As the volume of messages on your platform increases, it can quickly become difficult to get a sense of the messages sent to individual users. To address this, we've made it easy to see your contacts at a glance and be able to drill down into each contact to see a full timeline of message events. There are two ways to drill down into a contact page:

1. Click on an email address from an individual message activity log.
2. Click on the new top level 'Contacts' link to see a view of all of your contacts sorted by last message.

From here, you can view metrics and filter the given contact's activity.

New avatar block. Add user avatars to your dynamic templates and pass in an avatar URL to populate them. Effortlessly setup a fallback for those that don't have an avatar – without any code.

Two new quality of life features related to colors within Waypoint's dynamic template builder:

1. Reuse colors that you've already used within your template and associated template layout. No more hunting across templates and layouts to copy and paste hex colors!
2. If you override a color at the block level, you can now clear the override to reset back to one of your global theme colors.

From your workspace's Activity page, your team can now track high-level deliverability metrics and filter the events by status, time span, and environment (live vs test) to easily debug or find the messages you are looking for. Learn more in our docs.

Manage roles & permissions from workspace settings. Assign teammates on your workspace either an admin or user role. User roles have read-only access to settings. Learn more in our docs.

Create template layouts based on existing templates. If you already have a Waypoint template with headers and footers that you’d like to use as a base for our new template layouts. You can now simply click on 'Duplicate as layout' from the additional actions context menu on a template and then modify your new layout as needed.

New feature: Template Layouts. Template Layouts allow your team to share content blocks and styles across dynamic email templates. Effortlessly keep your template styling consistent and save your team maintenance headaches with shared header and footer content. Learn more and watch a tutorial in our docs.

Typos or simple syntax issues can easily happen when working with dynamic data on email templates. This can be frustrating if you’re unable quickly diagnose the problem. This is why we’ve added new error messages at the block level to help you get back on track quickly.

New sandbox API requests on Waypoint to test emails. Simply change the POST URL on testing environments to include a sandbox flag. API triggers with the sandbox flag will not deliver the email to the address in the 'to' field. The email message inputs and outputs will simply be stored on the your dashboard's activity logs for debugging and review. Learn more in our docs.

Dynamically set URL source on image blocks within our template builder. This is especially useful when looping through self hosted images using our recently released Loop block.

Over the last couple of weeks, we released new Loop, Columns, and Container blocks that support block nesting. As the complexity of layouts evolved, it became important to be able to traverse within groupings.

This is why we added a tiny but very helpful feature that helps you navigate within each group of blocks by clicking on breadcrumb links.
