Release Notes, April 2026

April 1, 2026

By using Trellis tools, Transfer Student Support Services (TSSS) staff will have a new system for tracking and reporting check-ins at their location
As a Staff member of Campus Pantry and/or Campus Closet, you will no longer see the middle page of the trellis check-in flow

Self-service contact imports on Campaigns are improved as follows:
- An improved deduplication strategy is used to prevent duplicate contacts from being created.
- Duplicate and invalid rows are skipped rather than failing the entire import, and the completion email now includes row numbers and contact details for any skipped rows. Upload-to-import times should be significantly faster upload-to-import times.
- Rows containing potentially dangerous special characters are now rejected with a clear explanation.
- The Full-Service import description and data formatting warning have been updated to set clearer expectations around file requirements and data integrity

Blackthorn Events is updated, including allowing an authenticated user in CatCloud to be redirected to their AttendeeLink when they register for an Event. Previously, the registered Attendee was returned to the registration page, causing confusion

Salesforce transactional email templates are updated to be more secure and accessible

Event Blackthorn check-in app only users can used for events by volunteer or staff who only need to perform event check-ins. Check-in app authentication is done by the fully provisioned user when setting up the app prior to providing the device to the volunteer.
Academic Support Event Users have an additional type of “Academic” for the Academic Support field.

Store owners can now configure Terms & Conditions for their storefront purchases
Storefront Orders can be updated to have a status of Cancelled.
Updating the Order Status to Cancelled will automatically update any related Booking Attendee records to also have a Cancelled status.
Booking Attendees can also be updated individually to have a status of Cancelled.
Users are able to manually send emails from both the Order and Booking Attendee records as needed to communicate the cancellation.
Storefront users can now edit a Brightspace course number on non-credit course products and identify learners to be automatically registered in that Brightspace Community course site.
For the Storefront feature, products without a defined start date have the start date hidden during add to cart, and the date/location picker is hidden for products in the store.
For Storefront, booking attendees are now created for every order processed through the storefront website, if the purchaser has not created booking attendees themselves. For single product quantity, the default booking attendee is the contact who created the order. For order product quantities greater than 1, all default booking attendees are blank. The styling of the Update Attendees link in order confirmation emails is updated to be more prominent.

Renamed the "Primary Program" field on Contact to "Primary College" with a new API name (Primary_College__c)

Graduate students can now see their assigned Graduate Coordinator, Graduate Degree Auditor, and Director of Graduate Studies in CatCloud
Migrate to new mealplan API’s
As a Student using Catcloud I no longer see the New User Catcloud tour or see the button to start the tour again.

Early Progress Report feedback types are updated for faculty to use from Trellis Progress in Brightspace.

Additional Facility Type and Placements values are now available on Business Organization accounts for the management of clinical partners.

The form named, Trellis Discovery Request From replaces the Trellis Demo Request Form
