# Release Notes: 2026 Sprint 9

This sprint, the MyAlice engineering team shipped 14 features and improvements alongside 21 bug fixes — headlined by the brand-new Email AI Agent, richer AI responses across Livechat and the Community Agent, and a broad wave of reliability fixes across Inbox, Reports, and Billing.

***

### 🚀 Features and Innovations

**Raven (AI Agent)**

* **Email AI Agent** — Introduced a dedicated AI agent built for email support. You can now create an Email-specific agent with its own title and subtitle, assign it to your email channel, and let it handle email conversations with full thread context — complete with a response trace in the Inbox so you can see how each reply was generated.
* **Route tickets to the Unassigned queue** — The AI agent can now place a ticket into the Unassigned queue for an agent to pick up manually — ideal for teams that don't use automatic assignment.
* **Community Agent comment replies** — A new public-reply tool lets the Community Agent respond directly to feed comments, with improved context handling and formatting.
* **Richer Livechat AI responses** — The AI agent can now reply in Livechat with multiple formats — text, images, buttons, galleries, and carousels — for more engaging conversations.
* **Longer agent instructions** — The system instructions limit has been raised to 20,000 characters, giving you far more room to configure detailed agent behavior.
* **More accurate AI answers** — Improved knowledge-base retrieval and smarter fallback handling mean the AI agent returns more relevant answers and fewer fallback responses.
* **Date and time on AI Agent Management** — The "Updated At" column now shows both date and time in your local timezone, so you can see exactly when an agent was last changed.

**Inbox**

* **Office 365 email history** — Connecting an Office 365 mailbox now loads the last 30 days of email, so past conversations are available right away.

**Reports**

* **Region-aware revenue tracking** — Revenue metrics now factor in the country code from ecommerce webhooks for more accurate regional reporting.
* **Clearer CSAT exports** — CSAT Detailed Overview exports now include a numeric rating column (1–5) in place of emoji and language-specific labels, making exported data easier to read and analyze.

**Integrations**

* **Smarter GIF handling for Marketing Messages Lite** — GIF headers are now handled correctly for Marketing Messages Lite accounts, with a clear upgrade prompt shown where GIFs aren't available.

**Broadcast**

* **Excel file uploads** — You can now upload broadcast audiences as Excel (.xlsx) files in addition to CSV, with Arabic character support and the same column-mapping experience.

**Settings**

* **Cancel pending invitations** — Admins can now cancel pending user invitations in User Management and reclaim seats when an invite hasn't been accepted.

**Onboarding**

* **Simpler invitation sign-up** — Users joining through an invitation link no longer need to provide a business URL to register.

### 🐛 Bug Fixes

**Inbox**

* Resolved a recurring issue where agents were blocked from replying within the WhatsApp 24-hour service window and were incorrectly forced to send a template.
* Fixed the integrated email address automatically appearing in the CC field, which previously had to be removed manually before replying.
* Fixed multiple "To" recipients not showing in the Conversation Detail overlay.
* Fixed customer-sent images and shared reels not appearing in some conversations.
* Fixed a customer's name displaying incorrectly when they replied with an image in Feed conversations.
* Fixed Facebook comments containing only stickers or GIFs not landing in the Inbox — they now appear correctly as image attachments.
* Fixed the Email AI agent sending duplicate responses to the same customer query.

**Raven (AI Agent)**

* Fixed a Delete button appearing in the agent history table when no agent was selected.
* Fixed the AI agent's memory returning more stored facts than intended.
* Fixed an issue that prevented certain agents from being deleted.
* Fixed a sudden product-sync failure for the ecommerce AI agent, restoring both automatic and manual sync.

**Broadcast**

* Fixed an attribute-mapping error where a contact's full name was mislabeled, causing broadcasts to fail.

**Datalab**

* Fixed an error that occurred when editing a Datalab entry.

**Settings & Billing**

* Fixed the "Manage Payment Methods" button not redirecting correctly from the Auto Top-up screen.
* Fixed Auto Top-up and Add Credit buttons remaining enabled when no payment method was attached — they are now disabled with helpful tooltips.
* Fixed an error when sending invitations from User Management.
* Fixed Salla billing details not syncing through to enable automatic project activation for Salla-paid customers.

**Reports**

* Fixed Agent Metrics not matching the Automation Metrics ticket export for the same date range.
* Fixed Engagement Metrics filters resetting unexpectedly and the Agent Engagement table showing cached data.
* Fixed the three Performance Metrics cards not displaying data in Agent Metrics.

**Integrations**

* Fixed the mobile app attachment viewer showing a white screen on Android and a shrunken preview on iOS.
