NITRO Tiles and Dials

NITRO ID Column

The NITRO ID Column now has support for Content Type as a placeholder in the ID settings. This will allow you to create IDs based on the Content Type of the document or list item being created so you can more easily identify the document or list item.

The custom ID can be included in searches, further making it easier to find your documents and items.
