--- title: "Release notes for Fleet Management | Grafana Cloud documentation" description: "Release notes for the Grafana Fleet Management APIs and application" --- # Release notes for Fleet Management Grafana Fleet Management release notes include important changes to the Fleet Management APIs and application. Notes are kept for a rolling six-month window, except for deprecations and breaking changes, which are kept for longer. The changes are categorized by the following types: - **Features** create a brand new feature. - **Enhancements** update an existing feature. - **Fixes** correct a bug or unintended behavior. - **Breaking changes** require changes to existing customer integrations to prevent unexpected behavior. - **Deprecations** mark a feature or functionality as obsolete and planned for future removal. ## May 4, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Add the Alloy component editor for building custom configuration pipelines from a searchable catalog of schema-backed components, with form-based fields, reference dropdowns, and validation. | | Feature | Support `collector_id` sent as Loki structured metadata for self-monitoring logs to avoid stream cardinality issues. | | Enhancement | Flatten the Grafana Cloud navigation menu to make Fleet Management more findable. The application is now only one level deep: **Connections** > **Fleet Management**. | | Enhancement | Make Instrumentation Hub pipelines read-only. | | Fix | Prevent Grafana Cloud global keyboard shortcuts from triggering inside configuration editors. Before the fix, typing letters in the editor that form keyboard shortcuts (such as `ge`) performed the shortcut action, sometimes taking users out of the Fleet Management code editor. | | Fix | Update backend source descriptors so Grafana-sourced pipelines can be edited, activated, or deactivated. | | Fix | Preserve the pipeline source when a pipeline is edited. Before the fix, the source type disappeared from the application after a pipeline was edited. | ## April 20, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Enhancement | Improve readability of the **Logs** tab by displaying timestamps on log entries, adding a case-insensitive search box for filtering logs, and enabling word wrap, JSON formatting, and expandable log details. Timestamps are also now shown on remote configuration error logs in the Health tab. | | Enhancement | Add a Configuration tab, Edit and Duplicate quick actions, a status badge, and a View history link to the pipeline details drawer on the Remote configuration tab. | | Enhancement | Improve configuration code editor to fill available space and keep action buttons always visible. | | Enhancement | Allow opening of the pipeline editor in a new tab from the **Remote configuration** list and details drawer by making the edit/view action a real link that supports right-click, middle-click, and Ctrl/Cmd-click. | | Fix | Set pipeline history code editors to read-only mode. | | Fix | Improve load performance by removing matched collector count from **Remote configuration** tab. | | Fix | Return a clear `400 BAD REQUEST` validation error with message `id is not a valid integer` when calling the `DeletePipeline` API with a non-numeric `id`. Previously, such requests produced inconsistent errors. | | Fix | Preselect the Grafana Cloud Prometheus and Loki data sources (or the user’s saved choice) in the collector details **Health** and **Logs** tabs, so queries no longer fall back to an unrelated data source and fail. | | Fix | Fix blank configuration editors in the pipeline details drawer and **Edit configuration** page so content renders correctly. | ## April 10, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Add pipeline details drawer with a **Matched collectors** tab for quick access from the list of configuration pipelines. Clicking on a pipeline opens the details view. | | Feature | Display the number of collectors matched to all pipelines on the **Remote configuration** tab | | Enhancement | Add operating system selection grid to the Alloy installation workflow. | | Enhancement | Add detection for stale rollout of effective configuration. After two minutes of unresolved `pending` state, the **Configuration** tab in the details view displays a warning that the collector might be offline. | | Fix | Include `collector_id` label in the URL filter for the **Explore logs** button in the collector details view. Before the fix, the filter was empty, forcing users to manually set labels. | ## March 24, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Display a collector’s effective configuration on the **Configuration** tab of its details view. If the effective and server configurations differ, show both, along with a status message. | | Feature | Add a remote configuration dashboard to the **Health** tab in the collector details view. The dashboard reports the latest configuration load status, the load status over time, and any remote configuration errors. | | Enhancement | Improve bulk collector updates and deletions for large fleets by chunking and queuing API calls from the UI. | | Enhancement | Add a reset filters option to the remote configuration