    Hi @Josh Boston‚ - one quick question: right now, Group (or Subgroup) Business Leader is just a metadata field for now. There is no special access or permissions given to the person right?

    Hi @Anthony Imgrund‚ yes you are correct. Right now the Business Leader on groups does not have special access or permissions on the group they are added. Here is more information on the Business Leader capability on groups including a demo video.

      That's what I thought. One of my group admins interrupted the release notes like they were a group admin as well so just wanted to confirm. HAHAHA!

      Thank you! :)

      Question about the predecessor email notifications. It seems they changed during the release and now don't show the project name they're referencing. Is this something that will be changed?

        The project name should be under the parent section.

        The format of the "New Work Request" notifications is not good. They are difficult to use and decipher the information. The avatars are not displaying, even after manually clicking on "Download pictures" in the email.

        We are using Outlook.

          We had issue with the template too and was wondering if we could revert back to the old template or customize it ourselves. UI is not great. The assignees are telling me the information is not useful for them. Please advise when the fix will be done. Thanks!

            Thanks for following up, @Patrick Muir - inactive‚.

            As seen in my original post above (I'll copy here, too) the new format is very spread out, the avatars don't show, and for us the main thing we want to see on a new request email is the name of the request, and the team that is assigned to it. We have to scroll down to see the team.

            On the old format, it was very concise with pertinent information showing with no scrolling needed.

            New format work request:

            Old format work request:
