Covers changes merged from 16 October 2026 at 12:00 am to 23 October 2026 at 8:16 am (Australia/Sydney).

Part of the [week of 19 October 2026](https://support.pynhq.com/changelog/week-of-2026-10-19/): Duplicate a step within its flow.

## New

- You can start an automation when an employee is connected to Slack after the initial sync.
- Admins with Okta enabled can copy the sign-in link from the integration panel to configure their Okta dashboard tile.
- You can duplicate a step within a flow, including its content, recipients, schedule, reminders and escalations.
- Admins can set a company name in Settings for message personalization, with the workspace name used when no company name is set.
- You can select HR business partner names and email addresses from the personalization picker in email and Slack editors.
- You can refresh a Google Workspace sender's profile name and email address from its menu without reconnecting.
- Admins with the Okta integration enabled can connect through a single dialog, replace credentials and copy the redirect address from the integration panel.

## Improvements

- You can configure a flow's trigger directly from its No Trigger tab.
- Before archiving an email, Google Workspace or Slack sender, you now see a warning listing the active automation steps that use it.
- You can preview a message for an upcoming joiner as well as a current employee.
- The preview employee selector now reads “Preview for principal” to distinguish the employee the step is about from its recipient.

## Fixes

- Change of Manager automations now enroll the employee whose manager changed.
- Change of Location automations now run when an employee's country changes, and their trigger panel opens correctly.
- Relationship-based automation triggers now respect their configured filters.
- Archived campaign messages now disappear from the calendar and its sidebar list.
- Multi-select fields now open when you click their empty space, while selected items remain removable.
- Conditional-section fields now use consistent widths and readable placeholder text.
- Step previews now load the saved message without being incorrectly blocked, and campaign HTML previews find the correct step.
- When a step targets an employee's manager, buddy or HR business partner, previews now use that person's details when the relationship can be resolved.
- Personalized previews now hide conditional sections that do not match the selected employee and resolved recipient.
- Conditional-section dialogs stay open while you edit them, and updating or removing a section targets the section you opened.
- Typing after a personalization placeholder or link in a conditional section no longer jumps to the start of the paragraph.
- Link buttons in the editor now expand to fit longer labels, shortening them only when the available space is too narrow.
- Discarding unpublished flow changes no longer makes an automated or manual flow appear inactive.
- Messages to custom email recipients now fill in name and email personalization from that recipient's details.
