Overview
Rundeck/Runbook Automation 5.17 is here! Check out the new features and enhancements for PagerDuty Runbook Automation and Rundeck Community included in this release. This release introduces several key enhancements to Rundeck’s automation and runner management capabilities, including:
Enhanced Runner Management
We've made several key improvements to Enterprise Runner creation and management workflows. The create runner endpoint now validates the assigned Projects property format, ensuring more reliable runner assignments and reducing configuration errors. Default Runner Replica types are automatically set to manual when not specified, simplifying API requests and reducing the complexity of runner deployment.
Beta: OpenAPI Specification
We've introduced a new method for viewing our API documentation. The OpenAPI specification file is now automatically generated from our code base, helping ensure documentation remains current and accurate as we continue to evolve the platform. As this feature is still in beta, we're continuing to refine the official spec file over the next few releases.
