Bitrix24 сonference - my impressions

Recently, I attended the Bitrix24Idea Conference. The conference was held at the Moscow School of Management in Skolkovo. It was divided into five streams, including one interactive stream, where participants expressed their ideas on various business topics.


Many interesting reports I wanted to hear about came at the same time, and I had to make difficult choices. However, this is not a big problem: the video recording of the conference will be available soon.
I was impressed with the presentation of a new Bitrix24 version. I want to note such new features as the ability to show targeted social networks advertising to CRM contacts segments, and the ability to do newsletters on these segments directly from Bitrix24.
Mysterious new component - the 5th element of Bitrix24: Bitrix24 Sites are also very pleased. This novelty opens up, to my customers, new great prospects, and I'm eager to try it.
In my opinion the new CRM card - is much more convenient than the old one.
Thanks to the organizers of #bitrixconf, their event was interesting and informative.

How to add a custom activity type in Bitrix24 CRM

During one of our recent self-hosted Bitrix24 implementations, we had the task of adding a new type of Activity to CRM - something between a Call Activity and a Visit Activity.

We found out that the crm.timeline component is responsible for the output of this part of the interface. In particular, its template.php contains a list of displayed links to case types. For example, for a call, something like: Accordingly, as we can see, this is a regular link with the data parameter item-item-id. So we can add ours, with our own unique data-item-id. As you can see, the href for the link is set as "#" - clicking on this link is processed by the JS code from the script.js of this component. Indeed, the BX.CrmTimelineMenuBar function is responsible for this.processItemSelection()....

How to properly develop your own REST methods for on-premise Bitrix24

During one of our recent implementations, CRM Bitrix24 was used as a backend for another external system - for a student's account. Through an account interface, students can apply for training in the chosen course, upload the necessary documents, monitor the status of their application, pay tuition bills, and also interact with their curators. All this is very deeply integrated with Bitrix24 business processes. For such a deep integration of Bitrix with a third-party system, we lacked standard REST methods - the logic for using requests became too complicated and confusing.
