We’re thrilled to introduce Novu Dashboard 2.0, the ultimate upgrade to your notification management experience! Packed with powerful features and a sleek new design, this release empowers both technical and non-technical teams to build, manage, and customize workflows with unparalleled ease.

Here's what’s new

Cloud Workflow Editor

The cloud no-code visual workflow editor is back—redesigned, reimagined, and powered by a hosted Framework SDK.

Create workflows in minutes without writing a single line of code. For advanced use cases, seamlessly switch to code and sync workflows directly into your account. Simple or custom, the choice is yours.

• Effortless and intuitive: Build workflows directly in your dashboard with a powerful visual editor.

• Code-free by default: Design and customize workflows without ever opening a text editor.

• Unmatched flexibility: When you need full control, eject to code and leverage the full power of Novu’s framework.

New Visual Email Editor

Creating emails is easy now. When you add an email step to your workflow and configure the email template, you’ll gain access to a WYSIWYG email block editor—designed to feel as intuitive as Notion’s page interactions.

With pre-designed components, you can build stunning, high-performing emails in minutes. Personalization? No problem. Seamlessly integrate dynamic variables to deliver a tailored experience for every user.

We have partnered with maily.to to create the best possible email crafting experience powered by react.email. In upcoming releases, we are doubling down on our react email integration and will allow to customize the experience with your own components.

Improved Activity Feed

We have redesigned the activity feed to make it easier to view and debug your workflows right from the new dashboard UI. In a more condensed view, highlighting what's important.

In-App notification testing

Test in-app notifications directly from the UI dashboard.

When you add an in-app step to your workflow, you can easily trigger the workflow and view the notification in your Novu UI dashboard inbox. This makes it simple to test, refine, and iterate quickly on the design, content, and overall experience of your in-app communication channel.

With Novu Dashboard 2.0, users across different roles gain value:

• Developers: Get started quickly for simpler use cases without writing code. For complex integrations, seamlessly transition to code when needed using the Novu Framework SDK.

• Product Teams: Operate independently with intuitive tools while keeping workflows safeguarded against critical errors.

• Everyone: Enjoy the ease of a unified, 100% cloud-based platform that eliminates the need for locally running engines or bridges.

Migration from V1 to V2

At this time, automatic migration isn’t available. However, you can create new workflows in V2 while using your existing V1 workflows alongside them.
