Grafana Labs is now a GitHub secret scanning partner

GitHub secret scanning protects users by searching repositories for known types of secrets. By identifying and flagging these secrets, our scans help prevent data leaks and fraud.

We have partnered with Grafana Labs to scan for their tokens and help secure our mutual users on public repositories. Grafana tokens allow users to manage all resources within Grafana installations, and Grafana Cloud tokens can be used to authorize data ingestion requests and to manage the lifecycle of stacks. GitHub will forward access tokens found in public repositories to Grafana Labs, and they will automatically revoke the token and notify affected customers. You can read more information about Grafana's various tokens below:

GitHub Advanced Security customers can also scan for Grafana tokens and block them from entering their private and public repositories with push protection.

GitHub Enterprises and Organzations can now join a private beta to try our new expandable event payload view in their audit log.

We have gotten a lot of feedback that the information available in the audit log U/I is not the same as the data available in the audit log's exports, API and streaming payloads. In response, GitHub is adding a new expandable view of an event's payload in the audit log U/I. This brings data consistency to all the ways of consuming audit logs.

Enterprise and Organization owners interested in participating in the private beta should reach out to your GitHub account manager or contact our sales team to have this feature enabled. Make sure to let us know what you think using our beta feedback community discussion post.

Today's Changelog brings you an easy way to set base project permissions and tasklists improvements!

🧑🏻‍🤝‍🧑🏾 Set Base Permissions in Projects

Organization admins can now set default project permissions. Project admins can always update permissions on their projects, but by changing the base permission, organization admins can change the default between admin, read, write or no access upon project creation.

🐞 Tasklists Bug Fixes

Thanks to your continued feedback we continue to make improvements for our tasklist users week over week!

  • Fixed a bug in projects where navigating to an item in the tasklist, going back to the parent, then navigating back to the same item was resulting in a strange and broken display
  • Fixed a bug where interacting with meta-data edits on tasklists too quickly resulted in users being pushed to a nonsensical blank page
  • Fixed a bug where clicking on labels in tasklists sometimes changed their order
  • Fixed a bug related to converting issues where sometimes draft tasks were not displayed as an issue until after the page was refreshed
  • Fixed a bug where users were unable to make changes to item meta-data after dragging and dropping items in the tasklist
  • Fixed a bug where converting too many issues at once sometimes broke tasklists
  • Fixed a bug where dragging and dropping while the tasklist was syncing resulted in the drag and drop not being registered
  • Fixed a bug where changing meta-data while converting an issue made the meta-data not reflect on the tasklist
  • Fixed a bug where pressing ESC when changing metadata resulted in weird UI

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Improved speed on copy and paste behavior in the table view
  • Fixed omnibar margins and positioning in the roadmap layout
  • Workflow save button validation check now works without needing to refresh the page
  • Fixed several filter bar bugs
    • Clicking on the assignee icon no longer removes the assignee:@me filter
    • Clicking on milestones with a no longer ? depopulates the filter
