Webjets - Release Notes 1.0.10

The main improvement is about the sharing feature. Now, users you share some content with don't need to be registered on Webjets anymore.

Those users receive an email with some invitation to sign up. As soon such user has signed-up, the shared content can be found in its inbox on the right-top.

Login at app.webjets.io and give it a try. Happy sharing :-)

Other improvements

Catalan language options in Wikipedia

Issues with locking for shared content

Sidebar resizer is not always available

Error when removing item from mind-map

Pinch zoom doesn't update zoom controls in toolbar

Webjets - Release Notes 1.0.8

In the last release we featured a few User Experience changes, which are summarized in this article.

Zoom Buttons in Toolbar

For convenience now it’s possible to access the Zoom Controls at the bottom right on your toolbar.

Open URLs with one click

To quickly open the origin of a Link Card click the chain icon in the header. This also works for collapsed cards.

Show and hide images for links

Now it’s possible to show/hide preview images for links. Once you are hiding an image for a link, this option will be used as default for all future copy+paste operations. As soon you enable images again, they will also be displayed for all following actions.

Webjets API

The Webjets API is providing WebHooks to push content to your inbox in an automated way. This can by utilized by our own apps or existing 3rd party services like Zapier or IFTTT.

Just send a POST request to your WebHook URL. This URL can be found under your Profile > Settings.

Following fields are allowed in the request body:

title - the title of the card (optional)

content - the body text of the card

data - anything in that field is automagically transformed to the best matching card. For example if some content starts with “http://...” it is transformed into a Link Card, in case of a YouTube URL it becomes a interactive YouTube Card and so on.

Note that content and data are replacing each other. Don’t us both of them. This example creates a Note Card:

{   title: “Hello”,   content: “World” }

Following tutorial outline how you can automate Webjets using 3rd party services:

Pushing content into Webjets using IFTTT and WebHooks
