A step can now be copied within its flow. The copy keeps the step's content, recipients, schedule, reminders and escalations, ready to adjust for the next message in the sequence.

## Okta in one dialog

Admins connect Okta through a single dialog, and can replace its credentials and copy the redirect address from the integration panel. The panel also has the sign-in link for an Okta dashboard tile, so employees can open Pyn straight from Okta. [Connect Okta](https://support.pynhq.com/integrations/sso/connect-okta/)

## Previews that match who receives the step

You can preview a message for an upcoming joiner as well as a current employee. When a step goes to the employee's manager, buddy or HR business partner, the preview uses that person's details and hides the conditional sections that do not apply to them.

## Also new

- Start an automation when an employee is connected to Slack.
- Set a company name in **Settings** for messages; without one, Pyn uses the workspace name.
- Pick HR business partner names and email addresses from the personalisation picker in email and Slack editors.
- Refresh a Google Workspace sender's name and email address from its menu, without reconnecting.

**Fixes and improvements (18)**

- 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.
- 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.
