# What's new > CloudBolt Platform updates --- Site [llms.txt](/llms.txt) --- ## September 2026 ### Connect AWS with Terraform Beta, enabled on request. Organizations that cannot use CloudFormation can configure the AWS management account with a CloudBolt-provided Terraform module, downloaded from the AWS connection form, and connect it with **Connect Terraform Deployment**. The option is off by default; contact CloudBolt Support to enable it for your organization. The module covers the management account only, so the CloudFormation StackSet remains the recommended path. See [AWS onboarding with Terraform](/docs/cbp/reference/aws-account-config/terraform-onboarding/). ### Non-billing connections When adding an Azure or GCP connection, choose **Non Billing Data** to read inventory, recommendations, and commitments without creating cost exports. ### Custom Columns For MSP parent organizations: the **Custom Metrics** page is now **Settings** > **Custom Columns**. Columns are defined once for the organization, ordered by drag and drop, and no longer live inside billing rulesets. Choose which sub-organizations receive each column. The formula editor adds string functions. ### Sub-Org Columns For MSP parent organizations: a new **Settings** > **Sub-Org Columns** matrix controls which FOCUS columns each sub-organization receives. ### FOCUS 1.2 fields FOCUS 1.2 columns, such as SKU meter, pricing currency, and billing account type, are available in Cost Explorer, reports, and exports. **Settings** > **Connections** now shows the FOCUS version each connection delivers. See [Cost Explorer](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/cost-explorer/). ### Fixed-percentage cost allocation Cost allocation rules can split shared cost by fixed percentages across two or more targets, totaling 100%. ### Scheduled report preview and test email Before scheduling a saved report for email delivery, preview each format and send yourself a test email. Reports too large for the chosen format arrive as CSV. See [Saved Reports](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/saved-reports/). ### Branded summary report exports Summary report PDF and PowerPoint exports have a new layout. On white-label domains, they use your brand color and logo. See [Summary Report](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/saved-reports/summary-report/). ### Background exports Exports from Cost Explorer and the Detail Report run in the background, so you can keep working and download the file when it is ready. Emailed reports include a secure download link. See [Export reports and data](/docs/cbp/how-to-guides/export-reports-and-data/). ### Report filters and editing Filter tags, virtual tags, and Kubernetes labels to see whether they are present, for example, to find untagged resources. Edit the name, description, and tags of any saved report type. ### Pending invite links Admins can copy a pending user's invite link from **User Management** to share it directly. See [Manage users](/docs/cbp/getting-started/manage-organizations-users-roles/users/). ## August 2026 ### White Label MSPs on a white-label domain can set their logo, brand color, and an optional dark-mode color under **Settings** > **White Label**, and publish their own Terms and Privacy Policy, which users accept at login. ### Billing ruleset drafts and rule preview For MSP parent organizations: new billing rulesets start as drafts. The **Rule preview** data set in Cost Explorer shows a draft's effect on real costs before you select **Promote to Live**. See [Billing Rulesets](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/settings/billing-rulesets/). ### Organizations {#organizations-august-2026} Root organizations can exclude billing data from the platform. The organization list is searchable, and sub-organization scope rules accept account values that do not yet have billing data. See [Organizations](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/settings/organizations/). ### Reporting Filters can match empty (N/A) values, the Detail Report adds a **Total** row, and saved reports can be renamed from the library. ## July 2026 ### Budgets Set hierarchical spending targets for your organizations and track budget-versus-actual performance, with rollup budgets, month-to-date proration, and variance tracking. Budgets appear in the sidebar and are managed under **Settings** > **Budgets**. See [Budgets](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/budgets/). ### GCP commitments, recommendations, and inventory GCP now has its own pages under **Commitments** (Committed Use Discount coverage, savings, waste, and performance), **Recommendations**, and **Resource Inventory**. See [Commitments](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/commitments/). ### Display currency Choose a display currency from the user menu to see cost pages converted with your configured exchange rates. Rates are managed under **Settings** > **Currency Conversion**. ### Cost