Breaking Changes

All Editions: Required Metadata Migration for KV Store and Secrets

Kestra 1.1 introduces backend improvements to how KV Store and Secrets metadata are indexed and queried in the UI. To complete the upgrade, make sure to run dedicated metadata migration commands to rebuild the new indexes.

What changed:
The backend now indexes KV Store and Secrets metadata to optimize search. This replaces the previous logic that fetched all stored values directly from the storage backend.

Impact:
If the migration is not executed after upgrading to 1.1, the KV Store and Secrets pages in the UI will appear empty. This affects only the UI; flows and tasks will continue to function normally in the backend even without the migration.

Migration:
Run the following commands once after upgrading to version 1.1.0 (or later): 

/app/kestra migrate metadata kv
/app/kestra migrate metadata secrets

For Docker Compose deployments, replace the server standalone --worker-thread=128 startup command with the migration commands as follows: 

kestra:
    image: registry.kestra.io/docker/kestra:latest
    commands:
        - /app/kestra migrate metadata kv
        - /app/kestra migrate metadata secrets

After the migration completes, revert to the standard startup command to run the server, e.g. server standalone --worker-thread=128.

For Kubernetes deployments, create a one-time pod to run the same migration commands before restarting your regular Kestra server pods.

Note:
Running the migration after the upgrade is safe and will restore the missing UI data immediately.

Enterprise Edition: Task Runs UI Page Removed

The Task Runs page has been removed from the Enterprise Edition UI.

Reason for removal:

  • The page presented confusing granularity (task-level runs displayed on execution-level detail pages)
  • Filters were incomplete, and performance degraded when handling large datasets
  • The feature was only available on the Kafka & Elasticsearch backend, causing confusion among other customers
  • Customer interviews confirmed the page was not being actively used.

Impact:

  • No replacement is required, as all relevant execution and task run details remain accessible through the Execution detail view.
  • If you previously accessed Task Runs, use the Executions page and drill down into individual task runs through Gantt and Logs views for task-level information.

All Editions: Webhook Execution API Return Type Changed

The return type of the Webhook Execution API endpoint has been updated from a typed response to a generic response to support broader use cases and improve extensibility.

What changed: The API method previously returned a strongly typed WebhookResponse object. It now returns a generic HTTP response body (HttpResponse<?>).

Impact: Any custom integrations, SDK consumers, or extensions that previously relied on the WebhookResponse type in the response body will need to adjust their handling logic:

  • Direct access to WebhookResponse methods or fields will no longer compile.
  • You must handle the response body dynamically and verify its type at runtime if necessary.

Migration:

  • Treat the HTTP response body as a generic object.
  • Add runtime type checks before casting if your code depends on specific response fields.
  • Update any logic that assumes a fixed WebhookResponse structure.

This change ensures greater flexibility in future webhook response handling but requires updates to any consuming code that previously depended on a fixed response type.

All Editions: New prefill Property for Inputs

A new prefill property has been added to input definitions to let users start with an initial value that can be cleared or set to null when the input is not required.

What changed:
Inputs can now define a prefill value, which works like an editable default. Unlike defaults, a prefill value does not persist if the user removes it. This allows workflows to support optional inputs that start with a suggestion but can still be reset to null at runtime.

Impact:
While not a breaking change, this update clarifies how required, defaults, and prefill behave together:

  • prefill and defaults cannot be used on the same input.
  • Use prefill when required: false and the user should be able to clear the value.
  • Use defaults when required: true or when the value must always have a non-null default.
  • If defaults is used with required: false, the value will still reset to the default when cleared, which may not be desired; use prefill rather than defaults for those scenarios.

Example: 

inputs:
  - id: nullable_string_with_prefilled_default
    type: STRING
    prefill: "This is a prefilled value you can remove (set to null if needed)"
    required: false

Migration: No migration is required. For optional inputs that previously used defaults but need to allow clearing or null values, switch to using prefill.

All Editions: ForEachItem Iteration Starts at 0

ForEachItem now starts iteration at 0 instead of 1, aligning its behavior with ForEach.

What changed:
Previously, ForEachItem iteration indices began at 1. This has been updated to start at 0 for consistency across iteration constructs.

Impact:
If your flow references {{taskrun.iteration}} inside a ForEachItem, note that the first iteration now returns 0 instead of 1.

Migration:

  • Review any logic, conditions, or expressions that depend on the iteration index.
  • Adjust Pebble expressions that assume a 1-based index.
