Hi there,

In-line with our recent update, we've introduced an update with the Sessions API and released 15 new endpoints for developers.

Sessions API

In the Sessions API, cron_expression is now legacy and will be replaced with interval_unit and interval_value .
​
This update also added the following fields in the Session API:

• days_of_week
• recurrence_end_type
• recurrence_end_date
• excluded_dates
• timezone

For the Timezone, we suggest selecting any of these timezones for optimal performance:
​

"UTC",
 "America/New_York",
 "America/Chicago",
 "America/Denver",
 "America/Los_Angeles",
 "Europe/London",
 "Europe/Paris",
 "Europe/Berlin",
 "Asia/Tokyo",
 "Asia/Shanghai",
 "Australia/Sydney",

New API Endpoints

The following API Endpoints are now able to be used with a Developer API key. For full documentation, please refer here: https://api.hyra.io/docs/#/ for now.

Assignments

Labels

Role Groups

That's all for today's update! We wish you all the best in updating your new and improved systems using the new API endpoints we've released.

Cheers,

Sam

Hi there!

We're excited to announce a much-requested update to Role Groups!

Starting today, you can create multi-slot roles. With this new system, you can simply assign a specific number of slots to a single role (up to 50 slots per role).

💡 Tip: We recommend creating new sessions and role groups to smoothly transition your workspace to the new system. Be sure not to delete the current session to preserve session data in your workspace.

Hi there,

We've been at work on a few updates and fixes to make Hyra even better and safer for everyone

Two-Factor Authentication

We've launched Two-Factor Authentication to make your account safer for any bad actors.

To setup your Two-Factor Authentication, head over to Preferences > Account and enable Two-Factor Authentication.

Once setup is done, when you sign into Hyra, you will need to enter a verification code generated from your authenticator app.

Passkeys

In this update, we've also launched Passkeys. This lets you sign in to Hyra securely using Face ID, Touch ID or Windows Hello instead of a password.

To use Passkey when logging in, simply type your username and Hyra will automatically request a prompt for your passkey. Once done, it will quickly direct you to your workspace!

As always, you can still use your password as a backup method when you first sign into Hyra using a new device.

Expiring Suspensions

In this update, we've updated the Logbook to allow HR members to create expiring suspensions on Hyra.

For workspaces that have Auto Ranking enabled, once the suspension expired, Hyra will automatically rank the user back to it's original rank.

Comments on Session Logs

In this update, we've launched a way for staff members to create comments on Session Logs. This can be used to provide justification if someone needs to remove a staff member from the session log.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue on the Session Calendar where if you go back a week, it will moves you back 7 days.

We’re continuously working to improve your experience, and we look forward to hearing your feedback on these updates!

Cheers,

Sam

Hi there,

We're back with another update! This time is one for groups that might not perform all of their activities within their games and require staff to clock in and out of their activities.

To enable this feature, navigate to Settings > Roles and grant your roles the 'Punch In/Out' permission.

To punch in and out, go to the Activity Page, and then select 'Punch'. The system will log the start as a new activity. Once you have finished the task or shift, select 'Punch' again and your activity session will be closed.

Manual punch items show with a different icon next to them (pictured below)

They also display with a tag underneath their banner

We hope you enjoy this feature!

Hi there!

We're excited to be launching a new place to share links and quick actions right on the home page of Hyra.

This new area is able to be quickly accessed by everyone in the workspace, and is a great place to keep resources that your team use every day.

We've got lots more enhancements on the way to Home very soon!
