Integrations

Asana

Connect Asana to find tasks, review projects, update due dates, and mark work complete from OpenTag. You can also work with subtasks, comments, goals, and portfolios. Choose read-only access to look things up or allow changes through the connection's permissions.

Fixes

More reliable visual reading of web pages

Fixed browser tasks failing when a page capture was too large to pass to visual analysis, even though the image itself was within the supported size. OpenTag can now inspect those captures and continue the task. If an image exceeds the limit, the error gives it a way to try a smaller capture.

Improvements

Start business app connections with Team access

New connections for business apps including Notion, AWS, Xero, and Google Search Console now start with Team access selected, making it easier to share them with your workspace. You can still choose Private before connecting. Existing connections keep their saved access settings.

Fixes

Save separate files while other tasks are running

Fixed tasks ending with a save conflict when another request had changed a different workspace file. OpenTag can now save both sets of changes when they do not overlap. If there is a real conflict, the explanation makes clear that files already delivered and actions already completed are unaffected.

Improvements

Recognize the same person across Slack, Linear, and GitHub

OpenTag can now connect a person's Slack, Linear, and GitHub profiles when their account details clearly match, helping you follow their work across apps. If two profiles belong together or have been matched incorrectly, tell OpenTag to link or separate them. Your correction carries through to later questions.

Fixes

Clean up Gmail drafts without touching sent mail

Fixed draft cleanup that could mistake sent mail for a draft or report a removal that had not completed. OpenTag now checks that a draft was created by OpenTag and still matches its last confirmed version before moving it to Trash. Sent messages and drafts you have since edited stay untouched, and removal is confirmed only after Gmail shows it in Trash.

Fixes

Read larger groups of Gmail messages reliably

Fixed requests to read more than ten specific Gmail messages failing before any messages were opened. OpenTag now reads larger groups in smaller batches, keeps the messages it could read, and identifies missing or failed messages instead of losing the whole result when one fails.

Integrations

Higgsfield

Connect Higgsfield to create and edit images and videos, review existing media, and check generation progress from OpenTag. You can also send video files from Slack directly to your connected Higgsfield account. Generation and editing use that account's Higgsfield credits.

Integrations

Instagram

Connect an Instagram Business or Creator account to read posts and insights, manage comments, and publish content from OpenTag. Connect multiple accounts with profile names that help you tell them apart, and send a video from Slack to prepare a Reel on the account you choose.

Fixes

Let long answers finish while they are still progressing

Fixed long answers being stopped by a fixed time limit even while the model was still producing them. OpenTag now allows a progressing response to continue, while still stopping stalled responses and honoring cancellation.

Fixes

Request an image or video model by name

Fixed requests such as “use Seedance 2.0” being rejected as an unavailable chat model. OpenTag now recognizes the image and video models available for generation and can use your chosen model for a single request without changing your workspace's defaults.

Fixes

Keep event and reminder times separate when rescheduling

Fixed routine edits confusing an event's start time with the time you wanted a reminder. OpenTag now checks and saves the two times separately, including their time zone, and verifies the saved result before confirming the change. Changing one time preserves the other, and a reminder must come before its event.

Fixes

Use Slack channel IDs when setting up routines

Fixed routine setup failing to recognize a Slack channel ID with a leading #. OpenTag now resolves that exact channel, including private channels both you and OpenTag can access, and keeps the same destination for scheduled delivery.

Improvements

Edit routine names, schedules, and time zones

Routine owners and editors can now rename a routine and change its schedule from its detail page in the web app. Choose a time and time zone, set a repeating interval or one-time run, or use an advanced schedule. Renaming keeps the existing schedule, and editing a paused routine keeps it paused.

Improvements

Create channel routines without signing in on the web

Full members of a connected Slack workspace can now ask OpenTag to create a channel routine on their first conversation with it, without first signing in to the web app or sharing an email address. The routine uses that member's existing workspace permissions.

Fixes

Use the updated opening message in Slack follow-ups

Fixed follow-up answers using stale text after OpenTag edited a thread's opening message. Once Slack confirms the edit, later replies use the updated text in both channels and DMs.

Improvements

See what OpenTag is doing and what needs you in Slack

Slack requests now show the current step while OpenTag works, followed by an expandable list of steps and sources above the answer. Completed actions have clear confirmation lines, and warnings explain missing results or skipped accounts. A “Your turn” prompt makes it easier to spot when you need to reply, approve, or reconnect an app.

Improvements

Pick up unfinished workspace setup

If a teammate starts OpenTag setup and leaves it unfinished, another verified full Slack member can now continue as an OpenTag admin. Saved channel choices and shared app connections carry over, so the team can finish setup without waiting for the original installer. The original owner keeps ownership.
