We are here again with a series of new enhancements to Kiosk Studio, designed to elevate your experience and bring even greater efficiency to your business processes. These updates build upon our ongoing commitment to making Kiosk a powerful and intuitive tool for all your CRM needs.
What's New in Kiosk Studio?
Here’s a list of the latest enhancements:- Display GetRecords Without Selection : Now you can display GetRecords directly in a table view, eliminating the need for selection.
- GetRecords as a Component : Create GetRecord as a standalone, reusable component for more flexibility in your configurations.
- View Record details from Screen : Easily open records from a view, whether for single or multiple records for quick access.
- New Actions - Open Link & Open Record : Perform actions like opening a link or a specific record from your Kiosk screen with just a click.
- Clone Kiosk : Save time by duplicating an existing kiosk configuration with the new Clone feature.
- Reorder Buttons : You can now reorder buttons in your Kiosks for improved user navigation and customization.
- User Module Support in Get Records : GetRecords functionality is expanded to include data from the User Module.
- Logged-In User Variable : Logged-in users can be added as merge values in Kiosks for a more personalized experience and automation.
- Email field support in Email Notification Action : Email fields are now supported as recipients in email notifications, simplifying communication processes.
- Email field support in Update Field action : Email fields can now be updated in the update field action.
- Limit increase for GetRecord field display : A total of 30 fields can now be displayed in GetRecords or screen components.
- Kiosks will have only two states available at any given point of time. There will be a published state and only one draft state.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's explore each enhancement below:
Display GetRecords Without Selection
Previously Display GetRecords Without Selection
In the current setup, selecting records from the table view using GetRecords is mandatory and cannot be bypassed. However, in scenarios where users simply need to view a set of records in a table, selection may not be necessary.
Now
With the latest update, users can use GetRecords for any use case, whether for review, selection, or simply displaying information. A new "Selection Preference" option allows users to choose how they interact with records:
- Make selection mandatory: This is the default option where checkboxes are displayed, and selection is required. The default option is set as Make selection mandatory to ensure consistency with previous behavior unless changed.
- Make selection optional: In this option, checkboxes are displayed, but selection is not required and can be skipped.
- Just display records without selection: Here, only a list of records will be displayed with no selection possible.
GetRecords as a Standalone Component
Previously GetRecords as a Standalone Component
GetRecords was tightly bound to the Screens component limiting flexibility for admins. When a user doesn't want to display GetRecords on a screen or use it within an Action or Decision, they are forced to place it within one of these components to utilize its data and then using the Merge Values in the Action. Additionally, while GetRecords could be reused across multiple screens, the same Display Preferences are applied universally, restricting customization for different use cases.
Now
We’ve added GetRecords as a standalone component in the builder. This provides users a way to customize configurations for specific requirements.
Here’s what you can do:
- You can now fetch data using GetRecords as a separate component without requiring it to be part of a Screen, Decision, or Action.
- GetRecords will not have predefined Display Preferences. If a user chooses to use GetRecords in a screen, Display Preferences will be prompted for that specific use case.
- GetRecords can now be reused across multiple screens with different sets of Display Preferences. For instance, you can use the same GetRecords to display only the Last Name on one screen and the Phone Number on another, tailored to the context.
View details for Single and Multiple Records from Screen
Users can now view record details directly from the screen for both single records and multiple records separately. This enhancement enables quick access to record details without interfering with the primary Kiosk workflow. View details for Single and Multiple Records from Screen
Users will need to enable the option to view records while configuring GetRecords to view records details. By default, records will open in a new tab, ensuring the current workflow in the Kiosk remains uninterrupted.
Note: We will not provide an option to open records in the same tab, as this could disrupt the flow and usability of the Kiosk experience.
Users can click on a record to view detailed information in a new tab without affecting their current work.
Multiple Records
When multiple records are selected, users can choose to open each record for detailed exploration in separate tabs. Here, each record will appear as a link. 
Open a Link and Open a Record as new Actions
We have added two new actions to enhance navigation within the Kiosk: Open a Link and Open a Record. These actions provide access to external resources or records while maintaining the continuity of the Kiosk experience and will open in a new tab by default. Open a Link and Open a Record as new Actions
As mentioned above, you cannot open a link/record from the same tab.
- Open a Link: Enables users to navigate to an external URL.
