Insight Cloud
Release v.0.26.4 - May 6, 2025
Enhancements

- App Store Owned Access Routes a User to their App: We enhanced the App Store browsing experience so that a user who has access to an App they click on while viewing the App Store Homepage will be routed to their org's owned instance of that app (rather than previously a filtered My Apps experience).

This ensures you always have a clear view of your data’s freshness, no matter which app you’re using.
- Improved Date Filtering in the Document Center: We’ve resolved an issue in the Document Center where documents matching the end date of a selected content date range were mistakenly omitted from search results.
