Update to Supported Node.js Versions for the Coalesce CLI

Starting with the 7.24 release, we are updating the supported Node.js versions for the coa CLI to ensure you are working in a stable and secure environment.

What's Changing?

The coa CLI will now enforce the use of the following Node.js versions:

• 20

• 22

• 24

Support for Node.js version 18 will be removed.

Why We're Making This Change

We're removing support for version 18 because it reaches its end-of-life in April 2025. Support for version 24, a Long-Term Support (LTS) version, has been added to ensure continued stability and security.

Action Required

If you are running Node.js version 18, you must upgrade to a supported version to continue using the coa CLI. After updating to release 7.24, running the CLI with Node.js version 18 will cause the CLI to exit with the following error message:

Invalid node version 18 not supported

Updates

• Column lineage - We’ve improved the process by adding in app guidance and improving the visual indicators making it easier to see the propagation before commiting.

• Snowflake Authentication - The Problem Scanner now alerts you when Snowflake authentication is missing.

Bug Fixes

• Testing a Databricks SQL Warehouse connection will no longer fail with a "Missing token" error when a valid token has been entered.

• Service accounts with Environment Admin permissions for Snowflake environments will no longer receive an "Invalid Connection Information" error on API calls.

• Deploying a Storage Mapping change will no longer result in a "No schema found" error if the old schema or database was deleted directly from the data warehouse before deployment.

• Deleting a source from a column now works consistently when using a trackpad or a mouse.

• Sorting and filtering by Node Status or Stage Status on the deployment runs page will no longer revert or disappear on runs with a large number of objects.

• Deleting a Source Node and creating a new table Node with the same name and location in a single deployment will no longer replace the existing table and cause data loss.

We fixed a bug where the Node API endpoint would sometimes return a 500 error when using the ?detailsquery parameter.

• We fixed a bug where viewing column lineage would intermittently fail.

• Retrying a job from its point of failure now allows the job to run successfully.

New API Endpoints: User Management & Git Accounts

We're excited to announce the addition of User Management API and Git Account API endpoints.

User Management

Automate user provisioning workflows, implement bulk role assignments, and manage permissions across organizations, projects, and environments programmatically.

Review the User Management API documentation.

Git Accounts

Programmatically configure Git connections, manage account credentials, and maintain Git repository associations as part of your CI/CD pipelines.

Review the Git Accounts API documentation.

Updates

We’ve continued to improve the user experience by:

• Adding alphabetical sorting for Storage Locations and Environments.

• Sorting the Nodes Panel alphabetically while also considering the Storage Location name. For example, if both Nodes are named analytics_source, the one with the Storage Location of SRC would come before the one with TGT.

Packages

• Snowflake Deferred Merge Package v2.0.0 - Now correctly adds and removes deploy phases at the appropriate stages.

• Snowflake Iceberg Tables package v2.0.0 – Fixes issues with removing deploy phases at the right stages.

Bug Fixes

• When zoomed in, the Add Member button in the Project settings no longer disappears.

• The Get Nodes API endpoint no longer returns 500 errors when encountering malformed SQL in Nodes.

• Fixed an issue where switching branches during Workspace duplication would incorrectly retain the commit from the previously selected branch, causing Workspaces to load without Nodes or Jobs. The commit selection is now cleared when switching branches, allowing users to select a new commit from the current branch.

• The Add Sources modal no longer cuts off buttons at the bottom.

• The Get Nodes API endpoint no longer returns 500 errors when encountering malformed SQL in Nodes.

• Fixed an issue where switching branches during Workspace duplication would incorrectly retain the commit from the previously selected branch, causing Workspaces to load without Nodes or Jobs. Now that commit selection is cleared, users can choose a new commit from the branch.

New

We’ve enhanced the API so you can now create and manage your Projects using the /projects endpoint.

Benefits:

• Ensure consistency: Apply naming conventions and configuration standards across all Projects.

• Automate onboarding: Spin up new Projects for teams quickly.

• Integrate with CI/CD: Seamlessly include project creation as part of deployment pipelines and infrastructure-as-code.

Get Started

• Project API reference

Updates

We added alphabetical sorting to:

• Documentation

• Node type selector

• Add new Node

This means locating items faster and reducing scan time for large lists.

Bug Fixes

• Environment Reader roles have read access to the following API endpoints:

  • LIST Environments

  • GET Environments

  • Get Nodes

  • LIST Nodes

  • GET Job Status

  • GET Runs

  • LIST Runs

• Ref functions now validate inputs during plan rendering. Empty strings or undefined values now throw clear errors identifying problematic Nodes when using the Coalesce App.

• We fixed an error where users would get “Error installing package: failed to validate request body” when installing Nodes.

• The Problem Scanner now returns the alert "Configure key pair in User Credentials tab” for missing Snowflake Key Pair credentials.

• Fixed issue where data type changes to columns in Coalesce would not deploy when the target table contained unexpected columns in the data warehouse. Changes now deploy correctly.

Packages

External Data Package

• Removed deploy phase, enhanced external table handling, and added Copy Unload metadata table creation.

Materialized View

• Added deploy phase for Create/Cluster stages and removed it from Alter steps.

Incremental Loading

• Refined deploy phase usage by adding it where needed and removing it from inappropriate stages.

We fixed a bug where the Join tab contents would return after being completely deleted when clicking outside the Node.