- Open a Record: Allows users to access a record from the Kiosk directly.
Clone Kiosk
You can now clone a Kiosk's active version to duplicate existing configurations for reuse or customization. Users can clone a Kiosk to create variations for specific use cases with changes in the cloned version without affecting the original Kiosk. This eliminates the need to recreate Kiosks from scratch, saving time and effort. Clone Kiosk
Where to Access the Clone Option:
- Inside the Kiosk Builder: Directly clone a Kiosk while editing or reviewing its configuration. OR
- Kiosk List View: Quickly clone a Kiosk from the list view for faster access.
Reorder Buttons in a Kiosk
Users can now reorder buttons within a screen builder. Whether it is to prioritize frequently used actions or to provide easy navigation, this enhancement gives users better control over button arrangement and ensuring consistency across the interface.Users can easily reorder buttons directly within the Left Panel of the screen builder. The updated order will reflect immediately on the right during configuration. This ensures admins can visualize the changes in real time before finalizing the configuration.
Display screens without buttons
In this enhancement, we've also included an option to display screens without a button. Users can simply click the delete icon on the top-left of the button section to remove buttons from the screen.
User Module Support in Get Records
Previously, GetRecords did not support fetching data from the User Module, making it challenging to list and utilize users' input for decision-making.Now, it is possible to fetch and display user information directly from the User Module. This enhancement provides the ability to retrieve the user data for decision-making or to create Kiosks tailored for specific use cases.
For instance, users from the User Module can be selected to direct workflows or assign tasks and to display user data for actions such as sending notifications or updating records.
Logged In User as a Variable in Emails
Logged In User will now be available as a merge value across the email notification component within the Kiosk builder.Users can automatically include the logged-in user as a recipient for email notifications. Example: Send confirmation or action-required emails to the user initiating a process. Logged In User as a Variable in Emails
Email field support in Email Notification Action
Users can now select the email field in the email notification action from GetRecords. Imagine a support team manager manages customer inquiries through a Kiosk. Whenever a support request is submitted, he needs to notify the customer that their request is being worked upon by a support representative. Email field support in Email Notification Action
With this enhancement, he simply needs to configure the email notification action by selecting the email field from GetRecords and the customers would be notified by an email of their request's status.
Email field support in Update Field action
Now, email fields can be modified using the Update Field Action, just like other field types, reducing manual update efforts and ensuring accurate information across processes.For instance, a company’s HR teammanages new employee information using Kiosk Studio. Usually, the HR team would enter temporary email addresses during the onboarding process. However, they require updating a new employee's official email address after IT assigns it. With this enhancement, they can use the update field action to update the email address with the correct email address.
Limit increase for GetRecord field display
In this enhancement, the field display limit has been increased from 10 to 30! You can now display up to 30 fields in the GetRecords table in screens without the need for extra configurations.For instance, a sales manager uses a Kiosk workflow to review customer records before assigning follow-ups. Previously, only 10 fields could be displayed, limiting visibility into key details like contact information, purchase history, and account status.
With the new 30-field limit, the sales manager can now see all necessary details in one view without navigating through multiple screens. This improves decision-making, allowing for faster follow-ups and a better customer experience.
Kiosks will have only two states at any given point of time. There will be a published state and only one draft state.
To enhance usability and reduce complexity, moving forward, a Kiosk will have only two versions at any given time: Draft or Published. Previously, we had an active state and multiple draft versions. This versioning system has been removed to improve clarity and control. Kiosks will have only two states at any given point of time. There will be a published state and only one draft state.
There will be only two clear modes:
- Draft Mode: To work on changes before publishing.
- Published Mode: The live version that is available for users.
That's it for now!
We’re confident these features will make your Kiosk Studio experience even better and help you achieve your goals with ease. Feel free to reach out to us in the comments below if you have any questions or need assistance with these new enhancements.

I'm asking you all for any feedback as to the logic or reasoning behind drastically limiting portal users when Zoho already meters based on number of records. I'm a single-seat, Zoho One Enterprise license holder. If my portal users are going to add records, wouldn't that increase revenue for Zoho as that is how Creator is monetized? Why limit my customer portal to only THREE external users when more users would equate to more records being entered into the database?!? (See help ticket reply below.)Script Editor not an option
