Cloud Changelog
In this guide, you'll find the notable changes to the Cloud dashboard, with the newest change listed first. Each entry lists the changes that went live on its date.
Changes to other parts of Cloud have their own changelogs:
- Cloud CLI Changelog for changes to the
mcloudCLI. - Webhooks Changelog for changes to the webhook events that Cloud delivers.
Pending preview environment states#
- On a pending preview environment's dashboard, its card now shows a dedicated placeholder with a Provision button. The button provisions the environment, or takes you to increase your plan's limit if your organization has reached its concurrent previews limit. Refer to Preview Environments for more details.
- You can now click a pending environment's row in the project's previews table to open its dashboard. Previously, clicking the row did nothing. Refer to Preview Environments for more details.
- A pending environment's dashboard now hides its domain links and the Deployments section, and disables the Trigger Build button until you provision the environment.
AI troubleshooting for failing domains#
- When a domain's verification is failing, its detail page now shows a Troubleshoot with AI button next to the reverify button, which opens an AI-powered flow that helps you diagnose and resolve the issue. The button is available on an environment's custom domain DNS page. Refer to Custom Domains for more details.
Cloud tools in the Medusa MCP server#
- AI tools connected to the Medusa MCP server can now retrieve your Cloud data, such as your organizations, projects, and an environment's deployments. Previously, the server only provided access to your stores' commerce data. Refer to Medusa MCP for the list of tools.
- AI tools can now read an environment's build and runtime logs for its backend or storefront, so you can ask them why a deployment failed or which errors your backend logged.
- AI tools can now list and retrieve an environment's variables. They never receive the values of secret variables.
- AI tools can now check whether Cloud is operational or has an ongoing incident.
Project creation from the MCP consent page#
- When you connect an AI tool to the Medusa MCP server and have no environments to select on the consent page, the page now shows a Create Project button that opens the project creation page in a new tab. Previously, the page only showed an empty message. Refer to Medusa MCP for more details.
- After you complete the payment step of onboarding, the dashboard now takes you to the page you were trying to open before you logged in, if any. Previously, it always took you to the default page.
Redesigned project creation and Stripe payments#
- After you sign up or create a new organization, the dashboard now takes you directly to the projects list. Previously, it took you to a Get started onboarding page, which is now removed. Refer to Create your First Project for more details.
- When your organization has no projects, the projects list now shows a Browse starters card that opens the starter templates page, and an Import repository card that opens the new project form. Previously, it showed a list of featured templates. Refer to Create your First Project for more details.
- The starter templates page is redesigned. You can now filter starters by the DTC or B2B category, open a starter's details with its Preview button, and create a project from it with its Deploy button, which shows the deployment's current phase. The page also has an Import repository button to create a project from your own GitHub repository instead. Refer to Create Projects for more details.
- In a project's security settings, changing the environments of a security feature, such as DDoS or bot protection, now saves the change immediately. Previously, you had to click a Save button. The advanced Cloudflare managed ruleset and OWASP ruleset options are no longer shown.
- The organization's payments settings now show your connected Stripe accounts directly on the main payments page. Each account shows its available and pending balance and its latest payout, an Open in Stripe button to view the account's payments in the Stripe Dashboard, and a Disconnect action in its actions menu. A warning appears if the account is disabled or has outstanding information requirements.
- You can now connect another Stripe account from the payments settings with the Connect another Stripe account button.
- When you have an active Stripe account connected, the payments settings show a Storefront integration section with a snippet for adding the Medusa Payments publishable key to your storefront, with tabs for Next.js and Vite.
Manage Connections in organization settings#
- A new Connections page in the organization's settings lists the OAuth connections that you approved for third-party applications, such as AI tools connected to the Medusa MCP server. The page shows each connection's accessible environments and organizations, its status, and when it was last used. Refer to Connections for more details.
- You can now open a connection to view its details, such as its connection and expiry dates and client ID, and change the environments it can access. A connection must keep access to at least one environment. Previously, you had to re-authenticate the application to change its environments. Refer to Connections for more details.
- You can now revoke a connection from the Connections page, which removes the application's access to the connection's environments. Refer to Connections for more details.
Domain proxy check#
- The DNS configuration detail page of a custom domain now shows the Proxy check section only when the domain requires a proxy check. Previously, the section always appeared alongside the SSL check section. Refer to Custom Domains for more details.
Free trials and database IP allowlist#
- New customers now start a free trial when they complete account setup or create their first organization. You no longer enter payment details during sign-up, and you're redirected to a Get started page after creating the organization instead of the projects list. A banner in the dashboard shows how many days are left in your trial, with a link to add your billing details. Refer to Sign Up for more details.
- The subscription section of the billing settings now shows a Trial badge next to the plan name while your organization is on a free trial, along with a title and subtitle that show when the trial ends or when billing starts. Refer to Manage Plans for more details.
- Upgrading your plan without a payment method on file now redirects you to add a payment method first. Refer to Manage Plans for more details.
- When your organization's free trial ends, the billing settings now let you keep your plan. If your organization has no payment method, the section shows an Add Payment Method button that takes you to add one. Otherwise, it shows a Keep [Plan Name] button. Refer to Manage Plans for more details.
- You can now restrict public access to an environment's database, or allow access only from specific IP addresses, from the new IP Allowlist section of the database settings. Refer to Database for more details.
Initial user removed from project creation#
- The project creation wizard no longer has an Initial user section. Previously, when you created a project without a template that supports Cloud login, you could set the email and password of the initial Medusa Admin user during creation. You can now just use "Login with Medusa Cloud" instead. Refer to Projects for the current project creation steps.
Usage credits and searchable branch picker#
- The Usage page now has a Credits section listing your organization's credits with their type, status, balance, and expiration, along with a Show expired toggle to include expired credits. Refer to Usage for more details.
- The flex charges chart on the Usage page now shows usage covered by credits as a stacked yellow segment, and per-metric charts show a yellow dashed line for the combined plan and credits allowance. When you view a single billing cycle, the usage table also breaks down each allowance into the portions from your plan and from credits. Refer to Usage for more details.
- The branch field in the Create Environment form is now a searchable list of your repository's branches. Branches already linked to another environment show that environment's name and can't be selected. Previously, the form showed an error banner after you picked a branch in use. Refer to Long-Lived Environments for more details.
- The Edit Linked Branch form in an environment's settings now uses the same searchable branch list instead of a text input, so you select a branch rather than type its name. Refer to Long-Lived Environments for more details.
