2026.1.0 to 2026.1.1
1. Preferences: clientHideFloatingActionButton removed
What changed
The clientHideFloatingActionButton preference has been removed from the
available preferences.
Why it matters
Projects must no longer rely on clientHideFloatingActionButton as a
configurable preference.
Recommended actions
Remove references to clientHideFloatingActionButton from project preferences,
configuration documentation, and custom upgrade notes.
If a project depended on hiding the Floating Action Button, review whether this
behavior is still required. If it is required for accessibility-related reasons,
validate the behavior with enableA11y enabled for the affected users.
The enableA11y UserPreference is not a direct replacement for
clientHideFloatingActionButton. It controls accessibility-related behavior and
can affect the visibility of the Floating Action Button only as part of that
accessibility behavior.
2. Authentication: Configure the JWKS endpoint URL for GitLab manually
What changed
In version 2026.1.1, automatic determination of the JWKS endpoint URL does not work for GitLab when using the OAuth2 Authorization Code Flow.
Why it matters
GitLab-based authentication using the OAuth2 Authorization Code Flow cannot retrieve the signing keys automatically when the JWKS endpoint URL is not configured. Token validation may therefore fail.
Recommended actions
For every GitLab OAuth2 Authorization Code Flow alias configuration, enter the JWKS endpoint URL manually and verify that the configured URL is reachable.
Information
This issue is fixed in version 2026.1.2. From this version onward, the JWKS endpoint URL is determined automatically for GitLab.
