v4.11.0

New and Optimized Features

Pipelines

  • With this update, catalog Task versions are upgraded. Previous versions remain available and can continue to be used, but users are recommended to migrate to the new versions as early as possible. For detailed change descriptions, refer to the Task READMEs.

    Task Version Upgrades

    TaskVersion Upgrade Path
    Trivy Scannerv0.5 -> v0.6
    SonarQube Scannerv0.6 -> v0.7
  • With this update, the new nexus-upload Task is added to upload build artifacts to a Nexus raw repository. It supports direct upload, packaged upload, and checksum generation.

  • With this update, a new Skopeo Copy Task is added for image copy and promotion workflows across registries.

  • With this update, an artifact promotion solution based on Skopeo Copy is provided. It supports approval-gated promotion of one or more container images across registries and provides a reusable pattern for promoting artifacts from build or test environments to release environments. For details, see Promote Artifacts with Skopeo Copy.

  • With this update, dynamic form descriptors are enhanced with field-level documentation links (productDoc and external) through docLink. For configuration details, see Link Configuration.

  • With this update, dynamic forms support advanced fallback rendering for descriptor-only fields (for example label, description, tooltip, preview, docLink, and disabled) without requiring explicit component capability. For configuration details, see Metadata-only Configuration Without a Component.

  • With this update, Java/Python image build-scan-deploy pipelines add optional ca-bundle workspace support for private or self-signed CA registry scenarios.

  • With this update, trivy-scanner, cosign, and syft Tasks add ca-bundle workspace support for custom CA trust in registry access.

  • With this update, documentation is added for updating existing ACP Application resources by reusing the built-in run-script Task and kubectl-app-manager image, including runnable TaskRun/PipelineRun examples, validation, and rollback guidance. For details, see Update ACP Application with Existing Image and Run Script Task.

  • With this update, the Pipeline UI supports copying an existing Pipeline from the namespace Pipeline list or copying a Hub Pipeline into the current namespace, then editing and saving it as a new Pipeline.

  • With this update, the Pipeline Integration UI supports editing prefix and suffix transforms for Integration-bound image parameters. For OCI image scenarios, users can select an image repository address from an Integration and append a static value or Task result as the image tag.

  • With this update, PipelineRun and TaskRun pages add explicit archive-state indicators in list and detail views to make archived records easier to identify.
