See Amy McAlpine and Sophie Grogan from the Surpass team explain the new features and updates coming to the Surpass Platform in the 25.4 release.
Key features
Test Development
- Export Item Lists/Item Search: With the appropriate permissions, you can now export item content, attributes, and tags from Item Search and Item Lists to a CSV file. This gives greater flexibility and efficiency in how item data is used and shared outside of the Surpass Platform.
Media Libary
- The Media Library has been completely redesigned for a cleaner, more intuitive experience.
- You can now view detailed information about selected media, including file size and dimensions, helping you manage assets more effectively.
- Improved search and filter options make it quicker to locate the right media.
- Media now appear with thumbnails when authoring items, so you can easily identify the correct files.
- With the advanced media library licence, you can also add optional keywords to media for better searchability and visibility of items linked to those files (paid feature).
Task Management
- Greater control over task reviews: A new setting allows lead assignees to review submissions before they are finalised. This gives you more oversight and ensures quality before updates are applied to your subject.
