Xano R1.55.2 Release Announcement

Hello Xano Community! We are excited to introduce you to our latest update, Release 1.55.2, which brings a host of new features and enhancements designed to improve your experience and extend your capabilities within Xano.

New Features in Release 1.55.2:

Middleware Function Stack:

• Introducing Middleware: A powerful tool allowing for the creation of reusable logic that operates before input validation and before a response is sent.
• Apply Globally or Locally: Middleware can be applied at different levels - API, API Group, or across the entire workspace.

Diff Support for Function Stacks:

• Change Visibility: Now, when reverting changes or merging branches within function stacks, you can view precise changes with our new diff support.
• Informed Decisions: This feature helps you make informed decisions by allowing you to see exactly what changed between versions.

Expression Autocomplete:

• Streamlined Building Process: Enhance your expression construction with our new autocomplete feature, which suggests inputs, variables, and filters.
• Improved Efficiency: Save time and reduce errors with quicker, more accurate expression creation.

Custom Function History:

• Track Past Requests: Like API endpoints, custom functions now maintain a history of past requests.
• Enhanced Debugging: Review previous runs for more effective problem-solving and debugging.

Public Spreadsheet Editing Mode:

• Expanded Sharing Capabilities: Following our database table sharing feature, external users can now edit data in shared tables with granted permission.

Private Swagger Documentation:

• Enhanced Privacy Options: Introducing a new setting for Swagger documentation to make it accessible yet private, requiring a tokenized URL for access.

Get Database Schema Function:

• Efficiency Improvements: Retrieve the entire schema of a table or specific field in one go, streamlining your workflow.

Enabling and Disabling Response Items:

• Flexible API Responses: The no-code API Builder now allows you to quickly enable or disable response items, facilitating smoother development.
