The Yandex team has released several updates to its business services. The updates impact team efficiency, including meeting and task automation, smart access rights, folders in chats, links to pages in Wiki, and an updated notification interface.

Telemost now features new default settings via API, allowing for centralized configuration of video meeting parameters. Tracker has become more functional for team coordination. On the task page, in the Actions tab, you can create a chat for discussion without leaving the service. The notification center has received an updated interface: sender avatars, names, and event types are displayed in cards, and notifications can be marked as read or unread directly within them.

The public Wiki API allows you to automate the creation and population of pages, including text, dynamic tables, columns, and rows. You can invite employees by generating a link via the Share button, available only to organization members. In the comments, users can format text, highlight important information, react to messages, and share links, and notifications about new replies are sent to email.

Forms has received an updated constructor. A panel for working with long forms has appeared, as well as the ability to copy pages and set conditions for displaying blocks depending on the answers. The public API, compatible with the Wiki and Tracker APIs, allows you to automate data collection and processing.

Messenger now supports folders for grouping up to 50 chats by topic or project. You can create up to 10 such folders via the context menu. A new widget simplifies switching between organizations and external chats.

The Calendar has added personalization tools: events can be highlighted with colors and text labels that are only visible to the user. Labels are created via the event's context menu.

Disk now allows you to restore the desired version of a file, even if it is in use, using the Save as copy function. The new Access Management role allows administrators to delegate rights configuration tasks.

Boards have become more convenient for teamwork: changes to stickers and shapes are displayed in real time without the need to refresh the page.

Storage you can trust in the background: Basis SDS 2.3 released with scheduled diagnostics and an observer role

A storage system is the only infrastructure layer where an error cannot be “rolled back”: neither a reboot nor a configuration rollback will restore lost data. That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
