. The list will filter as you type, so once you find the emoji you're looking for, select it from the list and press Enter to complete the highlighted result.

Page Visibility Settings

Previously, to make your page visible publicly, you had to have at least one public release note or a roadmap item, and your page would automatically be available to the public. Going forward, you are required to toggle page visibility manually. All pages are defaulted to hidden, and you choose when you want to share it with the world.

Available Options:

  • Hidden: page is hidden from the public.
  • Public: page is visible to everyone.

We’ve gone dark y’all! We are following up on our previous release and rolling out dark mode for our widget. Unlike the page, dark mode is enabled programmatically, with no toggles.
