Developer Portal

Oct 7, 2026 Developer Portal backstage v0.246.3
Fixed
- (ui-react, gs) Jump to #heading links within rendered markdown on the 0.244 line by @marians — Table-of-contents and other #heading links in rendered markdown (README and SOUL cards, plans) jump to the heading, and a collapsed card expands to show it.
Full Changelog: https://github.com/giantswarm/backstage/compare/v0.246.2...v0.246.3
Oct 7, 2026 Developer Portal backstage v2.92.1
Fixed
- (gs) Read semverFilter for a deployment’s automatic upgrades by @teemow — On a deployment’s page, the About card’s Auto-upgrade takes the Flux tag filter into account and reads e.g. Release candidates only or Dev builds only instead of Any. Edit pre-fills the filter and whether pre-releases are included.
- (muster) One name per MCP server auth mode by @teemow — An MCP server’s authentication mode has the same name everywhere, e.g. Own account (OAuth sign-in): in the servers table, the new-server wizard and its review step, and in a new Mode row on the server’s page.
Development and CI/CD
- (deps) Update dependency @sentry/react to v10.75.2 by @renovate[bot]
Full Changelog: https://github.com/giantswarm/backstage/compare/v2.92.0...v2.92.1
Oct 7, 2026 Developer Portal backstage v2.92.0
Added
- (flux-react) Show each resource card’s manifest as YAML by @marians — In the Flux UI’s details panel, every resource card has a View YAML button that opens the resource’s manifest read-only, with Copy manifest. The agent and workflow manifest dialogs look and copy the same way.
- (gs) Show worker CPU and memory capacity of clusters by @QuentinBisson — A cluster’s About card shows Worker capacity, e.g. 4 nodes · 32 vCPUs · 128 GiB RAM, and the Clusters table has optional, sortable Worker CPU and Worker memory columns.
- (plans) Hive merges Plans, Roadmap and the magazine by @teemow — Plans, Roadmap and the product magazine become one sidebar entry, Hive, with the tabs Now, History, Roadmap, Plans and Knowledge and a shared team selector and search. Old links redirect. Disabled by default.
Changed
- (repositories) Reach Create repository only from the Repositories page by @marians — For operators: catalog.createComponent can no longer be bound to the repository form, and a config that still binds it fails at startup. The Repositories page’s Create repository button is unchanged.
Fixed
- (agent-platform) Read delete_cluster’s nothingLeft as removal done by @teemow — The Delete cluster dialog ends in a success message once nothing of the cluster is left, instead of a red refusal, also when opened on a cluster that is already removed.
- (agent-platform) Show Delete only on clusters create_cluster made by @marians — On a cluster’s page, Delete shows only for clusters made with Create cluster. Other clusters no longer offer it, where the dialog could only show a refusal.
- (app) Skip TelemetryDeck on an empty app ID, log init failures by @teemow — For operators: with an empty TelemetryDeck app ID, the portal logs one browser console warning and sends nothing, and a failed initialisation is logged instead of silently dropping all usage data.
- (app) Offer the GitHub tabs only on a portal with a GitHub login by @teemow — On portals without a GitHub login, a component’s page no longer shows the GitHub Actions and Pull Requests tabs, which only opened a Login Required: GitHub dialog that could never succeed.
- (backend) Warn at startup when the telemetry app ID is empty by @teemow — For operators: with TelemetryDeck enabled but app.telemetrydeck.appID empty, the backend logs a warning at startup, since the portal then sends no usage data at all.
- (backend) Retry the database at start, exit on a failed boot by @teemow — For operators: a backend started before its database retries for up to five minutes and turns ready once the database is up. A failed start exits instead of hanging unready, and the chart adds a startupProbe.
- (gs) Keep the sidebar without a main auth provider by @teemow — On a portal without a main auth provider, such as a local start with guest sign-in, the sidebar renders again instead of disappearing.
- (gs) Open the cluster page of a cluster a HelmRelease installs by @teemow — The page of a cluster installed by a Flux HelmRelease, such as one made with Create cluster, opens instead of showing a NotFoundError, with a new Installed by card showing the release, chart, version and status.
- (gs, kubernetes-react) Secret store picker lists external-secrets.io/v1 stores and shows readable errors by @marians — In templates such as RDS and ElastiCache, the secret store picker lists SecretStores and ClusterSecretStores again, and says why when it can’t, instead of [object Object].
- (scaffolder) Refresh cluster tokens when a template is submitted by @QuentinBisson — Templates that apply resources to a cluster no longer fail with an expired token after a long form: the token is fetched on Create. A failed start shows an error on the review step, and Create works again.

Fixed
- (app) Offer the GitHub tabs only with a GitHub login on the 0.244 line by @teemow — On portals without a GitHub login, a component’s page no longer shows the GitHub Actions and Pull Requests tabs, which only opened a Login Required: GitHub dialog that could never succeed.

Oct 6, 2026 Developer Portal backstage v2.91.1
Fixed
- (agent-platform) Identity picker for the preselected provider line by @teemow — In the Create cluster dialog, the cloud identity field lists the installation’s AWS identities when the AWS provider line is preselected, instead of offering a free text field.

Added

Oct 5, 2026 Developer Portal backstage v2.90.0
Added
- (flux-react, kubernetes-react) Show Flux Operator resources in the Flux UI by @marians — The Flux UI shows FluxInstance, ResourceSet, ResourceSetInputProvider and FluxReport in its list and tree views, each with a details panel. Reconcile, Suspend and Resume work on all but FluxReport.
Fixed
- (gs) Show every installation’s versions on the Installations page by @teemow — On the Installations page, every row shows its Kubernetes version and release again. A row that can’t be read says why in a few words, e.g. Timed out or Not signed in.

Oct 5, 2026 Developer Portal backstage v2.89.0
Added
- (agent-platform) Render files attached to a session’s messages by @QuentinBisson — On a session’s page, an image attached to a message shows inline and opens at full size when selected. Any other file shows as a chip with its name, type and size.
- (gs) Read the Installations page’s versions in one request by @teemow — The Installations page reads its Kubernetes version and Release columns in one request: all rows fill within seconds instead of one by one, and at once from the cache on a revisit.
