Agate 1.2.0
A sidebar grouped by what things are, Home, Settings as a space of its own, one search that finds sites, equipment, pages and settings by name, and one list of what needs a decision. Every address stays the same, so bookmarks and links keep working. No data changes: Agate 1.1.1 upgrades by swapping the image.
Release notesReleased October 5, 2026All releases
New
- The sidebar is grouped by what things are: Home, then Places (sites, modular buildings, storerooms), Equipment (monitoring, all equipment, battery backups, software and support), Work (outages, projects, cases and repairs) and Insight (reports, E-Rate). See Finding your way.
- Settings is its own space at the foot of the sidebar, with six groups: People and access, Inventory data, Monitoring, Reports and notices, System, and Security. The pages within a group are tabs, and Back to the console returns to the main sidebar.
- Press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows) to find any site, switch, access point, page or setting by name, or to run a command. The header’s search box opens the same menu.
- Needs a decision gathers everything waiting on you in one list, oldest first: access points ExtremeCloud IQ lists that no record matches, devices a find turned up, software with no approved version, disposal orders waiting for your approval, loss reports and project changes. Each line opens the place where it is decided, and Home shows how many are waiting.
Improved
- Home, formerly Today, leads with four answers: open outages, what is answering Cenovel, what needs a decision, and what falls due in the next 90 days.
- Monitoring’s daily views (Overview, Needs a decision and Runs) are under Monitoring. Its configuration is Settings › Monitoring, with tabs Credentials, Networks, Schedule and Advanced.
- Pages that hold more than one view show them as tabs along the top, in the same look everywhere.
- Collapsing and expanding the sidebar is one smooth motion: icons stay in place and labels fade. With reduced motion it switches at once.
- Battery backups has its own place in the sidebar, under Equipment.
- Counts and audits is in the sidebar for everyone who can see All equipment.
- Home’s Due in 90 days also counts battery services and E-Rate deadlines, and opens the one that falls due first.
- In Modular buildings, each asset in a building opens its own drawer, with a way back to the building.
- The demo’s morning report uses the same wording as the console: place and room first, then the device and what happened.
Fixed
- In-app updates keep answering after a refused request. A refusal is explained and never stops the next request.
- A newly installed appliance refuses an update bundle older than the release it runs.
- On a slow host the appliance waits longer for the console to settle after an update, and the wait can be set.
Upgrade notes
- Some places have new names: Today is Home; Analytics is Reports, where Estate is Owned and Work is Work trends; Monitoring › Access is Settings › Monitoring › Credentials; and in Settings, Asset tags is Tag numbering and Vendors is Manufacturers.
- No address changed. Saved views, scheduled report links, morning report links and bookmarks open the same pages as before, and page permissions are unchanged.
- No data changes: an instance on Agate 1.1.1 upgrades by swapping the image, and goes back the same way.
