What's Changed
As usual for every release, there have been numerous translations, bug fixes, and documentation improvements.
The big features for this release are improvements for self-hosters.
- SAML requests initiated by an Identity Provider now work. For example, this allows you to use a SAML configuration to directly log in to Grist from the Your Apps dashboard in Google Workspace.
- SQLite has support for more robust connections that reduce the possibility of database corruption. New
GRIST_SQLITE_MODE=walorGRIST_SQLITE_MODE=syncenvironment variables are now available to reduce this risk. - When using PostgreSQL for the home database, a recurring source of trouble has been slowness caused by its just-in-time compiler. Grist now unconditionally disables JIT compilation, removing the need for self-hosters to disable it themselves.
- For Grist Enterprise self-hosters, the Grist Admin panel has acquired extra controls for managing users, documents, workspaces, and organisations.
