2.36.2 Performance, Permissions Improvements, and more

Performance Improvements

• We've optimized filtering through the audit logs that Retool collects so that you can now efficiently trawl through all the queries that your users have run in Retool.
• Apps should now start up between 1-2s faster on average.
• Tables are more efficient when rendering large amounts of data.

Disabled Controls

• Every control in Retool now can be dynamically disabled
• This includes Text Inputs, Dropdowns, MultiSelects, RadioGroups, Checkboxes, Checkbox Groups, Button Groups, Rating components, and more.

Custom Tooltips

• Every control can now also have a custom tooltip!

Git Integration

• Retool supports version controlling and serializing apps to a git repo
• Retool also supports reading and recreating apps from a git repo
• This allows for designing pull-request flows for deploying apps from staging environments to production environments.
• To learn more, see the documentation.

Permissions Redesign

• The entire UI for interacting with users, groups, and apps have been modified for more clarity.

Fixed and Misc Features

• Components in modals will render with the correct sizes in Firefox.
• We've added a Date Time column type to Tables.
• Deleting components will automatically trigger a save point in Retool.
• You can now trigger queries when checkboxes are switched on and off.
• MongoDB validations for field, limit, and skip have been fixed.
• Retool apps now live on /apps instead of /presentation
• The Retool autocomplete now triggers in more sensible scenarios
• Retool folders are now sorted alphabetically
