June '22 Release

Users can now view the unique ID for each review within the Review Monitoring and Response tabs. Review IDs were previously available via API and manual export, but are now visible directly in the platform as well.

Review ID is now an optional column in the Review Monitoring and Response table views. Additionally, users can now filter on the Review ID field.

For improved Knowledge Graph alignment with our publisher network, the ‘Featured Message’ field has been moved out of the Core Information section of all location-like Entity Types. This field will remain available for these Entity Types, but instead be placed in the Business Details section, where it’s better aligned with how users manage Listings entities.

Please note that this only affects default entity presentations. Once a presentation has been customized for an entity type, it no longer inherits from the Yext default presentation, and thus will remain as is.

We have enabled the built-in Photo Gallery field for the ATM Entity type to help users more easily build a comprehensive Entity Profile for these locations. Have any feedback or questions? Leave us a note in the Community here.

When creating custom dashboards or reports in the Analytics platform, users can now add search duration as a filter or dimension. This will enable users to analyze traffic based on user time spent active in Yext search experiences.

In order to help users troubleshoot Crawler errors more efficiently, Yext has added improved error messaging in the Crawler. When an error occurs during a Crawler run, the Status Details column for each crawled page will now display the error message received as well as a suggested next step. This will make it even easier for users to understand why a crawl might have failed and how they can proceed using the Crawler.

For connectors that receive a JSON response from the data source (such as for Pull and Push Connectors), users must extract content using JMES Path. The selector now has autocomplete functionality, such that a user can start typing and the selector will offer “Typeahead” functionality based on the JSON response. This makes specifying selectors an easier process, especially for those less familiar with JMES Path.
