Coveo Cloud V2
Use the Coveo In-Product Experience Feature Directly in the Administration Console
Earlier this year, Coveo launched the Coveo In-Product Experience (IPX), a product designed to drive self-support inside a PaaS/SaaS product. IPX is now integrated within the Coveo Cloud Administration Console.
You can now access product help and documentation without leaving Coveo. In the Administration Console, in the right-end of the header, click 
.
A drop-down will then appear, allowing you to search for content that’s relevant to your users and related to the current page.
You can now contact your Coveo sales representative to integrate IPX inside your own products.
New Result Ranking Query Pipeline Tab
Members of Coveo organizations that have gone through the query pipeline migration process can now access the Result Ranking tab of a query pipeline configuration.
From this tab, you can conveniently configure both query ranking expression and featured result query pipeline rules.
This feature will be eventually automatically enabled for all organizations. If you would like to try it out, contact your sales representative.

Critical Update: Improve Performance Robustness for Case Deflection and Insight Panels
A new critical update is available.
This update introduces a new query parameter, lqPartialMatchMaxKeywords, whose default value is 100.
This parameter defines the maximum number of large query expression (lq) keywords that will be included in the partial match expression that gets generated when the Intelligent Term Detection (ITD) feature can’t refine lq.
Effectively, this will improve performance robustness for case deflection and insight panels.

Take Advantage of the New Crawling Module
A new version of the Coveo On-Premises Crawling Module has been released. This entirely refactored version, which doesn’t require Docker, is meant to replace the Crawling Module working with Docker by December 31, 2020.
The new Crawling Module installation and initial configuration are now done through a wizard, which makes the whole process easier and more convenient. Since no Docker expertise is required, almost anyone can install the Crawling Module.
Moreover, the absence of Docker also makes the Crawling Module significantly lighter and easier to troubleshoot should any issue arise.
Coveo recommends you switch to new version of the Crawling Module as soon as possible, as it will no longer provide updates and support for the old Crawling Module after December 31, 2020.

The Zendesk source now offers the option to filter the tickets to be indexed.

When you’re done with your test, you can either delete the test organization or keep it for future use.
