Welcome to our October update roundup! This month, we focused on making Rely.io more flexible, secure, and insightful. From new integrations to improved dashboards and an enhanced authentication journey, we're excited to share what we've accomplished to bring you more value.
Contextual Filters for More Relevant Dashboards
We know how important it is for you to have the right data at your fingertips.
Dashboards in your Homepage and in your Software Catalog already support User based Dynamic Filters for Related Entities Widgets (for instance, shown in my homepage the list of my on-call team-members).
The contextual filters can now be used within the Table Widgets’ filters and have also been extended to also support both Team and Entity based filters on top of User.
With Relative Filters users can now apply filters on tables using any property available from:
- Who they are as the logged in user, using filters like
user.email(e.g. to show “my PRs” only) - What team the current user belongs to, using filters like
team.title - What entity they are currently exploring (only applicable to the Software Catalog), using filters like
entity.owner
With our new Relative Filters feature, you can now further personalize your dashboards effortlessly. These filters allow you to add contextual elements, such as user.<property>, team.<property>, or entity.<property>.
Whether you're viewing your own data, looking at your team's progress, or focusing on specific entities, these filters adapt in real-time to your current context, providing a more tailored experience.
Bring visibility to your code quality & security with the SonarQube and Snyk plugins
We're thrilled to announce the release of two new plugins: SonarQube and Snyk.
These integrations bring visibility to code quality and security via the Software Catalog, enabling teams to easily track how the Services they own are performing.
By incorporating SonarQube and Snyk into their workflows, Engineering Leaders not only gain better control over their projects' health but also leverage Scorecards to monitor and increase compliance of their teams and services, ensuring a higher standard of quality and security across your development efforts.
The two plugins are available both as Managed & Self Hosted to fit your deployment requirements.
Troubleshooting Made Easy with Plugin Logs
Ensure your data is properly flowing into the platform is essential to keeping your Software Catalog up to date. The current view of your active plugins already displays a quick summary of their status (active, warning, error).
This month we've made it easier to understand what's happening under the hood with your active plugins.
Their detailed view now includes an additional tab with the actual execution logs from your plugin (whether they are self hosted or managed).
You can now view logs directly in the plugin UI, making troubleshooting faster and more transparent. No more diving deep into configurations or searching through agent logs—you can see what went right or wrong right where you need it.
Enhanced Plugins with APIs Rate Limiting Management in Galaxy
Galaxy, our integration framework, has undergone a significant upgrade this month. We understand that API rate limits can be a real pain point when working with external tools. To address this, Galaxy can now run multiple workers and intelligently shard tasks to respect API rate limits in your integrated systems. This means smoother plugin operations without unexpected slowdowns or interruptions.
Simplified and Secure Authentication with SSO
Your security and convenience are always a priority for us. This month, we've introduced Single Sign-On (SSO) with Okta and Google, making it easier than ever to securely sign up or log in to Rely.io. We've also overhauled our entire authentication flow, ensuring a smooth and secure experience from the first interaction (the invitation, sign up and first log in journeys have all been greatly simplified with reduced steps and clicks).
On the Horizon
Here’s a preview of features coming next:
- Engineering Performance Dashboard: Engineering Leaders can review and compare Engineering KPIs across many dimensions (Domains, Teams, Environments) from a single view.
- Onboarding Wizard for Free Trials: New users will soon benefit from a step-by-step guide, taking them from first login to actionable insights like DORA metrics in under five minutes.
- Guided Experience for Adding Plugins: Soon, we’ll be bringing the new configuration wizard to the journey for adding new plugins, ensuring every step is clear and efficient there too.
- Standardized Plugins: Look out for improvements as we standardize more plugins by type (Incident Management, Observability, CI/CD), making integrations even more seamless.
As well as our next incoming Plugins:
- FluxCD
- ServiceNow
- Incident.io
- Rootly
- Jenkins
- Linear
