🧶💫 Redesigned connection link overview: Pending connections are now Connection links under Integrations, grouped by status with one timeline per link that shows each step and its requests, so it's easier to see where a customer got stuck.

Highlights

• 🔐 Enforced Credential Encryption: As part of our ongoing commitment to security, we have completed the rollout of enforced encryption for all stored partner credentials and OAuth tokens. All sensitive credentials are now encrypted at rest, providing an additional layer of security for you and your customers.
• 📢 Deprecation of remote_data: The remote_data field is being deprecated across all models. It is now hidden in the scope configuration UI for new setups and will be removed in a future version of the API. Please ensure your applications do not rely on this field for new integrations.

Other Updates

• ⚙️ Developer Experience: We've added a new setting to our Sandbox integrations allowing you to clear all written data on the next sync, making it easier to reset your test environment. We've also published new documentation on how to connect our API docs to tools like ChatGPT and added clarification on the write capabilities for ATS notes.
• ⚡ Performance & Reliability: Loading the request logs for large interactions in the dashboard is now significantly faster. We've also improved the reliability of SFTP connections by fixing an issue that could cause clients to hang on disconnect.

Highlights

• 🇨🇦 Canada Region Launch: You can now process and store your data in our new Canada region. Learn More
• 🔐 Federated S3 Authentication for File Destinations: You can now configure S3 file destinations using GCP to AWS web identity federation. This allows you to grant Kombo access to your S3 buckets via a secure IAM role, instead of using static access keys.
• 👥 In-Dashboard User Management: User management has moved from our external provider directly into the Kombo Dashboard.
  You can invite teammates and manage user groups directly under the "RBAC" item in your Dashboard's sidebar.

Highlights

• ⚡️ Faster Incremental Syncs: We've significantly improved the performance of filtering using the updated_after parameter across all our APIs. This will make your incremental data syncs faster and more efficient, especially for integrations with large datasets.

Highlights

• 🔗 Enable Static IPs via API: You can now enable Static IPs for a new connection directly from the POST /connect/create-link endpoint by using the new enable_static_ips parameter. This simplifies the setup process for integrations that require IP allowlisting.
• ⚙️ More Efficient Sync Scheduling: We've optimized our sync scheduler for integrations that support webhooks. Full syncs will now run less frequently (every 2 days instead of every 10 hours), while delta syncs run more often (every 6 hours). This reduces unnecessary API calls to providers and ensures you get fresher data when it matters most.

Highlights

• 🧪 Advanced Mappings are now enabled by default for all development environments.

Other Updates

• 📈 The Data Explorer's applicant kanban view now includes a filter for application outcomes (Pending, Hired, Declined)
• 🛠️ We've improved error reporting for sync units: when a step fails, any dependent downstream steps will now be marked as "Skipped" instead of "Failed".

• 📣 Monitor Integration Health with Issues and Webhooks: We've launched a new Issues system to give you greater visibility into integration health. You can now see customer-facing issues, such as authentication failures, directly in your Kombo Dashboard. Subscribe to the new issue-status-changed webhook to receive real-time notifications when issues are raised or resolved.

Highlights

• 📊 Data Consistency: Custom fields are now consistently stored as empty objects `{}` instead of `NULL` to improve data consistency across the platform.
• 🔐 Improved OAuth Reliability for Token Rotations
  We've significantly improved the reliability of our OAuth-based integrations, especially for providers like Greenhouse that rotate access tokens frequently.
• ⚡ Smarter Data Change Tracking
  We've enhanced our change tracking system to be smarter about what constitutes a data update.
  This change especially helps to avoid triggering large, unnecessary delta syncs.

• 🚀 More Granular Syncs with Sync Units: Sync Units break large syncs into smaller, independent parts — enabling more efficient data updates, per-model webhooks, and faster unlocks of API endpoints.
  We will be rolling this out to more customers progressively.
• ⚡️ Improved API Performance with Shared Token Caching: We've rolled out a new platform-wide caching layer for integration access tokens. This significantly reduces redundant authentication requests, leading to faster and more reliable API calls, especially for high-volume operations.
• 🔎 Filter Logs by Job or Application ID: You can now filter logs in the dashboard by a specific Job ID or Application ID, speeding up the debugging process.
