Sana Learn Changelog

Accessibility updates

We made updates to platform accessibility, including descriptive page titles across all routes, improved accessibility of modals and panels, added ARIA labels to components like progress bars and buttons, and enhanced keyboard navigation and screen reader support in Teamspace, Discover, and Survey features.

Multi-select user attributes

We now have user attributes that allow multiple values for a single user. This can be used for building automations, such as smart groups, enrollment rules, and filtering in all manage user tables, as well as improved reporting in Insights for users with multiple overlapping attributes.
Reach out to your Engagement Manager to set this up.

Better category organization

Categories on your home page now automatically match the custom sort order you set in Manage > Content > Manage attributes, making it easier to design an intuitive learning experience for your users.

New content filters in Manage

We added new filters for content to filter SCORM, LinkedIn, and other content types directly in Manage > Content. Finding specific content types is now faster and more straightforward.

Featured programs on the Home page

You can now feature programs on the home page using the feature button under the dropdown menu next to each program in Manage > Programs. The number of featured blocks is limited to a maximum of four, shared between featured content, programs, and events.

Sana Live reactions

We added support for custom animations when reacting in Sana Live, making reactions more delightful. The first batch includes three emojis, with more coming soon. Performance is also improved when animating multiple reactions simultaneously.

Content attributes available for programs

Replacing "Tags", content attributes are a powerful new way to structure your content in Sana. Set expiration dates, assign content owners, add detailed notes, and create a customized organization framework that fits your unique needs. Found in Manage > Content > Manage attributes, this flexible system allows admins to create custom categories, making filtering and browsing content easy. Your existing tags automatically become categories in the new system.

Text color contrast options

To help creators make their courses more accessible, we added the option to display text colors that have sufficient contrast with the card's background.

Color contrast warning

We introduced color contrast warnings for admins when creating new card themes or changing interface colors. This helps ensure designs remain accessible and readable for everyone.

Updated Sana preset themes

We updated the learner flow to ensure accessibility compliance. All Sana preset themes now meet contrast standards, making it easier for creators to design courses that are accessible to a wider audience.

Certificate numbers

In Insights, the certificate number is now added as a dimension to issued certificates, giving you more ways to track and analyze certification data.

Versioning updates in Insights

Versioning is now enabled for questions and assessments in Insights. Admins can see the actual question and answer that users submitted, even if they've been modified since.

New Program permissions for custom access roles

We introduced two new organization permissions for more granular control of program actions. The 'programs/delete permission' allows administrators to delete administered programs, while 'programs/edit-self-enrollment' lets administrators enable or disable self-enrollment for programs. Default access levels remain unchanged; however, these permissions can be removed from custom roles if necessary.

Self-starts and assignments progress details

Numbers for both self-starts and assignment progress are displayed as tooltips on course and user detail pages.

Sequential completion in self-paced courses

To ensure learners complete cards in order, you can now toggle on the sequential completion feature in Settings for self-paced courses. This feature enforces a specific progression path in the course while allowing users to preview upcoming content. It strikes the perfect balance—admins can ensure cards are completed sequentially, and learners gain structure while maintaining the freedom to explore what's ahead.
