May Update
- Use a custom slug when creating a URL for any web-published experience. The “slug” is the part of a URL that comes after the domain. For Intuiface, the domain is “web.intuiface.com”, so your experience URL would look like “https://web.intuiface.com/[slug]”
- We’ve also given you the ability to:
- assign a favicon when creating a URL. The favicon is the small icon you see on the left-hand side of a webpage’s browser tab
- assign a page title. This title appears on the browser tab and in search engine results.
7.0.23
15-May-2023
Enhancements:
Fixes:
- Airtable users were having trouble downloading data. Not any more!
- Fixed a problem that prevented experience deployment if the targeted Player wasn’t running. What should (and now) happen is the deployment job simply waits until Player comes online.
- Corrected some data loading problems related to the Headless CMS
- Composer’s Play Mode for Player Next Gen was playing the previously run experience, not the one currently loaded in the editor, because it was paying attention to the “Play last experience” setting for Player on the same device. We’ve stopped this craziness.
- Data feeds inside data feeds - hats off to you, power users - weren’t being loaded. Until now!
- Web-published experiences with Player Licensing were getting stuck with the loading indicator after the Retention Duration expired. This wasn’t helpful so we’ve corrected it.
7.0.22
11-Apr-2023
Features:
- Added support for the Map Asset.
- Re-designed error messages for experiences running on the web.
Fixes:

March Update
- All users of Player Next Gen can now deploy experiences as a Progressive Web App.
- We've introduced a new Player Licensing option for experiences deployed to the web; the same mechanism used for licensing experiences deployed as Progressive Web Apps.
With Player Licensing, web and PWA deployments can be run offline for a predetermined duration. These licenses are automatically retrieved and released automatically, so you don't have to worry about license activation.
(Player Licensing complements the existing licensing approach exclusive to web deployments, Views Licensing. PWA deployments only support Player Licensing.)
