New Notification Routes and Connected Apps, New Kubernetes & Datadog Integrations, and Custom Mapping in Migrations

February 12, 2026

This week we significantly upgraded Monitors with Notification Routes, and Connected Apps. Integrations expanded with Datadog Agent, Argo CD, and direct OpenTelemetry from Kubernetes pods. On the query side, gcQL got stronger JSON handling and a new `collapse` pipe for session analysis. We also improved SDK, RUM, and Explore, and shipped several fixes across Logs and Traces to keep everything stable.
