CircleCI machine images have been updated with the latest software versions. Learn more about these changes:

Organization Settings > Integrations > Remove known_hosts in the CircleCI UI no longer references GitLab Self-Managed when trying to remove known_hosts for a Bitbucket Data Center integration.

Users who had more than ~200 repositories in their GitLab.com organization were hitting a timeout error when setting up a new project that required them to select one of their repositories.

The “branch” and “commit” fields are now populated in the CircleCI UI for Bitbucket Data Center pipelines.

When CircleCI cannot find a config file at the configured repository + filepath, a more descriptive error message is now shown in the CircleCI UI. This is only applicable to users that integrate with CircleCI’s GitHub App.

Users who install CircleCI’s GitHub App will now be redirected very briefly (~1 second) to a loading screen in the CircleCI UI after installing the GitHub App. Users will then be automatically redirected to continue with their setup in the CircleCI UI.

Fixes

• Fixes an issue in 4.3.7 that prevented imagePullSecrets from compiling without secrets set.

An experimental feature to filter notifications by branch “notify” is now deprecated. It will be removed in 30 days September 8th, 2024. Once this change is completed customers will continue to receive notifications but they will no longer be filtered by branch.

What’s changed?

• Authenticated users are now redirected from /server-login to the app subdomain’s dashboard.
• Users who require admin approval before logging in will now see an error message on the login screen.
• Improved error handling when retrieving pipeline values from GCS
• Default resource class can now be set via Repl.
• Project-based context restrictions now populate the project list.
• ~Improved k8s runner start up times. Task agent will now be initialized via init image rather than waiting to copy over the agent after the task pod has started.~

Update: Aug 12, 2024. We discovered that the init container changes were not included in this release and have updated the change log.

We have made changes to the infrastructure that hosts CircleCI’s documentation in response to reports of slow loading & intermittent usability issues.

The timeout threshold for CircleCI’s outbound webhooks functionality has been increased from 5 seconds to 10 seconds.

Enhancements

• Updated AMIs. These images are now based on ubuntu 22.04. Older images are no longer available at this time.

Bug Fixes

• Fix to address a change in the Github API validation for the content-type field which is breaking webhook setup for projects

Runner Release 3.0.24

Both Machine and Container Runner:

There is no longer an optional step to connect your VCS when accepting an invitation to a CircleCI organization that integrates with GitLab or GitHub App

As of June 28 24:00 UTC, the Intel-based macOS Gen2 macos.x86.medium.gen2 resource class is no longer available. Jobs that specify this resource will fail with an Invalid resource class error.

The Plan card on the Organization Homepage in the CircleCI web app was not including credits charged for using CircleCI’s Releases functionality. This has been fixed.

When one organization shares a plan with another organization, the plan tier of the parent organization is shown on the User Homepage (/home) of the CircleCI web app. Previously, this showed Free.

The “User Homepage” of the CircleCI web app now has a smoother transition when a user clicks on a card.

On certain pages of the CircleCI web app, the organization ID was shown in the title of the page in the browser instead of the actual title of the page. This has been fixed.

The “project cards” on the “Organization Home” of the CircleCI web app now say “< 1 minute ago” instead of “less than one minute ago” to avoid wrapping onto the second line of the card.

Users will now see a message in the CircleCI web app requesting that they submit a form if they have been marked as suspended for suspected abuse in order to have the suspension removed.

If a user is not logged in to CircleCI but is attempting to view something in the CircleCI web app, the left-hand navigation’s text is now readable. It was previously using a font color that made it unreadable.

The “Notification Center” in the top right corner of the CircleCI web app no longer lets a user click the “Dismiss All” option if there are no notifications to dismiss.

When a user clicked “Go back” from the flow to create a project with CircleCI’s GitHub App or GitLab integrations, the web app would not redirect the user back to the previous page that they were on. This has now been fixed.

The “Create Project” button in the CircleCI web app has been updated to look the same in every occurence of the button for consistency.

The “Ask AI” option in the CircleCI web app is now functioning as expected.

The org picker on the left-hand nav of the CircleCI web app had an issue where it was not rendering properly when a user selected the “Everyone’s Pipelines” dropdown on the “All Pipelines” page. This has now been fixed.

CircleCI’s VSCode extension had an issue where it would inconsistently auto-complete certain Windows resource classes & images. This has been fixed. Users do not need to update their VSCode Extension for the fix to be reflected.

Long org names are now truncated properly with an ellipses when shown in the left-hand nav’s org picker in the CircleCI web app.

To simplify the CircleCI web app’s user interface, we have removed the badge in the left-hand navigation that said “Follow x new” which indicated to users that new projects in their organization were available for following.

New release of the CircleCI VSCode extension. This fixes an issue where SSH reruns initiated from the CircleCI VSCode extension would intermittently fail.

A new range of IPs has been added to CircleCI’s macOS Cloud. See the latest IP ranges for macOS.

In the past CircleCI has shown up to three commits for a specific pull request in the UI and returned in “all commit_details” for the jobs API. The commits in the UI linked back to the commit history in the VCS so users could review the commits from the source.

New release of the CircleCI VSCode extension. This completes the fix of an issue with release 2.8.0 where workspace settings get updated without any action by the user.

If a user is logged in to the CircleCI web application, they will now see the correct version of circleci.com which includes a “Go to Application” button in the top-right corner. Previously, they would see a version of circleci.com that had “Sign up” and “Login” buttons in the top-right corner.

Bug Fixes

• fix for hardcoded smtp email in some services
• CVE fixes for web-ui deployment
• fix for duplicate volume in domain-service deployment

The newest macOS orb version 2.5.0 resolves an execution error, “AppleEvent timed out”, previously returned when using the add-safari-permissions command with Xcode 15.x images.

Previously, the “Releases” tab would not show in the left-hand navigation of the CircleCI web app when a user had selected “Projects” if the user was viewing an organization that integrated with CircleCI’s GitHub App or GitLab. This has been resolved and the “Releases” tab always shows up now.

The copy in the email that a user receives when being invited to an organization that integrates with CircleCI’s GitHub App or GitLab has been updated for clarity.

The favicon for CircleCI’s web app should now always render a CircleCI icon.

Previously, when users tried to connect their VCS with a GitHub account that was already linked to a separate CircleCI account, they would encounter a status 500 error. This would manifest in the CircleCI UI as an inability to list repositories on the form to create a project and the screen appeared frozen. Users that run into this scenario will now no longer see a frozen screen and instead be redirected to a page where they see an error message telling them remediation steps.
