Important Notes About This Release

  • SOTI Snap 3.0 agents are now available in both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store
  • SOTI Snap supports the latest versions of Android 10 and iOS 14
  • SOTI Snap no longer supports “/” in the report format settings for applicable widgets

Release Highlights

App developers can now export app data to third-party systems hosted on any secure network. A new component, SOTI Snap Data Link enables and automates the export of app data to Microsoft SQL and Email servers that are not exposed to the Internet for security reasons.

Publish Apps in Test/Production Environments

App developers can create up to five independent environments to deploy apps. App versions can be published for test or production into any available environment. Device users can access apps in each environment using the SOTI Snap Agent. Separate reports can be generated for apps within each environment.

Custom Blocks

Custom Blocks offers unparalled flexibility for SOTI Snap app developers to easily save and reuse logic blocks they have created, within the same app or across multiple apps. Advanced users can define completely new blocks by writing their own JavaScript or by incorporating third-party JavaScript code into their projects. Blocks can also be organized into libraries using multiple categories so that users can easily locate the ones they want to use.

General Improvements

SOTI Snap has made major enhancements to widgets and the SOTI Snap Agent:

  • The Textbox widget can be used to scan a barcode and trigger a sequence of predefined actions.
  • The External Data widget supports searching records by typing keywords corresponding to multiple columns in the data sheet.
  • Data in an app can be updated from a OneDrive Sheet or Google Sheet without re-publishing the app. This version of SOTI Snap provides manual data source synchronization. Future versions will enable you to set a schedule for automatic synchronization.
  • The Geocode Location widget allows a user to display address, area, city, state, country, postal code or country code (in addition to longitude and latitude) in the app.
  • For Radio Button and Checkbox widgets, app developers can choose to size the widget by either auto-wrapping according to the device screen resolution or by spreading across multiple columns.
  • The name and enrollment ID of devices enrolled on SOTI Snap can be accessed via two new APIs.
  • App developers can track edits in any record by viewing edit logs (with “Modified On” and “Modified By” metadata).
  • “Shareable URLs” are now “Shareable tokens” that can be generated for an app and shared with other tenant users for importing apps.
  • Device users can choose to submit a partially completed record and then update an app version to avoid any data loss.
  • SOTI Snap fully supports landscape orientation on Android devices.
  • Device users can send a debug report from within any app, even if they do not have access to the SOTI Snap Agent.
  • A new block was added to the Dates category that outputs the number of days between two dates. In addition, the “Add Days” block correctly returns a date.
  • The “Comparison” block in the Logic category supports string comparisons.