page. | | Fix | Fix a bug in the collector status filter so the chevron opens the dropdown menu and all selected statuses render as pills. | | Fix | Filter reserved attributes by collector type in matching attribute dropdown. | | Fix | Enable adding and editing of attributes in the collector detail view **Attributes** tab. | ## March 2, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Enable users to add new Alloy collectors directly from the **Inventory** tab with an **Add collector** button. | | Fix | Fix an issue where adding a custom attribute in the UI caused the collector to stop receiving any pipelines, not only in the UI but also in the `remotecfg` service itself. | | Fix | Restore **Last connection** timestamp in the **Inventory** tab for collectors that unregister from Fleet Management and are marked inactive. | | Fix | Fix an issue where saving collector details could remove existing local attributes. | | Fix | Allow remote attributes to be added or removed from the collector detail view. | | Breaking change | Change the behavior of the `UpdateCollector` endpoint so requests that omit the `enabled` field default to the existing state of the collector. Prior to the change, requests to `UpdateCollector` that omitted the `enabled` field defaulted to `enabled = false` and the collector couldn’t be remotely configured. | ## February 13, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Enable filtering of the **Inventory** tab by collector type. | | Feature | Add a button to the **Health** tab in the collector details drawer that directs to Alloy Health dashboards. The button appears only if the Alloy Health integration is installed. | | Feature | Add a duplicate button to the **Remote configuration** tab. | | Feature | Enable bulk deleting of configuration pipelines from the **Remote configuration** tab. | | Enhancement | Add the BulkDeletePipelines endpoint to the Pipeline API. This endpoint deletes multiple pipelines by ID in a single, atomic operation. | | Enhancement | Improve select-all functionality with pagination for collectors and configuration pipelines. | | Fix | Report the correct number of collectors shown when the **Inventory** list is filtered. | | Fix | Allow users with `read` access to click on collectors to view details such as health status, logs, and configuration. | ## January 27, 2026 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Create the **Overview** tab with a dashboard for collector and pipeline statistics, including counts, limits, errors, and collector distribution across type, version, and operating system. | | Enhancement | Add the `GetSummary` endpoint to the Tenant API. This endpoint provides aggregate statistics for collectors and pipelines in a stack. | | Enhancement | Hide by default collectors that are inactive for three hours or more on the **Assign matching attributes** screen in the configuration pipeline workflow. | | Fix | Restore `collector.` prefix to display name of reserved attributes. | | Fix | Update UTF-8 character encoding to allow pipeline syntax validation to pass when those characters are included. | ## December 15, 2025 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Beginning with Alloy v1.12.0, visually link configuration pipeline errors to the collectors running the faulty pipelines. Collectors with pipeline errors have a red health status. Pipeline errors are listed in the collector details view. | | Feature | Integrate Grafana Assistant in the configuration pipeline workflow with pre-configured prompts for explaining, validating, fixing, optimizing, or visualizing pipelines. | | Enhancement | Add `Collector App Reader` plugin role for fine-grained role-based access control (RBAC). The role grants designated users read-only access to Fleet Management resources. | ## November 20, 2025 Expand table | Type | Description | |-----------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Add support for private connectivity options: AWS PrivateLink, Azure Private Link, and GCP Private Service Connect. | | Feature | Create new Tenant API, which currently consists of a single endpoint, `GetLimits`. Calls to this endpoint return all applicable collector, pipeline, and API limits for the stack. | | Breaking change | Change the behavior of the `UnregisterCollector` endpoint to mark collectors inactive rather than deleting them. | ## November 5, 2025 Expand table | Type | Description | |---------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Feature | Add Source column to remote configuration tab to identify the origin of externally sourced pipelines. Column only appears if externally sourced pipelines are present. | | Feature | Publish a GitHub Action to allow users to automatically sync configuration pipelines with Fleet Management using a CI/CD workflow. | ## October 31, 2025 Expand table | Type | Description | |-------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Deprecation | Deprecate `attributes` and `attribute_overrides` fields in the Collector API in favor of `local_attributes` and `remote_attributes` fields respectively. Users should update any integrations to use `local_attributes` and `remote_attributes` instead. |
