[github.com/gardener/dashboard:1.83.0]

⚠️ Breaking Changes

• [OPERATOR] The backend now requires an websocketAllowedOrigins configuration to protect the Socket.IO server from cross-site requests

  • To allow all origins, you may set the value to * (not recommended)
  • When deploying with the Gardener operator, this setting is automatically configured based on the public ingress hosts
  • For manual deployments, you must provide the correct values in the Helm chart configuration by @grolu [#2588]

• [USER] Simplified DNS Credential Handling:

  • DNS credentials no longer require a SecretBinding or CredentialsBinding to work with the Gardener Dashboard. The Dashboard now relies on a new label, dashboard.gardener.cloud/dnsProviderType: <provider-type>, to identify the DNS provider type. All Secret resources containing this label will appear as DNS credentials in the Dashboard.
  • For backward compatibility, Secrets previously created through the Dashboard — which have the label provider.shoot.gardener.cloud/<provider-type> set by Gardener — will continue to be recognized as DNS credentials. This label now serves as a fallback for existing DNS Secrets.
  • For new DNS credentials, only a Secret resource is created (no additional CredentialsBinding resource). You may safely clean up any existing CredentialsBinding or SecretBinding resources related to DNS credentials, as they are no longer required. by @grolu [#2632]

• [DEVELOPER] The dashboard configuration now requires a websocketAllowedOrigins setting. Without it, the dashboard will not start. See the local development setup documentation for more details. by @grolu [#2588]

✨ New Features

• [OPERATOR] Improved Custom Asset Handling
  • You no longer need to provide the full asset set — individual icons can now be overridden as needed
  • Improved caching behavior by applying correct cache-control headers, preventing outdated assets from being served by @grolu [#2687]
• [USER] Add providerTemplate for stackit clusters by @nschad [#2686]
