# July 27, 2026 Process Automation Release Notes

## Released Enhancements

### Element Picker Update

Improved the element picker experience so selecting and working with form elements is clearer and easier.

### Consolidate Submission PDF and PDF Attachments

Submission PDFs and attached PDF files can be handled together so users can generate a more complete combined document output.

A new **Append PDF file attachments** toggle is available on [submission events](/process-automation/docs/add-an-email-submission-event-to-a-form) and the [success message configuration](/process-automation/docs/customize-the-form-success-message). This allows you to combine the submission PDF with all of the attachments for the submission into one file.

### Data Viewer Shows Calendar Booking Content

The [Data Viewer tab](/process-automation/docs/data-viewer) on a form now shows [calendar booking content](/process-automation/docs/add-a-calendar-booking-event-to-a-form) so booking-related records have the right context. Three new Calendar Booking columns for **Event Title**, **Event Date Time**, and **Cancelled Reason** now display and will display event information added after the release. The Event Date Time column will automatically update if the event is rescheduled.

### Submission Date/Time in Conditional Logic

Added support for [using submission date and time in conditional logic](/process-automation/docs/conditional-logic#conditional-logic-on-submission-datetime), including comparisons against form dates or custom dates with day offsets. For example, you could set up payment events on a form to charge different amounts depending on when the user submitted the form.
