Updates to RelativityOne Support Groups
2024-10-24 | Security Center
Support groups created in RelativityOne will now be named after the ticket ID, with a 'time to live' tied to the ticket's status. This ensures groups are automatically deleted once the ticket is closed, preventing accidental lockbox bypass and providing customers with clear visibility into why Relativity employees need access to their instance.
Processing: Publish Documents with Field Length Warnings**
2024-10-15 | Processing
This latest enhancement allows documents with field metadata length issues to be published to RelativityOne without errors, excluding the problematic fields temporarily. This reduces friction and increases flexibility during the publish process, allowing you to get your documents into review faster.
Mass PDF Permissions**
2024-09-19 | Review
System admins can now assign document-level permissions for Mass PDF actions, including creating, deleting, downloading, and numbering PDFs. This enhancement provides greater control over who can perform specific PDF-related tasks, improving security and ensuring more precise management of document workflows.
Processing: Processing Job Insights**
2024-09-19 | Processing
Over the past few months, we’ve made several enhancements to Processing that give you clearer insights into your job statuses. The updated layout and new status fields help you understand the impact of concurrent jobs and custom priorities, making it easier to manage your projects and provide accurate status reports. The new Processing Set layout is now the default view and ensures comprehensive visibility into your Processing jobs.
Staging Boundary Updates: Data Transfer
2024-08-28 | Data Transfer
Changes to our Staging boundaries will be implemented beginning in September. With this change, you will no longer be able to write to or access data outside of the defined staging area. To better align with this initiative, we are updating some of our data transfer tools:
-
Integration Points will support direct imports and exports to the StructuredData folder.
-
Import/Export will support direct uploads of raw (unprocessed) data to the ProcessingSource folder and exports to the StructuredData folder within the Staging area.
Inline Editing
2024-08-27 | List Page
You can now easily edit fields inline directly from the document list page, eliminating the need to enter a coding layout or use a mass action to make changes. For users with permission, this intuitive editing capability introduces a new "edit mode" that bolds and highlights editable fields, reduces the chance of accidental edits, and auto-saves to ensure your desired changes are captured.
Processing: Mass Replace Errored Files
2024-08-22 | Processing
You can now replace multiple files at once that have been previously downloaded and modified outside of Relativity to remediate issues such as DRM encryption and data corruption. The new 'Mass Replace for Errored files' will now automatically perform the matching and replacement, significantly reducing the time and effort needed to replace files, from 30 minutes to just one minute per 100 files.
Streamline your redaction workflow with Façade Redactions
2024-01-23 | Redact
Marking up and producing natives just got easier with facade redactions. With this streamlined workflow, you no longer need to run a production preparation project for native documents, you can toggle markup transparency within the viewer, and you no longer need to manage redacted natives in a locked state for production.
Processing: Track Exceptions as Errors and Warnings
2024-07-23 | Processing
You can now distinguish between expected issues (encryption, file corruptions, etc.) and unexpected (environmental, Input/Output problems, etc.) so you can better target remediation efforts after a job has completed. This creates a more targeted and specific workflow on error resolution, as you will be able to see which issues should be retried and which require manual resolution.
Name Normalization Improvements
2024-07-18 | Structured Analytics
We've adjusted how Name Normalization merges entities, reducing the likelihood that separate entities are incorrectly merged. These changes include putting more emphasis on the proper names of email participants, a new workflow to allow customers to identify entities that should be merged, new logic that address "undefined" aliases, and a UI option to exclude specific emails from analysis.

Conduct Coverage Review in Review Center
2024-07-18 | Review Center
You can now easily conduct coverage review in Review Center. By simply toggling on "coverage mode" when you begin a prioritized review queue, Review Center will sort documents in alignment with coverage review workflows, serving up mid-ranked documents first so that the AI classifier can learn from those coding decisions and train as quickly as possible.
Update Required for Staging Explorer
