0.56.0

Features

The new Full Fidelity line plot in W&B Experiments enhances the visibility of training metrics by aggregating all data along the x-axis, displaying the minimum, maximum, and average values within each bucket, allowing users to easily spot outliers and zoom into high-fidelity details without downsampling loss. Learn more in our documentation.

The 0.56.0 release also includes these capabilities:

• You can now use cross-cloud storage buckets for team-level BYOB (secure storage connector) in Dedicated Cloud and Self-managed instances. For example, in a W&B instance on AWS, you can now configure Azure Blob Storage or Google Cloud Storage for team-level BYOB, and so on for each cross-cloud combination.
• In the same vein, you can now use S3-compatible storage buckets like MinIO for team-level BYOB (secure storage connector) in Dedicated Cloud and Self-managed instances. For example, in a W&B instance on GCP, you can configure a MinIO bucket hosted in cloud or on-prem for team-level BYOB.
• Admins can now automate full deletion of users in their Dedicated Cloud or Self-managed instances using the SCIM API’s DELETE User endpoint. The user deactivation operation has been reimplemented using the PATCH User endpoint, along with the introduction of user reactivation operation.
• If you use the SCIM API, you will also see a couple of minor improvements:
  • The API now has a more pertinent error message in case of authentication failures.
  • Relevant endpoints now return the full name of a user in the SCIM User object if it’s available.

Fixes

• The fix resolves an issue where deleting a search term from a runset in a report could delete the panel or cause the report to crash by ensuring proper handling of selected text during copy/paste operations.
• The fix addresses a problem with indenting bulleted items in reports, which was caused by an upgrade of slate and an additional check in the normalization process for elements.
• The fix resolves an issue where text could not be selected from a panel when the report was in edit mode.
• The fix addresses an issue where copy-pasting an entire panel grid in a Report using command-c was broken.
• The fix resolves an issue where report sharing with a magic link was broken when a team had the Hide this team from all non-members setting enabled.
• The fix introduces proper handling for restricted projects by allowing only explicitly invited users to access them, and implementing permissions based on project members and team roles.
• The fix allows instance admins to write to their own named workspaces, read other personal and shared workspaces, and write to shared views in private and public projects.
• The fix resolves an issue where the report would crash when trying to edit filters due to an out-of-bounds filter index caused by skipping non-individual filters while keeping the index count incremental.
• The fix addresses an issue where unselecting a runset caused media panels to crash in a report by ensuring only runs in enabled runsets are returned.
• The fix resolves an issue where the parameter importance panel crashes on initial load due to a violation of hooks error caused by a change in the order of hooks.
• The fix prevents chart data from being reloaded when scrolling down and then back up in small workspaces, enhancing performance and eliminating the feeling of slowness.
