New in Requirements Portal

• In order to consolidate the user interface of Requirements Portal with other elements of Altium Platform, a number of UI changes have been implemented in this release:

  • Breadcrumbs are now available at the top left of the page, under the name of the Workspace.

    

  • In the Table view of requirements, the menu of requirement actions is now available by clicking the  button in a dedicated column ().

    

  • A new Info pane has been implemented for specification sections.  The pane substitutes a separate Section info view and therefore, allows displaying and modifying specification section details without leaving the currently selected view (such as Table or Doc). When a specification section is selected in the Requirements Module, click the  button at the top right of the page to access the pane.

    

• The AI importer has been enhanced in this release.

  • The importer now recognizes the content between the document title and the first heading as a requirement.

  • The owner of imported requirements is now assigned not only based on the user's first and last name, but also the email. 

  For more information about the AI importer, refer to the Import Requirements page.

• A new Info pane has been implemented for specifications. The pane substitutes a separate Spec. info view and therefore, allows displaying and modifying specification details without leaving the currently selected view (such as Table or Doc). When a specification is selected in the Requirements Module, click the  button at the top right of the page to access the pane.

  

  For more information about specifications, refer to the Create Specifications page.

• The AI importer has been enhanced in this release:

  • The AI extractor has been improved to better handle bullet points and line breaks.

  • The title of the file being imported is no longer present in a section or subsection in the hierarchical structure of requirements.   

  For more information about the AI importer, refer to the Import Requirements page.

In this release, the process for creating and importing requirements has been updated. To perform either of these actions, navigate to the Requirements Module, click the  button, and then select either Create Requirement or Import Requirements from the menu that appears.

For more information, refer to the Creating Requirements and Import Requirements pages.

This release includes bug fixes to enhance the overall functionality and user experience.

Requirements engineering often begins with drafting of stakeholder requirements in documents like PDFs and Excel spreadsheets where data is not well structured. Extracting requirement data manually from these unstructured documents might be labor-intensive and error-prone, and in order to expedite the process of capturing requirements in Requirements Portal, you can leverage AI capabilities to import requirements from unstructured PDF, Excel, Word, and CSV files using a new AI-assisted Importer.

For more information, refer to the Import Requirements page.

In order to align the UI of Requirements Portal with other parts of the Workspace's browser-based interface, the following changes have been implemented:

• A new top bar has been introduced. From the  icon menu of the top bar, you can access Requirements Portal's Settings, the File Management view, Documentation, Help resources, and the Trash Bin.
