Working Copy March 2025 Release Notes

(CAM-26566) Floor Plans

March2025CAM-26566

CM & LM

Updated 21 February 2025

You can now create a map from an image file. If you then link the map to a position, end-users can see the map in the app when they select the position. This can be useful, for example, for providing floor plans of the interiors of buildings, or a custom campus map. The image is displayed in the bottom drawer, in the new Floor Plan tab, and the position it is linked to is marked on the image. In mobile apps under React Native, the image is displayed in the bottom drawer, in the Floor Plan tab, and the position to which it is linked is marked on the image. In the web app, the image is displayed in the Maps tab.

(CAM-26384) Product Integration - Newsfeed

March2025CAM-26384

CM & LM

A new product integration has been introduced into campusM: a Newsfeed service. This feature allows you to add one or more feeds, either as RSS feeds or API endpoints, to a Newsfeed page. Users can access this page from a tile on the homepage. The main page of the Newsfeed UI displays the headlines of the items, which it receives from the linked feeds. Users can select these items to view their full content. This feature can be used, for example, to incorporate headlines from two feeds, one an RSS feed of breaking stories from a general news agency, and the other an internal news feed from your organization, supplied via an API endpoint and introducing new developments on campus.

Multiple feeds can be included in a single Newsfeed, and the feeds can be filtered by the end-user to limit the display to selected feeds. Feeds are updated automatically every five minutes, so they are always kept up to date. End-users can also choose to view feed items from preceding days, to save favorites, and to search for items whose titles and authors' names contain a specified string of text.

For more information, see Newsfeed.

(CAM-25799) Login - Logo Displayed on Select a Profile Page

March2025CAM-XXXXX

CM & LM

React Native now supports the display of the institution's logo on the Select a Profile page. If a logo is selected in the Change app device icons page (App Settings > App Settings > Web App Icons), this logo is displayed in the Select a Profile page, followed by the Welcome message configured in Change general settings page (App Settings > App Settings > General Settings). (If no logo is selected, it is replaced in the Select a Profile page with the text, "Welcome to [app name]." "Welcome to" in this message is translatable.)

For more information, see Configuring App Basics and Managing Profiles.

(CAM-25605) Notification Center - Advanced Role Notification

March2025CAM-25605

CM & LM

A new option has been added to the Send Advanced-role Notification page: Under Select your operator, the Only option has been added. Select this option if you only want to send the notification to users with the role selected under First Role. This modification does not add any new functionality to the feature. It was adopted after internal testing showed that it improved performance.
