2026.06.1 : Introducing Custom Sync

Custom Sync

Custom Sync mirrors tables from your existing PostgreSQL or MySQL database into NocoDB as read-only synced tables that stay up to date with their source, giving business teams a friendly interface over production data without migrations or export scripts. Pick the tables, fine-tune how each column maps to NocoDB field types, and refresh manually or on a schedule with full or incremental runs. Available on the Business plan and above, on both NocoDB Cloud and self-hosted deployments.

White-Label

White-Label rebrands your entire NocoDB deployment as your own product. Set your product name, logos, favicon, and brand colour from the new White Label tab in the Admin Panel, and the branding carries through the sign-in page, public forms, shared views, and transactional emails. Available as an add-on for Enterprise customers on self-hosted deployments; reach out to the support team (support@nocodb.com) to enable it.

SQL Server Support

Microsoft SQL Server joins PostgreSQL and MySQL as a connectable database in NocoDB. Connect it as an external data source and work with it through grids, views, and fields, or use it as a Custom Sync source to mirror tables into your base. Available as an add-on for Enterprise customers; reach out to the support team (support@nocodb.com) to enable it.

Scale Plan on NocoDB Cloud

Scale is a new NocoDB Cloud plan between Business and Enterprise, bringing governance features to a self-serve plan. It unlocks unlimited workspaces, Row-Level Security, workspace audit logs, and trash retention settings, plus substantially higher limits across records, storage, API calls, automation runs, and retention.

Improvements & Fixes

• Real-time collaboration in NocoDocs. Multiple people can now edit the same page at once: named cursors, presence avatars, automatic conflict-free merging, and offline edits that reconcile on reconnect. Learn more →
• Turn text into linked records. Convert a Single line text field into a Links field; cell values are matched to related records by display value, conversions work in both directions and are undoable, and file imports can now map columns directly to Links fields.
• Calendar 3 Days view. A new layout between Day and Week keeps the next few days in one focused frame, with records ordered by scheduled time and drag-and-drop rescheduling.
• Web bookmarks in NocoDocs. A new /web bookmark block turns any link into a rich visual card with the page's title, description, and preview image. Learn more →
• Much faster form building on large forms. Editing forms with 100+ fields is dramatically smoother: switching between fields dropped from roughly 550ms to 40ms, and typing latency fell from roughly 380ms to 90ms.
• Grid views remember where you left off. Returning to a view restores your previous scroll position instead of jumping back to the top.
• Select up to 1,000 rows at once. The multi-cell selection limit for copy, paste, and fill operations was raised from 100 to 1,000 rows.
• Unlimited filters on paid plans. The 50-filter cap per view, which also limited form field conditions, is removed on all paid NocoDB Cloud plans.
• Text filters now default to "is like". New filters on text, email, URL, and phone fields start with a contains-style match instead of an exact match.
• On this page navigation in NocoDocs. A subtle heading rail in the page margin shows your position; hover to open the outline and jump to any heading. Works on shared documents too.
• Cover image repositioning and fullscreen images in NocoDocs. Drag cover banners to reframe them, and open document images in a fullscreen carousel.
• Safer sync deletion. Deleting a sync now asks whether to convert the synced tables into plain editable tables or delete them along with the sync.
• Hide blank fields catches empty links. The expanded record's hide-blank toggle now also hides Links fields with no linked records.
• Copying URL formulas keeps the link. Copying a formula cell that produces a link now pastes as a usable link instead of raw formula syntax.
• Lookup attachment downloads fixed. Attachments surfaced through Lookup fields download reliably again, and nested lookups render as a proper attachment strip.
• Filter values are no longer truncated. Editing a filter with many selected options no longer silently drops values beyond 255 characters.
• Import progress survives a refresh. Background jobs such as imports keep reporting progress after you reload the page.
• Photos display the right way up. Attachment thumbnails now respect EXIF orientation, so portrait photos no longer render sideways.
• Smoother SSO sign-in. Signing in through SSO no longer occasionally logs you straight back out.

Security

• Row-Level Security now applies to base owners. Previously, base owners saw all records regardless of RLS policies. Owners are now filtered like every other role on all data queries, while policy management remains owner-only. If your workflows relied on owners seeing everything, review your policies after upgrading.
• Hardened publicly shared content. Shared bases no longer expose audit information, shared view requests can no longer reference hidden fields through filters or aggregations, and form redirect URLs are strictly validated.
• CSV exports protect against spreadsheet formula injection. Exported values that could be interpreted as formulas by spreadsheet applications are now escaped.
• Stronger safeguards for external database connections. Connection details are validated at connect time, and API responses no longer include sensitive account material.

Self-Hosting

• Leaner, cleaner Docker images. Published images were rebuilt to remediate all known critical and high severity dependency vulnerabilities, and the on-prem image is roughly half its previous size.
• Revamped installer and compose examples. The install script was overhauled and the Docker Compose examples reorganized, with new quickstart, Traefik custom-SSL, private-CA PostgreSQL, and managed-PostgreSQL examples.
• New configuration options. NC_DOCS_REALTIME=false disables the new document collaboration layer, NC_GRID_MAX_SELECTION_LIMIT tunes the grid selection cap, and NC_DISABLE_DB_SSL_FILE_PATHS=true rejects file-path SSL certificate references in external database connections.
• Better multi-node efficiency. Redis pub/sub connections are now multiplexed through a single listener, reducing overhead on busy multi-instance deployments.

Availability

Deprecation Notice

This is the last release to ship pre-built executables. Executables are deprecated and will no longer be published from the next release onwards. If you currently run NocoDB from an executable, switch to Docker or another supported installation method to keep receiving updates.
