Edit Input buttons in Configuration Mode

November 20th, 2025 | Changelog

This release added several improvements, including Input configuration to Configuration Mode, better app behavior when merging a branch, better UI for the Build Configuration page, better error messaging, and the capacity to browse DAM assets.

It also addressed several issues, including those affecting Configuration Mode data panels, the Conflict Resolution code editor, and filters in Inboxes.

Features & Improvements#

  • You can now edit your Input configuration using Configuration Mode.
    • Turning Configuration Mode on in an editing interface will show purple Edit buttons next to each Input, which will open the Edit Input data panel.
    • You can use the Edit Input data panel to update the configuration across several levels of the configuration cascade and review where an input is already configured.
    • Any configuration updated using Configuration Mode will immediately change the Input in your editing interface, unless superseded by a more specific configuration.
  • CloudCannon now returns you to your Site Browser after merging and deleting a branch, rather than showing an error.
  • Better UI for the Initial Site Settings prompt on the Build Configuration page under Site Settings.
  • Better UI for the Needs Attention prompt on the Site Dashboard.
  • Removed the Needs Attention warning when two or more Collections have the same path.
  • Added error messaging in the Needs Attention prompt on your Site Dashboard when you have a parsing issue in your CloudCannon Configuration File.
  • You can no longer see Inboxes in your Site Navigation if you do not have permission to use them.
  • You can now browse through your DAM assets using the Browse tab on your DAM page, through the Assets page under Org Settings.
  • You can now configure _inputs.$ to add comments and documentation links to the top-level object or array in a data file.
  • Improved the performance of the File Input upload browser.
