August 2025 Wrap-Up: Miscellaneous Improvements

A collection of small but impactful improvements across the Keboola platform this month, from UI updates and component tweaks to API enhancements.

UI Updates

Expanded Support for Custom Save Descriptions

  • You can now add custom descriptions when saving configuration changes nearly everywhere (except modals). This makes it easier to track edits, understand context, and collaborate more effectively with your team.

Click Through to Configuration Version from Job Detail

  • You can now open the exact configuration version used in a job directly from the job detail page—making debugging and version tracking much easier.

Component Updates

keboola.ex-google-analytics-v4

  • Added a new control to row configuration to toggle the "Keep Empty Rows" setting. It was previously always set to true—now it’s configurable (default remains true).

keboola.ex-aws-s3

  • Now automatically skips S3 objects stored in Glacier Deep Archive (StorageClass=DEEP_ARCHIVE), which aren’t available for immediate access.

kds-team.app-generative-ai

  • Fixed a bug preventing use of GPT-5 models
  • Fixed an issue in the TestPrompt sync action
  • Added a reasoning level parameter for OpenAI models (e.g., o1, gpt-5) to fine-tune AI behavior.

kds-team.app-orchestration-trigger-queue-v2

  • We’ve updated the orchestration trigger (legacy component, predecessor to Conditional Flows) to optionally trigger on flow errors. The logic is disabled by default and must be manually configured, ensuring backward compatibility.

Flows

New Operator in Conditional Flows

We're adding support for the "Is one of" (Include) operator in Conditional Flows. This makes it easier to build flexible flow logic based on job statuses or metadata.

Platform & API Changes

Improved BigQuery Traceability

  • Storage jobs now include the branch_id in BigQuery query labels (query tags), helping with debugging and lineage tracking.

Project Update Endpoint Enhancements

  • Users with the can-update-project-settings permission can now update all project parameters via the project update API.
  • Added a new timezone parameter for BigQuery-based projects. If set immediately after project creation, the update may fail due to permission propagation delay. Just retry after a short wait.

While these updates may not have made big headlines, they're already live and designed to improve your day-to-day work. Noticed something off? Have ideas for what we should improve next? We’re listening—don’t hesitate to reach out.
