Important Changes Coming

by Coalesce
Action Required

On September 5, 2024, Coalesce will begin enabling two upgrades for all organizations.

We encourage you to prepare for the changes by:

  • Upgrade the CLI to the latest version.

  • Have your organization's administrators enable the Git Repo Format Upgrade before the mandatory deadline.

  • Optionally, contact support to enable the RBAC migration early.

  • Review existing roles and understand the permissions they will have under the new system.

By preparing for these changes early, you can avoid unintended consequences, such as being unable to make commits until the upgrade is complete.

We encourage you to review our documentation for more details:

Upgrade Your Git Repo

by Coalesce
Action Required

On September 5, 2024, Coalesce will enable the Git Repo Format Upgrade . After September 5, 2024, all Git repos will be automatically updated.

What is the Git Repo Format Upgrade?

We have updated the way files are committed into Git. Previously it was split into a data.yml and the specific nodes.yml files. Now you can see the changes for:

  • Node Types

  • Environment Mappings

  • Subgraphs

  • Jobs

  • Macros

  • Packages

The upgrade is required for Packages and CLI use.

How to Opt-In

Organization Administrators can turn it on for the whole organization. Go to Org Settings > Preferences and Enable Git Repository Format Update. Once enabled, all Workspace users will be prompted to switch to the new format. They won't be able to make commits until they switch to the new format.

  • Users will be notified the upgrade is available, but won't be able to upgrade.

  • Previously committed metadata can still be deployed after the upgrade.

Packages

You must be using the new Git Repo Format Upgrade to use Coalesce Packages.

CLI

If you use the CLI and HAVE NOT upgraded to the new Git Repo Format, you have until September 5, 2024 to upgrade your CLI. After September 5, 2024, the Git Repo Format Upgrade will be turned on for all Coalesce organizations and any CLI versions below 7.0.18 won't be compatible with Coalesce versions 7.2.x and above.

If you have upgraded to the new Git Repo Format and use the Coalesce CLI, please upgrade your CLI version to prevent interruptions in workflow.
