We are excited that this release, like our 2024.2 one, continues to add more functionality across the board for all users. For Admins, we added new abilities to verify user credentials and provision users and groups via external IdP sources, additional powerful configuration options, and performance improvements for important API endpoints (User, Groups, Events). For developers, we added an API Client for Python. We also made further UX/usability and customization enhancements, with a revamped UI for log messages and converting several multi-select boxes into dual-select. Using dual-select components across the interface is the goal; they provide a much cleaner UX for our users.

Let’s take a look at some of the highlights of this release.
