Updated over 3 months ago

🌍 New: Demo Organization (Globally-Viewable)

  • Explore the Demo Organization
    All Swyvl users are now added as Viewers to a special, globally-viewable Organization called the Demo Organization. It’s a quick way to see Swyvl in action without needing to create your own data from scratch.

  • Preview Mode
    A banner at the top of the Builder lets you know when you’re inside the Demo Organization. You can view Projects, explore data, and even test features.

  • Edit Locally, Save Nowhere
    Viewers can make changes to Projects within the Demo Organization, but these edits are local only—they won’t be saved or shared with others.

  • Viewer-Safe Mode
    Any actions not allowed for Viewers are automatically disabled across the Demo Organization, keeping it safe for shared exploration.


🔐 Permissions & Access Improvements

  • Refactored authentication API for faster and more secure role checks.

  • Role-aware UI updates to ensure each user sees only what they can interact with.

  • Viewer users can now generate Project hyperlinks, making it easier to share what they’re seeing with others.


🎨 Branding & Misc Updates

  • Organization and Workspace icons now use their branding color for a clearer, more polished look.

  • Integration tests have been updated and fixed to improve reliability.


🐞 Known Issues

  • Mobile crash warning:
    Projects that include Site or Floor Plans larger than 4096 pixels on either axis may crash on some mobile devices. We’re working on a fix.
