Welcome to our changelog! 🚀​

Stay updated on the latest changes and improvements in nullplatform.

✨ Updates to our IaC provider plugin​

We've made improvements to our Infrastructure as Code (IaC) provider plugin to make it easier for you to use and integrate with nullplatform.

Here's what's new:

  • New resources to configure nullplatform, including:
    • Service, link, and action specifications
    • Users
    • Grant permissions
    • Technology templates
    • API keys
  • New usage examples for resources and data sources – Quickly implement features with clear, practical examples.
  • New schema descriptions – Configure your infrastructure using detailed specifications.

👉 Check out the nullplatform IaC plugin to explore all these updates!

✨ Improvements to Services​

We’ve made significant updates to Services, giving you more flexibility and control!

Customize the look & feel of your UI​

With the JSON UI Schema (uiSchema), you can tailor the appearance of services, links, and action forms beyond the default rendering. Now you can:

  • Add Markdown text to forms
  • Apply custom decorations to controls
  • Organize forms using arrays and collapsible groups

👉 Learn more about designing and customizing your UI in our documentation.

Enhanced control over service availability​

Easily manage where your services can be linked with new availability settings. Now, you can:

  • Specify dimensions (e.g., environments like PROD or regions like ARG) or scopes where the service can be linked.
  • Allow linking outside the application to make the service visible to other levels of your organization.

This makes it easier to control how and where the created services are available.

Here’s what users will see in the UI:

  • Designing and creating services.
  • Crafting service, action, and link specifications.

  • Create, edit, and delete API keys as needed.
  • Assign roles and set access to resources.
  • Add tags to organize and find keys easily.

  • Setting limits based on resource size
  • And more
