Recent improvements to the Cloudsmith web app

We’ve recently released a set of improvements across the Cloudsmith web app focused on logs, error messaging, and usability.

Logs and diagnostics

Local time zone view for logs: You can now select between UTC and your browser’s local time when viewing both Client Logs and Audit Logs, letting you skip the mental time zone math.

A dropdown on Client Logs showing the ability to change timezones.

Quick package navigation from Client Logs: We’ve added a hyperlink to the package name within Client Logs, allowing you to click directly to the package details page. This saves time when investigating package activity.

Independent scrolling of logs table and filters: On the Client Logs page, you can now scroll the filters panel independent of the logs table, a usability improvement for ensuring you can easily set your filters.

Clearer throttling errors: The application now rounds the wait time in a throttling error message to a whole number, removing overly precise fractions of a second to keep the message clear.

Working with artifacts

Improved Docker tag formatting: We’ve polished how Docker tags are displayed throughout the UI for better clarity.

Package Group expansion: We fixed a bug where the chevron icon to expand Package Groups was not working correctly for non-Docker images.

Removed case sensitivity for filters: Filters for key:value pairs are no longer case sensitive, making it easier and less error-prone to filter the packages view.

Architecture filter applied in a repo

Fixed package Copy/Move after Repo rename: Resolved an issue that prevented you from moving or copying packages to a repository if the repository's display name had recently been changed.

Detailed package error information: For packages that fail to synchronize, the UI now displays detailed information about the sync status failure, giving you better insight into the root cause.

Platform and administration

Service accounts visible in teams: Service accounts are now correctly listed and visible on the Teams management page.
