TL;DR: You can now archive or draft Custom Item Types without losing data, keeping work items editable while hiding unused CITs from creation menus and reactivating them anytime. The new Table widget in Dashboards is now GA, adding multi-level grouping, hierarchies, new filters, editable templates, and cleaner visuals. A new AI Agents Library space in the Community showcases ready-made agents and lets you share your own. The team is gathering input on upcoming governance features like required fields and status restrictions, as well as improvements to reminders and recurring work. Finally, there are new resources on Wrike AI, including an overview/FAQ and a practical guide to writing effective prompts for AI Agents.
Feature Updates
You can now archive or draft unnecessary custom item types without losing any data.
What's new?
- Use the status property to turn a CIT on or off, and use the state to archive it or mark the configuration as draft. Admins continue to see and manage this CIT in their admin lists.
- Keep all existing data when deactivating a CIT. Items already created from a CIT stay in place and editable, while the deactivated CIT no longer appears in menus for creating new items. A visual note shows who deactivated it and when.
- Reactivate a CIT at any time to restore the configuration and bring it back to all places of use.
