If you’re working with partners like Bolt, this update ensures your deployment history reflects that connection, reducing ambiguity and improving collaboration. It doesn’t change anything about how deployments work—just a small tweak to make things clearer and more informative. Let us know if you have...

To learn more about this and how to use it, check out our documentation. Continue reading...