allocation in Cost Explorer The **Cost Allocation** data set in Cost Explorer adds an **Allocated to** dimension, so you can view allocated cost alongside billed cost. See [Cost Allocation](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/settings/cost-allocation/). ### MFA reset Admins can reset a user's MFA from **User Management**, and users can reset their own from the user menu. Applies to database logins, not SSO. ### Anomalies The **Anomalies** page is back in the sidebar. See [Anomalies](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/anomalies/). ## June 2026 ### Connections page redesign The **Credentials** settings page is now **Connections**, redesigned around compact expandable rows with at-a-glance health, a **Test Connection** action, and per-account status for AWS Organizations. See [Manage connections](/docs/cbp/how-to-guides/manage-connections/). ### Organizations {#organizations-june-2026} Tenants are now referred to as **organizations** throughout the platform. Switch your active organization from the sidebar via **Switch Organization**, and manage the organization tree under **Settings** > **Organizations**. See [Switch Organization](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/switch-organization/). ### Simplified GCP onboarding GCP connections no longer use the BigQuery Data Transfer Service. The `bigquerydatatransfer` API is no longer required, and CloudBolt now runs the daily billing export itself. You can also onboard multiple billing accounts in a single session. See [Connect GCP](/docs/cbp/getting-started/connect-cloud-accounts/gcp/). ### Azure onboarding options New paths for partner scenarios: MPA billing accounts can export cost data to CloudBolt-hosted storage (no storage account or subscription required in your tenant); the read-role scope can be narrowed to a specific management group or the provisioning subscription; and indirect-CSP customers can onboard individual subscriptions. See [Connect Azure](/docs/cbp/getting-started/connect-cloud-accounts/azure/). ### AI Spend A new **AI Spend** dashboard tracks spending on AI and LLM services, including token volumes, cost per million tokens, and cache savings, by model and service. See [AI Spend](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/ai-spend/). ### API access Owners can create service accounts for programmatic access from the new **Settings** > **API Keys** page. The customer API is now versioned under `/api/v1`. See [API Keys](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/settings/api-keys/). ## May 2026 ### Reporting enhancements Saved reports gained folders and sharing controls, scheduled email delivery (daily, weekly, or monthly), and report exports to PDF, PowerPoint, and Excel. See [Saved Reports](/docs/cbp/navigating-the-platform/saved-reports/). ### AWS CloudFormation template updated The AWS onboarding CloudFormation template has been updated with the following changes: - **Legacy CUR support removed:** The template no longer creates Legacy Cost and Usage Reports. All deployments now create exports for FOCUS 1.0, FOCUS 1.2 Hourly, FOCUS 1.2 Daily, and Cost Optimization Recommendations. - **New prerequisites:** Cost Explorer, Cost Optimization Hub (org-wide, including member accounts), and the `AWSServiceRoleForBCMDataExports` service-linked role must be configured before deploying. See [Configure AWS accounts](/docs/cbp/getting-started/configure-cloud-accounts/aws/). - **New `TenantHostedRegion` parameter:** Replaces the individual OIDC configuration parameters. Select US or EU to match where your CloudBolt tenant is hosted. See [CloudFormation template parameters](/docs/cbp/reference/aws-account-config/cloudformation-template-parameters/). - **Simplified outputs:** Template outputs are now aligned with the CloudBolt Platform "Add AWS Credential" modal fields. See [CloudFormation template outputs](/docs/cbp/reference/aws-account-config/cloudformation-template-outputs/). - **`ReportToCreate` parameter removed:** Cost report type is no longer configurable. The four FOCUS and Cost Optimization exports are always created. - **`StandaloneAccount` renamed to `ManagementAccountOnly`:** If you previously deployed with `TargetDeploymentType=StandaloneAccount`, use `ManagementAccountOnly` on your next update. - **New `MemberAccountOnly` deployment mode:** For organizations without CloudFormation StackSets enabled, deploy the template in two passes: once in the management account, then once in each member account. See [Deploy without StackSets](/docs/cbp/reference/aws-account-config/advanced-aws-config/#deploy-without-stacksets). - **`CloudBoltStackExist` clarified:** Leave at `false` for stack updates. Only set `true` when deploying a second, separate CloudBolt stack in the same account. If you have an existing deployment using the previous template, refer to [Update an existing deployment](/docs/cbp/reference/aws-account-config/advanced-aws-config/#update-an-existing-deployment) for redeployment guidance.
