Выделено
TL;DR: Wrike Community is moving to a new platform with exciting features; admins can now deactivate unused workflows; Wrike Whiteboard gets a refreshed UI; Wrike API adds an async Batch API and extended bulk updates; we’re inviting feedback on installing templates into existing spaces and 2025 admin updates; and we’re also recognizing our December Community contributors.
Feature Updates
- Configuration Governance: Declutter Unused Workflows 🧹
We’re thrilled to introduce the ability to activate or deactivate workflows to help admins declutter unused or draft workflows.
What’s new?
- Use the status property to turn workflows on or off; deactivated workflows are hidden from workspace pickers but remain editable by admins.
- Existing workflow assignments remain on items but cannot be reassigned until reactivated.
- Visual notes indicate who deactivated a workflow and when.
- Helpful prompts and usage stats assist in identifying unused workflows for deactivation.

- Wrike Whiteboard: Refreshed User Interface ✨
We’re excited to introduce a refreshed Wrike Whiteboard experience with a modernized and intuitive UI.
What’s new?
- Simplified navigation with two modes: Hand (navigate) and Arrow (select).
- Improved selection allowing clicks inside empty shapes and immediate selection on rectangle touch.
- Redesigned toolbar with a dedicated sticky notes button and grouped collaboration/presentation tools.
- All settings consolidated into a single menu.
- Updated and modernized look and feel for clarity and ease of use.

- Wrike API: New Async Batch API And Extended Bulk Updates 🛠️
We’re excited to announce a major upgrade to the Wrike API with a new asynchronous Batch API and expanded bulk update capabilities.
What’s new?
-
Extended Bulk Update APIs
Bulk update now supports more fields for large-scale updates without per-item loops: - Tasks: addParents / removeParents, addResponsibles / removeResponsibles, addResponsiblePlaceholders /removeResponsiblePlaceholders, customStatus (plus existing custom fields & effort).
- Folders/Projects: ownersAdd / ownersRemove, status, customStatusId, startDate / endDate, contractType, budget(plus existing custom fields & CIT conversion).
-
New Async Batch API
For high-throughput bulk operations: - Up to 100 operations per request (tasks + folders/projects in one batch).
- Each batch = 1 API call, easing rate limits.
- Async execution with progress tracking via async_job API.
- Quota-based safeguards (1,000 ops/account by default, expandable).
- Ideal for large imports, migrations, and automation-heavy scenarios.
Please Note:
- It is fully backward compatible
- No changes required for existing integrations unless scale or performance is a concern
