Database linking, live activity notifications, and a cleaner dashboard

databasesobservabilityusability

This release is about connection and clarity: wiring a database into your project without copying secrets around, keeping an eye on what you’ve kicked off, and moving through the platform with less hunting.

Database linking

You can now link a database directly to a project. Once linked, the database’s connection details are surfaced automatically as read-only environment variables, so your app can reach its database without you copying credentials by hand or keeping them in sync. To keep things safe, the SALUS_ prefix is reserved and blocked on your own variables, so a linked database’s details can never collide with — or be shadowed by — something you’ve set.

We also polished the linking experience end to end, with refreshed Link Database dialogs that make wiring things up straightforward.

Live activity notifications

A new activity dropdown in the header keeps track of the work you’ve started in your current session — the pipelines you run and the databases you create — with live status as it happens: preparing, building, and deploying for pipelines; provisioning through to active for databases. Each item carries a workspace → project → environment breadcrumb and a quick link straight back to it, so you always know where something is and can jump right to it.

It keeps the most recent items and lets you clear out the ones that have finished, so the list stays focused on what’s actually in flight. It’s live in production now.

Deployment-events dashboard

A new deployment-events dashboard surfaces deployment activity in one place, giving your team a clear, at-a-glance view of what’s been shipping.

A new Deployment Frequency panel surfaces how often you’re shipping, so you can see your delivery cadence at a glance. It’s a simple, honest signal of momentum — and a useful input when you’re tracking how your team’s flow changes over time.

Easier to navigate

We reorganised the navigation bar into logical groups — workspace, databases, and settings, alongside a dedicated insights group — so the thing you’re looking for is where you’d expect it. We also tidied up the dashboard overview and added a support email and a documentation link to the profile dropdown, so help is never more than a click away.


As always, these changes are live now and require no action on your part. We’d love to hear what you think. Your feedback shapes what we build next.
