Release Notes
Portal 1.2
Switch Cloud Portal 1.2 brings a set of improvements focused on clarity, safety, and usability.
We’ve moved the CLI configuration for Compute’s shared application credentials to the official documentation for easier
access and consistency.
To reduce setup errors, S3 endpoints now include the full https:// scheme by default.
Finally, we’ve enhanced S3 deletion checks to protect your data - buckets with existing objects can no longer be deleted,
and service instances require all buckets to be removed before deletion.
Portal 1.1
Switch Cloud Portal 1.1 introduces a new way to preserve project data with project archiving, replacing permanent deletion with a read-only state. We’ve improved the clarity and layout of service resource tables, redesigned using card-based containers and contextual captions. The new dynamic pagination feature gives you control over how many items you see per page — from 10 to 100 — with your choice saved in the browser. New S3 service instances now include a default storage quota of 5 TiB, aligning with ongoing infrastructure upgrades. We’ve also enhanced our asynchronous operations, adding more robust retry handling for tasks like linking and unlinking services.
Portal 1.0

From simplified user and access management to audit logs for full transparency, this release is packed with features designed to make your management of the Switch Cloud possible.
And this is just the beginning — read on for all the details. We're excited to have you on board and look forward to growing together!
