Changelog

The new Button column type in the Table component is now available. When enabled, column values render as a button. This allows you to add buttons to trigger actions, queries, and open links using a button.

The Phone Number Input component for web apps is now available. It automatically formats phone numbers, includes a country selector with international dialing code, and can perform validation based on the selected country. The default country is derived from the user's IP address.

Configuring Resources in Retool can require handling sensitive values, e.g., database passwords or API keys. Starting in Self-hosted Retool 3.20 and later, you can store and retrieve secrets from Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Secrets Manager.

A new version of the Key Value component is available to cloud instances and self-hosted instances on version 3.22 or later. It contains a number of improvements over the previous component:

• Automatically reflects changes whenever the data source changes.
• Added support for event handlers.
• Various styling improvements.

Retool organization users on the Business or Enterprise plan have the option to apply custom themes on a per-app basis. Previously, app themes were only available globally and required administrator access. App-level themes apply only to the current app. If your organization does not have access to org-level themes, you can still set a custom app theme.

We've also added some expanded typography settings. You can set custom typefaces and font sizes. Not all custom typefaces may work with the line heights used in Retool apps (generally 1em-1.5em).

You can now search for all code within a Retool app, from resource queries and component properties to preloaded JavaScript and CSS. Code search can instantly search for case or exact word matches, and supports regular expressions for fine-tuned searches.

Resources now have additional permission levels. This make it easier to build apps with sensitive data in a secured way.

• The Use permission grants users permission run queries on a given resource. This means administrators can now control access to sensitive resources without needing to control access to different apps.
• For Retool organizations on the Enterprise plan, resource permissions can also be granted at the environment level.

A visually refreshed component library is currently available as an opt-in beta for cloud-hosted organizations. It contains minor style changes to many components, such as:

• An updated color palette.
• Changes to the active and hover state appearance for buttons and inputs.
• Removing borders on input attachments and buttons.
• Fixing inconsistencies with component spacing, font weight, border radius, etc.
• A new look for the Tab and Navigation components.

Any style overrides you've made will still be retained.

You can create custom URLs for web apps to make them more discoverable and easier to share with end users. With a custom URL set, end users can access apps at {domain}/app/{custom-url} or {domain}/p/{custom-url} if it's a public app.

We're releasing a new wave of Retool platform capabilities to provide greater flexibility and governance over how you organize your teams, secure your data, delegate permissions, and more.

We're going even further on foundational platform features (SSO, RBAC, environments, Source Control, audit logs, and multiple hosting options), adding:

• Spaces: Independent workspaces for teams to manage their own apps, permissions, resources, connections, and git repos—all while sharing core infrastructure with other teams.
• Platform APIs Programmatically manage the Retool platform with robust API endpoints to manage workspaces, provision users, assign permissions, organize apps, and more.
• Extended permissions: Grant data-level access permissions for resources in each environment, ensuring that applications built in Retool are secure by default
• Orchestrated governance: Create automated workflows and alerts that trigger whenever users are created, sign up, request access, and more.
