Description

The public preview of Logic Apps allows you to create business processes in the cloud without writing code. In this update, we present the following features:
  • Added Cancel to running Logic Apps. This can be useful if a workflow gets stuck and you want to stop it and retry it from the beginning.
  • Added new string and number functions so you can:
    • Take a substring
    • Replace certain characters in a string
    • Generate a GUID
    • Generate a random number
  • Increased the size of individual values that you can reference inside the definition to 128 KB, and the total message size to 100 MB
  • Made boolean values appear in the designer as drop-down lists so you don’t have to type True or False
  • Added a Load more button to the Runs list, so you can see more than 250 runs at a time
  • Corrected an issue where the outputs of user-built API apps were not appearing in the Logic Apps designer
