Integration.app grows and changes every day to build great customer experiences. Welcome to the edition of our changelog at Integration.app! 

We're excited to share some significant updates and new features that have been rolled out. Our team has been hard at work improving existing connectors and adding new functionalities to provide you with a seamless integration experience. Here's a roundup of what's new:

## Product Updates:

### Universal Actions

[Universal Actions](https://integration.app/articles/changelog/universal-integration-actions) simplifies complex customer-facing integrations, allowing you to create a single action that adapts across multiple applications and customer setups. Now, tasks like recording activities to a CRM become streamlined, saving you time and eliminating the need for extensive custom coding.

### “For Each” Flow Node

The new "For Each" node in the flow builder is a fascinating development, enabling more complex, iterative workflow processes. This, along with the new UI for testing actions and the ability to customize pre-built integration logic, shows a focus on flexibility and efficiency in building and testing integrations. Enables more advanced flows beyond just linear steps.

New UI for testing actions in the console. Allows quick building, testing and iterating on integration logic and actions. Helps build and test faster without having to go back and forth between testing and editing.

### Customizing Integration Logic

Ability to customize pre-built integration logic using implementation overrides. For example, you can now filter Pipedrive activities by adding custom query parameters. It allows customizing default logic without rebuilding from scratch.

**Get Notifications About New Emails**: This functionality would enable users to receive alerts or notifications when new emails arrive in their Gmail inbox. This could be particularly useful for staying on top of important communications and ensuring timely responses.

**Send Emails**: This feature would allow users to compose and send emails directly through the Gmail connector interface. It might offer additional tools or integrations that enhance the standard email-sending experience in Gmail, such as templates, scheduling options, or integration with other applications.

**List Emails**: Now you can use Emails data collection to get the list of all customer emails.

### **Released  [Slack connector](https://integration.app/connectors/slack)**

New data collections for slack messages and channels was release. Now you can build integrations that read/write channel message as well as receive events about incoming ones

 Product Updates & New integrations | Dec 2023

Introducing Universal Actions to make complex customer-facing integrations simple 🥳!

Building integrations across multiple apps and customers is tough. Even something as simple as “recording activity to CRM” can become complex when you consider:

- **The Basic Scenario:** Record an Activity and link it with a Contact.
- **App-Specific Details:** Each app does it differently, like setting a “ContactId” field in Salesforce or creating a contact-activity association in Hubspot.
- **Customer-Specific Needs:** Every customer has their own way of structuring activities and organizing contacts.

Normally, this would take weeks to implement well...

But now, with our new Universal Action feature, it's straightforward. Here’s how it transforms the process:

![Universal Actions](https://static.integration.app/universal_actions_2_2ed1f15caa.png)

1. **Create a Universal Action:** Set up a general scenario that works across multiple apps.
2. **Apply it to multiple applications:** Use the universal action to generate application-specific logic for every app you want to integrate with.
3. **Customize customer instances:** Adjust the Action for each customer’s unique setup.

Say goodbye to writing endless "IF" statements and the headache of troubleshooting custom integrations for those extra-creative customers.
