Changelog notifications in the Contentful UI

We know that keeping track of product changes and improvements is important to our customers, and we’ve been working over the past few months in the quality and reliability of changelog updates (like this one!).

Today, we’re adding an update notification badge to the Contentful UI so you can easily stay up to date as we make changes. The badge is a small red dot in the top left corner of the web app, Compose, and Launch, and will appear whenever there’s a new entry in the changelog.

Changelog notification and updates

The same badge will appear on the “What’s new?” link in the navigation panel, and you can click on it for a quick preview of the latest updates in changelog. This way you can be aware of things that are changing and dig deeper if you’re interested, but won’t have to leave your workflow if you’re not.
