# New in 0.3

> Messages, several outputs per report, when:, number filters and locale:, and the teams and google_chat destinations.

DRE 0.3 sends headline numbers to people who don’t want a file. Nothing breaks: a project that works on 0.2 runs unchanged, and older plugins keep working.

-   **[Messages](https://getdre.com/docs/messages/)**: `format: message` renders a report’s results into a short headline (a title and a few lines of text) for Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Chat or an email body. It’s built in, and also written as a `.md` file that any file destination delivers.
-   **Several outputs per report**: `output:` can be a list, each with a `name:` and the `queries:` it formats. The queries run once, so the workbook and the headline agree, and a message can link to (`outputs.<name>.location`) or attach (`attach:`) the files.
-   **`when:`** on any output: skipped, not failed, when its condition over the results is false.
-   **Number filters** in every template: `number`, `percent`, `signed`, `currency` and `compact`, formatted for a new [`locale:`](https://getdre.com/docs/templates/#locale) key (project, folder, report or Set).
-   **New destinations**: `teams` and `google_chat` post messages through a webhook (release candidates, `1.0.0-rc.1`). `slack` 1.1.0 and `email` 1.1.0 take messages too.
-   **`dre run --preview`** prints each message instead of sending it.
-   **Records**: `run_results.json` gains `output_results` (one entry per output, with its status and, for a message, the full text it sent); the manifest gains `outputs` per Binding. Existing fields are unchanged and cover every output.
-   **Plugin protocol**: destinations can advertise `message` and `message_only`, `deliver` can carry a message, and `describe` a message length limit (`dre-protocol` 0.3.0). See [the protocol](https://getdre.com/docs/protocol/#messages).

To use messages in Slack or email, update those packages: `dre plugin update slack` and `dre plugin update email`. Add `teams` or `google_chat` under `plugins:` in `dependencies.yml` to use them. The schemas for editor checks are at `/schemas/v0.3/`.
