Dear Customers,
In our ongoing dedication to constant enhancement and ensuring optimal performance of our solution, we're thrilled to unveil the latest round of product updates.
On top of regular new features, the June 2025 update brings in another important capability to help our customers switch over to the new M-Files Desktop: Assisted RPC to gRPC migration.
The new M-Files Desktop is the primary focus for all future features and is the recommended client moving forward. Transitioning to it requires the use of the gRPC protocol. While gRPC is enabled by default in our cloud offering, on-premises customers need to take certain steps to enable it. This new capability significantly simplifies the client transition process. Please read How to transition to the new M-Files Desktop to help assess your environment and to find instructions for configuration.
New Features and Enhancement highlights:
- New M-Files Desktop and Web: Visual Workflows. A refreshed, more visual workflow experience in the Metadata Card designed to enhance situational awareness and support more informed decision-making. Please note, that you must update both the server and the client to 25.6 or latter for this feature to work correctly. Certain API calls will not work unless both are updated. Please see this support article for more information.
- New M-Files Desktop: Global Search. The M-Files Desktop Home Screen now has the capability to search for content from all vaults the user is logged into.
- New M-Files Desktop and Web: Co-authoring improvements
- Capability to co-author existing Office Documents
