Agents & AI
Start Conversation Hook Intelligence - Agents can run an on-demand automation before the first message in a conversation, so the agent has the context it needs on turn one.- Map inputs from available metadata such as user name, email, and record ID.
- Capture automation outputs as a message sent to the agent before the first turn.
- Optionally show users a progress message while the automation runs.
- Apply an existing OpenAI agreement to voice so your organization controls voice AI costs and usage directly.
- Choose the OpenAI provider option when configuring a voice agent.
- Keep legitimate callers moving when they call from an unknown number instead of hitting a dead end.
- Use PIN authentication for recognized numbers and Employee ID + OTP as the fallback.
Apps
Batched Record Field Updates Record Details - Editing several fields in a row on a record saves the changes together as a single update, so closely-timed edits no longer overwrite each other and the last value entered for each field is what sticks.- If a save fails, only the fields in that save roll back.
- Background record refreshes will not overwrite edits that are still being saved.
- Team members see one queue of work assigned to any group they belong to.
- Membership changes are picked up on the next load without reconfiguring the view.
- Supported formats include DOCX, PPTX, PPT, ODT, ODS, ODP, and TIFF.
- Both the side-by-side preview panel and full-screen preview support these formats.
- A
/previewAPI endpoint returns any supported attachment as a PDF.
Automations
Automation Slack DM Automations - Send automation updates as direct messages to any user in Slack, in addition to posting in channels, so time-sensitive notifications and alerts reach people where they already work.- Send a direct message to any user in Slack from the Send Slack Message action.
- Include a title and message contents, with
{{value_references}}that resolve when the automation runs, plus an optional link button that opens a URL you specify. - These are one-way notifications — recipients cannot reply to the DM to reach an agent.
Platform
Parent Trace ID for Trace Forwarding Org Settings - Include a W3Ctraceparent header on requests to Elementum so exported spans nest under your calling span, and the request appears in your platform as a single connected trace.- Exported spans adopt the trace ID you supply and attach under your parent span ID.
- Requires a Trace Forwarding endpoint that is enabled and assigned to the environment.

Platform
Digital Labor Dashboard Reporting - Put a number on the value your AI is delivering — quantify the work your agents and automations complete as full-time-employee equivalents you can take straight to leadership.- Tell the productivity story at a glance, from total Digital Workforce FTE down to hours saved and a daily trend.
- Pinpoint where automation is paying off by breaking impact down by app, agent, or your own categories.
- Make the numbers yours with custom time rules, then export to Excel to build the case for scaling further.

Agents & AI
Custom Inputs & Outputs on Skill Automation Tools Intelligence - Skill builders get the same control over automation tool interfaces that agent builders already have — closing a key parity gap in the Skills framework.- Define custom inputs and outputs on automation-type Skill tools, just like you already can on agent automation tools.
- When configured, the agent uses your custom inputs as its interface for the tool, guiding it to the right values for more accurate, predictable results.
- Adopt it at your own pace: automation tools without custom inputs keep their existing behavior.
- Match each Skill tool to your governance model by running it as the Agent default, Publisher, Current user, or Service account.
- Consolidate one-off agent tools into shared, reusable Skills with confidence, keeping the same fine-grained access control you had before.
- Adopt it with zero rework: existing tools keep running unchanged and new tools default to Agent default.
Apps
Multiple Closed Statuses Apps - Model the way your team really closes work — mark every ending you need as closed, not just one, so reporting and automations stay accurate.- Tag any number of status options as closed, like Closed-Good, Closed-Bad, Canceled, and Complete, instead of being boxed into a single closed status.
- Trust your numbers everywhere, since every closed value carries the same indicator across reports, filters, dashboards, and automations.
- Keep the record and its attachment on screen together, so you can reference both while you work.
- Expand the preview to the full viewport with one click when you need a closer look.
- Works with the file types Elementum already supports for preview, so it fits right into your existing workflow.
Automations
“Is In” Filters for Automations Automations - Match a whole list of values in one filter — pull every record you care about in a single Search Records condition instead of stacking OR conditions or hardcoding values.- Return every record whose field value is in a list you supply, using the new is in operator on Text, HTML, Number, and Decimal fields.
- Build the list at runtime by feeding an Execute Script output straight into the filter, so your search adapts to each run.
- Replace long chains of OR conditions with one clean condition that’s easier to read and maintain.
- Surface automated updates in the same Updates feed your team already watches, so important changes never slip through the cracks.
- Turn generic notifications into context-rich messages with dynamic values that resolve when the automation runs.
- Add a clear, human-readable trail to any process by triggering the action from any automation you already run.
Experience
Customizable Side Nav Navigation - Make Elementum feel like yours — put the apps, agents, and views you use every day one click away and clear out everything else.- Keep your most-used work within reach by pinning Apps, Agents, Conversations, Views, Elements, Tables, and Tasks to a dedicated section.
- Cut the clutter by hiding the items and sections you don’t need and reordering the rest to match how you actually work.
- Set it once and move faster every day — your personalized layout follows you across sessions, pages, and logins.
Platform
Environments Secret Vault Org Settings - Stop hardcoding secrets and rewriting configuration every time you promote work — store your keys once and let each environment resolve to the right value automatically.- Keep API keys and other sensitive values out of your configuration with write-only secrets that can’t be read back once set.
- Reference saved vault entries as values in Automations. At runtime, the value resolves from whichever environment the automation runs in.
- Control exactly who can view or manage every entry with per-entry access policies.
- Rotate keys on your own schedule, right from Organization Settings, to keep pace with your security policies.
- Swap with confidence: test the new key against a live connection before you apply it, so you never break an active connection.
- See exactly what’s changing, with the current and new keys displayed side by side during the rotation.
