We have been working to improve the admin experience and have made some updates to improve data uploading process and onboarding.

The onboarding overlay has gotten a refresh! Now you can find the onboarding overlay at the top of your navigation next to your avatar. We have moved the overlay so that it would no longer overlay the page context and provide admin with a better experience when managing their organization.

Mapping data has also gotten simpler. Now when on the Mappings Page, admins will see their mapping options broken up into digestible sections for more accuracy and allowing greater focus on one step of mapping at a time. Your org chart mappings will also be easier to map as Sift has made improvements to data parsing to better sift through your data to identify manager and employee headers.

We invite you to try out these new data sync features and if you have additional ideas or things you like to see from Sift, please let us know.

The Org Chart is getting a new feature with Sift's latest release: Dotted Line Relationships. This feature allows users to represent relationships outside of their typical reports.

You can now search for and discover your organization’s Sift Pages just as you would search for people’s Profiles. You can also view a list of all your organization’s Pages, making it simpler for you to see all your office locations, resource groups, and more at a glance.

We’ve also overhauled the design of the Directory with a new table view as well as a side navigation bar to swap between Pages and Profiles.

If your organization already uses Sift Pages, you’ll need to take a few steps to make them discoverable (you’ll only need to do this once; any new Pages you create will automatically show up in Search). You can watch a short video showing you how to do this here.

We've revised the articles in our Help Center to ensure our resources are more accurate, up-to-date, and easier to understand.

We've greatly increased the performance of our data sync to ensure that your people data is updated quickly and reliably.
