• Apps should now start up between 1-2s faster on average.
• Tables are more efficient when rendering large amounts of data.

Disabled Controls​

• This includes Text Inputs, Dropdowns, MultiSelects, RadioGroups, Checkboxes, Checkbox Groups, Button Groups, Rating components, and more.

Custom Tooltips​

• Every control can now also have a custom tooltip!

Git Integration​

• Retool supports version controlling and serializing apps to a git repo
• Retool also supports reading and recreating apps from a git repo
• This allows for designing pull-request flows for deploying apps from staging environments to production environments.
• To learn more, see the documentation.

Permissions Redesign​

Fixed and Misc Features​

Prettify the Database Editor​

Empty folders hidden for end-users​

• Your users of your apps only see the folders in Retool that have apps that they have access to.
• Developers still see empty folders (so you can add apps to empty folders!)

Noteworthy features and bugfixes​

• Retool apps now look nicer by default with better contrast.
• Containers are smaller by default, making them easier to create.
• Fixed: inline <style> tags in Text components behave more consistently
• Fixed: the Audit Logs now renders long context nicely.

UX Improvements​

• Reorder columns by dragging on the headers of the Table

• The column option editor is more compact and significantly easier to use

• We've added a new way to scroll through the list of queries you've made

Filter and search through Audit Logs

• Search and filter through the events by page, query, and date in your Audit Logs

• Coming soon: advanced filters by users, query properties, and more.

Free Table refresh and download buttons

• Tables now come with a refresh button for free! Use it to reload the query that the Table it's connected to.
• It also comes with a download button that exports the data as a csv file.

Image component

• To embed images into Retool, just use the Image component
• The button is also clickable; you configure it run queries, open other pages, just like a button!

Autocomplete Dropdowns

• There's now a .searchValue property on dropdowns that allow you to get the currently searched for term.
• This allows you creating autocomplete searchboxes. See below for an example of it in action!

Small, but notable features

• Retool now allows sharing Salesforce credentials between users.
• Tables will now auto-infer data types by default, so dates, numbers, and objects are rendered nicely to start off!
• Reorderable Lists now have a "labels" property, letting users now reorder lists of data with more human-friendly text in the list.
• Allow queries to delaying post-query run triggers. This is useful with datasources like Elasticsearch, or database connections to replicas that might have a small delay in propagation, as the delay lets the datasource catch up with a recent mutation made to the data.
• Retool now supports APIs that make use of the double-cookie submit pattern to protect against CSRF attacks.
• We've made it easier to find the search box for your apps to the home page, or use Ctrl+K or Command+K to open up the search!

Misc new features

• The Modal component can now be optionally configured to close when clicking outside the modal.
• The Timeline component can be configured to render its values as HTML.
• The default timeout on MSSQL queries has been increased to 10 minutes.
