Platform Updates - January 11, 2026

Highlights

  • 🔐 Expiring API Keys by Default: To enhance security, all newly generated API keys will now expire after 30 days by default. You can still create non-expiring keys for production use cases by explicitly acknowledging the security implications in the dashboard.
  • 🔎 Flexible API Filtering: We've introduced a new query parameter, ignore_unsupported_filters, to all model GET endpoints. When set to true, our API will ignore any filters not supported by the specific integration, preventing errors and allowing you to use a single filter set across all providers.
  • 🕰️ Extended Audit Log Retention: The retention period for audit logs has been extended up to 3 years for customers on enterprise plans, providing a longer history of activities for compliance and security reviews.

Other Updates

  • 🕵️ API Key User Agent Tracking: We now track the User Agent for each API call, which is visible in the dashboard. This helps you easily identify how your keys are being used, for instance, via our SDKs, Postman, or your application's backend.
  • 📊 Dashboard Improvements: We've rolled out several enhancements to the dashboard, including a more informative coverage grid with descriptions for each capability and an improved, denser UI for viewing API request logs.

Platform Updates - December 28, 2025

Highlights

  • 🔐 Improved Partner Credential Management: We've overhauled the partner credentials management in the dashboard. You can now manage different versions (revisions) of your credentials, assign labels for clarity, and view which integrations are using a specific credential set. This makes it easier to rotate keys and manage credentials at scale.
  • 💪 More Resilient OAuth Connections: We've improved our OAuth token refresh mechanism. We expect to decrease the number of invalid credentials caused by errors during token refreshing.

Other Updates

  • 🖥️ Dashboard Improvements: We've rolled out several enhancements to the dashboard. The logs viewer now has better auto-scrolling behavior and a "Back to top" button. We've also reduced unnecessary network requests in inactive tabs to improve performance.
  • ⚖️ Integration Enablement Flow: To ensure you are fully aware of an integration's capabilities and limitations, you must now visit the integration's detail page in the dashboard before enabling it.

Platform Updates - December 21, 2025

Highlights

  • 🔎 Redesigned Logs for Easier Debugging: We've completely overhauled the Logs page in the dashboard. You can now view the exact data that caused a parsing error and replay failed requests directly in our API explorer, making it much faster to debug integration issues.
  • ⚡️ Faster Syncs with Optimized Filtering: We've significantly improved the performance of requests using the `updated_after` filter. This change speeds up incremental syncs for integrations with large datasets.
  • 🐛 SDK Pagination Fixed: We've resolved an issue in our SDKs where the pagination cursor for the next page of results was not being extracted correctly. Please update to the latest version of the SDK to benefit from this fix.

Other Updates

  • 🔌 Reconnect from Dashboard: You can now trigger a reconnection for an integration with invalid credentials directly from the Kombo dashboard, simplifying the recovery process for your customers.

Platform Updates - December 14, 2025

Highlights

  • 🗓️ New data_expired_at Field: The integration details endpoint now includes a data_expired_at timestamp. This field indicates when an integration's data has become stale, for example, after your customer updates their filter settings or scope config, and is automatically cleared after a successful sync.
  • 🔎 Major Logs Page Upgrade: We've significantly enhanced the logs page in the dashboard. You can now use multi-select filters for status, type, error code, and integrations, making it much easier to drill down into specific interactions. We've also added fuzzy search to dropdowns and new filters like "Uncategorized Errors".

Platform Updates - December 1 - December 7, 2025

Highlights

  • 📣 Deprecation: `remote-event-received` Webhook Removed: As previously announced, the legacy `remote-event-received` webhook has been fully removed. Please ensure you have migrated to our `data-changed` webhook, which provides more granular and reliable notifications for data updates.
  • 🔐 New Webhook Secret Regeneration: For enhanced security, you can now regenerate your webhook signing secret directly from the Kombo dashboard. This allows you to easily rotate keys as part of your security protocol.
  • 💅 Major Dashboard UI Upgrade: We've completely overhauled the select and filter components across the dashboard. This brings a much-improved user experience with searchable, grouped, and multi-select options, making it faster to navigate and find the information you need.

Other Updates

  • ⏰ Timestamps in Logs: All entries in the request logs view now include a timestamp, making it easier to correlate events and debug issues.
  • 📊 Enhanced Log Filtering: You can now filter logs by more properties.
  • 🔗 Improved Webhook Data Visibility: The integrations list in your dashboard now shows when data was last updated by a webhook, giving you a more complete picture of data freshness alongside regular syncs.
  • 🛠️ Improved Webhook Coverage Reporting: We've improved how we communicate the exact coverage of webhooks for each integration, providing more clarity on which events will trigger a notification.

Platform Updates - November 30, 2025

Highlights

  • 📣 Action Coverage in API: The GET /v1/integrations/{integration_id} and GET /v1/tools endpoints now return detailed information about supported write actions, including which input fields are available for each action. This allows you to programmatically discover the full capabilities of an integration.
  • 📜 Improved Developer Dashboard Logs: We've overhauled the logs view in your dashboard. It now features a cleaner UI with markdown formatting for better readability and more helpful error messages to accelerate debugging.
  • Deprecation Notice: The sync-finished webhook is being deprecated. We recommend migrating to the more efficient data-changed webhook to receive real-time notifications for data updates.
