When you add file attachments to tasks, they are automatically organized within your project folder structure by phase.

You now have the option to add files to your project immediately as soon as the upload is complete. Just turn on ‘Automatic uploads’ on the upload screen and files will be added to your project even if you are away from your computer. Or uncheck to edit files and re-order first.

You can now upload new assets, galleries and submissions directly within your tasks. You can also add bookmarks or create brand new documents from within a task as well. All new files are automatically organized into the same phase as the task.

We’ve been working under the hood and have now launched various bug fixes and security improvements including drag-and-drop for document tables and improved login methods.

When opening a task attachment, you can now quickly jump to the folder that the file is in by clicking the “Jump to Folder” menu option, or by clicking the folder name directly under the file title.

If a user navigates to a file they no longer have access to, we have now added the option to request access to the file. The workspace team will receive the access request via email and can click the email link to quickly update permissions for the file.

We’ve updated the submissions page to remove the project sidebar and now expand into a full screen view. This gives you a more focused view within the submissions file type, and clarifies the navigation to easily exit the submission.

You can now instantly open bookmarks in a new tab by clicking anywhere on the bookmark thumbnail. You can still access the bookmark settings, comments and status by clicking the three-dot menu and choosing ‘Open in Assemble’.

You can now quickly delete files directly from the folder view by clicking the three-dot menu beneath the file.

We’re rolling out a new brand across all product touch points, providing a more modern look and feel for you and your teammates. You’ll notice the new brand on our website, sign up and login pages and email notifications.
