Ascent 3.0.5

Release Date: August 27, 2026

This release delivers reliability and accuracy fixes across pipeline rules, log ingestion, and the Datadog forwarder, along with a set of smaller bug fixes across Flow, Observe, Vanguard, and Fleet.

Flow

Improvements

• Datadog forwarder payload cleanup: Duplicate severity fields carried over from log ingestion are no longer sent in the outbound Datadog payload, reducing payload noise. These fields remain stored and searchable within Ascent.

• Splunk metrics source extension update: The Splunk metrics source extension has been updated to a new version with revised configuration options.

• Log processing performance: Improved the efficiency of log parsing, reducing processing overhead under high load.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where the AI assistant could not draft pipeline rules.

• Fixed an issue where the AI assistant was unable to generate extract rules.

• Fixed an issue introduced in a prior release where log and metric source extensions with a configured namespace and application were incorrectly routed into the default namespace instead of their own data flow.

• Fixed an issue where a non-default forwarder did not appear in the pipeline graph view.

• Fixed a display issue in the pipeline rule preview where code rules incorrectly appended index markers to log keys. This was a visual issue only and did not affect the underlying log data.

• Fixed an issue where the regex pattern in an extract rule could not be edited after creation.

• Fixed an issue where log timestamps from OTLP sources were truncated to whole seconds, and resolved inconsistent handling when a log carried more than one timestamp field. Timestamp precision is now preserved, with a consistent, documented order for which timestamp field takes precedence.

• Fixed an issue where following a direct link while logged out returned the user to the homepage after login instead of the originally requested page.

Observe

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where the AI assistant created a saved query without prompting for review. A review step is now always presented before a query is saved.

Vanguard

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where creating a metric from a log through a SIEM rule failed or returned no result.

Fleet

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue that prevented creating API keys.
