  5. NewThe Case File · Documents

    New service task ExtractCaseFileData: it applies conditional logic to a document's text without loading the plain text into the workflow – ideal for pulling data straight from CSV or JSON documents.

  6. NewThe Case File · Participants

    New case-specific "Aktenzeichen" (file number) field on the participant – for example the court's file number. When sending via beA it goes automatically into the "Aktenzeichen Empfänger" (recipient's file number) field; in workflows it is available as _caseIdReceiver.
