Deprecation of the legacy Home experience with 24.10

We will be officially deprecating the legacy Home experience with the 24.10 release.

With this change, the following areas will be impacted:

Layout Template

  • The Home workspace area will be renamed to Home.

  • The Home and Summary area will be renamed to Summary panel. Customizations in this area will still apply to the Summary panel in new Home. For more information, see Customize Home and Summary using a layout template.

  • We will remove the following tabs from the Home and Summary panel:

    • Projects
    • Documents
    • Document versions

Note: The document and document versions only applied to legacy home. They did not allow you to customize the Summary in the Documents area.

Manage approvals

  • You will no longer be able to recall, remind, or remove users from submitted approvals in the Home area. Instead, you can manage this on the approval itself.

Users are encouraged to begin using new Home, which will continue to be enhanced with additional features prior to the deprecation.

NOTE
After Legacy home is deprecated, new Home will be referred to as Home in Workfront. All new Home documentation will be renamed to Home.
