SPEKTRA Edge Release Notes

Changelog for the SPEKTRA Edge services.

For changes to the operating system running on your devices, see the SPEKTRA Edge OS release notes.

2026-09-25

Search: Fixed an issue with search results.
Search: Equality, IN, and CONTAINS filters in search requests match exact values and are case-sensitive, the same as in list requests. Free-text phrase search is unchanged.

2026-09-23

SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Free-text search and structured filters on list views, with autocomplete-style suggestions where the platform supports them.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Monitoring items are grouped in the sidebar; project overview shows a clearer resource summary.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Home dashboard can show AI alerting cards and personalized starter layouts based on your permissions.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: AI alert insight cards summarize recent alerting activity.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Access pages group grants by principal and show grant date, role detail, group links, and account state.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Device details share a metrics time range across charts, with container log filtering and SSH / USB Guard summaries.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Application pods support log Live and History views; the pod-detail Logs tab is renamed Audit for platform activity; distribution detail links to the project’s Devices list filtered by that distribution.
Agent Dashboard: Conversation search runs across projects you can access; dark theme styling is corrected, and you can choose light, dark, or system theme.
Agent Dashboard: You can resume or resend after an interrupted chat turn.
Agent Dashboard: Conversation feedback hides after submit even when your sign-in email uses mixed-case letters.
Agent Dashboard: Agent-preset MCP connector checkboxes no longer select project-scoped and system-scoped connectors together when they share an id.
ZTP Dashboard: During camera scan, the modal lists only devices found in the current scan session; scanning a QR code from an image file is more reliable while the camera is still running.
Search: List filters gain autocomplete-style prefix suggestions.
Devices: Device identity matching rejects placeholder serials and follows a clearer field priority when choosing which identity field to use.
AI: Troubleshooting no longer drops silently after a conversation is created.
AI: Claude adaptive thinking and GPT reasoning summaries are available where the model supports them.

2026-08-26

AI: Cross-project documents used for troubleshooting are limited to an allowlist.
AI: Troubleshooting sessions recover more reliably when a previous run did not finish cleanly.
AI: Built-in AI roles include the permissions needed to use AI features end to end.
IAM: Email verification is tied to the identity claim selected for sign-in.
IAM: Keycloak and Zitadel can be used as the identity provider, with a switchable user-management setup.
IAM: Authentication accepts a configurable clock-skew allowance between clients and the platform.
IAM: Device agents can use ZTNA provider capabilities they need to operate.
IAM: Projects, Organizations, Groups, RoleBindings, and ServiceAccounts can be filtered by lifecycle state in search; Projects can also be filtered by parent organization.
Devices: Devices and ProvisioningPolicies can be filtered by lifecycle state in search.
Applications: Pods, ConfigMaps, and Distributions can be filtered by lifecycle state in search.
Secrets: Secrets can be filtered by lifecycle state in search.
Secrets: Secret encryption continues to work through Vault Transit disruptions, with protection against accidental key deletion.
Alerting: Related pod-health alerts can be grouped the same way device-connectivity alerts are.
Search: Platform search now uses the built-in search backend only (the previous Algolia-backed option is removed).

2026-08-12

SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: AI chat routes and project menu items appear only when you have the required IAM permissions.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: You can continue an AI conversation from an alert and resume or resend after an interrupted turn.

SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Anomaly-detection forms keep raise/silence durations correctly when you edit them.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Devices and pods show health-check status at a glance.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Visual theme updates across chat, alerts, headers, and shared controls, including clearer charts in dark mode.

2026-07-08

AI: Troubleshooting jobs time out instead of running indefinitely.
AI: Agents no longer escalate automatically when a device still shows a stale disconnected status.
AI: Retired chat models are blocked so clients cannot keep using a model that has been withdrawn.
Alerting: Alerts flap less often because silence windows follow raise windows by default; simultaneous device-connectivity alerts can be grouped into one.

Devices: Device status reports which droplet features are enabled.
Devices: Legacy devices show connection status correctly.
Devices: TPM manufacturer certificates are available for device attestation flows.
Limits: Usage can be queried through usage-record APIs, and allowance policies can be configured.
Monitoring: Custom metrics keep working correctly after API-server restarts.
Monitoring: Timeseries ingest and query stay available through fixes for a crash loop and a metadata deadlock.
API: Responses can be larger by default (up to 64 MB), which matters for clients that read big list or export payloads.

2026-06-10

AI: Chat models running on your devices can be used through proxies with an OpenAI-compatible API.

SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Home dashboard cards are easier to add and arrange; organization and project lists respect your permissions.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Prompt templates keep their structure when variable values are filled in; the first chat message is handed off reliably when opening a conversation.
SPEKTRA Edge Dashboard: Sign-in return URLs stay on the same site for safer redirects.

2026-05-06
