• Zoom Room Status datasources no longer display gaps or empty data.

LM Logs

Tracing

Enhancements

• To reduce storage space and query processing time, we now store only resource tags which are used for resource reconciliation, instead of all resource tags.

Looking Ahead

In this section, you will find announcements about upcoming beta features, updates about ongoing beta features, and information about the end-of-life of existing features.

New UI Preview for Resources and Reports

We are in the process of rolling out a new user experience (UX) for the Resources and Reports pages in your LogicMonitor portal. The new UX is designed to streamline workflows, reduce clicks, and includes new features. Once released, you can enable the new UX using a toggle that is available on each of the pages. This New UI Preview toggle allows you to switch between the current and new versions of the user interface.

We will maintain this preview toggle while we monitor usage and gather your feedback. We will provide more information before we remove the toggle and transition completely to the new UX.
