😷 Easier handling of quarantined files​

You can now retry or download failed imports directly from the Import errors tab of the Recordings page. Click the ⁝ menu on any row of the table and select retry or download to take action on the quarantined file.

New & Improved

• Clicking the plot button in a Raw Messages panel that is defined using a global variable will now pass the variable reference—rather than the current value—to the new Plot panel

Performance

• Improved memory optimization for plots and state transitions for recorded sources
• Minor app stability improvements

Fixes

• Collada textures can now load on the desktop app
• Fixed a bug with rendering plots after a Topic Alias is updated
• Fixed a bug occasionally preventing Topic Aliases from loading
• Fixed a bug in exporting plots to CSV when a series value is a timestamp
• Fixed a bug causing plots to occasionally reload unnecessarily
• Panning in a Plot panel no longer causes current time indicator on the playback bar to jump around

API

• The v1/data/pending-imports endpoint now returns a quarantinedAt date field for pending imports that have been quarantined
• The v1/data/pending-imports response now returns undefined instead of null for empty fields

This release contains minor updates and fixes to the inbox listener and garbage collector.

New & Improved

• Added: If the LOG_REPEATED_IMPORT_FAILURES environment variable is set to true, the inbox listener will log an error-level message whenever it has to quarantine an input file after exhausting all retries. This can help Primary Site operators detect issues with their deployment.

• Changed: For Primary Sites using Azure storage buckets with hierarchical namespaces enabled, the garbage-collector service will log an info-level message when it attempts to delete a non-empty directory, but it will skip over it.

  Fixes

• Fixed: If the inbox listener attempts to process an MCAP file with an invalid file offset, it will quarantine the file immediately rather than retrying three times.

New & Improved

• Added: Helm chart values to tune pollingInterval, successJobsHistoryLimit and failedJobsHistoryLimit for autoscaling

This release contains support for downloading and retrying quarantined files.

New & Improved

• Added: support for downloading quarantined pending imports. This feature will be enabled through the UI in the near future.

• Note: For this to work, deployers will need to double-check permissions on their inbox bucket to make sure that their stream service has access to read from them.

• Added: support for retrying quarantined pending imports. This feature will be enabled through the UI in the near future.

  Fixes

• Fixed: if the garbage collector cannot delete a temp file, it will log an error instead of aborting.

• Fixed: the request ID tag in inbox listener logs now matches the request ID in the foxglove API for pending imports.

• Fixed: various corrupt BAG and MCAP errors will now result in the file being quarantined immediately rather than retrying 3 times.

🗃️ Direct file access​

If you have a self-managed Primary Site, you can now get the path of MCAP files in your data lake using the /lake-files endpoint. This allows you to directly access your Foxglove data for things like custom analysis, machine learning, post-processing, resimulation, and more.

You can query the /lake-files endpoint for the data associated with a device using deviceId or deviceName and a time range. Alternatively you can request the indexed data associated with a recording using recordingId or recordingKey. In either case, you'll get a list of MCAP files in object storage that you can directly access using your prefered AWS, GCP, or Azure SDKs and tools.

New & Improved

• The Problem sidebar now automatically opens with a 'Retry' button when a network issue can be resolved by reloading the data source

Performance

• Minor performance improvements to message handling
• Plot panel performance improvements

Fixes

• Fixed a bug that was causing extension loading to hang
• MCAP metadata for recordings imported via Edge Sites or Foxglove Agent is now indexed and available through the API
• Fixed minor issues with message path autocomplete
• Fixed an issue with cleaning up background workers for Plot panels
• Fixed a bug preventing data from user scripts to load after switching layouts in some cases
• Fixed bug with reading optional fields in OMG IDL messages
• Fixed a bug causing two instances of a panel to be added to a layout on double-click
• Fixed an occasional bug with the Plot panel where the scatter plot displayed incorrectly until the user interacted with the plot
• Fixed a bug with plot downsampling causing out of memory errors for large datasets at certain zoom levels

API

• For self-managed Primary Sites, the /recording-attachments API now returns lakePath, the path of the object in the data lake

🕥 Quickly switch timezones​

You can now quickly update the timezone being used to display data from the navigation at the top of the app.

📏 Maps have scales​

The Map panel now displays a scale in metric and imperial units to help you understand the size of the area you're viewing.

New & Improved
