Chef Release Announcements
1

We are delighted to announce the availability of version 20200831163517 of Chef Automate 2.

New Features

  • Moving Day: The Chef Automate documentation has a new URL -- docs.chef.io/automate -- and the same design as the rest of our Chef documentation. You can still make pull requests for documentation changes in the Chef Automate repository, but the documentation directory has changed to github.com/chef/automate/components/docs-chef-io.
  • FYI: Lightweight Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Chef Habitat Builder is now here! Learn more about RBAC implementation. (#4269)

Improvements

  • Sunshine: See public packages under a public origin for Chef Habitat Builder with no browser-based authentication required. (#4269)
  • Expanded Horizons: Chef Infra Server included with Chef Automate now supports a wider range of TLS certificates when configured to send data collector data to an external Chef Automate server. (#4279)

Bug Fixes

  • New Location: data-feed-service moved from port 14001 to 10501 to be within our recommended ephemeral port range. (#4171)
