Hello Workplace Community,
Let’s take a look at the new features and enhancements that went live across all Workplace applications this July.

Conference support in Calendar eWidget
When creating an event through Calendar eWidget, you can now select from multiple conferencing options, including Zoho Meeting (audio/video), Zoom, Webex, and Microsoft Teams.
When you create an event using the 'Add to Calendar' option in the email preview, any attachments included in the email will now be automatically added to the event in Calendar eWidget.

Zoho Connect
Our search just got a lot more advanced. With our new Natural Language Processing (NLP) search, you can type queries like you talk. For example, you can simply search “tasks assigned to me last week” or “files shared by John” and get precise results instantly.
For newbies in Connect, you can now add pre-filled sample data to help you get familiar with the platform. Explore tasks, forums, groups, feeds, manuals, town halls, and events, and learn how things work. It’s the fastest way to learn by doing.
Sharing your task has become more flexible than ever. With the new share task section option in Boards, you can collaborate with precision. Whether it’s a checklist, a set of tasks, or simply a discussion section, share only what’s needed with the right people. This is perfect for cross-functional teams and external collaborators.

Zoho Projects : Task should auto-update to 'In Progress' if timer started
Namaskaram. Right now, if a Task's timer is started, the Task stays in 'Not Started' status. One has to manually update it to 'In Progress'. From a #uxdesign standpoint, it is an unnecessarily two step process to start working on a task. It would be better that, if I start the timer on a task, it should automatically change to 'In Progress' status.
