Feature Updates
Wrike Approvals: Any/All (AND/OR) Support Now Available 🚀
You can now choose whether an approval requires sign-off from all designated approvers or just any single approver, giving your team greater flexibility and preventing approval bottlenecks.
What’s new?
- Flexible approval types: When creating an approval, select between All approvers required (default) or Any approver required.
- Supported locations: Set approval rules within Work Item view, Request Forms, and Workflows.
- Editable settings: Change the approval type on existing active approvals at any time.
- Mobile & status support: Mobile apps respect the new logic and close approvals as soon as one decision is rendered. Remaining approvers receive a new "No Longer Required" status once an approval condition is met.

- Whiteboards: Native Direct Sharing and Access Improvements 🗒️
We're excited to launch native direct sharing for Whiteboards! Collaborating on whiteboards is now smoother, faster, and easier to track directly within Wrike.
What’s new?
- Native Share button: Invite teammates directly from the Wrike interface without using Klaxoon UI or manually copying links into external chat tools.
- Instant notifications: Invited users receive direct Wrike Inbox notifications (and emails based on preferences) including any custom description provided by the sender.
- Location-independent whiteboards: Whiteboards no longer require a mandatory location in Wrike. You can create standalone boards or unlink existing ones; owners and invited collaborators retain direct access regardless of folder or task access.
- Audit log tracking: Account admins gain full visibility with all whiteboard sharing invitations logged in the Audit Log.
Note: For restricted whiteboards, hover over the Share button tooltip to adjust sharing settings. For public boards, the UI provides a direct link to copy for external participants
