Introducing Teams for Access Control

We’ve added the ability to create Teams in Dash0, making it easier to manage permissions and share assets across groups of users.

What’s New

  • 👥 Team Management: Maintaining Teams within your organization.
  • User Management: Add or remove users from Teams.
  • 📊 Asset Sharing: Share Dashboards and Views with entire Teams, roles or individual users.
  • 🔎 Visibility Controls: Check which assets are shared with Teams and Users directly in the sharing sidebar.

🔑 Simplified Collaboration: Manage access once per Team instead of assigning permissions user by user.

This is the first step in bringing granular Access Control to Dash0, with more granular permissions coming soon.

The first GCP-based European region is here!

We just opened to everybody the first Dash0 region based on GCP, based in the Netherlands.

In terms of feature support, it is 100% equivalent to the AWS-based regions.

By the way, you can also onboard to this GCP region directly from the GCP Marketplace.

New Synthetic Monitoring Locations

We’ve expanded our global synthetic monitoring network with three new locations, giving you more flexibility and accuracy when testing your applications worldwide.

What’s New

  • 🇬🇧 London (UK) – monitor performance closer to your users in the United Kingdom.
  • 🇩🇪 Frankfurt (DE) – gain insight into response times within central Europe.
  • 🇺🇸 North Virginia (US) – measure latency from one of the key internet hubs in the United States.

Why This Matters

Synthetic monitoring from more regions helps you better understand your application’s performance where your users are. With these additions, you can pinpoint regional bottlenecks, improve reliability, and deliver faster digital experiences.

Manage views and check rules with the Dash0 Terraform provider

Expand your observability infrastructure as code capabilities with declarative management of check rules and custom views.

The latest version of the Dash0 Terraform Provider introduces the ability to manage check rules and views directly through Terraform, enabling you to deploy monitoring resources as code. You can now define alerting rules and custom views declaratively within your Terraform configurations. The provider automatically synchronizes these resources with your Dash0 organization, simplifying setup and maintenance of observability resources through infrastructure as code. This enhancement streamlines monitoring workflows and improves automation for users managing multiple environments.

Manage synthetic checks with the Dash0 Kubernetes Operator

The Dash0 operator now supports managing synthetic checks as infrastructure as code.

We recently released synthetic monitoring and now you can also manage your synthetic checks declaratively with the Dash0 operator.

The latest version of the operator introduces the ability to manage Dash0 synthetic monitoring checks directly through Kubernetes, enabling you to deploy checks as code. You can now define synthetic monitoring checks declaratively within a Kubernetes cluster. The operator automatically synchronizes these resources with your Dash0 organization, simplifying setup and maintenance of synthetic checks through infrastructure as code. This enhancement streamlines monitoring workflows and improves automation for users managing multiple environments.

Improved Alert Routing

Dash0 now supports routing of failed check notifications via labels to Slack, Email, and all of our other notification channels.

This allows you to leverage standardized key/value pairs to simplify your notification configuration.

For example, you can route all failed checks labeled with priority=p1 to your on-call solution, and those with priority=p2 and priority=p3 to Slack.

As labels, you can use hard-coded labels existing on check rules, as well as dynamic attributes coming from the execution of the check rule queries.

Synthetic Monitoring

Synthetic monitoring generates continuous simulated traffic from multiple locations, letting you catch problems before anyone opens a support ticket.

What's New

One-Click Setup: Create synthetic checks by adding your URL. Fully operational in under 60 seconds—no scripts or configuration files required.

Multi-Location Testing: Run checks from multiple global locations with one-click expansion. Monitor how your services perform for users from Frankfurt, Oregon, Melbourne, and soon more.

Deep Tracing Integration: Every span in every trace shows if it was triggered by a synthetic check and which one. Filter synthetic traffic during outages to focus on real user impact, or verify which operations are covered by synthetic monitoring. And, of course, it works with Triage as well.

Built-in Essentials: Uptime monitoring and SSL certificate expiration alerts included out of the box.

Infrastructure as Code: Already supported in the Dash0 Terraform Provider, and soon in the Dash0 Operator for Kubernetes as well!

Introducing the new organization settings

We've completely redesigned Organization Settings to make managing your workspace simpler, faster, and more intuitive.

We've completely redesigned Organization Settings to make managing your organization simpler, faster, and more intuitive. The new experience is streamlined, easier to navigate, and organized to help you find what you need without unnecessary clutter.

What's New

  • Deep-Linkable Pages: Every settings section now has its own unique URL. Easily share direct links with teammates or bookmark frequently visited pages. This also makes support far more efficient, allowing you to send or receive an exact link to the relevant page.
  • Revamped Members Section:
    • Search & Sort: Quickly find members and sort the list by role, name, or status.
    • Simplified Layout: We've decluttered the interface and improved the visual hierarchy for faster scanning.
  • Improved General Section:
    • Streamlined Design: Enjoy faster navigation and easier comprehension.
    • Industrial-Standard Danger Zone: A clear, well-marked area for critical actions like deletions, ensuring both safety and clarity when performing irreversible actions.

Why This Matters

Managing your organization's settings should be effortless. These changes bring tangible benefits:

  • Faster Collaboration: Deep links let you guide teammates straight to the right settings without manual navigation.
  • Increased Clarity: Better organization and reduced clutter mean less mental effort to make changes.
  • Enhanced Safety: The new Danger Zone follows industry best practices to help prevent mistakes.

End-to-End AWS Tracing with CloudWatch Transaction Search (Public Beta)

Get complete visibility into your AWS workloads with automatic span collection from fully managed services like API Gateway, Lambda, SNS, SQS and many more. No code changes required—just enable the integration and see the full journey your requests take through AWS infrastructure.

Traditional OpenTelemetry instrumentation captures only what happens inside your code, while AWS X-Ray also records what happens after the call reaches AWS services.

Our CloudWatch Transaction Search integration bridges that gap by stitching the spans together so you get one seamless, end-to-end trace of every request, from the very first hop to the final response. It works by streaming every X-Ray span into an aws/spans log group as JSON, which we then make OpenTelemetry compliant in our ingestion pipeline.

That is, you keep the full X-Ray data while paying CloudWatch-Logs prices and nothing extra for X-Ray storage.

What's New

Automatic AWS Service Span Collection: Seamlessly captures tracing data from API Gateway, Lambda service, SNS/SQS messaging, as well all other AWS services emitting X-Ray data, and correlates it with your existing OpenTelemetry or X-Ray traces.

True End-to-End Latency: See the complete user experience from first AWS service interaction to final response, not just application execution time.

Zero-Code Integration: Works with your existing setup—no application changes required.

Join the Public Beta

CloudWatch Transaction Search integration is now available in public beta. Experience complete AWS observability while we continue refining the feature based on your feedback.

Share your custom views with team members

We now allow users to share custom views across the organization.

Building on our recently launched custom views feature, we're excited to introduce view sharing capabilities that enable seamless collaboration across your team.

Screenshot of the sharing dialog in Dash0

New granular permissions let you share views with view-only or edit permissions across different user roles. Simple sharing UI, clear permission overviews, and collaborative workflows for debugging, monitoring, and standardizing observability across teams.
